In the winter of 2006, I experienced a change that impacted my career and I, like so many of my colleagues, unexpectedly found myself alone and vulnerable. The change for me came in the form of a new boss, who within minutes of meeting me, looked at me and said "I don't hear a lot about Ed Evarts in this organization." Until this time, I considered myself a well-performing, highly regarded contributor in my organization. I had received "exceeds expectations" performance appraisals. I was well known and I thought I had a great reputation. People liked me! During my time in transition, I quickly discovered that networking was no longer enough.
