A special announcement - celebration in store!
Read on - big excitement today!
Dear Friends!
Alumni Friday on Tuesday! Yes!
Today is my 50th birthday! A HUGE milestone to celebrate alumni!! Not only is it #AlumniAugust (well done Cultural Vistas for this campaign!!) it's time.
Yes, it's time!
I am beyond thrilled to announce officially first to you, wonderful Alumni Friday friends - The Alumni Way second edition is coming out 30th March 2027!! Yes! And with this new edition is not only the Foreword from the fabulous J Kelly Hoey, networking expert and author of The Social Billionaire, there is an energetic Afterword from networker extraordinaire and TEDx speaker Paul Nazareth!
Since publishing The Alumni Way in 2021 by the fabulous Policy Press, celebrating 30 years, so much has changed in the world, the COVID pandemic is behind us, AI is in front of us and the way to connect alumni is constantly changing around the world. The Alumni Way Second Edition is a recalibration: new cases, new ideas, new exercises and a special Career Corner for career transition and development programs. This edition promises to re-energize your love for alumni and alumni potential!
There is no official website or pre-order yet, just the time to celebrate big milestones - that's my plan.
Join me! Spread the word of The Alumni Way. Let's get a new cohort of students, alumni, alumni-facing professionals inspired by alumni connection.
After my week of 50th fun (yes, I am taking a WEEK, this only happens once!) I would love to hear from you! Can I support inspire your alumni team? Happy to explore with you after the 15th of August!
(And if you would be interested in reviewing an early copy of The Alumni Way Second Edition for an in-book endorsement, hit reply, I will be selecting this group with my publisher over the coming month!)
In the meantime let's all celebrate the second life of The Alumni Way - time to get on the road!!
Yours with alumni celebration and love,
Maria
