I toyed with the idea of doing another cast on Reputation, addressing what to do if your reputation was damaged. It appears it won’t be necessary. Linda Bustos of GetElastic wrote that exact article, guest writing at InvespBlog.
Her article titled, Common Reputation Management Issues and How to Address Them, covers the material in depth. She discusses online tracking, online rebutals, and other methods to manage your reputation.
Reading Linda’s article makes me to believe we are on the same page with the management issue. If you remember from the podcast, I said you can’t manage your reputation because of its definition. Your reputation is what someone else thinks about you, which can be out of your control. What you can do is influence your reputation by offering a positive choice, which is exactly what Linda advises.

Thanks for the tips and insights. Your personal reputation is as important as anything else essential to you.
Once lost or damaged, its hard to return it to status quo.

That’s right. Hard, but not impossible. The climb back is very difficult.
