		<description><![CDATA[The recently formed LinkedIn group for Trailing Spouse professionals has generated some interesting connections. Most recently, Bertrand Fouquoire, a fellow male trailing spouse located in France. I recently interviewed Bertrand and learned that he has been an expat in Saudi Arabia and Belgium, and a trailing spouse in the US, and currently on his way for another expat experience, once again as a trailing spouse to Singapore. This time with the project of developing coaching support to expats and spouses in France and Asia. Bertrand, like me is interested in assisting trailing spouses and other expat professionals in business and career aspects. He&#8217;s an HR professional with 20 years experience with large corporations and international deployments. He maintains a website whose aim is to help trailing spouses conciliate mobility and career. His website www.dualexpat.com is currently only in French, but a new version is being developed and will be available in English. Bertrand and I discussed his goals for dualexpat.com and some other thoughts on assisting trailing spouses and other expat professionals. Please have a listen and feel free to comment below. &#8211; Music for this podcast is from the &#8216;Walk in my dreams&#8217; album by Endo, from Lyon in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The popular business networking tool Linked In (www.LinkedIn.com) has recently approved the Trailing Spouse Network. If you are already a Linked In member or you are considering Linked In, you are invited to join the Trailing Spouse Network @ LinkedIn by clicking here&#8211;&#62; http://www.linkedin.com/e/gis/104868/236B280248B1 What is LinkedIn? LinkedIn is a networking site that enables people to build and manage (mostly) business connections in order to discover jobs, ventures, new clients, etc. Unlike typical social networking sites, its focus is business rather than social or entertainment. LinkedIn is emerging as a dominant networking environment for executives and professionals, and its development will be of interest as both an immensely practical tool and as a study of the social network phenomenon. Founded in 2003, LinkedIn crossed the chasm in 2007, as the company reports that thousands of people are joining per day. Today, it has more than 9 million members, and membership is very global. I&#8217;ve been a member since 2003 and have used it successfully to locate contacts for various business reasons. There&#8217;s a great independent review of LinkedIn features at The Global Human Capital Journal . We look forward to Linking In with you. &#8211; Jeff]]></description>
