Social Responsibility - YOUR Time has Come

I've been barraged lately, in a quiet way, regarding Social Responsibility.
This is good and will make our society a better place to live and work.

Monster.com has beefed up marketing and PR specifically focused on Goodwill & Social Responsibility.
On Linked In, recommendations appeal directly to our sense of Social Responsibility.
Just this morning, a Biz Conference Panelist reminded us to help struggling friends & colleagues to stay upbeat and well networked.
The Presenter at a SHRM function (Society of Human Resource Managers) I attended last month focused exclusively on the "push down" requirements of Corporate Social Responsibility to small and mid-sized Companies.

All kidding aside, let's go President Obama...
