Tweet Late in 2009, Julien Smith’s fantastic approach to reading inspired me to set an ambitious target for this year: to read one book every two weeks throughout the year. I even published my target list of books so people could hold me to account. In fact, I’m on my 28th book of 2010. 26 books per year… how?

Surprisingly, though, it turned out not to be the first of his books I read this year. The good folks over at Wiley sent me a review copy of his latest book, Engage! Basics of listening, engagement and audience/influencer identification. If I had to offer one criticism, it would be that the book needs a good editor.

You know those books that you want to buy for everyone you know, because you know everyone will get something from it? Workarounds That Work (WTW) is one of those books. Things you can influence through other people. The book covers a broad series of challenges: Getting the right things done. Should you buy this book?

As I continue to work towards my challenge of reading 26 books in 2011 (an aside: I’m up to 18 right now – two ahead of schedule), I recently finished reading Michael Crichton’s book State Of Fear. You can do your best to influence it, but “my way or the highway&# is a myth.

If I let myself feel insulted every time I was exposed to advertising like this, I would need to book another appointment with a different kind of doctor, the kind that treat’s depression. Stories don’t push influence on us, they pull us into becoming influenced. But I won’t.

Create meetups to connect with influencers. While you may find that throwing a fan event at CES is tougher than at other events, the top tier of tech influencers is in town. Remember, most people will be triple-booked most nights so you need to stand out (and not just by throwing the biggest party).

Book meetings with people you want to meet well in advance. Decide on the topics you want to learn more about (for me: location-based marketing, influencer identification and marketing in streams – three key trends this year) and focus on them, both in the sessions and outside.
