Does Blogging Success Make You a Pariah in the Office?

There is a wonderful commercial that Holiday Inn put out last March about blogging. Dave Winer referenced it yesterday and as I tend to do, I put it in a real estate agents perspective.

Blogging is a wonderful tool to get your name and face out in the world as an expert. And the speed that you will go from being one of the guys (or gals) to an industry expert can at times be amazingly fast. But this success for your peers can be disconcerting.

They will still think of you “as you” while the world will perceive that you are so much more. And they will be confused on how by writing “your blog” you have leapfrogged over them to be an industry leader. This commercial by Holiday Inn captures it perfectly.

Now my question to you is, are you ready to be an industry leader?
