There are many ways to learn new business tricks, philosophies, and strategies.  This can be done through networking and exchanging ideas with other business professionals.  But it can also be done while you work or even putter by listening to online webinars and seminars.

If you are interested in opening up your mind to other business approaches, here are three resources to get you started:

• GlobalTeleClass.com offers free online professional (and personal) development seminars.
• 101 iTunes Feeds to Boost Your Business Savvy:  The list includes everything business from ethics and law to management and financial matters. Listen to business lectures from Yale, Cambridge, Duke, Standford, UCLA, and other top-notch educational facilities.
• Free Google Training and Information Seminars: Register to take a variety of Google’s free business courses and online presentations in their “Do More With Less” series.
