In a couple of days, technology professionals working in the non-profit sphere will gather at the Washington Hilton to deliberate issues, trends and the future of their trade. When these happens, I will be there, with my colleagues from other non-profit institutions from all over the world. My personal goals are as follows:
Maximizing Social Networks

Thoughts on Projects and Project Management (I): Document all things
I am writing this, first as a note to myself and then to others. I work in an environment where there are several activities best grouped as projects.

Reasons I will wait for the Playbook!
I love technology – especially if viewed from the lens “technology makes life easier”. But, in my acquisitions, I have always had one guiding principle, ‘juice out the maximum benefit per dollar invested!’ For this reason, I am not always the first of all people to buy new techs, though usually, I am the first […]
