Libraries are places of possibility...

We don't keep libraries open so we have a place to put books. We keep them open to keep our communities options open, to open our souls to learning and discovery, to open our minds to the possibilities that lie ahead for us, no matter what our financial, emotional or real situation is.

We keep libraries open to save our souls. There's no price on that.

Employee Engagement Conference Speaker

I have been invited to speak at a few conferences this year.
The first one, run by Marcus Evans, is: "Internal Branding and Employee Engagement" which happens this week in Toronto at the Fairmount Royal York Hotel: April 14 & 15.
I am quite looking forward to learning tons from this event and sharing what I've learned already about making the transition to a new Internal Communications platform to engage employees.

Two-thousand and eleven

The only time I ever have to write out numbers is when I write cheques, but I can't remember the last time I wrote a cheque. With online banking, pre-authorized payments, direct payroll deposits and automated transfers, I rarely write cheques or SEE money.

This new year brings with it a swell of opportunity for change, progress and growth. I don't plan to see more money, but I plan to earn more.

I'm contemplating new opportunities both as entrepreneur and as employee, and the view looks great!
