#introduction #Broadband consulting is my main gig. I've also been working on a "slo-mo" #talent and #workforce #planning SaaS startup for several years. My real concern and big interest is how to maximize the benefits of #networks for people. The key to achieving this is a more holistic, integrated approach to community, economic, and workforce development. The challenge is that most business executives and civic leaders simply don't have the basic knowledge, mental models, and practices to achieve this. So I'm tapping my experience as an educator and updating my knowledge of media to tackle this challenge.
