An Ending – and a Beginning

An Ending – and a Beginning

I went back to school at this late stage in the game for a reason.  I wanted to get my Community-building message out into the world in the most effective way possible which would prove challenging with only a bachelor’s degree.  When I learned I could earn a Masters of Organizational Management degree at Crandall University (in town) in less than two years, the decision to apply was a no-brainer.

I had no idea how much work was involved in getting a Master’s degree; I had no idea how much I would learn about Community, about the world, about the evolution of Community in tandem with the human race; I had no idea that my classmates would have such a profound impact on my education.

I have plenty of ideas now, thanks to an excellent program, one that helped me to combine what I knew about the Community-building framework with the frameworks of organizational culture and shaped my passion for Community building into a business model.

In the last month of my program, I took on 3 Research & Development projects, working for free in exchange for feedback, testimonials, and (hopefully good) referrals.

I am now offering my Community-building services to organizations/groups globally that want to communicate better, feel more connected, know and understand one another at a more foundational level and successfully grow as an effective organization because of this powerful foundation.  Yes, globally.  One of my R & D projects is happening completely online!  I now know I can do this work with groups anywhere in the world! 

Learn more about what I do, and contact me if you would like to see how I can be of service to your organization.
