For some, summer ends as kids head back to school.  For others, Labor Day marks the transition from summer back to renewed work efforts.   Some work consistently through the summer.  Our industry typically sees the summer as the period of greatest activity.  I was energized returning from the NAWIC Conference and enjoyed seeing the social media posts.  This is an important transition period for NAWIC.  National, regional, and chapter board members are being installed.  Fresh perspectives are being brought to the table.  I have full confidence that the idea of continuous improvement will be embraced. 

Can you personally adopt some of the same ideas?  Have you considered building your own personal Board of Directors?  You may think that you don’t need a BOD or can’t fully recognize the benefits.  Companies have a BOD to bring in outside perspectives, identify blind spots, and provide accountability.  All valuable elements of a personal Board of Directors.
