  • Thanks for everyone’s feedback from the January presentation! I appreciate the input. I’ll continue to refine the presentation….Long before the arctic air surrounds the room and shortly after the New Year celebration confetti falls to the ground, I have always found it beneficial to review, renew and refresh my “contacts”. My “neural” network of friends, family and business associates. Along side this imitative, I seek to review my knowledge skills as assess my continual and on-going desire to learn. The first of the year provides a way to “jump” start these initiatives before the year slips away. I’ll be sharing my “Leverage your Skills and your Network” during an upcoming North Dallas Catholic Connections Business Networking lunch. Join us January 16, at 12:00 Noon at 12Cuts in North Dallas. Hope to see you there.
