New E-Board!

The new Executive Board members are updated on the "Officers" page. After Beth helped me translate the code, of course :o). I feel like I'm in The Matrix when one guy was talking about the code and how he just sees "blonde, brunette, redhead..." instead of the falling green numbers. I kind of understand it, but HTML is a language, and not an easy one at that. I have a lot to learn I see...

Anyway, check out the officers page to get to know your Board members. Pictures will be up soon!

WiB International

Hey fellow WiBers! I recently had the opportunity to experience a WiB networking and speaker meeting in London hosted by the Chamber of Commerce. The speaker, Lindsay McKenna, was an amazingly unique woman who is interested in teaching teamwork and management by studying the way wild animals interact. In fact, did you know that a lioness in the middle of a hunt would not stop to kill a warthog because she is so focused on her goal?

Lindsay also is working on conservation methods and responsible farming in South Africa. She is an entrepreneur, mother, author and speaker. My editor saw the value of sharing this with business professionals and let me publish a full-page article about how such a strong woman was making her way in the world.

I was thrilled to be able to attend this WiB event and I wanted to let you know that woman all over the world are forming together to share experiences and help each other out. Go us!
