Vison and Diversity in Business

Our next LPG meeting is a vision re-alignment meeting in which we will get everyone to review, re-think and voice what we want to get out of LPG. Donna will moderate the brainstorming session. You might think of this meeting as practicing Habit 2: Begin with the End In Mind.


Here is a link to our existing LPG program as background to the meeting.

Look forward to seeing everyone there.

More Sharpening the Saw Examples:

Last Saturday a number of LPGers got to do more networking with what the community has to offer. A number of us attended Rochester Area Chamber of Commerce's Diversity in Business Conference. sponsored by Think, Rochester Area Foundation, Merrill Lynch, Rochester Women and IBM, among others.

Not only did we get to hear great presentations on things like how to start a business, how to finance your business, we also got to network with many resources and people who can help us explore different business ideas and to make progress to persue our own plans.

Out of the conference, I myself got more inspired to move forward and so did a number of friends who really got a jumpstart to do more toward their dreams. We even start to talk about starting a "mind-mapping" group for like-minded folks to motivate and help each other to flesh out our business ideas and to push each other to keep moving forward.

An event like that is clearly an example of Sharpening You Saw in the social dimension and has the potential to spring more ideas and actions.
