Enterprise: A Lesson In Why Intros Are Important

Now that I have more free time I have been making sure to dedicate some of my daily and weekend schedule to my hobbies. Believe it or not, you need to schedule downtime for yourself when you are job hunting….

I now have a new job. Actually, I got it last month on June 18th. Guess who has been busy with training for the last month? I am now a Solutions Architect, and that freakin’ rocks like a van on…

Hmmm… Maybe I need help?

So a friend of mine is starting a GM consulting business (more of a hobby really, because he isn’t expecting to make much money and really just likes doing this sort of stuff), and I’m considering enlisting his services as he is a project manager in real life.
