You can impact our future. Share your knowledge. Speak to our next generation at the Student/Industry Conference. Or speak to your peers at the Agile Summit. The Call for Speakers is open.
Are you too busy in the office? Then make your impact in another way. Participate in a local crowd funding investment. For example, my friend Perry The Inventor has more patents than anyone else I know. He has another successful product on the way, have you seen his Kickstarter?
All too often I hear people say, “I’ve been heads-down busy at work for so many years, I’ve lost my network.”. Lift your head high. Participate – contribute to your community.
