Your organization has hidden IT superstars in the making — both within and outside IT. I am excited to team up with other technology leaders to share our thoughts and advice in this new feature in @CIOonline cio.com/article/481293/7-way…
Every IT organization has hidden experts. These individuals, possessing extraordinary talents, help their teams reach new levels of innovation, planning, productivity, and efficiency. Discovering these unique individuals, and then elevating them to positions where they can achieve maximum effectiveness, is a skill that every CIO should learn.

The holiday season is a great time to consider #givingback. The @BGCA_Clubs changed my life and are continuing to change the lives of children across the country! Now through Dec. 31, @Kohls will match donations up to $1 million. bgca.org/get-involved/next-g… #donations
Help a child who needs you today. Today’s children are tomorrow’s leaders, innovators, and problem solvers, but too many won’t have what they need to succeed in the year ahead without your help. Now through Dec. 31, 2022, Kohl’s will match your donation to Boys & Girls Clubs of America, up to $1 million. That means double the meals, double the time with mentors and double the resources to put great futures within reach for every child.
