Practicing what you Preach!!

Since my return to the downtown business community and re-immersion in the lexicon of today's business practices, I found myself struck by the clarity of my own suggestion at the recent ITA Outsourcing Roundtable.

Led by our faithful shepherd Dimatar we were discussing various ways of adding value to the Outsourcing Roundtable. Increasing subscribers, and better educating American Business icons as to the benefits of outsourcing were deemed worthwhile goals.

We also are structuring new ways to assist each other in spreading the gospel of Outsourcing, Lou Dobbs be damned.

But then the idea surfaced after the group acknowledged some of the difficulty with putting words to Blog, and I described my own experience as Blog Fright. As a first timer I found I had relatively little to say on the subject without feeling like a ton of research was in order. ( I am a bit old school) But then it occurred to me. Perhaps the infamous email from Maritz to Valentine at Microsoft came into play. I decided I was going to " eat my own dogfood", and outsource the writing. Now it seems like a fairly mundane task to most of the savvy users out there but a Micro lesson was learned and I look forward to finding more articles and research that support the core mission of the ITA's Outsourcing Roundtable.

As soon as someone points out what exactly that is..
