How to Make the Best Decisions
By Jane Herman
"The best decisions are made from information and logic."
Do you believe that? Is it a fact? What if it were just an assumption? What if you had the option to change this assumption or at least add new assumptions to the mix? How would it affect your ability to make better decisions in the future?
We all operate on a set of beliefs that drive how we think and act. We believe "X" to be true so we do "Y." But many times the things that we believe are not absolute facts - they are simply assumptions - and as long as they remain unquestioned they limit our options.

Upcoming Network Events
"At a recent WITI Boston event, I met a former client from 10 years ago when I worked for another company. We sat together at the meeting and got re-acquainted. Since then, my former client has introduced me to several IT executives at their firm to generate interest in our services, which may lead to new business. This demonstrates that networking and participating in WITI events can have very positive results...both professionally and personally."
