Are You Swimming in the Wrong Pond?
By Jane Herman
When you look at fish it is obvious how affected they are by the health of their environment - the water they swim in. If they are swimming in a pond where the water is polluted, or the pond is choked with weeds, or where there are nasty predators waiting to eat them - their behavior will be desperate, furtive, and survival-focused.

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."
