- I loan because:
- As an entrepreneur myself, I respect the courage of these borrowers and the challenges they face. I am also deeply grateful for all the benefits, opportunities, and assistance I've received in my own life. This is a wonderful way to pass some of that along to others.
- About me:
- People in business and organizations hold a lot of meetings, and spend a lot of time, money and energy doing it. However, they often don't remember them very well afterward. My job is to listen very carefully during a meeting, and to capture what's important. So, while it's all happening, I am creating a wall-sized mural that's a colorful combination of words and images. Later, people use the mural and smaller re-prints to remember, discuss, and share what happened. The murals also go into slide shows, newsletters, and onto websites--the whole point is to make better use of the meeting! My biggest role though, is to LISTEN...most people don't do that very well!
