Many thanks to @BeckiCulbert one of my first friends from early @Microsoft (M) days for inviting me to facilitate @swiftgroupmktg leadership team retreat last week! A work reunion of sorts since I saw another former M-colleague, Becki's co-founder, Julie Lumpkin! Ex-M's, unite!

Head of #communications for @PCC graced my @CommLead class w/her wisdom & wit & left a lasting impression:"Kate's examples of real strategic communication plans & getting to seeing what she had actually developed & delivered was fascinating & inspiring.” BIG thanks, Kate!

TQ @angi_ramos as 2nd @CommLead guest speaker for Strategic #Marketing Communication class I taught last term. A student said “Angi...shared her full career path & was very honest & fun about it all...She came across as a very smart, creative leader.” She's all that & more!

[Whitney Keyes @WhitneyKeyes]

My @UW @CommLead students + I benefited last term from wisdom of several guest speakers starting w/ @DanaVanNest. One student's feedback: "Dana's personal & professional story shed light on a consultant’s life...something we rarely hear about in class.” Thanks, Dana!

Taking time to reflect & learn something new about the history behind our #MartinLutherKingJrDay holiday. I always value the information & stories provided by media outlets big & small & was especially captivated by this @NBCNews piece: https://t.co/IUA68wIUj6

Already missing my students! Thanks to the @UW @CommLead program for the opportunity to teach strategic #marketing #communication to a fantastic group of people - and for everything the students shared with me throughout the course. #Learning is a two-way street!

BIG thanks to Matthew at Seattle Cap Hill @Walllgreens. He always works hard behind the scenes fulfilling print orders-stressful job this time of year. He placed envelopes on top to help straighten my fresh-off-the-press holiday cards. Thanks Matthew! Excellent #customerservice

Thank you @RichardEngel @NBCNightlyNews for excellent, responsible reporting of 200+ people (many kids) w/physical+intellectual challenges in Ukraine's Vilshany Orphanage. As war victims they're even more isolated & vulnerable. #Disabilities impact every race, age, gender, etc.
