Storytelling - Sharing Stories that transformed our thinking
By Carolyn Leighton, Founder, Chairwoman, CEO of WITI
I have always loved to read. My love of reading started when I was in elementary school. My parents would not allow a television in our home until, when I was about 16, a couple of my brothers bought them one as a gift.
Until then, I spent countless hours reading at home and at the local library. I loved the librarians - they were kind, intelligent and helpful - just like my mother.

Lack of Time! Perception or Reality
By Diane Randall
We think we have no choices about how we spend our time. Technology that was supposed to make life easier has actually done the opposite and is eating away at our personal time. Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), computers, email, cell phones and pagers all compete for our attention. Electronic organizers and communication devices create an "on-call" work mentality that takes priority over personal responsibilities. Lack of time is more perception than reality.

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."
