We're Moving!

For all you wonderful people who have bookmarked or follow my Just A Minute blog postings, we're changing locations.

With the launch of parentehrgroup.com, the link you'll need to see new JAM posts is now http://parentehrgroup.com/justaminute/.

Thanks for being a treasured companion on the journey - looking forward to you joining me at the new site!

What you'll see at the new website:

 

Tools of the Trade: Back on the (Key)Boards

For a variety of reasons (and no judgments about them), getting the website for Parente HRG has taken much longer than I anticipated.

It became clear about a month ago that my hopes to have the site completed by an outside vendor had pretty much ground to a halt.  Again, no judgments here.  That's not what this post is about.

So, where am I taking you on this journey?  It's about how I reclaimed skills I had let slip away over the past 5+ years.

Over time, we add and remove certain tools from our skills toolbelts as a matter of practicality.  There is just so much time in the day, just so much opportunity to continue our expertise in certain areas.  In my case, I've continued to grow my knowledge and add certifications, the most recent being Intentional Leadership Coaching and certification to administer and interpret the EQ-i 2.0.  What did I remove from my toolbelt?  I stopped staying current on what some call "that computer stuff."

Armed with a couple of new books from my local Barnes and Noble (picture me singing, "Where have all the bookstores gone?"), I jumped back into the web design pool yesterday.  My skills?  They're more in line with how retired Yankees must feel taking the field for the Old Timers' Day game each summer.  Still, it feels great to be a techie once more ... the keyboard jockey rides again. :-)

The website is nothing fancy, but it does what it needs to.  Finally, at long last, parentehrgroup.com is up and running!
