Shuffling to Buffalo
SteveToday I have the great honor of presenting at the Buffalo-Niagara Human Resource Organization's annual event, HR Strategies on the Road to Recovery.
My session is about collaboration tools and technologies, what they are, how they can be applied in organizations to foster increased innovation, and how HR leaders and professionals might go about assessing and deploying these kinds of technologies.
I also have lots of unrelated images in my slides, and a dorky but neat 'Star Wars' effect on one of them.
I sent out a few tweets in the last couple of weeks about the event, mainly to try and discover if anyone in my extended network would be there today, and I was met with silence. So either I am not that popular in Buffalo (likely), or the Greater Buffalo community is not all that dialed in to Twitter (probably), or the community there is passively ignoring me, (possibly).
At any rate, I have embedded the presentation below, apologies in advance for the crude nature of the design, pretty soon I am going to just start doing these 'Jimmy The Greek' style.
If you do see me in Buffalo be sure to say hello.

Well from my perspective, there's at least one person in Buffalo (me) who thinks you are great and would not passively ignore you! I do belive you could be correct that most of the Greater Buffalo area is just not dialed into Twitter...
I am tied up in an all-week management develop session so will not be in attendance...but I'm sure your presentation will be great. Good luck!

"Star Wars" effects are not necessarily dorky, but I can tell you from personal experience they don't always work! I presume you are spending all day with the Buffalo group, or else you'll have to speed talk your way through your fine looking presentation. Best of luck.
@Jenny - thanks so much - I wished I could have seen you in Buffalo. Everyone was great and really receptive and interested. And we had wings at lunch!
@Bill - Thanks Bill - the Star Wars effect actually went over pretty well!
a good one
