Note from Beth: I first learned about this project last year, when Shiree Teng, the project leader, interviewed me as part of some research on capacity building consultants that lead to the design of ImpactRising. When I graduated, I was shocked to find out that Dan had forgiven all my school loans. I think he’d be proud.

David Armano likes to talk about how Twitter can strengthen loose ties (two people who are connected on social networks, but don't know each other in real life or very well). Some of the maps in the workshop were created with social analysis mapping software. (See this map from Malina ). Hubs look like starbursts on the visualization.

I interviewed Steven on my podcast, Smart Communications Podcast, about his book. And one of the things that often occurs to me about mindshare that I think we lose sight of in nonprofits is that mindshare has a shelf life. By “finite” what I mean is they have a short shelf life. How much is it front of mind for me?

Everyone is entitled to art in their life. Yet, the art world does not reflect that.
