We commissioned new collaborative artwork. The facilitation was as chaotic and fragile as a spiderweb. The lessons I learned from Lost Childhoods are at the heart of the OF/BY/FOR ALL project we're building now. We'd love to see this model evolve and grow. There were over 100 partners. There were trust issues.

In my case, I'll be talking about some of my hard-learned lessons of not having a well-defined personal brand in social media when I first started out way back in 2002 and how that has carried over to the work side of my life. Bringing multiple communication channels in to a contact-centered model. It's the new shiny.

That’s the complicated part of social change - complicated problems call for complicated solutions, even when our business models force us to focus on one simple arena. In January 2011, at a gathering hosted by TechSoup Global, we began talking about how to model our own ideals. Of course, collaboration is tough work.

I think that government really should facilitate an environment that nurtures business development, and then get out of the way.
