Movin' On Up by Gretje Ferguson |
Big news this month! Steve Certa of Watch
All Pest And talk about Movin' On Up! Paige Stover Hague and the Ictus Companies (www.ictusinitiative.com/) have successfully transplanted themselves from their former digs in the Newton suburbs to a lush new space at the tip of the Boston Harbor. Since the first week of September the boxes have been unpacked and the furniture is now fully delivered (and assembled) at 343 Commercial St. Unit 214, Union Wharf, a spacious new office replete with an ocean view, roof-top deck, and modern conveniences. Sounds fabulous! And a follow-up to September's column: Paige tells us that Acanthus Publishing, a sister company of Ictus, has now released its first title, leadership guru Stever Robbins' It Takes a Lot More Than Attitude. To Lead a Stellar Organization. The book is the perfect reference for anybody in business, from middle managers to the topmost top dog, who want to provide inspirational leadership. Paula Harris, the co-owner of WH Cornerstone Investments of Duxbury, was published in the October edition of Women's Business Boston. The article, Complete Your Success With Philanthropy, focuses on creating a charitable giving strategy through donor-advised funds. An important topic! Please send your good news to me at Gretje@gfergphoto.com. We'd love to hear about your successes! |
Management (Connections by Linda Merrill |
New Year's Resolution: I will make sure to thank SSWBN members for the support they offer to me and my business. Whether it's for a lead, an order, a job well done, or even just an encouraging pat on the back, I will make sure that everyone knows how invaluable the network is and will send in my kudos to Linda Merrill for The Connections Column on a regular basis. (ok, now, repeat as often as needed!) Getting a jump on my resolutions, I would like to thank Sherry Alpert, Sherry Alpert Public Communications, for coming up with the idea of pitching my holiday decoration projects to the media, and, as a result, for the huge feature story that ran in The Patriot Ledger just this weekend. The perfect intersection of inspiration and timing! OK, now, SSWBN Networker Newsletter reader - your turn! See you in the New Year and Happy Holidays to all! Please send your Connections news to me, Linda Merrill at lindamerrill@chameleon-interiors.com Linda Merrill |
