Anyone planning an open source project this year? how are you going to secure the open source components in your software? tell us your story!

Last night, I finished the book “The Boys in the Boat“. The book is about how a group of young men, from the University of Washington, overcame tremendous odds, to go on to win the 1936 US Olympics in Berlin. What resonated with me, is the importance of finding & capitalizing on the strengths and opportunities with your crew in Your boat. When this is done “ you will feel the power at work… that is far beyond anything… ever imagined.” It was the diversity of the team, and how they capitalized on their diversity, that brought them to represent the US in the Olympics. The book describes “great crews are carefully balanced blends of people, where each teammate must adjust to the needs, and capabilities of others, in order to optimize the overall benefit of the boat. Capitalizing on a crew’s diversity is perhaps more important when it comes to the characters of each crew person. Good crews are good blends of personalities, someone to lead the charge, someone to hold something in reserve, someone to pick a fight and someone to make peace, someone to think things through, someone to charge ahead, without thinking, and individuals must recognize their place in the fabric of the crew, accept it, and accept the others as they are.” The book left me thinking about how am I capitalizing on the strengths and opportunities with the crew in my boat? It’s a great thought to start the new year!

"Can you feel it? It's that time of the year. A new chapter is about to be written. And things are starting to change. Jerseys get traded in for jackets. Download become upgrades. And fans feel like patrons. The past and the future play out right in front of us. And the whole world starts seeing green. Because April...is right around the corner. And spring is in the air. This isn't just golf. This is The Masters." I love this brand video for The Masters. At a time when the pro golf landscape is highly fractured and most tournaments are indistinguishable from the one the week before, the Majors have become even more elevated, and the Masters kicks this off every year. They are really leaning in to that this year, positioning the tournament as something that sits above the sport itself: more of a cultural moment that marks the arrival of spring and the REAL start of the golf season. I love how they manage to weave together the history of the event with innovation (the Masters app is widely hailed as the best in all of sport), along with recognition of different types of fan and different ways of watching. Basically the message is "Even if you don't usually watch golf, this event is different, and it's for you." There are many parallels with Wimbledon here, and I can't think of too many other sporting events that have a clearer brand positioning, and do a better job of reinforcing (and evolving) that year after year. #TheMasters #sportsmarketing #positioning

As we celebrate our #TEXASRANGERS #2023WORLDCHAMPIONS ⚾🏆👏...This incredible achievement got me thinking about the POWER OF SMALL WINS. Behind this monumental success lie countless small victories that led to the ultimate goal. And guess what? The same principle applies to your business too! Hard work, dedication, consistency, and acknowledging those small wins along the way are essential ingredients for achieving your BIG GOALS. It's easy to get caught up in the grand vision and overlook the progress made daily. But it's those little wins that pave the path to greatness. So, take a moment to celebrate every milestone, no matter how small. These small victories build momentum and keep your business moving forward. Remember, success is not an overnight phenomenon. Just like our TEXAS RANGERS, it took one win at a time to earn the #WorldChampionship title! #DigitalMarketing #restaurantmarketing #MeasuringData #EnvisionWorksMarketing #EnvisionWorks #marketingResults

THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX IS BROKEN AND NOT WORKING FOR AMERICAN TAXPAYERS Veteran Housing Corp would ask every TAXPAYER to demand and get answers from their elected and appointed government officials the below questions as they relate to any affordable, workforce, or supportive housing project in your community! 1. How much local, state, and federal funding, tax credits, or other government benefits or incentives did the project receive? 2. What is the affordability period for each project? Is the affordability period permanent and in perpetuity? 3. What guarantees exist have your local, state, and federal government officials obtained in writing that rents will not go up or that tenants will not be displaced or evicted after the "affordability period expires? Every local, state, and federal housing authority and affordable or workforce housing stakeholder should adopt the State of Vermont's "permanent affordability" policy as a model for all future government funded or subsidized housing projects or developments, no exceptions! https://lnkd.in/eFEUC8c8 Additionally, local, state and federal housing agencies should look to the Helsinki, FINLAND MODEL of ending homelessness by providing affordable housing for all 'It’s a miracle': Helsinki's radical solution to homelessness https://lnkd.in/er9HZSQU Even the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development AGREES THAT adopting FINLAND'S MODEL OF ERADICATING HOMELESSNESS may be of great value to resolving the affordable housing and homelessness crises in America https://lnkd.in/gkSZWYRU
