I spent this week in Georgia — first, attending the Dynamic Communicators Workshops and then visiting the AIM office for a dream-building workshop.
I've been guest-posting about the experience on the DCW blog and shared on this blog some of my takeaways from the conference yesterday (including a list of links to four guest posts from this week).
Given the busyness of the week, I didn't get a chance to read as much as I usually do, but here's what I got my hands on this week:
