Introduction

Dear Fissure Friends,

 

I don't know about you, but I am ready for the elections to be over. And not just the presidential elections, but every single one where the candidates and their "messages" have evolved into negative campaigning. A core value and guiding principle of Fissure is to "look for what is right and positive" and find improvement in what would be ideal, not in fixing what is wrong. Our simulations and workshops are based on the view that "mistakes" are opportunities for learning, not opportunities for someone to try to make themselves feel or look better by making someone else feel less.

 

I feel very fortunate to tell you that we managed to coax Ed Tilford, Sr., my mentor and partner out of retirement long enough to contribute an article only Ed could write. Ed talks about why "believing is seeing", so you will have to read the article to find out why that makes sense. By some strange twist of coincidence, Geof Lory's article is another common sense approach to project management and parenting where he explains why "C-ing is Believing".

 

Our upcoming public workshops are in the left hand panel - our computer simulation based workshops are an effective and fun way to learn AND EARN PDUs. Make sure you also check out what's happening at Fissure (Fissure News).

 

Thanks for reading and have a great day,

 

Jesse Freese

Fissure, President
