Hello, everyone!

I currently manage projects for a firm in Kansas City and I credit most of my recent career successes to my Weinberg & Weinberg CHANGE SHOP experience. It was truly a life-changing event for me, which began with my being greeted as I departed the plane by my husband, who was scared to death when he saw me because he said that I had changed (Previously, he didn't know anything about the subject of the workshop). He said he could see the change in my face and in my bearing. Following the rockiest two weeks of my 21-year marriage (major reentry), our marriage is better than ever and I am very happy with my career.

My department within the company is currently experiencing yet another reorganization, a Voluntary Reduction in Force, and an outright RIF if the targeted number of people don't leave in the VRIF. I mentioned this because Change Shop gave me very wonderful tools with which to deal with this Chaos.

I'm really looking forward to AYE in order to continue to grow myself as an individual and as a Project Manager.

I would love to hear from any of my old "classmates" from either Change Shop or PSL. I've lost touch with many through mostly my own fault -- being too busy or from our wonderful e-mail purge process or through constant changing of my work e-mail address. My current address is [email protected].

Looking forward to meeting new people and seeing some old friends at AYE 2001!

Hi, Melody. Well, from your Change Shop, I'll be there, and Jean, and Dani, and several of our PSL instructors. Rainer might be there - see his photos on this wiki from last year. Who else might show up, you never know until it's time. JerryWeinberg

Melody, I'm so pleased you'll be at AYE. Even though we've talked since Change Shop, it's not the same as being in the same room at the same time. And, I think this time I can avoid being Typhoid Mary, and making everyone diseased. JohannaRothman

Hi, Melody. It's a voice from your past. I'm looking forward to seeing you at the conference. It's been a long time. EileenStrider
