THE AMAZING ROS TAPESTRY – SPREADING THE WORD
May 30, 2010
FLASH ADVISORY BOARD in May
The newly-renamed Multi-Talent FLASH ADVISORY BOARD focussed on Ireland and New Ross in May. Together with six professionals from my network (including a British-Austrian documentary film-maker and the President of the Portuguese Association of Creativity and Innovation) I spent the weekend of 20th-22nd May in the town, as guests of the Board of THE ROS TAPESTRY.
FROM VAB TO FAB – Announcing a Change of Name
May 6, 2010
After some thought, research, and testing, I have decided to change the name of the multi-talent VAB (Virtual Advisory Board) to FAB (Flash Advisory Board).
The word ‘virtual’, meaning ‘online, Internet-based’, was somewhat misleading, as we all come together in one place rather than linking up on the Web. On the other hand, the word ‘flash’ (from ‘Flash Mob’: where a group assembles, performs a task or event together, and then disperses) seems more appropriate to what actually happens. As those who have already taken part will know, an invited group of professionals/experts from my network meet up at an agreed location to pool their creative thinking and offer solutions to a business-owner’s challenge.
So, from today (6th May, 2010) the multi-talent VAB becomes the FAB or Flash Advisory Board!
