Dunrie Greiling Ph.D., Ann Arbor, MI 48105
Last Friday morning, Robert Pasick, Ph.D., and I spoke at Leaders Connect, a networking event at Zingerman’s Roadhouse in Ann Arbor. Our topic was “Ten Steps to Meaningful Goals for 2017,” based on our recent book Self-Aware: A Guide for Success in Work and Life.
If you’re interested, you can watch the entire hour-plus of video on YouTube here.
I thought I’d share a quick video excerpt here, about three minutes of Rob and I chatting about how we collaborated on the book.
Ever wanted to know how to renovate your home the green way? For the DIY earth friendly homeowner, the folks at Greenovation.TV want to show you how. It’s a website and a media channel, launching Earth Day April 22.
They’re available online 24/7. What’s even cooler is they’re local here in Ann Arbor, in my neighborhood!
Greenovation.TV‘s Matt Grocoff will speak on “greening a historic home” at 7:30 on April 23 in the Bach School multi-purpose room. Matt reports that he pays in a year what many pay a month for utility costs since doing some updates to their Old West Side Ann Arbor home. I wish I could make it, but I will be traveling that day. I look forward to tuning into the channel as it grows!
You can find out more in Concentrate’s feature article on GreenovationTV.
So, just the other day, with some of my Michigan Usability Professionals Folks, I was wondering about local social media folks that I hadn’t yet met. You know, wondering about who might be good speakers to invite to talk to us, that kind of thing.
I didn’t even tweet it, though I should have. But, I did find, in my inbox this morning, a twitter notification from, of all things, Podcamp Michigan. Ask and ye shall receive. Or, in this case, “receive even though the ask was inchoate and unarticulated.”
A podcamp is an unConference focused on blogging, podcasting, and social media. Should be fun. I’m planning to attend. You?

Jointly with the mother of the bride, I hosted a bridal shower for a friend this Saturday. The bride’s mom called me from New York and said she wanted to throw a party, but needed “support on the ground”. So, I agreed to pull together a guest list and host.
I had a lot of fun picking out and picking up the party food. I stopped at 4 stores, 3 of which were in walking distance of my home. Technically the 4th (Busch’s on South Main Street) was also in walking distance, but I didn’t leave enough time for the trip. Here’s the menu:
What fun to spend a beautiful spring day walking through the neighborhood to gather treats for the party!
We had a wonderful conference. The Internet User Experience photo pool on Flickr has lots of action shots of sessions, presentations, and networking.
