But that’s all about to change. You see, it’s reveal day. As she steps through her wall-sized “before” picture, the ...

  sacha chua :: enterprise 2.0 consultant, storyteller, geek — Authority: 129
  I misplace things when I get distracted. I absentmindedly tuck things into bag pockets or place them on the nearest horizontal surface.
