How do we get started?

Google the people at Catiie
that impress you
Read their blogs
Check out their web sites
Follow them on twitter
Listen to their conversations

Reflect on your own
professional development
keep a journal
record a captain’s log
consider blogging
consider tweeting

Build a network of valuable
professionals
look at who they’re looking at
expand and curate
keep it manageable
