With thanks to Hildy Gotlieb, I’d like to share this wonderful video. A good reminder to everyone who writes in the nonprofit arena.

    I like it!

    There’s a lot to be said for that old adage – KISS – keep it simple stupid!

    I’m reminded of something I read once about communication being a two way process that was only completed when the other person understood what it was I was trying to say.

    Life is tough enough for those in the non-profit world without creating additional difficulties for themselves – this video is a good reminder of that.
