Join us this month where we’ll discuss an app that creates a digital workspace. On the Bulletin Board, we’ll say good-bye to a Quality Lion and then we’ll find out what happens when you let sailors out of the box.
For Tools of the Trade we’ll review a book that makes the argument that stories are not just for bedtime any more. We’ve got a Special Request from a learner who asks how one fires one’s boss and Today’s Special is an interview with a master of innovation who once asked, “What would Santa do?” Find out the answers to these and other questions in the June episode at the Just-in-Time Cafe. We here at the cafe think it’s okay to add a little chocolate to your coffee as we head into summer proper. See you there!
