What will it take for you?

Finding out what others need can be tricky. Especially when you have some skills in some of the areas. I have found it difficult to separate myself from a possible solution when dealing with consulting firms. My initial objective is to define all of the things that they believe that they need order to love what they do. Believing that I know that they need some help connecting fully with their staff and also are in need of additional technical support from a senior I continue to confuse the matter. I am also finding myself confusing the heck out of them too. Now it is not to say that I might actually be a part of the solution, but at least initially, it is simply a conversation around what they need. What I do is connect with people, have powerful conversations about right where they are at, determine if there is a way that I can help them directly, and connect in others from the community for the areas where I cannot be of value. Its that simple. Now that doesn't mean it can't get confusing. And it has been. Companies get themselves, people get themselves, into some big complicated messes. I help sort through it all. What is it going to take for you to love your technology?
