June 11-14 of 2012 MECLABS hosted the 2012 Optimization Summit in Denver Colorado. I have the wonderful opportunity of working for MECLABS as the Senior Technical Manager at the Headquarters in Jacksonville FL.
MECLABS is such a supporting organization that they requested I be one of our staff members to attend the Op Summit this year. I was to have 1 bonus session of “Crossing the Technology Divide: How to diagnose and troubleshoot your IT/Marketing Relationship” on Wednesday in the afternoon. I arrived in Denver Monday morning and worked through Thursday afternoon at the summit. Of course I provided some IT support with any internet issues and other items.
My two priorities while at the summit were of course my session but then, photography! How often do companies with multiple locations and near 150 employees notice their employees hobbies enough to give them opportunity to apply them in the work place?!??
This was not the first time they have requested my photography skills, but the first time that I was taken to such a large and important even to be the on sight primary photographer. We have another staff member who is responsible for video, but not the photography. I feel so honored to work for such a company.
Check with your own company if you are currently employed, see if they have any events that they may consider….
