I attended an e-workshop presented by the eChapter of APTI. The workshop was lead by Lynda Trommelen, who spoke about how Type affects response to change/loss and how to use the insights of Type to assist folks adjusting to change/loss.
One of the charts that Lynda presented originated with Recovery from Loss: A Personalized Guide […]

When I was young, I had imaginary friends. Not too unusual, especially for an imaginative kid raised in the sticks.

Most technical certifications do not have ethics statements attached to them. Security certifications do. The first one I signed was the ISC(2) Ethics Standard. The second is the CISA code of […]
