https://padlet.com/angellatreece/34og4bel1oxx I am a very apprehensive individual. I live in a fictional world to help me cope with the struggles of daily living and past events. Quiet I am not, I am very articulate. However, I am also specific and descriptive when expressing myself. Only when I record my thoughts do my words seem to flow effortlessly. Speaking is not for me, for my mouth moves faster than my brain can think, so I turn to other mediums where I feel most comfortable sharing. en-us 2016-05-16 15:33:11 UTC 2016-06-28 03:13:27 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padletuploads.blob.core.windows.net/aws/114210980/5825cf6a70fc28b3e612b1521e05eba7d0e4d68c/e84da3e5ed13a8558f63d05f63646100.jpg angellatreece https://padlet.com/angellatreece/34og4bel1oxx/wish/111861192 This is completely necessary and obviously "not so obvious".

I believe everyone should watch this video so they understand that placing one person in charge of everything is not always the smartest thing to do.

By the time you get it built, they'll want something new." -Steve Jobs
 The evolution of technology is forever advancing to the next level. More advanced, more appealing, more demand. I feel as though with this quote it gives a direction of what a company should do when dealing with customers. I believe just like he says you can't technically give customers what they ask for because as soon as something more appealing comes about, customers will discard what they once asked for , and look into getting what is now trending. once those in the market industry understands that, I believe they will be able to sustain in a world that is constantly changing. ]]> 2016-05-23 17:38:20 UTC https://padlet.com/angellatreece/34og4bel1oxx/wish/112180879 angellatreece https://padlet.com/angellatreece/34og4bel1oxx/wish/112763810 The people in this video understand the importance of the roles that both men and women play in gender diversity.
