Jam Session 2.2

Please join us for Jam Session 2.2 as we discuss the issue of resource and time management.  In a world where videoconferencing is only ONE of the roles we serve, efficiently managing our time and resource seems more necessary than ever. Please come equipped with a resource, strategy, suggestion or tool that you would recommend to help manage resources and/or time.
