4. Sample Entry on Performance
I customized the monthly budget reports given to Directors to include not only their monthly actual expenses by category and balances but also projected fiscal year expenses and revenues for their major programs based on the established program goals and activities. The directors indicated that this new report information enhanced their program planning and helped them to proactively make modifications to stay within budget.

5. Develop Yourself!
The speed of change is so rapid now that the kind of work that people do will be continuously reinvented. Digital technology, the ubiquity of data and the globalization of work will be these evolutionary drivers that change people’s jobs on an ongoing basis.”
