Face Time

It’s been a while since I have posted. In fact, the last time I posted, Russia

was still in its boundaries, America had a different president, and Pandemics

were relatively abstract. Things have definitely changed in the world.

At Show Ready Events, we were lucky to hang in there and not be a pandemic

statistic. We stayed alive and we emerged in force to both plan and execute

awesome shows! We were and are blessed to still be working on FIRST Robotics

Competitions after a couple of decades and see that the core spirit of the FIRST

staff, students, volunteers and sponsors still believe in this important

institution, and how it has and will shape the world. We have had other

ventures too and new clients to boot. We welcome FIRST Global, EH Publishing

and JK Productions as new partners, and am happy for our continued association

with ALM, and Mike Whittington and Associates. We all believe that the best way

to communicate in a community is face to face. Virtual works for everyday coms,

but when you can get input, give feedback and absorb other people’s thoughts in

the same actual environment in real time is incomparable still if you want to

elevate and evolve thought.

The core team of SRE is so important to me. We all have the client in mind,

work hard, solve problems big and small, and are ultimately successful because

our clients are. The most important part of this team isn’t their work acumen,

as much as it is who they are as people. Still important. Pandemic, recession,

storms and bolts of lighting can come, but when you are a good person, you stay

a good person. I can find solid professionals, but its hard to find and

maintain a group of excellent people. That makes me lucky. Our growing group

of part time partners has been a nice thing to see this year. As we work with

them, evaluate them, and grow with them, it is reassuring that the future is as

bright with these pros as our core team. Good things. Good things.....

So, with our busy 2022 both behind and ahead of us, I look forward to sharing

some of our successes more in real time, or as close to it as time and the

falling in place of my words will permit. I have been cautious not to think

like the pandemic is over. Its not. Not at all. Now is the time to move

forward with our skills and hope that the world is ready for a new normal- a

harmonizing of the new healthcare reality, with the continual fact that face to

face events (even with masks) remain transformative!
