What do you get when you put 10 Type A social folks in a room?  Exhausted! 
(Actually, the first answer was a headache!) Thanks Donna Bieg for the photo!

I have the privilege to be in New York City this week with some incredibly creative, passionate, and socially active folks.  Apparently I’m not alone in my frustration of helping people “become social”, but what better place to brainstorm ways to change this behavior? 

Ideas have been thrown on the table, slept on and will continue to be discussed today.  Gamification? Does that help change behavior?  Thoughts?
