<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=992573719-26102002>Hi all!

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=992573719-26102002>I've got two project
waiting to start up! One is up in Boulder, and the other is in
Greeley. I know some of you have been waiting to find a project in your
neighborhood, and now here it is! Bluntly put, before we do ANYTHING, we
have to have a project leader for each of these. This project leader
should ideally have project management experience, but truly, what you need to
have is the ability to coordinate and DRIVE efforts to completion. This
means that you have to have patience! The great thing about being the
project leader, is that you are the person who gets the most exposure to the
client, and ostensibly the best references, since you'll do a good job knowing
that leaving a project unfinished is a great way to get a poor
reference! Please contact me ASAP, as these two projects won't last,
someone out there will recognize the potential networking for jobs
opportunities! Remember, when you do something for someone else, they
generally go out of their way to help you too!</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

several people indicate interest in certain roles, but nobody has offered to
lead the team. Here's the project details:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=992573719-26102002><FONT face=Arial size=2>In Greeley, the
organization is one that advocates English Literacy. They teach ESL, and
are installing a computer-based training package, and need help. They have
20+ machines and need to look at networking them, and possibly building in
network security (domains and file level security). It's unclear at this
point whether they will get a DSL line. They have some hubs, and no idea
what they are really doing. We will need a Project leader who's got
knowledge of Local Area Networks. I also think that we'll need 3-4
technicians to help install the network. If there's anyone out there who's
willing to use this opportunity to teach others networking, please let me
know! At this point, only the package they are going to use for the ESL is
what will determine Linux vs. Windows. They have little or no budget, so
we'll have to beg for Windows software somewhere! </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=992573719-26102002><FONT face=Arial size=2>Ok, to proceed with
these projects we'll need a person willing to drive and coordinate. You'll
be the Single Point of Contact (SPOC) for the project. You'll need to have
the ability to delineate and track tasks, and coordinate with the client to
ensure it gets done. You'll be the one writing the contracts, and be the
primary negotiator and client contact. You'll also drive the documentation
effort and the press release at conclusion, which will prominently mention all
names of those who worked on the job, and their roles......getting the picture
on how this potentially helps you find a job? </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
