The techno elves have been busy!

What I have loved about Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7, among many things, is the company’s courage in design. Most people would agree that previous iterations of Windows Phone were a disaster. But Microsoft did a very smart thing – instead of tweaking a really bad system to try and get it right, they ditched the whole thing and started over. The new Windows Phone is, quite frankly, the best operating system out there (all the hoopla about the iPhone notwithstanding) and Windows Phone 8 has just launched. (Disclosure: Microsoft is a client).

We took a leaf out of Microsoft’s playbook. There wasn’t anything really wrong with our website – but it had been around a long time and we needed fresh functionality and a new approach. The creative team at Louisville-based Core Cubed have delivered. The new website is built in WordPress, which means we can tweak it ourselves whenever necessary, and it offers super-speedy navigation for existing clients, those who are checking us out, faculty, and those who read our books, watch our DVDs and buy our products and courses. Please try it and be sure to leave your comments below.

And….

We also have a new iPhone app.  Many will be familiar with the  Spirit@Work® Cards  which have been very popular over the years. Now there is an iPhone app which you can find at the iTunes Store. (just search for (Spirit@Work®) It was developed in the Czech Republic by our friends at uLikeIT. Now you can carry your Spirit@Work® Cards with you wherever you go. Please check it out too, and let us know what you think.

There is lots going on at The Secretan Center and much excitement about the future, our work with cities, our transformational work with organizations, and our executive coaching work with some of the finest leaders on the planet, all of which keeps us inspired and at the center of unfolding events. And ski season is just around the corner.
