It’s been a great year for me, packed with some great personal experiences and whilst I’m not going to bore people with them in detail, one thing is consistent in all that I’ve done and that is the Microsoft Small Business Specialist Partner Community. I know many people talk of the business value, etc, etc but at the end of the day I’m involved because of the individuals I’ve met and come to respect. It’s enabled me to grow as a person and develop my business. I’m a great believer that we as a Community should be a “broad church” enabling people to grow within it. It is a unique thing in the Microsoft ecosystem because it has a very human face to it. I get far more out of it than I could ever put in and so to all my fellow SBSers out there thanks for everything and I hope you all have a good Christmas and New Year.

…and boy can SBSC Partners Party :-)
