SXSW: We can’t move forward without knowing where we’ve been and how we got there.

Post to Twitter

South by Southwest (SXSW) is one of the hottest places to be each year for people interested in innovation, music, education, and technology. At Vanguard, we are excited that four workshops we proposed for the 2013 conference in Austin have made it into the first round of voting! We will be introducing you to the presenters for our proposed workshops in a series of posts through Friday, August 31.

Maria Rodriguez is the President of Vanguard, a company she co-founded 25 years ago. Learn more about Maria on her Leadership Page.

In one word describe:

South by Southwest: Edgy

Evaluation: Powerful

Social change: Essential

Finish the following sentences:

I knew my work made a difference when … others used the tools I gave them to create change in their communities.

To me, evaluation is … knowledge and knowledge is power.

My life’s work is … evolving always.

Spend one more minute getting to know Maria Rodriguez and what she has to say about her panel proposal with Karen McDonnell, titled Judgment Day: Can You Defend Your Life’s Work?  and let the judges know you want to it see it at SXSW by voting today.

Have questions? Leave them in the comments or tweet us @VanComm.
