Awesome! I love how you compared the beginning of the list to the second stage movement <3
Preaching the importance and social impact of the work we are doing - I'm really glad you touched on this. I noticed when I did my interview with the WMF storytellers that I got very emotional about the impact I feel my work is doing. Just like invitations, I wholeheartedly agree about this. (I also see the use of social impact in my work within museum studies; it's an imperative tool in strategic planning and pitching projects, in a female dominated community). Any chance for a transcription in the near future? -Sarah On Tue, Sep 13, 2011 at 2:29 PM, Sue Gardner <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey folks, > > http://www.cbc.ca/spark/2011/09/sue-gardner-on-wikipedias-gender-gap/ > > This is me being interviewed by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation > about our gender gap.
