Ann Michael Is a B.A.D. Blogger

Blogger A Day Call: Hello is Ann there?

They say content is king. But I hear the king can be unmanageable. If you’re having a content management problem, do what I did yesterday, call in a content management expert — Ann Michael. Gosh we had fun talking. I’ve been making content all of my career, and I hadn’t met a content manager until Ann. They do some really cool stuff.

In her consulting business, Ann makes sure that misbehaving intellectual property does what it should. Talk to her for five minutes, and you’ll know her real love is helping clients manage change successfully. She’s so positive and centered on the needs of others that you want to check where you might use her this very minute. She says she hasn’t ever had to turn anyone away yet . . .

Ann’s a fascinating person with a sense humor, and a great laugh. Ask her a question and you can hear her thinking how she’s going to help you solve it. It’s so fun that we took this time to talk blogger to blogger.

B.A.D. Blogger Quote

“Strategy without action is just philosophy.” – Ann Michael

Stop by Ann’s Blog, Manage To Change and say hi to her!

Thanks, Ann, you B.A.D. Blogger!

    Wow - thanks Liz. It was great talking to you.

    I can’t believe you brought up my laugh - it’s been commented on a lot throughout my life (I personally hate it - but it’s turning into my trademark - go figure!).

    Thanks for taking the time to ring me up (as they say in one of my favourite countries)!

    Hey Liz,

    I was just going to call you, I still have your cell # from our last conversation.

    I didn’t want to intrude on your personal time, so I decided not to call without letting you know first.

    So, I’ll save you a dime if you answer your cell phone in… 3… 2… 1

    Sorry, Liz

    I should have thought 3 times before calling. I really thought I would get voicemail or something.

    Hope you’re not upset. :-}

    Hey Ann,
    It was such fun to call you up with no reason and to actually spend some time finding out about what you do. I think the whole world should hire you. It would work better with more content mangement and with more help in managing change successfully. Will you take on the job, please?

    oh Joe,
    You’d have to do something mean to upset me. That was nice. I liked it. It made me feel special. How could I feel bad about that? :)

    Hey, after what we did together this summer. I’m hiring you to do anything that I can’t get to or handle and all things that you’re better at than I am. (We won’t say those out loud here.)

    I hope you have some time between now and the holidays. I might have some research that I would use your quick analysis on.
