From May 2010
Try These on for Size
by Audrey Stone on May 28, 2010We all know Google has changed the way our world “does” technology. Just the fact that people have turned the word “Google” into a verb as in “I don’t know, Google it”, is a major testament to how it has truly shifted our culture. But I learned something the other night about Google while playing with my new cell phone that will radically change how we learn about the things we see every day. Google labs has launched the beta version of Google Goggles. According to Google, this technology “lets you use pictures taken with your mobile phone to search……
Working with the "In" Crowd
by Jim Hunt on May 28, 2010Approaching mid-year, it is a good time to reflect on what has happened to make the first several months of the year move at light-speed. It does not take long to realize the Moore Consulting Group team has been totally “in it” through 2010 thus far. My co-workers at Moore Consulting Group are truly the “in” crowd. They initiate, innovate and invigorate – here’s how: Initiate: Last year as we planned our community outreach efforts for 2010 we wanted to offer something of lasting value to positively impact the Tallahassee community.

We All Play a Part
by Fernando Senra on May 27, 2010With the recent work we are doing regarding the Deepwater Horizon disaster, it’s easy to get caught up in the politics of it all and lose sight of the negative impacts to real people who depend on the Gulf as the source of their livelihoods. During a recent visit to Destin to meet with local fishermen and business owners, I was hit with a dose of reality – this oil spill affects people just like you and me. Each day you hear about fishermen, shrimpers and others who are impacted, but it’s not until you are in a room with……
I Pledge Allegiance…
by Emily Read on May 26, 2010I’m an Air Force brat and darn proud of it. Maybe your mom or dad was also in the armed forces. Or maybe a sibling, child, or friend served. But I’m willing to wage my hard-earned paycheck that your life has been touched by a veteran. Moore Consulting Group and our 10 in 2010 partners, the Greater Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce and Tallahassee Democrat, were honored to host the Florida Department of Veterans’ Affairs (FDVA) as our May 10 in 2010 participant. We offer 10 in 2010 as a pro bono outreach program to businesses, organizations and agencies in the……
Sterling Performance
by Nanette Schimpf on May 21, 2010When the Governor and Florida Sterling Council last week announced the 2010 Governor’s Sterling Award recipients, the healthcare industry was excited to learn they had swept the awards. Never before have all recipients of this coveted recognition hailed from one industry. While America has been transfixed with the health reform battle, several Florida hospitals were focused on their own challenge in a battle for the highest honor a Florida organization can receive. Florida Hospital (Orlando), James A. Haley Veterans’ Hospital and Clinics (Tampa) and South Miami Hospital all engaged in a significant effort to do it better. And these……
