Deanne Belshe

People have called me a change agent.

I don't know about that, but I am motivated. Creative. Positive. Professional.

I see systems. Patterns. Ways to do it better.

I think process is the structure that makes innovation and creativity possible.

I value constraints because limitlessness can be overwhelming.

I solve problems. Find solutions. Craft answers to questions people are asking. Sometimes before they know they're asking them.

I love words. I ask questions. I like inspiring people to do their best. To show up. To contribute. To matter.

I love stories. I champion books — especially the old-fashioned paper kind. I like listening (almost as much as I like talking).

I find technology and where it's leading us fascinating. I champion quality. I seek beauty in the little things and seek ways to make small differences that make big change not only possible, but likely.
