Started [[Biogas_Subject_Matter_Experts]] request for SMEs. [[Colby]] wrote first cut of [[MIT_Innovations_Journal#First_Cut]] article introducing Distributive Enterprise to the outside world for the first time.
 
[[Helen]] is making me think about about [[Ruthless Accountability to Core Goals]] - I need to clarify my Go/NoGo list that [[Katherine]] suggested. I get many offers for radical work where people want solutions from employment to freedom, but I have very little to offer because without the [[GVCS]] in place, we have no substance. So the only offers I can accept are low-risk offers of GVCS deployment according to [[Strat Plan]] and offers of strategic assistance on organizational scaling. So I told [[Sam Wells]] that ''We can collaborate on machine development and strategic organizational scaling at this point, as well as recruiting of Advisory Board Members''.
 
=Wed Sep 19, 2012=
Began reframing [[My Story]] - leading with my personal story - as suggested by [[David Weaver]] initially in the [[SupporTED Collaboratorium]]. So we're refining the [[Recruiting Strategy]] - as the initial hit through job boards buried the lead of a compelling story of changing the world.
 
No response from [[Craig Campbell]] on the OSE fund, which was promised for early yesterday and now latest by today. Responded to [[Sohil]] on assistnace with immediate priorities of attaining $20k/month bootstrap funding levels.
 
Finishing [[Shuttleworth Pitch - 9.18.12]]. Got first ag feedback at [[LifeTrac Technical Review]].
 
Talking to [[Margaret Cary]] about what it takes to be a great leader. Take-away: ability to control emotions will make or break your organization.
 
Ordered [[Stucco Sprayer]] and [[Renee]] recommended [[Emotional Intelligence 2.0]], which I got for Kindle. So then I got a [[1/2 hp Submersible Well Pump]] and a [[Pitless Adapter]] for well.
 
=Tue Sep 18, 2012=
Worked with [[David Weaver]] on introduction email for recruiting, see [[Haystack Email]]. Then invited [[Marissa Levin]] to help create a strategy for recruiting advisors and mentors/coaches. Checked in briefly with [[Sunny]] to follow up on contacts regarding recruiting. Renee also suggested touching in with [[Colleen Keegan]] on advisory board development, so I set up an appointment.
 
Reviewing cut of [[MIT Innovations Journal Article on Open Source Civilization]]. Starter [[Advisory_Board_Strategy]].
 
Did not get much help yet recruiting from [[Encore]], I don't think I did that right somehow. I did find [[Coming_of_Age_Kansas_City]] as a local org that helps organizations leverage 55+ talent. Dissatisfied with Encore results, i tried an [[Encore Message]] to Encore.
 
=Monday Sep. 17, 2012=
I am preoccupied with the [[Conxcorp]] opportunity - an offer to set up a large fund for removing OSE's current material scarcities. [[Craig Campbell]], founding executive, knew about me for a long time, and I think saw the [[Master Prototyper Recruiting Video]] and my energy from [[TED Collaboratorium]] and decided it was time to contact me. His team was convinced enough by [[Strategic_Plan_2_Ambitious]]
 
I talked to [[Stephanie]] today to help refine the [[Operations_Manager_Role_Description]], which [[Karien]] and I drew up over Karien's Saturday visit. Then I talked to [[Gerard Cox]], and then [[Renee]] commented further on the Ops Manager description. I thought about how to expand coaching support to [[Social Entrepreneurship Fellows]]. Finished '''[[Shuttleworth Foundation Quarterly Reports]]''' (August), and started with [[Strategic Networking]] page, for which I started Category [[Tops]].
 
Tomorrow morning [[David Weaver]] and I are reworking [[OSE Brand]] and I will be talking to [[Sunny]] and [[Katherine]] tomorrow. Including [[Levels of Openness in Human Enterprise]] in MIT Innovations Journal article. Having run into a former Ashoka-related contact - i wrote a [[Letter to Jim of Civic Ventures]] to recruit encore professionals.
 
=Sep. 16. 2012=
Noticed [[OSE_Systems_and_Processes]] page outlining development procedure - useful for costing development expenses in strategic plan.
 
Studying [[Responsibility_Assignment_Matrix]]. Requesting Parker to finish all peoples' contracts on site.
Doing [[Shuttleworth Foundation Quarterly Report - August]].

Note: Eyes of many of are better than one.

Today i have reviewed my [[Marcin's_Proposed_Schedule]] with [[Emily Aiken]] and discussed my [http://opensourceecology.org/wiki/Marcin_Daily#Construction 2 week plan] with [[Scott Blessing]]. Further, [[David Weaver]] proposed the second cut of [[OSE Brand]] and [[Craig Campbell]] is vetting the feasibility of setting up a fund for OSE. I requested [[Donna Karlin]] to serve on my [[Board of Advisors]] for Organizational Development - Team Dynamics. Created [[Recruiting Process]] page, and began [[OSE Microhouse Prototype]] page. I noticed my TED Talk has over 200k hits on [[Will Cleaver]]'s YouTube channel and [[Practical Post Scarcity]] vid has over 100k on another person's channel. We should centralize the numbers for branding purposes. Also posted feedback from Mark Shuttleworth on [[Community_Development]].
 
Epic night finishing first draft of [[Strategic Plan 2 Ambitious]]
