Factiva Advisory Board - 3 year membership 2003-2005
My 3 year tenure involved annual international board meetings where Factiva used its dozen board members to preview, advice and feedback (good and bad!) to help shape new product and service developments. It was fantastic experience to be involved with a supplier to such as extent, and a great opportunity to network with information professionals from across the world.
