Leadership in EdTech isn't a solo mission. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned as a member of Texas Education Technology Leaders (TETL) is that we are significantly stronger when we lean on each other. In the fast-paced world of K-12 technology, the challenges are constant. Being a part of TETL: +Expands my "Team": I don’t just have my local department; I have a statewide network of the brightest minds in EdTech to brainstorm with. +Sharpens Strategic Vision: TETL provides the resources and policy insights that help me move from "fixing tech" to "leading transformation." +Strengthens Mentorship & Support: There is a unique power in a community that understands the specific pressures of Texas education. If you’re looking to grow as a leader and build a stronger, more resilient team, I can’t recommend this community enough. #TETL #EdTech #K12Leadership #TexasEducation #ProfessionalGrowth

🤔 Think your business backups are good enough? A flash drive from 2016 and a Google Drive folder won’t save you when ransomware hits—or when someone deletes the wrong file. We just wrote a plain-English guide to real business backup best practices for West Texas businesses. It breaks down the 3-2-1 rule, shows what actually works, and gives you a quick self-audit to see if your data’s safe. 🛡️ If you’re not 100% sure your backups would survive a disaster… it’s time to read this: 👉 https://lnkd.in/gQct_mY8

Fierce competition for skilled professionals, rising wage demands, and high turnover after certification make it harder than ever to build stable internal teams. Managed Service Providers (MSPs) are helping bridge the gap—delivering certified expertise, scalable support, and reliable solutions to keep businesses moving forward. 🌐
