NSGCD announces new name
I’m just back from the annual conference of the National Study Group on Chronic Disorganization, held in Austin. As usual, it was educational, energizing and inspiring.
At the conference, the new name for the NSGCD was announced. Starting January 1, 2011, the organization’s name will be:
Institute for Challenging Disorganization (ICD)
The tagline for the new name is Education. Research. Strategies.
As a board member and a late-to-the-party addition to the Name Change Steering Committee, I was privy to the challenges of renaming this organization. The new name is based on data collected through focus groups and surveys.
Change can be tough, but I think this is an exciting one. As Marketing Director, I’ll be working hard on the transition to the new name in the coming half year or so.
One thing I can say for sure: ICD is a much easier to say (and remember) acronym than NSGCD!
