I'm happy to announce that several thought leaders have joined together with me to revitalize the Big Question. We will likely be trying some different things over the next few months. What exactly, we aren't sure. We'll figure it out as we go.
The goals of the Big Question will remain the same:
- A way to highlight thought leaders around topics of interest to eLearning Professionals
- A way to stimulate different perspectives on questions that are of interest to eLearning Professionals.
We are definitely interested in having contributions from other Thought Leaders, so feel free to contact me: akarrer@techempower.com if you are interested in participating.

Holly MacDonald
Holly lives on a small semi-rural island off the coast of British Columbia, Canada where she works as an independent learning strategist, advising clients thoughout their journey to e-learning. She's particularly interested in performance support and the rise of user generated content as growth areas for traditional workplace learning. Holly's been tinkering in the learning field for over 15 years in a variety of roles. After 12+ years in the corporate world, she decided that climbing the career ladder was not the only option and freedom 55 was someone else's dream. She's enjoying the diversity that consulting offers, even if the workload is daunting at times. She's a voracious reader (mostly snobby fiction), a fair-weather sea kayaker, enthusiastic (but not particularly skilful) downhill skier and a busy mom who seeks to find time to do it all.

I am really excited about being involved in the Big Question and the opportunity to work with Glenn, Thomas, Holly and Tony. This is going to be a great venture. If you are using Twitter, keep an eye out for our #LCBQ hashtag too.
I have to say making predictions in mid-Feb for 2011 almost seems like having a head start in a race. You can read my 2011 Learning Technology Predictions at my website and tweet me at 4EFRSWM. Perhaps it's a bit bombastic, but I had a lot of fun writing this post and look forward to more BQ topics.
