The Asset Building Program’s Favorites of 2013
The end of the year is traditionally a time for reflection, and everyone, everywhere on earth loves a listicle, so my colleagues and I decided to pull together a look back on the year that was for the Asset Building Program. Below you鈥檒l find links to some of our favorite pieces of the year and the pieces that tiny elves (ok, Google Analytics) tell us were most popular with you, our readers.
Our office is closed from December 24th until January 2nd, so we won鈥檛 be publishing Asset Building News Week or much of anything else for a while. The good news is, you can satisfy many an asset building urge by checking out these favorites. Also, keep an eye on twitter, we鈥檒l be tweeting links to some of this work and asking our friends in the field to highlight their work using #Assets2013.
