PDU Of The Day
My Christmas Card To You

Focusing on a healthy work/life balance is important!  It has been an intense year for our teams, our families, our communities and our work as we adapt to health challenges. 

As we look forward to 2025 we trust and pray that together we can work towards finding a new normal that creates engagement between communities that assists, supports and encourages each other.

Project managers understand how crucially important respect and project team wellness are to the productivity of the project.

In 2024 if you support your teams in any way, recognize that building engagement builds loyalty. We are divided more than ever – building unity and respect amongst our teams is the best way to succeed!

I genuinely want to thank all of our readers and our volunteers who have made this site possible! I know that you are of many diverse backgrounds and faiths and at this time of year I appreciate being able to express my thanks and best wishes in one of my favorite holiday songs. The lyrics of this song express my thoughts and my prayers to all of you so much better than I can express.

YOU ALL make this possible! Blessings to you all!

– Martin Chernenkoff Editor PDU Of The Day

My Christmas Card To You

Written by Tony Romeo Sung by: David Cassidy Discography

To you and all your family, your neighbors and your friends
May all your days be happy with a joy that never ends
May peace and love surround you
at Christmas time and all the whole year through …

I’m looking out my window at the softly falling snow
that dances in the early morning light
I got my guitar right before me, strummin’ a beautiful sound
watching it a-comin’ down, all around
on the fields and the farms and the road to town

And I’m thinkin’ up a letter that I’m writin’ in my head
a Christmas card to all the folks I love
Instead of lettin’ the postman bring it, I decided I’d rather sing it
especially for you, for you …

To you and all your family, your neighbors and your friends
May all your days be happy with a joy that never ends
May peace and love surround you
at Christmas time and all the whole year through

May your life be filled with sunshine, may your every wish come true
May you find the sweet fulfillment in everything you do
May your days be blessed with the very very best
both now and the whole year through
it says so in my Christmas card to …

You and all your family, your neighbors and your friends
May all your days be happy with a joy that never ends
May peace and love surround you
at Christmas time and all the whole year through
at Christmas time and all the whole year through

Please do what you can to support others even if it is only to share a smile!

ChatGPT has grabbed headlines, caused competitors to scramble, been embraced by innovators, and banned by some organizations and countries.

It is just the latest example of a near decade long technology trend called generative AI, which can augment human capabilities by creating realistic content such as text, images, audio, and much more.

It can also be used to generate synthetic data that represents the original data and can eliminate privacy concerns, augment AI training data, and mitigate bias.

In this webinar Brian Burke (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Research VP   will explore the future of generative AI and help you understand the many use cases for generative AI to enable your organization to stay ahead of the competition and drive innovation.

Discussion Topics:

• Explore how generative AI is a fundamentally different approach to AI
• Expose the practical applications of generative AI which are making breakthroughs in product design, operational processes, and business models
• How to be an early adopter of generative AI to drive innovation in your industry
