We're Back! We took a bit of a hiatus to get the tabGeeks conference operations side of the business ramped back up preparing for tabGeeks20 this coming April. More about that at www.tabgeeks.com/tg20


Being responsible for IT in the education space comes with it's own set of special challenges. Instead of being free to make upgrades on your schedule and spread things out over the year, you do mostly breakfix during the school year and then there is a marathon to get all the upgrades and new tech and refurbishing of tech that has to get done over the summer break. Sounds exhausting just thinking about it. 


This week's guest is Marques Stewart, who goes into what it takes to survive in such harsh conditions, and to build a team that thrives from it.
