**Write it down.** With ASAE’s 2013 Annual Meeting & Expo just around the corner, it might be time to sharpen up your note-taking skills. It’s especially true in our modern paperless age where many attendees may be scribbling down notes on mobile devices instead of with a pen. Tip number one: Hear something important? Tweet it. You can go back and check your tweets later. [Sarah Hill of MemberClicks offers five more tips (opens in a new tab)](http://blog.memberclicks.com/bid/307283/How-To-Take-Great-Notes-at-ASAE-2013)
 for effective note taking. Mobile devices are great, but you’ll never catch me without my trusty Moleskine notebook. It never runs out of battery power. (ht @[MemberClicks (opens in a new tab)](https://twitter.com/MemberClicks/status/362574296532533248)

**Should CEOs share power?** A handful of them are, [according to an article posted at LinkedIn by Jennifer Merritt (opens in a new tab)](http://www.linkedin.com/today/post/article/20130730175048-20195722-should-bosses-give-up-more-of-their-power)
. The growth of multinational companies has led to an unusual arrangement: Some have multiple CEOs who manage individual geographic regions. One such company is Whole Foods. The pros: Decisions are made where business is actually done instead of miles away by a distant chief executive. The cons: Egos can get in the way, and employees may be confused about who’s in charge. To make it work, co-CEOs need to get along, share a vision, and have similar professional values.
