This week I received an email from Microsoft telling me that I have been invited into the Regional Director program. The program is similar to the more famous MVP program, but less technology spesific. From the Regional Director website:
“We are community.
Not only are we a close group of technology experts, we span the globe and spend an excessive amount of time authoring leading technology books, articles and blogs as well as speaking at events that range from the biggest conferences in the industry to local user group meetings.
We love what we do.
The RD program is exclusive. Having been around since 1993, Regional Directors represent the best of the Microsoft Developer Community. While we come together in a Microsoft program we work on all platforms and technologies. We believe, however, in Microsoft’s commitment to the developer community and we work directly with the company to help enhance their products and bring the market the best of technology innovation.”
There are, as far as I know, about 150 Regional Directors worldwide, so this is a great honor. I truly appreciate the opportunity, and look forward to working with my fellow Regional Directors to promote Microsoft technology.
