Is the Year Half Full…or Half Empty?

July 8, 2019 When I was a little girl, summer was about 100 Saturdays strung together by birds chirping as a wake up call, walking for blocks and blocks to see friends, watching baseball at the local field at the end of our street, the summer fair at the Catholic church near us, nights of sitting outside on porches with friends not worrying about the bugs, one full week in Ocean City, NJ and then back to school shopping when we came home.

The college building could no longer hold class

A request from the CEO of PowerLink This is the first time I have written a personal message to our wonderful family and friends of PowerLink. My name is Anita Brattina and I have been wanting to write this message since April, 2015 when I agreed to step back into a leadership role with this incredible organization. Many of you know me and we have shared personal goals and business challenges. But many of you don’t know me, so let me introduce myself… I owned a company in 1992 when PowerLink was just an idea of two of my favorite women: Barb Moore (a good friend from college at Duquesne University and an entrepreneur, now with the Mansmann Foundation) and Ilana Diamond (then a consultant with Price Waterhouse and now with Alpha Lab Gear). They got together and decided that they had a better way to help grow a business. They created an economic development engine called PowerLink. It was unlike any program that existed anywhere in the United States. And I was one of the first c
