Video

I am very pleased to announce the official launch of the LM Organizing Solutions You Tube Channel! The channel will allow me to post and share lots of great videos, including interviews, television segments, panel discussions, and clips from speaking engagements. I will also post short "how-to" videos covering common organizing challenges so the channel will be an educational resource, as well as a promotional one.

So bookmark the channel (or better yet, become a subscriber!) and check back often for new and exciting videos.

Lisa Montanaro shares Professional Organizing Tips on organizing shelving at the Rubbermaid Booth at the 2010 National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) Tradeshow & Convention (courtesy of http://www.youtube.com/user/RubbermaidOnline)


Lisa Montanaro is interviewed by co-hosts, Marisa Miles and Tameeka Williams, of the new public access television show, The Path: Positive People, Places & Things in the Hudson Valley. Lisa discusses her business and offers organizing tips for back to school time.

Lisa served as a member of the NY State Bar Association's Lawyers in Transition Panel, The Next Wave: A Panel of Lawyers Who Have Tapped Into Their Passion to Find Success in Other Careers, which was held live in NYC and as a webcast online. Lisa shared her story of leaving the practice of law to become an entrepreneur. Lisa and her fellow panelists -- an executive career coach, a reporter/writer, and an attorney-turned-standup comedian -- had lots of good stories and advice for anybody contemplating a career change.
