Dorothy Griffin turns to technology for attending meetings remotely, checking and responding to Internet leads and reading and sharing information related to seniors, their health and care.
 
While online, checks out lumptolaughter.org, a local site for women diagnosed with breast cancer, veteranaid.org “for helping veterans and their spouses navigate assistance available for veterans,” filetaxes.com for creating W-2s and “pretty much any recipe site as my family loves to eat.”
 
Calls Shark Tank her favorite TV show “because I love the creativity, the crazy ideas and the genius ideas, the variety of presentations – and that it is all about pursuing dreams.”
 
Book picks are Raving Fans: A Revolutionary Approach to Customer Service by Ken Blanchard and Sheldon Bowles, which “has helped me continue to think about everything we do in light of our desire to exceed expectations and create raving fans” and Mark of the Lion by Francine Rivers “because her writing makes me forget I am reading, and the story is riveting.”
 
The Blind Side is a favorite move for Griffin whose “family has grown through the addition of both foster brothers for a lifetime and foster children for a season.”
 
For apps, uses Evernote to keep track of contact information, meetings and things to do and Waze to help find quicker driving routes.
