Welcome to Replication Essentials Powered by Mercy Alliance We've been talking a lot about tools lately. NotebookLM. The Catalyst Library. The DMM Community. The Catalyst Dashboard. And if you're anything like the leaders I keep hearing from, you're thinking one of two things right now. Either: "This is incredible. I had no idea these tools existed." Or: "Roy, I'm already overwhelmed. Please stop adding things to my plate." I hear both of you. So this week, I want to keep it simple. Three...
