Mood: 🤩. A wind in my sails from all the great chats and face time this week. 🌹 What am I grateful for this week? Short weeks are always a blur — more so when they’re fully social. We were rather overdue for a delivery away day and Wednesday didn’t disappoint. There’s something special about learning from one…

Mood: ✌️. Putting in the work, and trusting in where it’ll lead us. 🌹 What am I grateful for this week? Made great progress last week on a framework to answer the tough questions: “what else do I have to do?” and “how long will it take?” You see, those questions have been stewing for ages without a…

Mood: 😊. Nurturing my zen. Rather than bumps in the road, trying to see ripples in the pond. 🌹 What am I grateful for this week? I’m back from a lovely break in the Swiss countryside, properly disconnecting from work and enjoying some time back in nature. Since getting back into things, our hiring efforts continue in anger…

Mood: 😝. Pushing through some niggling bits. Is it nearly spring break? 🌹 What am I grateful for this week? Happy we built on last week’s momentum and got another two product strategy experiments ready to launch — equally, I think they managed to be much more targeted than our first week’s effort, in large part due to…

Mood: 😙. Feels like we’re building up to something. Cautiously optimistic. 🌹 What am I grateful for this week? It was about a year ago that I found myself in this position, getting Talent Compass through its rinse phase with a bench team, and even now I am still a bit surprised by the outcome we got to…

Mood: 😤. Trying not to make things harder than they need to be. 🌹 What am I grateful for this week? Sports analogies really aren’t my thing, but it feels appropriate this time around to celebrate a potential hit after many times at bat* to start the year. Even though the fly ball is still high in the…

Mood: 😼. Firing on all cylinders. Am I running out of time? 🌹 What am I grateful for this week? Building off of a similar feeling in February, it’s been nice to get tapped on the shoulder for a couple product-related threads this week. Leading a discussion around our product strategy offering, for one — that’s our structured…

Mood: 🤞. Feels like spring. Just waiting for the buds to blossom. 🌹 What am I grateful for this week? The weather outside may not agree, but it feels like spring at work right now. We had a chance to host a conversational workshop in lieu of doing a long RFP response — refreshing. Our bench is keeping…

Mood: 😏. Rolling with the punches, and maybe dodging a few, too. 🌹 What am I grateful for this week? I could’ve had a bog standard Tuesday working from home, but I’m so glad I didn’t. A tube strike was called on the day of a long awaited in-person client workshop. I subbed in late for one of…
