This week i am taking my first step into musical weeknotes and basing them around lyrics…
“Alright stop, collaborate and listen”
At the start of this week the #Futurefest team got together (virtually this time) to plan the schedule for the event. Finding a balance between all areas of Digital Dorset was a hard challenge but i think we have found the best outcome. Expect to see some more promotion when things are concrete. Might even do a transfer deadline when we start agreeing speakers… Actually, that’s not a bad idea!
“Call me old-fashioned”
I had a random power cut this week which was luckily when i didn’t have any meetings. It meant that i had to go all caveman and start writing my notes on paper and sketching some ideas. My hand ached loads as i never workout those muscles at the gym! Maybe i should add writing to my regime.
“I am not throwin’ away my shot”
This week was Digital Leaders week so there has been lots going on!
Over the week i attended a lots of talks and it really made me realise that sometimes we might be being too harsh on ourselves. Even when the team are struggling and having issues with blockers and culture we are still ahead of the curve in a lot of areas.Trendsetting instead of following!!
I have also seen some very ‘Texty’ Slides which made me sick a little in my mouth. Pleeasseee have your notes separate and don’t just read off the slides. PLEASE.
I also had a session during the week talking about the creation of the Festival and the lessons we learnt. Not many people turned up for the session live which if I’m honest was a bit demoralising when you put so much time into creating/writing but often people catchup on the recording so i can hope for that.
If you want to watch the session its here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVs-XsPHykQ&t=7s
“Im just chillin”
A few days this week the sun has tempted me or away or i just haven’t felt up to it so i used the words i keep saying to the team ‘bin it off’ and have logged off early. This has been really great because i have actually had some time where I’m not thinking about work! That doesn’t happen often…
I think thats it from me this week!
Im watching In the Heights this weekend and im SUPER excited so maybe i will be inspired to do a song/rap for my weeknotes next week….
;)
Sam out!
