And now I can breathe

Posted on February 18, 2022February 22, 2022 By admin

We’ve been working on a big, BIG, presentation for work for the last couple of weeks. Today, it’s been presented to top management of our institute and one of our partner businesses. It was only a 5 minute pitch with 10 minutes for questions.

I was remote for the meeting because I think I’m coming down with something but I dressed to impress, even if only the upper half :)

I’ve been bricking it all week, but it went well. I’d practiced my pitch, and I don’t think I messed up anything beyond an unexpected cough. I was happy when one of our stakeholders sent me this by email afterwards:

“BTW good job – one of the only projects [HEAD OF FOOD BUSINESS] complimented that was very clear and aligned 😊”

That’s me done for today. I’m beat, and I want coffee (and maybe a glass of wine after 5pm).

Quote of the day

Sam Vimes could parallel process. Most husbands can. They learn to follow their own line of thought while at the same time listening to what their wives say. And the listening is important, because at any time they could be challenged and must be ready to quote the last sentence in full. A vital additional skill is being able to scan the dialogue for telltale phrases such as "and they can deliver it tomorrow" or "so I've invited them for dinner?" or "they can do it in blue, really quite cheaply."
--(Terry Pratchett, The Fifth Elephant)
