@StefanPowell @markdalgarno Were both open to ideas. We wondering bout coaching, facilitation, clarity of communication , a course a book or something smaller it could be in the future of work field as were both part of the team here to help work function more effectively as much as work today or the past.

@DavidBuckster @markdalgarno Where do you want to get to or get out of it?

I'm thinking of doing some dedicated learning with my manager and I wondered if you had any thoughts.

@StefanPowell @markdalgarno Where might you guide it?

@DavidBuckster @markdalgarno Do it - but guide it

@XenonGT @clearmapping Pinch zooming on that is a lot of fun. Thank you.

This week for #MapPromptMonday the theme is home. I decided to use a 1949 aerial photo of my hometown #lincolnparkmi and try to render it like it was made from a mosaic of several #gameboy screenshots. I'm happy with it and it was a lot of fun to create. #qgis #gischat

@j4 You made me think Janet. Imagine if your employer said this to you. What one thing can we do for you. And then they said in any part of your life, what would you ask for?

And I'm like ... I don't think I've vacuumed this year? I haven't mowed the lawn since 2019?? I have never washed the curtains. I turned a mattress once. I don't have exercise-for-fun routines (I cycle/walk everywhere). I HAVE ALREADY PARED THIS SHIT DOWN TO A FUCKING MINIMUM.

Is it that I'm extremely bad at this stuff or is there actually just SO MUCH WORK involved in MAINTAINING EVERYTHING? Kids, school, house, friends, everything. I feel like I'm drowning.

@HannahPinnock @mershaaftab Having been doing that for a while I’d say there are things which make people feel more at home and others that drive people away and each layer effects the other so you must make tough choices on which take priority. An organisation’s history, lore and future are a start.

@DavidBuckster @mershaaftab Broadly we are looking at organisational belonging, but also specifically at how belonging to a role, discipline, team and the wider org might look and could be fostered in these different working contexts

💥 How can you foster a sense of belonging in a hybrid or remote work place? 💥 @mershaaftab & I are writing an opinion piece on this very topic for a journal. If you have thoughts, we'd love to have a short chat with you to understand your experiences to help our thinking 👀🙏

@HannahPinnock @mershaaftab I’m wondering. Belonging to what. A sense of belonging to a team, a community, a cause, an organisation, a faith, a brand, a place. As I think it is subtly different but there are many commonalties; people, symbols, objects, time.

@DavidBuckster @mershaaftab I guess I probably shouldn't have used 'work place'. We are exploring how to foster a strong sense of belonging whether it's fully remote, hybrid or fully face to face.

Excited to announce #UKEduCamp – a new #unconference for people passionate about delivering high-quality #DigitalServices in #HigherEd & #FurtherEd Sign up now and join us in Sheffield on June 29th! eventbrite.co.uk/e/ukeducamp-20… ukeducamp.co.uk

@ndajz @MrMikeRose @andnewman @deborah_yates @jamestell @BeckStrickland @AngharadStone @ClareMoriarty @timashelford @1sammy1wild1 @EmilyHMiles Why did we never trade mark communigagement? All the best is seat of the pants any more and my bureaucracy management metrics overdrive kicks in and starts to build dashboards 😁

@MrMikeRose @DavidBuckster @andnewman @deborah_yates @jamestell @BeckStrickland @AngharadStone @ClareMoriarty @timashelford @1sammy1wild1 @EmilyHMiles Defra data hour. Seat-of-pants communigagement.
