@rebekahmiel @mpattonchapman Meet me at CC this weekend and I'll show you what I know!

Doing an optional Q&A/office hours session on projects in lieu of class today and no one is showing up so I guess I'm gonna figure out Mastadon?

I'll be posting here a lot less because of the changes in ownership, TOS, and experience. This was always my 'too short' or 'not fully formed' for linkedin or random thoughts at conferences or with folks in the field space anywho.

Once again having a day where I look great in person and a mess on zoom. Wavy hair and zoom is not a good mix!

Ten days ago I started the "do we need to solve this before calendar year end?" and I'm grateful that the season of 'before the holidays' now starts for everyone else.

@KarinBloNo Does it have a consequence anymore?

I literally just came up with an inclusive analogy for a CRM and omg I'm never going to stop using it.

@bmh1492 @Sarahmilston We're testing things like Colleagues are accountable for their decisions and outcomes Team members follow through on shared goals I look forward to and enjoy working with colleagues on this team I receive constructive feedback on my performance from my colleagues on this team

@Sarahmilston @DevelopmentNat Me too!

Decided that what we needed was a week long retreat to spend time figuring everything out together. But realistically, who can do that when these days even a day retreating is hard?

Milestone 2 fully entered - HOW are our internal partnerships holding up? We had 31 team members rate their own and other teams on 20 attributes of strong teams. Just shared the results so we can plan where we want to change!

First session - success! We moved through the agenda, everyone spoke, people were brave and vulnerable, and we're going to continue to increase feelings of safety and productivity for all. Collaborative, team-based strategic planning is a joy! Your team knows more than you!

6 more post-its and two pieces of analysis/data cleaning. And I'm done!

9 done! Going for another half hour.

End of week accountibility thread - I think I count 24 post it notes of things I'm going to finish this week. A lot of these will roll to a consolidated list for next week, but some can be done fast.

What a great talk organized by the Gallup Center on Black Voices news.gallup.com/315575/measuri…

Oh! Now they are tackling what to do when employees want to do more on DEI than leaders want to do.

Is your statement bold or sincere? @ReggieVanLee

WHOA! How do we bring sponsorship and the cover it brings FORWARD so the systems are not exclusionary? @DrLisaToppin

Whoops! Should have tagged in @DrLisaToppin What powerful public thinking. Thank you for sharing your experience and ideas today.

Paraphrasing Lisa Toppin - talent management looks similar everywhere. If we want to make change we've talked about, we have to deconstruct our process becase they are baked in the social oppression of our society. We can't elliminate, but can we reduce by having better managers?

"send the elevator back down when you make it" Wow EXACTLY! @KarenS_Carter

I passed the CFRE exam this week earning the designation! I was not really going to say much about it, but then read Kiese Laymon this week on how we undermine ourselves so decided to share. I did a lot of work to earn this, the earning wasn't the goal, but the work was mine.

subtweeting myself until all the digital paperwork arrives officially.

You better believe I did that :D
