"If you let go a bit, you gain a bit of peace. If you let go completely, you're free. But first you must know what you're holding on to."

Is anyone paying attention?! It’s crazy how acquisitions consume the feed and yet… PR and its people, our people, are suffering. Maybe more tech colonialists can buy up the sunny sands free of taxes displacing it’s residents so they can in turn “rescue them” — that shd do it.
Breaking News: Puerto Rico’s governor said that over 1,000 stranded residents had been rescued after Hurricane Fiona left the island with widespread flooding and continued heavy rains. Most of the island remains without power. nyti.ms/3dqQ1Dy

Design operations at Atlassian is growing. Looking for DesignOpspractitioners to join the Design Hub team. Is it you?
- Lead Design Technologist (US) jobs.lever.co/atlassian/98c6…
- DesignOps Lead, WM4A (US) jobs.lever.co/atlassian/ce62…
- DesignOps Coordinator (AUS/NZ) jobs.lever.co/atlassian/2dac…
I’m mean, really…. Who’s interested in designing the future of design?
Ask any ops person why they like ops and 9/10 will tell you something about how they like solving problems...but @BrewChaCha makes a pretty compelling case about why #DesignOps problems may be some of the best problems.
Who else is signing up to help design the future? 🙋🏻♀️

ALT Card with a thin white grid over a red-orange to green gradient. In the bottom left corner is an avatar of Dominique Ward with name and title: Head of Design Ops, Atlassian. Bottom right corner has Work Check logo: two text bubbles (one green one red-orange). Left-aligned bolded text reads: "If 90% of companies are struggling to transform, that means that in 90% of cases, companies could lose talent, slow down development, or create conflict."
Check out the latest episode of Work Check. Marshall and I debate the merits of asynchronous collaboration as the default.
Listen to it wherever you get your podcasts.
The great workplace debate: should asynchronous collaboration be the new default way of working? 🤔
