One of the funnest things about facilitating online is seeing the microphones turn on and off during breakout groups. 🎙️
It's pretty special to witness people communicating with each other, even without the details.

In the interest of celebrating small wins & miraculous events, let it be known that:
I went to a local bookstore looking for a specific item.
I discovered the item was not in the store...
I left WITHOUT BUYING ANYTHING.
Miracles do happen. Change is possible😊

Starting team meetings with a check-in &/or having regular team check-ins is such an important part of leadership practice. Check-ins prime the behaviours that make collaboration possible. Here's a website with some great check-in resources: checkinsuccess.com/what/ & a framework for an end of week check-in, if you wanted to start tomorrow. Graphic: @heyamberrae via @TCI_ca

This may be the entry point or reference someone needs to start or go deeper in #DEI transformation.
The @RAEngNews award winner @MarkMcBW of @EqualEngineers @UCLEngineering "shakes" things up in the new @theNAEng Perspective arguing for a #DEI strategy that seeks to address sexism, systemic racism, or homophobia from a point of empathy.

On my first day as a solopreneur in 2019, I spent a few minutes doodling stick figures.
Lots of dancers. One is wearing a party hat.
The only one with a face is judging.
Says a lot about where my headspace was.
Thanks, old notebook. 🥳
ALT A pencil doodle on lined notebook paper of stick figures. One figure is wearing a birthday party hat. One has judging eyes and seems to look in the direction of the figure wearing the hat.
