A Flying Visit


Hello Reader,

I remember many years ago we went out for dinner and there was party of three who had taken our usual table in the window. I recall not being happy but the disappointment, err no - annoyance faded when I overheard the conversation. One very camp man was a little too loud and cut off someone else mid-sentence "Okay, enough of that. Let's talk about me!"

And so I start that way to prepare you for what's to follow...

Nothing fancy this time 'round because of a few reasons:

  1. At the start of last year, I had a semi-goal to clear my Notes on the phone. Approaching the 400 mark, the administrator in me was reeling out a little bit. I'm now past 700, including feature-length Ethical Insights! 🤔
  2. I know you're supposed to love your family (and really, I do in my own way) but that holiday season drained me! Back to my safe space, I'm starting the thaw out. 😉
  3. A conversation has led to me putting pen to paper and starting to draft the Hummingbird Policy for CAS Ltd. Bits and pieces are in the 700+ notes I mentioned above. 🫢

A new edition of "A Little Bird Says" was published on LinkedIn. Do 9-to-5s still exist? With longer working days and undisclosed expectations - one thing we never seem to hear anyone declaring for the start of a new year is to be more honest and open.

​

Until next time... wish me luck with the notes!

A Case Study in Realignment Dear Reader! No excuses. Let's dive straight in. I’m currently refreshing things here at CAS Ltd. Once again, I find myself holding my hands up for getting hyper-focused on my beloved hummingbird logo. This time, the realignment is about shifting the focus towards the bird, not away from the method. Purpose & Direction Like most things in life, we see the best results when we focus on the end game, not solely on the work it takes to get there. The HouseRules method...

Let’s Stop Comparing Ourselves to Big Business Catch up on Medium Happy Easter Reader! Just a quick sidebar before we begin, this is my favourite time of the year. It's not the chocolates 😖 or that I'll be able to feast on crisps again from tomorrow.🤫 It's the sentiment of doing for others. So imagine how timely a post on Social Impact feels right now... A recent campaign caught my eye with the headline: "Social impact isn’t just for big companies." At first glance, it sounds encouraging but...

Time to Rethink That Meeting Culture Hello Reader, If your team’s in the same room but still Zooming in… we’ve got a problem. You’ve likely witnessed a live comedy skit play out before your eyes: an open-plan office buzzing with activity. Then you spot one person on a virtual call and then another. By the time you've surveyed the office, you catch yourself counting on your fingers. Everyone’s on the same call, headphones in, the usual suspects with cameras off, pretending they’re not two...
