Today’s coffee companion is a technologist and a coach. We talked about…
- when we last met in person (nearly a decade ago)
- the nature of research organisations
- the challenge of commerciality and research co-existing
- a desire to relocate (but not being sure about the timing)
- optimum team sizes (and this piece I was recently sent… https://perfectpath.co.uk/2023/08/30/looking-through-a-microsolidarity-lens/)
- never wanting to work full-time again
- building a new business
- parenting, and wanting to provide things that you feel you missed out on as a child
- expectations about the world of work for our children’s generation, and how they will learn to work in an era of AI
- the general sense of things not working at the moment
- in person versus online
- the distraction of your own camera
- gold standards of communication, and the work of Professor Elizabeth Stokoe
