mental notes for 2010
20 December, 2009 at 12:38 pm 2 comments
I think some quite exciting things are going to happen next year at work on the Insight front, which should hopefully mean new ways of working and new skill sets for me.
But however things end up, there are a few things (if not actual Resolutions, then at least a bit of a mental note about stuff to focus on) that I’ll be taking forward into my work in 2010, some of which I already subscribe to, some of which I need to work harder on:
- the ‘consumer’ is an individual (like me)
- if you aren’t helping, get out of the way
- powerpoint – less words and more pictures please
- work is about what you contribute, not how many hours you sit behind a computer
- interestingness is for sharing
- working in marketing is rarely life or death – and probably a lot more fun than accounting, so enjoy it while it lasts (but don’t put up with any rubbish)
