Any more?
Love the concept of duality.
You can be a team player but also a solo superstar.
A social, centre of the party extrovert but also at times an introvert.
A busy person, and have slow days.
Lead a healthy lifestyle, and sometimes enjoy a burger.

Errrrโฆ.sorry mate, Iโm raising two kids, running a start-up and trying to keen sane, Iโll check those out in about 10 yearsโ time ๐
Content is King?
Not anymore.
Context is now King.
In an age where content has become ubiquitous, accelerated by AI, context will rule.
Creating authentic, thoughtful content that resonates with target audiences will become more important.
Urban Flood Risk & Resilience: Time for a New Approach?
Key takeaways:
1ย Risk + Resilience: Both frameworks are essential for future-proof cities.
2 AI & Digital Twins: Emerging tech offers breakthroughs in predictive modelling and post-disaster recovery.

โQatium generated a lot of interest across the business [...]. It forms part of our wider digital transformation journey which aims to embed new capabilities, positively impacting both our customers and employees.โ โ Andy Smith, Head of Smart Water, @AnglianWater
Anglian Water Services, the largest water and water recycling company in England and Wales by geographic area, supplies services to almost 7 million people in the East of England and Hartlepool. While facing increasing challenges, from climate change to aging infrastructure, Anglian was also trying to address how to shift from reactive to proactive planning while minimizing the impact on their customers.
Qatium was able to provide Anglian Water with an intuitive, real-time digital twin of their water network, enabling frontline teams to visualize hydraulic data, optimize system performance, and quickly assess operational scenarios. This accelerated decision-making, reduced reliance on modeling teams, and helped secure leadership buy-in within just three weeks.

Iโm convinced the use of #AI tools will eventually become as common as googling something to help.
Once youโve learned to dial in the prompt, #GPT and others can be such a game changer to save time.
Content has become ubiquitous. Itโs everywhere.
Thereโs more content available today than we can consume in our lifetimes.
Add AI-generated content into the mix, and I believe people are going to start becoming more selective on what they consume.
In a world of disinformation, trusted and authentic voices marrying experience with opinion will start becoming even more important.

Rewatching the original Matrix.
How much of a mind blowing epic movie was this!
Brings back a lot of memories.
Just a shame the series went too far and mucked it all up.
Heard a great expression I wanted to share:
โPeople above process.โ
In short, always remember the customer and put yourself in their shoes. What would this mean to them?
Too often organisations put internal processes above their product. Politics and often unnecessary bureaucracy above the external offering.
It should be the other way round.
The @Spotify โsong radioโ function could well be the best music discovery function in years.
Genius.
I always discover so many new artists and songs through it.
This Blue Monday, weโre embracing the blue.๐งIn the words of the late Dr. Wallace J. Nichols of The Blue Mind Movement, "Itโs important we have some kind of practice that keeps us calm, creative, compassionate, collaborative and courageous." #BlueMonday
Despite its rapid advancements, thereโs still something not quite right with a lot of #AI generated images and video.
Itโs missing something. Feels almostโฆsoulless?
I now understand why my father, and snr
men, have sheds and like to continuously tinker/potter about.
Week 2 into the Xmas holidays and Iโm ready to get back to a productive schedule.
Admittedly, Iโm not good at doing nothing ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Cleaned the garage, sorted bike, fixed a drawer and looking for next thing.
