Really looking forward to this years @OPS_Ireland Innovation Conference in Cork City Hall with @Microsoftirl 💡

[Jade O'Toole @jadeinnovates]

I’ve been trying this lately and it’s made such a positive difference - portion of the day allocated to calls and the other portion to getting work done!

Too many meetings at work? How to stop meetings madness: 1) Pre-block time for key tasks 2) Schedule all must-have meetings 3) Delegate/empower 4) Declutter & eliminate 5) Optimise frequency/duration 6) Stack & combine 7) Review 1/12 & 3/12: https://t.co/CjwZkLknDp By @techtello

@MazzucatoM @edbookfest Excellent session - can’t wait to read the new book next year! 📚

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

"A simple guide on words to avoid in government". It's best not to use "key" (doesn't add anything) or "deliver" (use "make" or "create"). Also on the list: "streamline", "land", "drive", "tackle", "ringfenced", "incentivise" and "portal": https://t.co/qgP83X5u0u V @apoliticalco

[Quality at GOSH @QualityatGOSH]

The QI Team have designed a How to Guide for Fishbone Diagrams! Have you ever used a Fishbone Diagram to identify your root causes? 🐟#TopTipTuesday #FishboneDiagrams #QITwitter #QI

[Dividendexa 💸 @dividendexa]

Not "later"
Not "next week"
Not "when you have more experience"
Not "when you have more time"

Start right now.

[Jade O'Toole @jadeinnovates]

@stephenanderson Thank you for sharing! May I ask for the name of the book? 📖

[Jade O'Toole @jadeinnovates]

Love this - number 3 is the one that I struggle with most! Learning to not get so attached with an idea/solution one day at a time 😎

[Stephen P. Anderson @stephenanderson]

I’m reading a book on architecture, and WOW—I think this nearly sums up my approach to design! 😍

All of these—but especially items 4, 5, 8, and 9—do a great job articulating the nuanced details of a learning focus (over say a delivery or shipping focus).

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

For transformational change, we don't need the most innovative, dynamic individuals; we need the best teams. Most job specs focus on task-driven skills, not collaboration skills. Time to rethink how we evaluate/recruit/manage/train talent https://t.co/saUukyGOWI By @Digitaltonto
