I have coffee with someone from ITMA and we discuss our
plans for namby-pamby non-core training.
We make a long list of the training events we are going to
organise. But they are unlikely to
happen soon, because neither of us has done our namby-pamby time management
training. So we still fall into that
trap of thinking something sounds a great idea and forgetting that we haven’t
written up the last great idea yet.
Afterwards, I chair a namby-pamby non-core webinar about performance management. I begin with a very silly introduction in a very silly voice. As a result, the delegates turn the volume right down on their speakers and can’t subsequently hear the presenter. Sigh. I guess if the VeePee were a paid position I would have been fired long ago. As it is, they are just grateful I didn’t use the Cowtrackingclangingthingen from Österreich.
I then have a chat with Mr Lampert about the shouty things
he is going to put in his next e-newsletter.
He knows by now, as do the webinar delegates, that if you need shouty
things, I am the person to come to. Mr
Davies can also do shouty stuff, but his tends to come out decorated with swear-words. Mr Lampert is not allowed to put swear-words
in the e-newsletter.
Finally, I have a chat with Spreadsheet Spurgeon, about
CIPA’s budget for the year after the year after the one that happened a while
ago, which is two years before the one that nobody cares about yet. He shows me a spreadsheet. He asks how many namby-pamby non-core
webinars we are going to put on next year.
I say thousands, because I remember the plans I made with my friend from
ITMA. But, I add, they may not be as
profitable as last year because I might not have time to organise
speakers.
