Heading home

Friday, January 18th, 2008

Sitting in Cape Town International Airport, we’re finally heading home. Seems like we’ve been away for a long time. In fact, taking into account Christmas, I’ve hardly been home in Sheffield since 21st December. It’ll be nice to be back for a bit. Though it’s only for a couple of weeks before we head to […]

Opening night

Friday, October 12th, 2007

This Sunday gone was Mosaic’s first public gathering. It was a big step for us. For the first three of these monthly gatherings we’re going through a series we’re calling ‘Heroes‘. And we were really pleased with how this first one went.
It was held in a great venue called the Urban Deli, right in the […]

Cheap labour

Heading for LA

Monday, April 2nd, 2007

Yes, in exactly four weeks I’m going to be flying to Los Angeles for a week. My main reason for going is that I am going to be doing two days of training with the Gallup organisation that will officially certify me as a Strengths coach (linked with the Gallup StrengthsFinder assessment). I’m really excited […]

Chaordic

Friday, March 9th, 2007

Linked with the 6 month online training course I’m on at the moment, we’ve been dissecting a very interesting interview this week with a guy called Dee Hock. Dee Hock is the founder and former CEO of Visa International. He’s written a book called Birth of the Chaordic Age (which I’ll definitely be adding to […]
