workshop 1: 6 March 2014

My first Inspire workshop - wow what a lot to take in. I'll admit I felt a bit lost probably because I hadn't done the HMM module beforehand. That was because Feb-March is so crazy busy at work I just couldn't fit it into the work day - one of the things I hope to get out of this program is some time-management skills. this is an area I really need to get under control.

One takeaway from this workshop is that I can do the Inspire work at work.  This might not seem amazing but the idea of blocking out some time just for this work, like setting aside time for a meeting, was an epiphany for me.

Going through the 360 survey was very interesting, I learned a lot about myself but mainly that I perceive myself differently to my peers. The main thing I think I need to work on is having confidence in myself. If I can develop my confidence it will make things easier for me but also for my team because it will help me to be consistent and stable.

Actions from this workshop:

• start reading
• get the material organised
• start the HMM modules
