LATE-JUNE. We're in the foggy part of the year, which means the redwoods are happy. If the redwoods are happy, I'm happy.
This Week in Rands
There are parts of writing the next book that are quite easy. I am documenting a habit, practice, or hobby that has become instinct to me. Meaning that, whenever I land at a new gig, I just start doing this thing. I don’t even think about it.
The hard part is recognizing I am doing this. Instinct has taken over, which means BAM, suddenly there is a new All Hands meeting. Welcome! Actually, that’s not the hard part. The hard part is running dozens of All Hands meetings that were somewhere between boring and just awful, and then taking the time to figure out what worked and what did not. The hard part is sitting through others’ All Hands, ignoring the boring, and finding the wisdom.
This article does not claim to be the best structure for an All Hands meeting, but it is the result of multiple decades of trying to find the best parts of every bad All Hands I’ve ever run or experienced.
