Crashed the mobile team townhall yesterday to see all the amazing stuff they are shipping and their ongoing quest to evangelize raccoons and honestly idk what was the proudest moment... Okay it was the raccoon thing. Culture is important.

New team is like “what’s up with raccoons” and I’m like “raccoons are like software engineers, they are trying to live their best lives but sometimes they are stuck in the trash” and yeah I guess that is my management philosophy.

MichelleBee in the Irish butter museum and learning how in 1962 they branded all Irish butter “KerryGold” with tv as the main medium and I am thinking of you. Cork needs to be our 4th city 😍
-
Oh my god in the butter museum and this place is incredible.
-
“The people of medieval Ireland elevated cattle raising to the level of a national pastime. Almost as much time appears to have been spent in tending to cattle as in conducting expeditions to steal them.” 😂
-
“Driving off undefended cattle may often have been an easy task. But returning home safely with the spoils was often extremely difficult. Even with a good head start the raiders’ escape would be hampered by herds of cattle.”
-
“The more dating conducted raids over hundreds of miles. Toirrdhealbhach O Conchobhair, king of Connacht between 1106 and 1156, led no less than 23 major cattle raids between 1111-1154. His forays often involved considerable distances through inhospitable and hostile terrain.”
-
“For any Irish kind there could be no more flattering obituary than the claim that he, more than any of his rivals, had commanded the most cattle raids.”
-
There’s a song playing called “please leave my butter alone” ahahaha oh my

Convinced ckymnstr to see whatever random thing is on at the Cork Opera tonight and she’s all “do you know what it is” and I’m like “isn’t that part of the fun?” And apparently not because she looked it up and we’re seeing some kind of indie Irish music 🎶

As a leader it is your job to find people who are ready for what’s next and help them level up! Sometimes this means bringing people into your team, and sometimes it means supporting people transitioning out of it. In a healthy organization people advance. Do your part!
-
This usually looks like behind the scenes advocacy and coaching - it’s not a big, public thing. I will credit the people who have helped me in this way _forever_ and part of that credit is paying it forward as much as I can.
-
Ask yourself who you have noticed and supported in this way, consider if you could do more, and if it is just people like you. Recognizing people’s individual strengths is the start of this work. Of course you should also check your bias but that is being a decent human 101.
-
I love to find people who are doing this and talk to them about whether they are interested in leadership. My best tip for finding them is always paying a lot of attention to who people say have helped or impacted them. The same names come up _again_ and again.
-
TL;DR: if you think there’s not enough leadership in your organization perhaps you’re not recognizing or supporting it enough (yet). Be the change you want to see!
-
tcn33 I would say some of the best are the ones who do not give themselves credit for how much they are _already_ doing.

With Americans who’ve been talking about avocados for ~10 minutes and finally I understand some of these complaints about millennials. Irish avocados are lacking apparently, and I’m like “on the upside! We have healthcare! And a government that hasn’t openly embraced fascism!”

Super psyched for Folletto's talk this morning on feedback! I saw a preview and it was BRILLIANT! Starting shortly! #WCEU
-
We need to relearn feedback. We think it's natural and that we can do it, but it's also a skill that can be grown and it's one you want to grow in your team. Folletto #WCEU
-
We think feedback works but it can be just regression to the mean Folletto #wceu
-
We say "negative" feedback but let's reframe it to feedback that you know what to do with. "Positive" feedback is confirmation feedback - keep doing what you're doing. Folletto #WCEU
-
Undermining feedback - feedback given to make ourselves feel better. Natural, but work to change - give supportive feedback instead. This is radical candor. Rude does not mean candid (or sincere!) You can be sincere without being rude - care about the person Folletto #WCEU
-
Communication styles differ, when giving feedback adapt to the communication style of the person you are speaking to. Also consider language barriers and cultural differences. Assume misunderstandings happen. Clarify the definitions you're using. Folletto #WCEU
-
Ask if someone wants feedback! Ask for feedback - be explicit about the kind of feedback you want. What kind of level of feedback do you want? Detailed or structural? Allows better and more efficient communication. Ask specific questions without priming. Folletto #WCEU
-
Anonymous feedback shouldn't happen in a good environment in a good team. Normally not very effective. Want an environment where you can have open discussion. Sometimes it's useful, via proxy or via a tool. But use anonymous feedback as little as possible. Folletto #WCEU
-
Asking gives power to the person you are giving feedback to. It’s more likely to be taken well. Folletto #wceu
-
Timing is important, as close to the event as possible. Be specific, don't be general. Give the right feedback at the right time - noone likes rework. Folletto #WCEU
-
If something good happened, you don't want to kill it. Give someone the time to enjoy the moment! Don't immediately follow with "that was good, but...". Be clear what assumptions you are coming from - make them explicit. Folletto #WCEU
-
Ask the stupid question. Often teams think everyone "should" know and they don't clarify. Don't be afraid of it - be proud that you had the courage to! Folletto #WCEU
-
Talk about the thing, not the individual. Makes it less personal. Folletto #WCEU
-
Genius way to give feedback when it IS personal Folletto #wceu
-
Make sure you give someone a way forward. Folletto #WCEU
-
The brilliant Folletto is debunking the shit sandwich. It’s not about the concept, it’s about the time. Great teams give 6x as much confirming feedback as constructive.
-
Build a safe zone when this discussion can happen. Pull people up with confirmation feedback, push people with adjustments. Say sorry, give agency (why asking is important), show vulnerability. Folletto #WCEU
-
When receiving feedback, breath! Separate the personal from the objective, then focus on the objective. Split the solutions they are giving from the problems they are surfacing. Check their assumptions. If they don't do it, you need to do the work yourself. Folletto #WCEU
-
If it's hard feedback, pair up and ask someone else too review your take. Are you taking it too personally? Seek out an objective perspective to grow yourself and improve. Folletto #WCEU
-
In OSS, everyone can come in and do "drive by" feedback. Take a deep breath (or three). Approach it like research, analyse it in a quantative and qualative way. Hard to check assumptions, but you can review which group they represent - blogger / dev / biz owner. Folletto #WCEU
-
Sometimes you are not the right person to answer. There might be a more informed person to do it who has a better perspective - ask them. When people give you feedback they give you time, so make sure you acknowledge everyone. Folletto #WCEU
-
This talk was epic, Folletto is amazing 😍 #wceu

bugKrusha You worked hard and you deserve all of it 💞

“Don’t feed the trolls” only works in the micro, it doesn’t work at scale. Our tools don’t handle coordinated efforts to attack well. Folletto #wceu

On point. Is Your Emotional Intelligence Authentic, or Self-Serving? hbr.org/2018/05/is-your-emotional-intelligence-authentic-or-self-serving /via skamille
-
Since we can’t seem to get it together to stop using the word “emotional” about perfectly calm women, I’m now describing every dude who has a feeling as “emotional” until the word becomes completely meaningless. Like what happened with the word “innovation”.
-
Never a good day for your ex to nearly run you over, but when you got up at 4am and spent half the day in CDG has to be a particularly bad one...

Every morning this week I realize again “oh shit I’m giving a talk on Friday” and I think it’s the lack of planes involved that is confusing me? Cork is associated with house angst and speaking angst, nothing else.

My mentions: people saying I’m mean for calling nazi apologism what it is. I give no fucks. If you’re not angry right now, you’re not paying attention. If you don’t see parallels, you have no idea about history. Stop being a fucking nazi apologist & I’ll stop calling you one.
