Today was intense considering the work load I am capable of handling in the past. I am responsible for the majority of the press release for a new product (which or business is built around) we have been developing since July 09. It has been extremely helpful having a lot of the team available to help me put together the pieces but I feel it takes a lot of effort to organze what I need done and to review it. I did a test to figure out which tasks I should take care of and which should be delegated.
This is difficult when so much is on the line and I am the head figure, but it is important to allow trust in your co workers and give them tasks to help them grow. I think our intern Anthony has been learning a lot regarding marketing and launches. I am trying to figure out what interest Tyler the most. I can count on him to tackle nearly any task, but I am uncertain how to demonstrate a learning/fun moment. I know I just need to spend more time communicating with him to learn more about his goals.
I was involved in the video shoot for our new bitFlip add on. We also recorded some footage for the secret product. I am really excited to get the footage and edit it for the press release. We had a friend of the teams, Dorian, shoot the videos. He was really good and constructive in the actions and shots he wanted.
Sticking within the theme of communication...
On the epic walk to the train their was a group of really loud guys. A guy much like myself walked by and must have muttered something bc he was then aggressively approached and pushed by one of the men. What to do, what should I do?
I decided to not touch either of them but stand near the guy being attacked waiting for a fist to fly to help defend him. Thank God nothing happened but it is troubling. Do you need to be loud enough to be heard a city bock away to communicate your point? Sometimes I guess!
