Makers, what are you working on this week? (w/c August 26)
Hi Makers! I'm working on finding podcasts with a similar audience to ours to arrange promo ad swaps, and also focusing on finding great guests for online discussions in the Makers community. What are you working on this week?
How do you like to be managed?
I've read about teams that create user manuals for themselves and must say I love this idea. I like to be managed by given clear goals and fixed deadlines and opportunities to raise blockers. I operate well with autonomy and get demotivated when faced with micro management, and lack of clarity around decisions and motivations. I also prefer direct communications and find passive aggressiveness really distracting and unproductive. I'd love to hear from you - how do you like to be managed?
Which platform do you use for personal branding?
Please tell me why in your replies. Would love to hear any tips. Since 2016 I've been using Medium to reflect on my career path, share learnings and mark major career milestones. It's been a great way to expand my network and increase my career capital. I also copy these over to LinkedIn where I have far more followers and connections. I enjoy writing so it's a fun and valuable way for me to work on my personal brand. I also use Twitter for meeting new folks but I prefer creating long form text versus threads. Tell me about you!
