I can’t wait to grill @ben-legg @fiona @jesus-iniesta on Friday! Looking forward to some juicy questions from the community audience too…

Is there a replay of this? (I have a client at these times on a Friday hence missing all these Fireside chats!)
-
Yes, it wil be made available over the next few days.
You can find the recordings of our previous firesides in our video library: https://portfolio-collective.com/video-library/

Thank you! I must look into changing this time to make networking sessions! Great prompt to check in with my Client to do this!

Hi everyone!
Excited to have you all join our Catapult Course. I’m Fiona, COO and Co-Founder here at TPC.
I’ll be seeing you throughout your course, but if you have any questions or just want to say – just drop me a line.
See you all later!

I am looking for an events planner that can help TPC with our first live event (it’s going to be a big one!). Anyone in our community that freelances as a corporate event planner??

Would this be of interest to any of our community members who have backgrounds in events- @vandergaag, @adasat, @nicola-twiston-davies, @trandinh, @erica? Or do you know anyone who may be interested?

I can recommend someone, will get her to join the portfolio party 🙂 Natasha Russell Events – inside, outside, online, on the moon🚀 https://natasharussell.co.uk/

Thanks so much for the recommendation Nicci- will check out her website now

This is so exciting @fiona! Can you let me know more about what you’re wanting to do? I might be able to help or know someone that can 🙂
-
Ooh you know @nicola-twiston-davies I had you in mind for part of the event that I wanted to speak to you about anyway. Will message you now to set up a call x
-
-
@fiona I’ve put out a call to my contact in this area. I’ll let you know if and when I hear back. Will need to understand scope?
-
Hey Zed, thanks so much. Will reply to the email you sent earlier.
-
-
This sounds exciting! I know a few people in this area that may do this as a side project – let me know if you need more help and I’ll hit them up for availability.
-
Hey @janischan – this would be amazing if you could!

If you’re looking for a typewriter poet for this event, just to spice things up creatively and bring a little uniqueness, you know where I am…
-
Actually @lizziebourne – watch this space on how we might use your poem. Sorry we haven’t came back to you, things have been hectic but we will definitely be utilising it in the coming months!

Hello @fiona, I do corporate planning and organizing event. Happy to help 😎
-
@ruthgpen – great, I will send you a dm now.

Aside from building the awesome community that is TPC this past year. Our other incredible feat was building the best team I’ve ever worked with.
To be able to get together this morning with at least 10 of us (when we have national and international members!) and celebrate with a birthday brunch was very special.
Without these innovative, hardworking, highly intelligent, super talented folks – there would be no TPC!
THANK YOU for being the absolute #dreamteam

Side hustles are a tremendous way of starting (and gliding) as a Portfolio Professional.
But it can be daunting trying to juggle a full-time job with a part-time gig. Here’s a great article from a Google engineer and VC investor on how she navigates this exciting career choice.
I found it especially interesting after our great chat at our Let’s Talk event on Indecision & Inertia this week. She gives tips on how she stays productive and how she keeps her life balanced.

Using the calendar to plan and ensure appropriate focus on each activity is sooooo helpful

Following on from our chat on Tues evening, I thought you would find this interesting – @ben-legg, @lexi-radcliffe-harttpc, @claire, @janischan, @anastasia-trifonoff, @lisasolomon, @tim_walters, @peter-domican, @angiebishop, @hgill, @atownsend

I love this, and I’m starting to enjoy working out what planning works for me and using it to upskill into my role and beyond. Her points about reflection also link nicely to a lot of what we’ve been discussing 1:1 @fiona and the discussions we’ve had a team and a community. Also reminded me of Leila’s podcast (https://www.buzzsprout.com/1353208/episodes/6104359) about how she and her husband reflect personally and professionally. Thanks for sharing!
-
I’m not sure that looks much a balance (each to their own) but I like Timeblocking as a technique and using it much more these days but I’d only do it a day in advance. This looks too constrained if people are trying to schedule time with you.
-
Definitely interesting and glad it works for her. I’m exhausted thinking about that schedule though, however, we each define fun and productive in different ways so this must energise her. As someone who is planning on integrating Coaching into Portfolio though, the multiple coaches she has is interesting in itself.
-
I find this really inspiring. I love to see how other people plan their day and organize themselves. I really like the strengths weakness analysis. I have to say I have been the most productive this week after our call. I added more to basecamp and calendar and shared ideas with team to be more accountable. I am going to create a ton of content and stop fighting the fear of putting myself out there.
-
kudos to this person for organization and productivity, but the lack of blank space in this grid would stress me out. I think i would feel anxious about constantly chasing the next slot in my calendar. it doesn’t look like there’s much room here for spontaneity, serendipity, ducking into a bookstore or an unknown street… Some of the best decisions I’ve made (in retrospect) came from thinking while observing my surroundings over a coffee, or an unexpected conversation with…
-
Absolutely @anastasia-trifonoff and I fully think people need to work at their most comfortable self and realise that we all can achieve when we set our minds to it. Whichever style is your best self 🙂
-
I think there’s a tendency to undervalue slack time (not to be confused with ”big S” Slack time, which is a lot harder to undervalue), especially when surrounded by brilliant people and datasets. Embracing that slack time is one of not many remaining options these high-performing teams have in their perennial fight against groupthink. And my money is that they’ll learn faster.
