Chapel Street runs from West to East across the top of Manchester. It is on the boundary between the city to the south and Salford to the north. I think it might be in Salford, which is a city in itself. I don’t know if it is eponymous but there is a chapel within the … Continue reading Unfolding plans 79 – the Independent Chapel
Unfolding plans 78 – less magpie and more moth
What are the most important things that I need to be working on? That’s what Mike asked me. It seems like an easy question but in truth can be really hard to answer. How much of what I do is driven by circumstances and how much is in line with my own ambitions and focus? … Continue reading Unfolding plans 78 – less magpie and more moth
Unfolding plans 75 – having a fresh face helps
A future driven by the customer, that was the message that Paul left us with on his last slide at the presentations. I’d asked for volunteers from the management team this time as I think having a fresh face helps to keep them well… fresh. Paul was the first to put his hand up. He … Continue reading Unfolding plans 75 – having a fresh face helps
Unfolding plans 73 – The Myth of Sisyphus
It has been some year. They seem to be coming along faster and faster these days. No sooner have we planned for this one then we are half way through it.

Again it’s been a fascinating day with lots of challenging topics. There are two themes … Continue reading Unfolding plans 72 – What is holding us back?
Unfolding plans 71 – Thinking Digital makes your head hurt #TDC15
I’ve been at Thinking Digital today. It started yesterday afternoon with some workshops but the main event takes place today and tomorrow. If you have never been you should. Once you have been you’ll want to come back again and again. It is the must attend event of the year. So why is it such … Continue reading Unfolding plans 71 – Thinking Digital makes your head hurt #TDC15
Unfolding plans 68 – I’m really really looking forward to #TDC15
Next week I will be attending Thinking Digital 2015, one of the leading events in the North East digital calendar. I’m not sure if this is the third time or the fourth that I have been. It doesn’t matter because they are great events and I take so much away from them. They are an … Continue reading Unfolding plans 68 – I’m really really looking forward to #TDC15
Our inexorable journey towards our virtual destiny
So you thought I was a bit off-beam with my blog 'And man will live for evermore' in that man and machine will become one? It wasn’t meant to be a dystopian view of how the machines would take over, where our creations would eventually enslave us but rather a utopian view of how man … Continue reading Our inexorable journey towards our virtual destiny
Relativity
Einstein was right, time is relative. It all depends upon what is going on and where you are. We all know that time flies when you are enjoying yourself and can drag on and on when you are in a meeting or doing the ironing (yeah right!). I notice this differential in the speed of … Continue reading Relativity
