A New Desk

I like this idea that I read in an interview with Simon Waterfall of digital agency, Poke as reported in .net magazine.

Every four months, all 55 of their employees get up and move desks: 

Because you sit next to somebody new, you sit next to a different skill set or age group. It stops you becoming so introverted that you don’t accept the new……. it’s a great way to be inspired all the time.”

Spreading The Message

Monty Don in his new role as President of the Soil Association on how to get the message across, as reported in todays Guardian:

You don’t stand on the podium with a loud hailer telling people what you do, which the British absolutely hate. You’ve got to somehow get under the skin of the system and make lots and lots of small changes.
