We had another DevTeam meeting today. Since our recent departmental shifting, I’ve been asked to serve as the Programmer Manager. I’m pleased and humbled by the change – knowing I will grow both personally and professionally – and get some real change made.
Today I took more of a leadership role at the DevTeam meeting, with Alex and I driving the meeting. He’s been great and so instrumental in getting these meetings going. Now it’ll be my responsibility to keep them going and make sure they are valuable and productive. My desire is to find ways to build the team, work more efficiently and have a bit of fun in the process. Who says Nerds should be boring? Seriously.
Anyway, my todo list seems to grow daily as I steadily approach the birth of my first child. I’m really hoping to complete many projects before he arrives. I think I can get caught up, but we’ll see. Much remains to be done. And the days pass.
I’m thankful for the opportunity to affect change. I think change IS the only constant. And there is so much more we can do for our students, staff and faculty. I want to see WOU shine. As a team, I think we can make it happen.
