Building a stronger team, one huddle at a time.   Our monthly GGOB (Great Game of Business) huddles bring our field and office teams together to celebrate wins, share learned lessons and tackle challenges head-on. These sessions keep everyone on the same page, working in lock-step towards our quarterly and annual goals. A big shoutout to our teams at Latimer 7.1 / 7.7, Aldergrove Town Centre, Walnut Park, Hive 2 and Hayer Town Centre, for their grit and determination, keeping us ahead of the game.   Check out these highlights from our latest huddle as we put a bow on Q2!   #BuildingPeople #BuildingProcess #Construction #Goals

My heart is asking me to listen on sidewalks a lot and double down on writing my book on Sidewalk Talk. And May marks 9 years of Sidewalk Talk. Happy Birthday Sidewalk Talk. 🎂 Holy $hittballs you have taught me a lot. I am doing "book therapy" right now because I want to say some dangerous stuff about our dehumanizing ways. I want to be clear in my psyche as I write. The Identity Trap (yes a nod to Yascha Mounk's book of the same name) we are in right now I will roar about. Listening on sidewalks has chipped away at my reverence to identity obsession while I remain committed to inclusion and justice. I am glad to have sorted how to run Sidewalk Talk sustainably to my spirit while allowing it to safely expand. I burnt myself out three years ago. Lots of soul work, mistakes, learning boundaries. Operationally, Sidewalk Talk has expanded beyond a background checked chapter leader model where folks must pay to be a leader bc the application process is costly. Many just wanted to listen with a friend and not do a chapter. So...Tah Dah...we listened. Sidewalk Talk now gives you the "How To" to grab a friend and go listen in a friend group on the Sidewalk safely and effectively for FREE ... not even needing to be expressly part of Sidewalk Talk. A complete democratization. We still charge money for our trainings on Listening and Conflict resolution and chapter leadership so we can cover operating expenses. But everything else is freely offered. Cool eh? Go listen? www.sidewalk-talk.org

Thank you to Aaron Z. Lewis -- steward of Temperance Alley Garden -- for speaking to the GA HQ this week about your study of time, reconnecting to natural clocks, and reconnecting to spaces by understanding our place in their life cycle. As the founder of a tech company, I translate most teachings into the "tech" framework. A few ideas inspired by Aaron: 1. We should do a better job explaining to people the company's timeline and their place in history -- I think understanding time context in a company is important. 2. I realize many of GA employee's fondest memories connect to monthly and annual traditions -- St Patrick's Day Shamrock Madness, etc. We need more clockwork events.  3. I think buying a little hourglass to help us complete tasks within a certain time frame is great. Checking your phone and computer clocks = distractions. I am always so inspired by Aaron and his work -- he is one of the great community builders in DC. If any of you have not been to Temperance Alley Garden, I encourage you to check out the event schedule (https://lnkd.in/gqbwBUfe) and stop by!
