Staying the course

So it looks like I'll be staying on with the Interwoven team at DFAIT until next year, as the contract with Cursive has been extended into 2009, which could translate to mid-February depending on how many late nights lay ahead.

My content migration project deadline is December 31, 2008 and so far my team is doing an amazing job at hitting targets. As my first foray into people management on this scale, I have learnt a great deal from my peers and experienced colleagues. I have enjoyed the challenge of juggling 15 people between any number of concurrent site launches, ensuring that the team is working to capacity and that no site is under-serviced during our launch cycles.

There will be a two-week hiatus at the start of September, as we take a break and visit family on the other side of the world. Until the next post, enjoy your summer and make the most out of the sunshine.
