Landed back in NZ yesterday, grateful that I could see my best mate even though he can no longer talk from his brain cancer. We just held hands & had a moment. I’m glad I made it home in time. So many tears 😢

Introducing my Copilot, he’s always on my shoulder whispering instructions & advice.
The standards you set yourself as a leader is the level your team will lower themselves to.
50 years since my first walk around Virginia Lake with Mum :)
I discovered a fabulous book shop in Foxton today. Love the themed sections!
Just had a great reminder that your determination & good habits will have a greater impact on you than AI or any tech for that matter. It came from a mate who had to learn to walk again this year. Do what matters.
Beautiful day for a kayak to Sumner Beach. I really do live in the best part of New Zealand 🤩
Great day at Difinity Conference learning about Microsoft Fabric, PowerBI & AI, while catching up with some of my favourite people :)
I still can’t believe Nick is gone. I can’t express how much he meant to me, always there when I needed him. A great man.
The Microsoft screwdriver set I got at the MVP summit combined with my Swedish ancestry & wife’s retail store collided today! #MVPBuzz #IKEA #DarcyBoutique

Plan out your schedule for #msignite next week. Sessions are mostly locked with times and rooms identified. Don’t forget Labs have an RSVP option to save your seat, but if it’s full, you can still go and join the waiting list that opens 10 mins before doors close for any open seats. Stay FLEXIBLE.
