Beginnings
A thought for your day, with my good wishes …
Blossom by blossom the spring begins
― Algernon Charles Swinburne
If you’d like to see more of my photography and videos, click here for my Instagram feed. For the next while, I’m continuing to concentrate on IG stories (simply click on my headshot to see the stories) rather than posts, and you’ll see plenty of uplifting spring images. I’ll also be on the road again in a couple of weeks, so you can look forward to videos and photos there from some wonderful locales in Europe, the UK and Asia.
Wednesday’s Words: Generative AI
Generative AI is the latest term in this weekly feature I first introduced here on Exceptional EA in 2015.
Why should you turn to this weekly feature? A strong vocabulary can contribute to our career success. Whether you’re conversing with senior colleagues, other stakeholders or your peers, the extent to which you’re familiar with language used around executive tables can impact others’ perceptions of your professionalism and business insights. It’s also helpful to ensure currency with terminology used in meetings you may attend or record.
Check here each Wednesday, or on whatever days you like, for additional words to help maintain or elevate your currency with business terminology. Enter the term “Wednesday’s Words” in the search field any time you visit, and happy reading!
Spring
A thought for your day, with my good wishes on this first day of Spring 2024 …
That is one good thing about this world … there are always sure to be more springs.
