Monday rituals
We were talking about Friday rituals, so I'm curious if you guys have any rituals for Monday? I wake up early to start my day with the maximum joy - delicious cup of coffee, a piece of cake (I have a sweet tooth), slow start and at least 30 min in silence to remember last week and have a high-level plan for the upcoming week. What about you?

Although I work from home, it seems like I can't take control of my Mondays. One of my primary project's steering committees has a status update meeting every Monday at 8:30AM. There's always prep to be done Monday morning as I'm rushing to catch up on what my working group accomplished Friday afternoon😅

@Gerard Pietrykiewicz unfortunately no - the first issue is my hours. Since I work half days M-F, I'm not available to oversee any progress made on Friday afternoons. This is also the case for the majority of our working group, where our hours don't necessarily overlap frequently enough. Second, this steering committee in particular prefers to hear about every single detail instead of the two major points: the status and budget health of the project. Too many variables that don't work with each other create a perfect storm.
A day of a PM
In one of my chats with @Harleen Seehra , she indicated that she would like to know what does a day of a Senior PM look like. I think a day is not enough, but I would like to put together a group call, maybe a workshop of sort, on how I structure my sprints and how I stucture work with my teams. Would any of you be interested in attending such workshop. Obviously I would be presenting the best case scenario, but still maybe some useful knowlege can be shared.

Thanks Gerard! Looking forward to seeing if this idea gets any traction in the group.
What’s your current ritual for ending the workweek?
I try to have a zero unread email in my inbox, and get all tasks to have a comment on them to provide an update. Some of my team and wider organization works shifts or are working in diffenret time zones, so I like to make sure that I end the week with everything buttoned up as much as I can. But how about you? Do you have a special ritual you have?

Since I'm mentored by my company's senior PM, we like to have a reflection on Friday afternoons on any situations that may have come up that we haven't discussed yet (mostly the smaller events we tend to brush off). For example, a tense moment occurred between myself and a colleague on a working group, and I didn't think much of it until I decompressed it with him.

@Gerard Pietrykiewicz exactly my thoughts. The only thing we carry over the weekend are the positives😁
What Happens When Bright Minds Don’t Stick to the Agenda :)
When bright minds collide, new formats are born. Gerard and I met up this Wednesday for a simple meet & greet...Instead? We left with a podcast concept for The PMO Strategy & Execution Hub— and a brand-new webinar idea for Bee Agile. We talked AI. Prompts. Agents. Bots.And what it really means to partner with machines in delivery. ⚡️ Stay tuned — something fresh is coming.

Looking forward to this!!
Mentoring Junior PMs?
Hi all, I spoke with Gerard regarding the following idea and think that it would be very beneficial to this group of high-potential individuals! As a Junior PM, I would like to get a sense of what your everyday work life is like, the situations you may run into with your working groups, steering committees, etc. and advice you can pass along to people like me! Doesn't have to be super formal. Let me know what you think!
