Short bits of advice that don't quite fit in elsewhere.
- If your organization has brand guidelines/stylesheets/templates use them for every single document, presentation, spreadsheet, website you create. If you are thinking things through use the default template/theme in the tool of your choice.
- When you create documents, presntations, spreadsheets, or websites, use headings and all other elements. It makes everything else easier for everyone else.
- Use your own writing tool for thinking (I love Bear for this). This becomes the place you think and it's create to have a different environment. Switch it to your organization's standard tool when you are ready to share.
- Build a career by picking some thorny complex problems and work to solve those problems over the course of your career, no matter the job you have.
- When making a slide deck presentation, always use a full sentence as the title of each slide. When you read the slide titles, they should tell a clear story.
