Who here is starting to see the pendulum swing on cloud? If sprawling cloud costs (and the inherent risk of misconfiguration) are on your mind, check out this research tool I developed with Tracy Woo as part of her wide body of work on cloud cost optimization. In this piece, we investigate how to chart the Total Economic Impact of building a FinOps practice at your organization, whether you opt for third party tools, managed services, cloud-native capabilities, or to DIY. May thanks to Tracy for the fascinating collaboration! https://lnkd.in/gcnBYU_D

Goal setting is such a simple exercise but most managers and employees have room to improve their process. In our April manager learning series we are focusing on the practice and key outcomes. Thank you Jamie Hand, Justin Allen, and Hannah Rice for your expertise on the panel. What is your golden nugget of wisdom as it relates to goal setting? Drop it in the comments.

On my mind ... aka OMM 😉 A manager named Bob was notorious for his terrible technical skills. One day, Bob tried to fix a server issue by repeatedly pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del. When a junior engineer asked what he was doing, Bob replied, "I’m rebooting the cloud!" The team burst into laughter. This humorous incident highlights an important leadership lesson: effective leaders don't need to know everything but must trust and empower their skilled team members. Good leadership isn't about knowing all the answers—it's about knowing where to find them and leveraging the strengths of your team. #leadership #fridayfunnies

Today I had the opportunity to sit on a panel about Goal Setting and Managing Performance for leaders at Protective. The facilitator Scott Terry asked the ~100 leaders on the call to name some of the benefits of effective goal setting. The results generated this word cloud. I'd just like to thank the person who wrote **my name** as a benefit of effective goal setting. I am sure it was an accident, but it gave me a chuckle when I was a little nervous. 🤣 #goalsetting #leadership #managerpanel #wordcloud

As we wrap up another week of soaring through the clouds, let’s take a moment to appreciate the captains of our ship—our leaders! Leadership in the cloud is not about steering the ship from the comfort of the cabin. It’s about braving the storms, charting unknown territories, and shining a light for others to follow. It’s about enabling each one of us to reach for the stars while keeping our feet firmly on the ground (or, should we say, the cloud!) ☁️ #leaders #cloudcomputing #visionaryleadership #astelsystems
