Wrapping up
1. My review strategy is...
2. Advice for my team is...
3. One example I want to remember...
It’s the end of a long conference and our
brains are full.
Use the paper in front of you to write a note
to your future self. Take a photo of your note
and add it to your calendar for review in next
month.
