Had fun and games today at work. As part of our regular consultants “Brown Bag” lunches, one of the chaps had organised a Pecha Kucha event.

The idea is that to prevent death by Powerpoint, all presentations are rigidly formatted to be only 20 slides long with an automatic transition of 20 sec. This means that all presentations are fixed at 6 mins 40 secs.

Like a complete newbie, I volunteered, of course. And, in fact all of the presenters seemed to be sub-year chaps like myself. Guess we must have something to prove……

Anyway, mine was on FIX from my old Financial Fusion days. Seemed to go fairly well, despite only having about 10 mins practice before hand. Got beaten by the slides a couple of times.

I think that’ll be enough volunteering for a bit.
