Speaking

In my last post I spoke about my delight at being selected to speak at PowerShell Conference Europe 2022. I don’t usually do a post-event write-up but this year, this event, was special. And I wanted to say a few things about it.

The first year of PackagingCon was 2021 and I had the pleasure of speaking! First year, and I was there.

Really happy to introduce the concept of a Windows package manager, with my talk titled What Is Chocolatey, The Package Manager For Windows? to a predominantly Linux and Mac audience.

On 14 January I will be presenting, virtually, to the Glasgow Data User Group. This will be the first time I have presented The What, Where and Why of Git to an audience.

The first ever #BridgeConf was awesome. Really enjoyed presenting to PowerShell peers from the PowerShell Slack / Discord #bridge channel.

Speaking for the first time at PowerShell Conference Europe, in the beautiful Hannover Congress Centrum in Hannover, Germany was a real highlight of my speaking career. No matter how much preparation I put into the talks, none of my demos worked when I arrived!

As I mentioned in my last post, I will be giving my Git Fundamentals - Open up a world of community and collaboration three times this month and now we are ready for time number two!

Come along to the DevOps North East User Group to hear myself and Craig Porteous[t|b] talk about The PowerShell Standards Agency and, as I said, my talk on Git Fundamentals - Open up a world of community and collaboration.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted. Work. Life. And speaking. Have all taken it’s toll on my time. It’s always at the back of my mind when I come across a problem, solve it and think ‘hey that would make a good blog post’. And then promptly get wrapped up in something else and that solution never gets shared.

… but that does lead me nicely to my next big knowledge sharing event (it’s like I planned this post!).
