Getting the jitters. Big presentation in 45 mins to the President and CEO, pitching the establishment of a new team... with me as the manager.

I really want this, so I am nervous.

Going back to practicing my PowerPoint now...

Good luck! You got this.

(Last-minute rehearsals don't work for me. Last-minute moment of introspection on the other hand does!)

Turns out I DO got this. They love the idea.

But can't afford the headcount right now. :-(

So I am working on a new plan to do some groundwork to build a platform for the new team (and provide benefits to the company while I'm at it), so that when the time comes, I'm the one they choose to lead the new team.

Wasn't what I was hoping for, exactly, but s'all good.
