Today commute, overhearing someone talking about customer details, the headphones person, and the sniffer, now picking his nose. All within 3 seats of me. Now the more serious infosec and cyber angle of man no.1 talking about account numbers, etc.

This is interesting, if I work flexibly and send emails early or late, I have no expectation that my colleagues, and or team need to respond if that’s not their working patterns. Surely mutual respect rather than contractual rules are needed bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-5…

I had some very sad news today the chap I considered to be my mentor, who gave me the confidence to join DfT, encouraged my personal growth, put faith in me when I was in personal crisis sadly passed away yesterday, to say I’m gutted is an understatement, thanks boss - RIP Kevin

I’m so grateful for the team I’ve got around me, some real experts in their fields, who know considerably more than I do, that’s the beauty of having a great team around you, it’s a bit cliched, however higher people who know more than you and let them do it

After an intense period of recruitment, I’ve now got my leadership team in place, and am delighted we can now move to the next phase of our Digital Service journey. I’m very lucky to work with such great and talented colleagues.

Really pleased to have our new Head of Info and Cyber Sec join this week, an important step in building our leadership team

Congratulations @thommeread announced as the new GDS CEO, good luck in the new role.

Incredibly proud that 93% of DfT staff are happy with the technology provision, this is a huge backing of the team who’ve worked so hard over the last 9 months, I’m so so grateful of the work people have put in
