                  @Gina This is a huge problem people who barely sratched the surface think they can and do teach others without any self-awareness

                        @Gina I think that's an excellent idea and there would be a market out there. You have experience of large deployments and the real life problems companies (currently deeply embedded in Microsoft Office) might face and addressing their concerns.

                        This is a very different proposition from persuading Uncle Harry to write a letter using Libreoffice πŸ™‚

                              @Gina I remember our accountants moving us over to Xero, then sitting down with my partner to show her how to use it (I try to stay out of the accounts myself!), and after about a 30 minute session, genuinely asking her if she'd be open to them sending other clients in for her to teach because she clearly knows what she's doing now πŸ˜‚

                                @Gina If you've never seen this skit of Adam Driver playing an oil baron at career day, it resonates with the theme of these posts.
