Why don’t you smegging well smeg off, you annoying little smeggy smegging smegger!


I am so glad no-one has ever said that to me!  But I am sure there may be a few other words said when I finally leave Parliament.

After 8 years, give or take a couple of weeks I am finally leaving the hallowed halls known as The Houses of Parliament.  There have been good times, and some not so good times, but the people have always kept me going.

So what can I say I have achieved during my tenure. 
  • Built a 12 person training team
  • Won the Learning & Performance Institute Training manager of the year TWICE
  • Took the Parliamentary ICT Training team to the finals TWICE
  • Educated thousands of people who work in, around and outside Parliament
  • Introduced some cutting edge theories and technologies
  • Survived a General Election
  • Folded a 12 person training team (everyone was transitioned to new and exciting roles via promotions and transfers)
  • Went online
  • Chaired and keynoted across the United Kingdom discussing taking your training out of the classroom and online
  • Coached some excellent leaders
  • Left Parliament
Doesn't sound much in the scheme of things, but had an absolute blast doing it and met some fabulous people on the way.

Thank you to all the people who have supported me and made me smile.
