Anyone ever concerned they deliver work too quickly? Have certain milestones set out in the SOW, but seem to be way ahead (1.5 months). Do I deliver what I have or delete some content kick my feet up

Granted you confirm what expected deliverables are you and you actually are ahead of schedule

Review what you have, get a second opinion from someone you respect, and submit it. Yeah you can coast of course but don't you want to show that you're excelling so you can get positive feedback at year end as well as develop positive relationships

Really depends if its fixed cost. Client will not be happy if they clearly overpaid by a significant margin

Fixed price or T&M? And what do you stand to gain from showing your hand?

Thats on the partner or director. I dont think OP is either and probably is not a manager.

Do an analysis of what's gained in respect/rating vs what's lost in the extra work they'll heap on you as long as you work for them, you have the time

I’m currently working with a senior level HR candidate. This individual has a doctorate in business with a focus in HR, her SPHR, Federal, and private sector experience at the singer level, and has a fabulous personality. I’m curious is anyone else having difficulties play some candidates like this? At this point I’m starting to think it’s racial or her sex based of the lack of interest in this candidate. Any thoughts?

Many of you have young kids... are there any moms of teens here?

I am at a point where my teen's newfound "independence" is starting to impact my focus and time at work - his running off to hang with friends without permission, etc is becoming a distraction during the workday, and the impact has definitely been noticed by my superiors at work.

The issues with the kid are being handled appropriately - this is more about how to overcome perception at work

Allyship
I recently failed in an opportunity to show allyship. During a meeting, the presenter called an attendee the English version of the attendee’s (ethnic) name.

I noticed it right away, and thought about it but failed to correct them. The person whose name was colonized was very hurt and expressed it.

Next time, I won’t hesitate. I’ll be ready next time.

Have you had any similar experiences?
