These are the talks we had in September
Innovation Talk
We had two talks in September the first one was the Mini Company. Where we asked to come up with as many uses as possible for a paperclip.We had twenty two ideas such as making bracelets. Unfortunately we were beaten by an even more innovative team but I thought it was an amazing exercise as showed me that you can be innovative in all sorts of ways; you just have to put mind to it. This was a great 60 minutes
IT
IT is not for Geeks was the other talk I attended. This talk was about promoting the IT sector and encouraging us to consider it as future career. There so many opportunities for people at this new industry and a wide variety of skills are needed.
The presentation highlighted the certain perks of being in the IT sector and the benefits of working in places like Dell. One benefit that appealed to me was that you can work in so many locations, you aren’t necessarily tied to an office. You just need a wi-fi and a laptop. Companies like Dell have invested hugely in their work spaces and facilities such as Table Tennis help create positive work places.
