This was my big work day. I distilled my fifteen week Entrepreneurship in Entertainment Technology class down to a five hour Master Class.
Forty four people signed up for the class, all Kiwis, with a variety of backgrounds and experience from students to business owners to producers to representatives from NZ Trade and Enterprise. I had timed out the whole day on my notes and was right on schedule until about half way through. Utimately I ran long by about 15 minutes and sadly had to rush the last section. The people in the class made this a very enjoyable experience – I wasn’t nervous about having enough material (in fact I was throwing stuff out right up until yesterday), but I was a bit concerned about keeping everyone engaged though a five hour session. As it turned out we had a great dynamic – people shared their experiences, asked questions, and participated in some great discussions. I’m excited now about an opportunity to do this again, with obvious tuning based on today’s experience. And lemon and honey tea to fight off a subsequent day of hoarseness.
There were about 40 people in attendence, but I only remembered to take the picture after the class was over. These are most of the survivors.
While I was at the conference, Sarah was learning more about Wellington at the Wellington City Museum and the local shopping district.
We had dinner at Ambeli, an excellent restaurant recommended by my buddy Jeff. Thanks, Jeff!
