Last week was great in many ways; a highlight was speaking at #AMABerlin with Jakob and meeting many friends there plus meeting new people :)

Many hugs, many discussions, and good talks.

BUT I had low quality sleep every night and not even enough of that, so I was getting more and more drained.

Next talk from #amaberlin is online: Ana Nad & Lejla Vulović discuss real-world challenges managing multi-site banking product teams.

Back home after a most amazing @amaconf.bsky.social 🤩. After two years as a speaker this time as an attendee – and it was absolutely worth it. So many inspirations from the sessions & the discussions inbetween 😊

It was great to meet you all (again) 🙏. See you next year!

A Big Thank You to all the speakers, the attendees, the sponsors, our helpers, WECAP GmbH, Palais Kulturbrauerei and of course the orga team and program committee for making all of this possible.

A speaker got sick at #amaberlin

Me:
"I am happy to fill in tomorrow afternoon; I did "We did more managers" recently, so give me ten minutes, and I can do it"

Also me:
Plan: Flip through the slides to be ready for tomorrow...

Reality: change some slides and the flow of the presentation
