Bonus Content: After the show Ash shared the S.T.A.R. method with me (not his invention, but has been used to great success over the years by him). Use this method the next time you need a concise way to present information (format answers when in a job review, frame content when presenting an engineering update, etc): Situation, Task, Action, Result
