My time with the Buff Brief helped me appreciate the value of paying attention to small details. There is so much that goes into the Buff Brief, from content to formatting that most people will never know; however, making one mistake is broadcasted out to a list of thousands. Knowing the impact that had on my credibility has stayed with me in how I perform my daily tasks today.
I did not appreciate the work that went into putting together a weekly newsletter before working on the Buff Brief. I have such an appreciation for the work that goes into producing the content each week. I also have a much deeper appreciation for grammar. Mrs. Rebekah Bachman is ruthless with the red pen when it came to editing, but I have much appreciation towards her enforcing high standards. Her tenacious approach towards grammar forced me to become a better editor, and enforced the idea that when you set the bar high, those around you must rise to that standard. It is something I have tried to implement in each role since then.
It wasn’t my idea, but we started putting in more graphics with college specific information, ie. Graduation numbers, enrollment by major, gender, department, etc. I was always so impressed when I would see the graphics.
The easy-to-read way to digest that information was beneficial to me!
I love the addition of “A Moment with Mrs. Bachman!”
I have used many of those videos to build dialogue with my team.
I appreciate the work that goes into the Buff Brief.
