Congrats!

[Brandon Coverstone @bcovers0210]

I am SO excited for this opportunity, and cannot wait to start this new chapter in my career. I have grown so much in the past several months, not just in T-Mobile but in life. Huge thank you to everyone who has supported me along this journey. It doesn’t end here!!

"Most people die at 25. We just don't bury them until they are 70"

I often think about this

Giving back to the communities that were serve is a key priority for T-Mobile. This week I would like to thank Justine Garcia in our Jacksonville NC market for the role she played in supporting the Onslow County Public School bus drivers. You rock Justine!

Don't confuse psychological safety with "safe spaces."

Safe spaces treat people as fragile and dissenting ideas as threats. Psychologically safe environments build the capacity to embrace and learn from respectful disagreement.

Exposure to diverging views is fuel for growth.

Coming soon! Pub Pindrop and the Froyo station at the @TMobile Overland Park HQ will open for soft launch on Monday.
We’re so excited to bring these beautiful new amenity spaces to our amazing employees in KC.

Go team!

[Janice V. Kapner @JaniceKapner]

Sharp. Agile. Capable. I could go on about these folks, but the bottom line is without Most Valuable Players like these, you wouldn't find @TMobile showing up with quite the vibrancy we do today. #BestTeamEver #TeamMagenta

On major life decisions, the purpose of seeking advice is not to get answers. It’s to gain perspective.

No one knows what's best for you. They can only share what makes sense to them.

The most important question to ask is not what you should do. It's what you might be missing.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Refusing to give up on a failing plan is not an act of resilience. It's a display of rigidity.

Grit is not about persevering with a route that isn’t working. It’s about staying focused on a goal but flexible on the path.

Healthy persistence requires peripheral vision.

[Anmol Singh @DeltaNinety]

You could’ve, but you didn’t.

When someone offers feedback you don't like, the ideal response isn't to ignore it. It's to seek more perspectives.

One person's reaction is an opinion. If multiple people make the same point, it's a pattern.

The best way to grow is to find the recurring signal in the noise.

Hey Magenta Peeps! I have a $100 TMoGear gift card that @MikeSievert gave me at the #ATLTownHall. I’d ❤️ for it to go to someone who needs more swag, but doesn’t really have the extra funds. If that’s you HMU 🫶🏻. My magic is a different color, but I still make it happen 😍! #TMH

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

"Don't argue with the boss" is not a demand for respect. It's a sign of a fragile ego.

Insecure leaders silence dissent to shield their self-esteem and save face. Secure leaders welcome critiques to improve their judgment.

Being open to challenges is a prerequisite for growth.

First day of #InclusionCouncilConference and we’re already inspired! Thank you @clintpatterson for your leadership and partnership in creating a culture we ALL want to be a part of. Bringing our values to life! #OneTeamTogether #BeYou @DeeanneKing

There are hundreds of cognitive biases, but most of them stem from a failure to recognize that our beliefs are subject to biases.

Defending our views stalls learning. Questioning them stimulates growth.

The only belief worth cherishing is the belief that you might be wrong.
