@DanCable1 In the linked MIT-SMR piece we explain how to conduct rule audits. We recommend starting by identifying the most disruptive rules. To do so, one could draw on both objective measures and employee surveys or interviews. https://t.co/bmXV8oQ3zl

@work_matters @Leidyklotz Great stuff Bob! Along the same lines, my colleagues and I recently published this piece in MIT-SMR where we call for managers to enact "rule audits", wherein sludge-causing rules can be identified and modified, removed, or accepted as necessary evils. https://t.co/bmXV8oQ3zl

Let's add subtraction to academia! That's the message from @Leidyklotz and me. The sacred cows we listed for "trimming" were:

Grading
Enterprise software
Reference letters
Meetings
Awards
Academic papers

What are yours?

I live in a society that believes Jordan Peterson is a thought provoking intellectual rather than someone who is very probably enduring an ongoing and serious psychiatric event. great.

@ethicscrane The article says MBA students are motivated by personal and professional growth, and career opportunities. If we want them to see the importance of Economics, or Accounting, or Ethics, or Sustainability, we must teach to where they are, not to where we think they should be.

This is a friendly reminder to stop saying "This is a friendly reminder."

@Toffeemen68 @FT The article also says MBA students are motivated by personal and professional growth, and career opportunities. If we want them to see the importance of Economics, or Accounting, or Ethics, or Sustainability, we must teach to where they are, not to where we think they should be.

Last night AB Premier @jkenney spoke about his concern regarding the "stigma" faced by unvaccinated.

Reality: Being unvaccinated is not an immutable trait or a noble stand. It is almost always simply a decision –usually informed by misinformation & ideological spin.

Why does ski jumping have judges? Probably because it's always had them. Interesting example of how and why rules persist. https://t.co/GR12rsr3HN

@work_matters @Leidyklotz @timeshighered That's consistent with my experiences too. I haven't found a ton of research, but what I've read (mostly in medical and dental education) find pass/fail grading reduces student stress, increases cohesion, and has either a mixed impact or no impact on academic achievement.

I keep hearing that Canada is divided on vaccines. But we’re nearing 80% of the entire population with at least their first dose. We are probably more divided over Nickelback collectively as a country then we are over vaccines. This is a very vocal minority.

[That Liberal Nurse @ThatLibRN]

This will be my most sincere tweet ever.

I am pleading with anyone who will listen. I’m begging you, as a nurse, from the bottom of my heart…please get vaccinated. Today.

I’m so tired. We’re all so tired. And we’re running out of resources and people. Please…please help us.

2021, you couldn't end without one more "fuck you" to us all. 😢

I am so grateful that my university has mandated vaccinations, continues to offer both in-person and online classes, and is monitoring the situation as COVID cases rise.

I really feel for my colleagues around the world who feel unsafe at work. Universities must do better.

Veterinarians, as well as vet technicians and assistants, do difficult work under challenging circumstances. They need our support and understanding.

@NVanDistrict Please pass on our gratitude to the staff driving the plows today. They've been hard at work since early this morning, keeping the streets clear and safe. Thanks very much, folks!
