It's easier to fill gaps in competence than gaps in character.

Even if people have strong experience, it's a mistake to hire or promote them if they have weak values.

Knowledge and skills can be learned. Principles like integrity, humility, and generosity are tougher to teach.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Many people fail to benefit from constructive feedback because they overreact and undercorrect.

When a helpful suggestion feels like a big threat to your ego, you only make a small change to your habits.

The best way to learn is to overcorrect. Discomfort is a sign of growth.

(1/2) Here's an important takeaway from one of our classics, Compliance 101: "No matter what the culture of your organization, you...are charged with building that atmosphere of trust. You must work toward that goal every day. Commitment begins with you."

"Assume every document will become public" - quite frankly: every good compliance training needs to include this warning. #Google #Compliance #Monopoly

“a nudge guides choice without removing options or changing incentives. It’s like leading a horse to the water and framing its options such that the horse is empowered to and actively chooses to drink it“

Nudge, don’t nag https://t.co/C12NHDvR0w via @McKinsey #Compliance

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Company value statements are mostly empty promises: they’re uncorrelated with people’s experiences at work.

Pay no attention to the glitz in front of the curtain.

Culture is how people behave—and what gets rewarded and punished.
