What are the critical thinking and media literacy skills that today's kids and tomorrow's leaders will need to be good citizens in a world of fake news, bots, and advertising overload?

We made a TV show for just that! Variety just announced it: https://t.co/RaswlLU6A1

In honor of #ArborDay today, I want to share a #productivity tip from @nireyal that has changed my work:

I'm tired of that damn goldfish statistic. Turns out it couldn't be further from the truth. Unfortunately, so many of our leadership, sales, and marketing "best practices" today are based on the myth that people can't pay attention…https://t.co/bRih9cHoS8 https://t.co/fYBorelU36

Work From Anywhere is the new Work From Home: as part of my #sponsored series with

That's why I partnered with @Lenovo and their ThinkPad X1 series (driven by Windows 10): https://t.co/9yVeSVjbpM
