There are challenges related to people working from home. These challenges existed before Covid but have become more profound with greater numbers of people WFH. This recent article from the NYT suggests other concerns that are starting to take shape.

Joe Gammal recently participated in the Virtual Island Summit. Over 10,000 people participated representing more than 500 islands. The need for collective action to solve difficult issues was a central point of the Summit. See more in this article: https://t.co/oncyrCt1SB

We were sorry to hear of the passing of Sir Ken Robinson. He was a true visionary and his concerns about students and creativity resonated with all of us at Synecticsworld. If you are not familiar with his work, we recommend you start with this Ted Talk. https://t.co/PL10adBHG7

A lot of conversation about kids heading back to school. We've heard from politicians, parents, & teachers. We have heard little about what students think. Joe Gammal of Synecticsworld organized a panel of students and they think a super hero could help. https://t.co/VL3SuYGQ6l

Guide for Effective Meetings

•Outside perspectives (people, experiences) are particularly useful for information sharing or creative problem solving purposes.

[Synecticsworld @Synecticsworld]

Guide for Effective Meetings

Identify the right participants to engage multiple perspectives.
•Bring diversity and multi-functional areas together. Not just “must invites” but a “dream team”.
•Need: Sponsors, Thinkers, “Experts”, Doers and Contrarians.

[Synecticsworld @Synecticsworld]

•Lift the group out of Operational Mode into Innovation Mode.
•Decide which one of 3 types of meetings you want - Info Sharing, Creative Collaboration/Problem Solving or Decision Making? Design to the outcome desired without doing all at the same time.

[Synecticsworld @Synecticsworld]

Guide for Effective Meetings - Create a Task Statement to declare your objectives and set the purpose of the meeting.
•The tighter and more specific the objective the better the meeting and the greater the effect/impact following the meeting.

I love it when science catches up with what artists have always known. https://t.co/rt4bPw1djW

[Synecticsworld @Synecticsworld]

@SirKenRobinson We have asked people to make sure they always have a pad in their hands and capture their thoughts for over 50 years. Those thoughts, connected and unconnected, on point and totally random are the essence of connection making.
