👉Taking part in the annual Swedish Lunch even in @Davos with its magnificent views of the #SwissAlp Ais like winning the lottery - an invitation-only event for world leaders, change makers, thoughts leaders and business leaders.

I'm running for Mayor because the ‘story of us’ is San Antonio's next chapter. Our city has always been defined by its rich heritage and the people that calls it home. This journey isn't about one of us; it's about all of us. Together, we can build the future of this great city. Our City, Our Moment.

👉🏿While I was looking for a short cut to my meeting at the @Schatzalp_DAVOS hotel, trying to avoid the busy main ✍🏾 street, the “promenade”🏔️ at @Davos , I got lost. From the mountains, @Davos was the most beautiful sight!

[Armel Romeo Kouassi @akouassi]

Insightful discussion this morning. Thank you @BloombergHouse for being such a wonderful host at #Davos. Is the “pragmatic” approach in the collaboration #USA and #China at the world 🌎 stage the path forward to avoid conflict?

[Bloomberg @business]

Both the US and China are showing increasing "pragmatism" in their relationship, World Bank President Ajay Banga says at #BloombergHouse at Davos

But he adds that "chauvinistic nationalism" remains a concern https://t.co/g7oLukXjsc

The 🐝 buzzword at this year #Davos is #GenAI but more than a buzzword it’s impact will be profound! The queue to attend @sama Altman talk highlighted the interest of the topic. I was impressed by @SandboxAQ. The book 📚 by CEO @jackhidary is a easy read for executive on #AI

[Ray Dalio @RayDalio]

Great managers orchestrate rather than do. Like the conductor of an orchestra, they do not play an instrument, but direct their people so that they play beautifully together. Micromanaging, in contrast, is telling the people who work for you exactly what tasks to do or doing their tasks for them. Not managing is having them do their jobs without your oversight and involvement. To be successful, you need to understand these differences and manage at the right level. #principleoftheday
