This reality is already hitting your wallet…

It is a lot better to walk alone than with a crowd going in the wrong direction.

the elimination of physicality has profound consequences of our conceptualization of #culture and #leadership. organization becomes more of a VERB than a NOUN: a mean of organizing rather than a physical presence with tangible assets.

Andrew Pettigrew - New Forms of Organization

[André Conejo @andreconejo]

if the culture is a company’s DNA, than there are only two ways to be changed in order to express desired traits:

(i) transgenics
(ii) epigenetics

the first demands change in core fundamentals by harsh actions;

the latter demand changes in context.

Mintzberg (1978): strategy is a consistency over time in a stream of decisions.

Intelligence is defined by your willingness to learn, solve problems and try new things, not by your grades.

[André Conejo @andreconejo]

organizational rites and rituals has consequences that are (i) evident and (ii) hidden. the latter surpass the first in importance, which managers are usually unconscious. at the end of the day, it’s about supporting members in achieving a shared understanding. #culture #strategy

Everything you value is a product of unimaginably lengthy developmental processes, personal, cultural, biological.

The significance of ChatGPT goes beyond functionality. It’s about our collective vision for what AI can open up for humanity.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

We haven’t lost the capacity to pay attention.

179 studies, 32 countries: on tests of concentration from 1990 to 2021, children didn’t decline—and adults actually improved.

When we want to focus, we can. Our distraction issues are a matter of motivation, not ability.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

Understanding is more important than memorization.

[André Conejo @andreconejo]

There is very little difference between one man and another; but what little there is, IS VERY IMPORTANT.

[Dr Jordan B Peterson @jordanbpeterson]

Dress like the person you want to be. Sometimes you have to act out the person you want to be before you become it.

[Prof. Feynman @ProfFeynman]

The goal of teaching should not be to help the students learn how to memorize and spit out information under academic pressure. 🧠

The purpose of teaching is to inspire the desire for learning in them and make them able to think, understand, and question.

[Richard Dawkins @RichardDawkins]

This ridiculous article (shame on the once-great Scientific American) ignorantly misunderstands the nature of the sex binary: “Actual research shows that sex is anything but binary”.

Sex is not defined by chromosomes, nor by anatomy, nor by psychology or sociology, nor by personal inclination, nor by “assignment at birth”, but by gamete size. It happens to be embryologically DETERMINED by chromosomes in mammals and (in the opposite direction) birds, by temperature in some reptiles, by social factors in some fish. But it is universally DEFINED by the binary distinction between sperms and eggs.

You may argue about “gender” if you wish (biologists have better things to do) but sex is a true binary, one of rather few in biology.
