Bridging education and industry for Impact. Collaboration and curiosity. Leadership and DEI. Regional Dean @NUSiliconvalley

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

“I don’t know” is not an admission of ignorance. It’s an expression of intellectual humility.

“I was wrong” is not a confession of failure. It’s a display of intellectual integrity.

“I don’t understand” is not a sign of stupidity. It’s a catalyst for intellectual curiosity.

[MIT Sloan Management Review @mitsmr]

To drive strategy execution, leaders should set goals that are F.A.S.T.: Frequently discussed, Ambitious, Specific, and Transparent. https://t.co/ihdixkuN0M

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

What leads us to ignore experts isn't their knowledge. It's their arrogance.

Evidence: Scientists are more credible when they admit what they don't know, acknowledge what they got wrong, and update their views.

Trust is earned by expressing humility, not by asserting authority.

"Soft skills" are probably misnamed. They are the hardest to understand and systematize, and the skills that give humans an edge over robots. https://t.co/MHt3hStZbG

Machines have surpassed humans in empathy.

New evidence: AI beat humans in detecting emotions and giving support. As long as people didn't know AI created the messages, they felt more heard.

It's not that AI is so good. It's that we often fail to use our emotional intelligence.

The @CrowdStrike glitch is a reminder that maintenance work is undervalued despite how essential it is to our lives. See the remarkable @stewartbrand's "Maintenance: Of Everything," a book " in progress." I love "CORROSION - Rust Never Sleeps." https://t.co/Sj4RmTpFjt

Major career transitions can take years in the making. The big “turning point,” if there is one, tends to come late in the story.
