What would it look like if we could ask, "how do I make this the absolute best environment for complex problem-solving" instead of "how do I take away all these annoying hard problems." The stuff we want to accomplish in the world is hard. But can be joyful to accomplish.

Look what “leadership” has wrought.

[Randall Head @RandallHead1]

A new Gallup poll finds at least half of American workers say they’re “quiet quitting” — performing only the tasks they’re required to, giving up on going “above and beyond.”

All the "how to be a good manager" content is cringe to me. Everyone doing it feels woke, but it's like reading "how to be a good dictator" to me. Like, your whole premise is off. You're not someone's parent. You're another adult.

if you send me a microsoft teams link for a casual catch up I'm literally never going to talk to you again and I'll personally pay for your psychiatric care

And I’ll add one more: we really need to do something about the *system of work*: the processes, technology, management style, assumptions about how work gets done, etc. etc. etc. — because that contributes to burden, too.

“This erosion of basic respect for science, along with the loss of professional autonomy, has only worsened the moral injury sustained by health care workers.”

“Where do health care workers go from here? What is needed to prevent a continued exodus away from the front lines, to ensure that patients will have continued access to high quality, evidence-based care?”

"This influx of coronavirus-positive patients is also creating another source of infection for health care workers, who are being sidelined in numbers I’ve never seen before."

There’s a ghost on the corner of 3rd and Broadway

I noticed him the other day, as I made a left turn at the light.

He wasn’t there a week ago.

He must be new.

Nobody I recognize, but then again, his face is blurry and indistinct.

I look at him now, and I drive past. 1/

Goals and goal setting are not neutral.

Goal setting can be good.

It can also lead to bad outcomes.

[Drew Weilage @drewweilage]

Goals and goal setting may not be all they’ve been cracked up to be.

[Drew Weilage @drewweilage]

Of course on the other side of that extreme is the potential for wasted effort caused of the indifferent acceptance that goal setting *must* be a regular organizational practice.

“There’s never a line. Everything everywhere is always moving forever. Get used to it.”

That’s the world we work in.
