We had a great meeting this morning with Dr. Lyles of @OregonStateExt, discussing how USDA RD, @USDA_NIFA and @ForestServiceNW programs can support Oregon’s #rural recreation economy. Recreation creates jobs and improves local communities.

Things people aren't afraid to say when they have psychological safety:

-I don't know
-I made a mistake
-I disagree
-I might be wrong
-I have a concern
-I have an idea

The first rule of leadership: put your mission above your ego.

The second rule of leadership: if you don't care about your people, they won't care about your mission.

The third rule of leadership: if someone has to tell you the first two rules, you're not ready to lead yet.

Who should be telling your company stories? Every employee of your company! Once you have a storytelling culture in place that brings narrative into your celebrations and low points, you’ve built a strong sense of history, purpose, and optimism to rally everyone together.

There is no authenticity without boundaries. This is tough for those of us who were raised to believe that being liked and keeping people comfortable are more important than our own self-worth. My mantra in those moments: Choose discomfort over resentment. https://t.co/x9qqH4G4lf

Psychological safety can foster trust, engagement, and an innovative org culture. How does your workplace help encourage this? https://t.co/fSmHmyrxMG
