One cannot move straight to Ri, any more than a martial artist can go straight to black-belt after an intensive 3-day course :-)

I’m Curious about Curiosity 🥸

@toddkashdan and his team synthesised years of research on curiosity and found #FiveDimensionsofCuriosity

And so instead of asking, “How curious are you?” we can ask, “How are you curious?”

Thanks @Haypsych for this wonderful #Sketchnote

To quote Otto Scharmer: "You cannot charge a system unless you transform consciousness (mindset)". Mindset is our greatest enabler & biggest barrier to change. That applies whether we are seeking to change our own behaviours or to transform a big system. Graphic: @anujmagazine

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The sweet spot of worrying about other people's opinions is caring enough to learn from them, but not so much that you conform to them.

It takes humility to rethink your views in the face of disapproval. It takes integrity to put your personal values above social approval.

If your intention was a barrier to entry you have exceed!

@santanderuk the most appalling user experience I have ever encountered with your registration process. Impossible to register and password creation process so complicated with no clear feedback mechanism.

Old Japanese samurai proverb says: ”Do not speak bad of yourself. For the warrior within hears your words, and is lessened by them.”

[Neil Killick @neil_killick]

By "an agile way" I mean always trying to improve things, bias to action, favouring progress over inertia, getting feedback, chasing value over just delivering what you're told, self-learner, sharer of knowledge, etc. Being a thinker and not an institutionalised drone.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Shielding students from uncomfortable ideas isn't education. It's groupthink.

In healthy learning cultures, students are invited to take intellectual risks. They gain the courage to challenge each other's views—and their own.

Silencing dissent is an enemy of critical thinking.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Changing your mind doesn't mean you've abandoned your principles. It may mean you've learned something.

It's better to contradict yourself and be accused of hypocrisy than to stick to your guns and sacrifice your integrity.

The hallmark of integrity is honesty, not consistency.

I’m reading about how BBC Online uses serverless — nice!!

1. Traffic management done on EC2 on AWS, handing 10K req/sec.

2. Website rendering layer: server side React, typically on 2000 AWS Lambdas.

Page loads are so fast!

In "high-control" workplaces, information gets pushed up to authority: senior leaders make decisions on the basis of information. In organisations that enable their people this is flipped: decision-making authority is pushed down to those with the information. By @sketchplanator

On this day 48 years ago, we lost Kung Fu legend Bruce Lee. His legacy remains universal, and is renowned as one of the most influential martial artists to ever live.

You don’t get to stoke the fire at the beginning of the tournament by labelling our anti-racism message as ‘Gesture Politics’ & then pretend to be disgusted when the very thing we’re campaigning against, happens.

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

Just because someone is high up on the organisational ladder doesn't make them influential. If it did, top-down change projects would always succeed. There are other factors that create influence far more than status does https://t.co/Fi0Z7lsbB0 By @tnvora #100RepeatTweets no.35

42/ No10 decided to lie: 'herd immunity has never been... part of our coronavirus strategy'. V foolish, & appalling ethics, to lie about it. The right line wd have been what PM knows is true: our original plan was wrong & we changed when we realised
