Radical truth and radical transparency are fundamental to having a real idea meritocracy. The more people can see what is happening— the good, the bad, and the ugly—the more effective they are at deciding the appropriate ways of handling things. This approach is also invaluable for training: Learning is compounded and accelerated when everyone has the opportunity to hear what everyone else is thinking. As a leader, you will get the feedback essential for your learning and for the continual improvement of the organization’s decision-making rules. And seeing firsthand what’s happening and why builds trust and allows people to make the independent assessments of the evidence that a functioning idea meritocracy requires. #principleoftheday

NNPC, NMDPRA Renew Collaboration to Bolster Nigeria’s Energy Security
Earlier today, GCEO NNPC Ltd, Engr. Bashir Bayo Ojulari paid a courtesy call on the Nigeria Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) at the Authority’s Headquarters in Abuja.
During the visit, both organisations renewed their commitment to sustain collaboration towards strengthening Nigeria’s energy security, promoting collective national prosperity, and delivering on the Presidential mandate for enhanced oil production, gas utilisation, expanded refining capacity, and investment attraction.
In his remarks, Ojulari stated that NNPC Ltd.’s strategic focus is anchored on disciplined execution and operational excellence, stressing that profitability remains the guiding mantra of the company’s commercial operations. He explained that the 2026 NNPC Gas Master Plan is a deliberate intervention designed to stimulate increased gas off-take and deepen value creation across the downstream value-chain.
Responding, the Authority Chief Executive, Engr. Saidu Aliyu Mohammed pledged the Authority’s continued partnership with NNPC Ltd. to drive initiatives that will guarantee Nigeria’s energy security. He particularly commended the recent launch of the NNPC Gas Master Plan 2026, noting that while gas remains Nigeria’s cleaner transition fuel, a balanced energy mix is essential to meeting the country’s growing demand.

Australia recently became the world's first country to ban social media for children under 16. Do such bans protect kids from the harmful effects of social media? Part 2 of my conversation with @JonHaidt:
The answer doesn't have to be in your head; you can look outside yourself. If you're truly looking at things objectively, you must recognize that the probability of you always having the best answer is small and that, even if you have it, you can't be confident that you do before others test you. So it is invaluable to know what you don't know. Ask yourself: Am I seeing this just through my own eyes? If so, then you should know that you're terribly handicapped. #principleoftheday
