Listening well is more than talking less. It's skill in asking and responding. Show an interest in people's interests, not in trying to judge their status. Help them express their thoughts clearly and crystallize your understanding. #ThursdayThoughts nytimes.com/2020/01/09/opini…

Two questions for leaders to ask: 1. "Hey 'Brad'... What are you wrestling with?" *then shut up* Count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5... and give people the time to answer. Show them that you're listening! 2. "How can I help?" @HalGregersen 💯

Toronto is playing Milwaukee in the NBA playoffs and is thus our sworn enemy. Which is why I'm planning a peace mission to Toronto... in the form of a Design Sprint workshop with @adaptiveX 🤣 June 25. All are welcome. Even the Toronto Raptors. eventbrite.ca/e/official-des…

If you want to change an organization's culture, you have to drill right down to how its values are acted on in the small moments, the things that happen dozens, hundreds, or thousands of times per day. #SundayThoughts #CultureChange
Reminder: Innovation is NOT about technology. Innovation is about creating value for customers and creating value for your organization. The best organizations even care about creating value for their team & society!
