During my discussion with Darryl Young of the Muhammad Ali Center, he quoted Shawn Dove, asking, “What would you do if you were 10x bolder?”
And, during my discussion with Dayna Neumann of United Mail, we talked about the importance of trust and transparency when it comes to how leaders and teams engage with each other, and the impact it will have on the future of work.
Friday’s
Eclectic // Eccentric virtual performance
reinforced those notes and other sentiments shared across conversations held on Zoom, Facetime, and IG Live. Trust. The Horizon of Change. Collaboration and Adaptation.
As I ran this morning, I thought about those discussions, and about the ever-present feeling of uncertainty.
I reflected on what that means for me personally. "It will not be uncertainty that is my undoing, but inaction," I thought. For when my actions are grounded in curiosity, courage, connection - and creativity - uncertainty becomes the soil that births new life and ways of working.
As we head into another week in ever-changing times, with questions, underlying facets of fear, and hope for the future, I encourage you to keep an adaptive mindset. It will not be easy, but we will make it through together!
We also want to thank our
