NO MORE BURNOUT...
"NO ONE IS COMING, IT'S UP TO US."
Article: OPTIMIZE YOURSELF - You already know this...this is just a reminder for us all to transform our own burnout into meaning, focus and innovation advantage. Some companies are investing in culture and employee experience in new and more holistic ways to treat burnout & change more effectively. Let's experiment (test & learn) together; let's view ourselves & treat ourselves like we are the most worthy lean-start-up initiative ever - " I AM AN INNOVATION PROJECT."
UNDERSTANDING
COMPLEX SOCIAL PHENOMENA
Podcast: Kevin deLaplante - because I have my own biases and a very incomplete understanding of the current and historical polarizing political/social discourse, I am trying to learn from the experts. In this podcast, Kevin explores the work of two social scientists (i.e., Karen Stenner and Eric Kauffman) who have written extensively on the topic over the last 20 years - continually expanding our thinking/perspectives will hopefully help us all find a more effective way forward.

In addition to the podcast below you can find a summary article here of Karen's book & presentation (written long before the current political situation).
