Hello all. I've been working out of New York this week and watching all the usual tropes about LA vs. NYC etiquette come to life. It's definitely time for me to go home when I roll over some woman's foot with my suitcase and instead of apologizing, feel irritated that she didn't move her foot out of my way.
Now, on to today's links....
Hope 2.0: Can our nation thrive without empathy? Arianna Huffington says no; empathy is how we create the conditions for change. We at Ferrazzi Greenlight wholeheartedly agree. Thanks to FG's CEO Bo Manning for circulating this link.
Pursue the Passion: Brett Farmiloe blogs on the creative process behind his book, Pursue the Passion, which grew out of a 16,ooo mile bus trip to interview people who were passionate about their work.
From Volunteer to Employee: Read how others have done it. Hat tip to career columnist @heymarci for the link.
Dealing with the Silent Treatment: Sound advice from HBR - reach out once then let it go.
Anger Management: Psychology Today thin slices anger so you can identify its source and deal with it appropriately.
Finally, an announcement: Next week we'll be introducing a regular Wednesday guest to Keith's blog, Meghna Majmudar, who runs Keith's team cohesion consultancy in NY. Tune in!
Send a trackback!
Thanks for sharing the presentation Keith. I'm really excited for the book launch on 2/2.
Friday posts are me, Brett. But Keith says hi!
