"The most enduring legacy of our lives is the memories we leave in others — and those they leave in us."
Reflected on this walking London’s Millennium Bridge. Stability, instability — like memories: permanent, impermanent.
Grateful for the people who shape us.

According to many experts, generative AI’s impact on economic growth and societal transformation will be on the same level as the steam engine, electrification, and computers. mitsloan.co/3yxfGFh

“The question you should be asking isn’t, ‘What do I want?’ but ‘What would excite me?’” ~ Tim Ferriss
Spotted a cabbie deep in thought recently & wondered: What if we all asked ourselves this one powerful question? Change your question, change your direction.

We’re all gazing into the vast unknown. The future is uncertain, and the stakes are high. This morning, Nahant’s wild beauty mirrored our turbulent times. Amid the shifting scene, I found hope. “Light tomorrow with today” – Elizabeth Barrett Browning. #Hope #FutureFocus

Recently visited Ed Catmull in the Bay Area for a research project on exponential change. Afterward, I saw Sausalito’s houseboats. Two stood out: “The Question ?” and “The Answer.” It reminded me: “Questions are the answer.” Embrace this mindset daily. #ExponentialChange

If only we could make the invisible more visible in life. That’s the quest.

Seeing beneath the surface is key to navigating complexity. Pausing to ground ourselves helps uncover hidden forces that impact progress. As Clayton Christensen said, “actively seek passive data.” Uncovering unknowns early yields positive outcomes. #ExponentialChange

In a new book, automation expert Matt Beane looks at how robots and AI can interfere with old ways of learning and how people can build skills today, including making intelligent technologies part of the solution. mitsloan.co/4cA016x

In a complex world, good judgment isn't about trusting your gut. It's about testing your gut.
59 studies, 72k ppl: when basic math refutes their intuition, many cling to intuition and ignore the facts.
A mark of wisdom is being as quick to question old ideas as new information.

When facing uncertainty, shifting the angle of inquiry can lead to powerful insight. I filmed the sunrise standing tall, then laid flat on the beach for a pebble’s eye view. Spoiler: I got soaked! 🌊💦 Changing our questions can transform our work, life, and photos. #LifeLessons

In a world that’s increasingly automated, the power of empathy is crucial. Dan Pink said it best:
“Empathy is about standing in someone else’s shoes, feeling with their heart, seeing with their eyes.”

This week, a serene sunset drew me into the essence of empathy. Here’s a glimpse from the ocean’s edge with birds singing goodnight. Hope it brings you peace and reminds you of our profound connections.

“Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.” Confucius | Parking lots can evoke reflection and beauty, literally & symbolically. An ominous storm hovering on the horizon caught my heart but then the mirror-like Mini Cooper commanded my eye. There is beauty all around.

One of my favorite questions…different perspectives allow for learning, and through new knowledge comes the opportunity for #experimentation, #growth, & #innovation
We must actively seek perspectives other than our own, especially the ones at risk of being overlooked

"Who has a different perspective?"
One of the questions so clearly articulated by @AmyCEdmondson in the session on kindness & psychological safety at #Quality2024
Feels to me a pivotal question we all need to consider in our work & interactions. Whose views are missing, too?
