I wanted the pink… but, the iPad Pro only comes in silver and space grey. Sigh. I wanted Pro not professional. 😔

I’ve been looking at this pink iPad all day.. 🥰💕
Great advice.

“I don’t have time” is a poor excuse for treating people poorly. No one is too busy to be kind. Managers who can't find a minute to be civil shouldn't be managing people. Making your team feel valued is core to the job. It's always worth your time to show you care about others.

The dissonance between today’s verdict and the Jetson-like world we live in is hard to wrap my head around. For me, this is more than simply a woman’s right to choose. It’s the first thread pulled in unraveling the fabric of civil liberties that binds a society together. 💔😞

.@Forbes this is an oversimplification of the challenge start-up’s face. The problem is multi-faceted, w/ shared culpability on the part of vendors, analysts, and customers. DM if you’d like to discuss more.

The challenge is getting the right combination of tools when the big players in the cybersecurity market are pushing bundled products comprised largely of mediocre solutions. trib.al/2Wu9a1e

Another great read by @HarvardBiz. Everyone in a leadership position should do a gut check. Are we truly being open and inquisitive, or are we just hearing an echo?
Leaders with good judgment listen for what’s unsaid. They surround themselves with people who will tell them what they need to know — not what they want to hear. And they think carefully about the risks of implementation — even for small projects. hbr.org/2020/01/the-elements…

I just read an article about “ZTNA 2.0” - citing that ZTNA 1.0 wasn’t secure enough, really? The Security industry needs to just stop with this nonsense. If you want to assert that your products are better, then prove it. Do 3rd party testing. Stop making up marketing terms.

I read the actual article, w/ the full quote, & while it has been taken a bit out of context it was still rude. And, shows a lack of sportsmanship that says more about Helmut Marko (& Red Bull by extension), than it does about Hamilton or Max’s race day performance. SMH. #F1
