This came out of a cool dialogue with Andrew Smith, ICE-AC the other day: “Change is the risk needed to step into a courageous conversation.” It may not be worded quite right yet, but I think there’s something to it.

Is there someone in my network who could help me double-check a Google translation of about 400 words from Portuguese to English? I came across a document some time ago that translated the teacher personalities of Hogwarts to “agile coach” personas. I’d like to share that, once I’m confident the translation isn’t completely awful. (edit: I’ve found a few willing helpers. Thank you!)

I might post this periodically, to remind us all what the difference between a million dollars and a billion dollars is in practice. Up to you how you let that shape your thoughts and actions.

Hearing a story on NPR about streaming video services and ad-support, and one of the reporters said “x has to keep growing”. Talk about cultural blindness and indoctrination. Why do businesses have to keep growing? What about equilibrium? What about stopping when we’ve reached our goals? Isn’t the global mega-crisis rooted in the theory that growth is always good and can be unlimited?

One of Silicon Valley’s best-kept secrets (in my opinion) is the Wisdom at Work meetup, co-hosted by Andrew Webster and Huy Nguyen. Tonight’s session was especially surprising for me. In some ways I don’t want it to get bigger, which is why I’m selfishly not providing a link. Easy to find on meetup. #WisdomAtWork
