This week’s massive enews is about being contextually fine and why ‘ally’ is (still) a verb 12 months after the Voice referendum and the start of the latest Pal estinian gen ocide, as well as some governance mentions, thoughts on taking the lead and another thing about board solidarity and confidentiality (and more).
