I write about people management and post about books, good light, and occasionally weird music. she/her. 🖤🩶🤍💜
I had high expectations for this book and I am not at all disappointed. It does a fantastic job of adding an equity/sustainability lens to its predecessor, Managing to Change the World, which has been one of my staple book recs for years. go get it, manager pals: https://bookshop.org/p/books/managing-in-a-changing-world-the-management-center-s-guide-to-effective-leadership/18933416?ean=9781394165797
Dan HonA reminder that you don't need AI to make anything shitty, humans will do that on their own. AI like any technology just makes it easier to do more shit faster.
tell me your swag was made by a co-located team without telling me etc (appreciate you, pals đź’™)
the amount of time I have spent today making sure my video calls were not cropping the second line of my work swag shirt’s message is … probably not enough time to accomplish the goal tbh
Leigh HoneywellI've been a longtime reader of @askamanager’s advice column – this week's is a bummer of a topic but I was honoured to be able to help answer it - content note for discussion of workplace and intimate partner violence: https://www.askamanager.org/2023/05/i-think-my-employee-is-being-abused-by-her-partner.html
(will pause here for now but there’s absolutely more yelling where this came from)
yelled about this one elsewhere but also can’t stop thinking about it: The Longcut by Emily Hall, a book bred in a lab for me specifically.
we follow the cognitive wandering of our artist narrator as she puzzles over what her art-work is, and how it intersects (or doesn’t) with her day-job-work, truth, representation, the “spiking out into time” feeling of looking at art that resonates, and her friends’ work.

bought The Half-White Album by Cynthia J. Sylvester based 50% on lizard brain “hey I’m half white!” impulse, 40% on queer and Indigenous themes/mixed-genre form, 10% on curiosity about UNM’s fiction imprint, all boxes checked. (My non-white family is not the same background as the Diné characters in the book, but I did appreciate the New Mexico rep.) https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-half-white-album-cynthia-j-sylvester/18970765?ean=9780826364715
