Too many people get hired because they are just "one of those." If you're looking for a plumber you might be inclined to fill the job with the first experienced plumber you interview, without ascertaining whether he has the qualities of an outstanding plumber. Yet the difference between an ordinary plumber versus an outstanding one is huge. When reviewing any candidate's background, you must identify whether they have demonstrated themselves to be extraordinary in some way. The most obvious demonstration is outstanding performance within an outstanding peer group. If you're less than excited to hire someone for a particular job, don't do it. The two of you will probably make each other miserable. #principleoftheday

7 Habits That Make You Look Unprofessional (and how to fix them!) ?? Professionalism is more than just showing up - it’s about how you show up. Here’s the truth: Small habits can quietly undermine your reputation. Master these fixes to elevate your image and confidence: 1/ Not proofreading emails or documents. ? Typos make you seem careless and unprepared. ? Always double-check emails before hitting send. 2/ Interrupting others in meetings. ? Cutting people off feels rude and disrespectful. ? Wait until others finish before responding. 3/ Arriving late consistently. ? Lateness signals poor time management and reliability. ? Plan to arrive 10 minutes early for every meeting. 4/ Missing deadlines without updates. ? Silence on delays damages trust and relationships. ? Inform your manager and offer a new timeline. 5/ Oversharing personal issues at work. ? Too much personal information blurs boundaries. ? Keep conversations focused and professional. 6/ Using a defensive tone in emails. ? Defensive responses create tension and misunderstandings. ? Take time to cool down before replying professionally. 7/ Leaving your workspace messy. ? A cluttered desk signals disorganization and lack of focus. ?

There are so many AI tools out there to help students. I am curious which tools are designed with intention to both help students learn and develop critical thinking skills. At the moment the responsibility to manage risks, like bias, are pushed on schools, parents and students.
