1. Learned Excellence: Mental Disciplines for Leading and Winning from the World's Top Performers with Alan Eagle & Eric G. Potterat, PhD
"As a leader, it's essential to help people identify their motivators in the workplace. I always emphasize the importance of vision. Vision can mean different things to different people, but fundamentally, it should answer the question: "What does success look like for us as a team, and how will it impact the world?" While personal success is important, being part of something purposeful and impactful is equally motivating. As leaders, it's our responsibility to effectively communicate this vision to inspire our teams and provide them with a sense of purpose at work." Read More .
?"Hiring managers tend to talk excessively during interviews, dominating the conversation and delving into details about the role. Then, they ask the candidate a generic question such as "Tell us about yourself." As a result, the candidate has minimal opportunity to speak, and if they are astute, they simply echo back what the hiring manager has already conveyed. My advice is to conduct structured interviews. This involves thorough research, being prepared, and asking all candidates the same questions derived from the job description." Read More .

"Effective “friction fixers” first view themselves as stewards of their employees' time. Secondly, they treat the organization as a product, constantly evaluating its structure and processes for usability and clarity. Thirdly, they embody a listening and observant approach, akin to elephants with big ears, rather than being like hippos with big mouths constantly giving directives." Read More .

"One of the most important strategies I've used professionally and personally is "stop, breathe, and be." This practice helps to moderate the intensity of highs and lows, allowing for a more balanced stress response throughout the day. You simply stop, take a breath, and center yourself." Read More .
"For a business stakeholder looking to implement machine learning capabilities in an organization, it's important to ask your data scientists to go beyond technical metrics and convert them into business metrics. Failing to do so leaves the stakeholder in a difficult position, leading to frustration and the tough decision of either authorizing deployment on a leap of faith, which is never a good idea, or ultimately killing the project, which unfortunately happens all too often with new machine learning projects."
