For the first time, in a long time, the California reservoirs are full.

Are year/year changes the right measure?

Living in California for more than 4 decades, are there better cycle measures than 365 days to better understand where we are relative to historic trends, for something like rainfall?

According to ChatGPT... Historically, severe droughts in California tend to recur approximately every 10 to 20 years. However, this can vary widely:...

Longer-term thinking means, when one of your best people leaves to pursue something else, thank them, wish them well, and stay in touch. You never know when paths will cross again.

The number one nerve-touching topic in this week's Friday Five, five posts that touched a nerve this week.

The Friday Five

Everyone at the company is watching how you treat a high performer on exit. How will you treat them when they leave? Even if they're high-performing. Most people are NOT working at the LAST job they'll ever have.Be proud of your 'coaching tree,' when people you've helped develop move onto new and bigger roles. Brag on a strong alumni network. And you never know when paths will cross again.

Meetings and Friction

Meetings should not be the default way to move a piece of work forward. There should be some friction, some thought involved, a flowchart, if you will, on does this really need to be a synchronous meeting or can it be achieved via some other means? - Darren Murph

Stop talking about days of the week. Start talking about better meeting etiquette as Tracy Hawkins might say.Hours of productivity waiting to be grabbed back from inefficient, often unnecessary, flow-disturbing, status, update, and inform meetings. Easy money, take it. Cancel a recurring meeting today.

Coaching Trees

I've learned to spend more time walking them through 'How' I think about a particular challenge or an opportunity versus 'What' I think they should do - Jay Parikh

Coaching trees - Does the boss nurture feed and support their coaching tree, taking great pride as their charges develop, usually taking on more responsibility and senior positions, regardless of the employer? You end up with an amazing network, and a team excited to follow the path of those who came before.

Coaching Trees.
