What did I write about this week ( August 12-18)

This week, I started with a post about how easy it is to mock people on social media, inspired by the Rachael Gunn story, and how I saw people around me use it in a negative manner. We can all do better and empower and respect others even if it seems different for us.

I also launched my two workshops to startups and VCs as well as for corporate executives helping bridge the startup with the corporate world.

Waymo allows their employees to use their robotaxi on the freeway in California, something that is another step into integrating autonomous cars into our daily commute but also a good example of how a company can use employees as champions of their products and to help test it.

And finally, I wrote my message to students who got their A Level test results and not try to define them.

An hour later I saw that Richard Branson and his daughter Holly Branson shared exactly the same message. I did not see this message coming across in the media, especially not from government officials who are treating results as a main KPI - No matter what is your test results you can be successful.

Happy week ahead.
