When Candid Communication Isn’t Enough
on medium.com
Just about every problem I encounter in my role involves communicating more often. Early on, as an engineering leader, I had to tackle a strange communication problem. This team had fully embraced a Scrum mindset, and due to rapid prototyping requirements, it worked in one-week sprints. Yet there was still a problem. The team was always working in drastically different directions and at various technical levels, constantly bickering about what needed to be done. One-on-ones with me were full of complaints about other team members and were always heated.

When Diversity Meets Feedback
on hbr.org
In recent years, leading executives from firms like Google, Bridgewater, and Netflix have touted the advantages of a work environment marked by candid feedback. Employees seem to have bought into the benefits, too. In a 2019 survey, 94% said corrective feedback improved their performance when presented well. Unfortunately, the increased diversity of our workplaces has made it much more likely that feedback will not go over well and will be misinterpreted as an act of hostility. This article explains how to navigate the divides.

When Your Employee Feels Angry, Sad, or Dejected
on hbr.org
Dealing with employees' negative emotions isn’t easy, but knowing what to do or say can make a huge difference to their well-being, the quality of your relationships with them, and team performance. The trouble is that many leaders fail to respond at all because they think discussing emotions at work is unprofessional or worry they don’t have the right to intervene in personal matters. That’s a mistake. Research shows that teams whose leaders acknowledge members’ emotions perform significantly better than teams whose leaders don’t.
You Don’t Find Your Purpose — You Build It
on hbr.org
We’re all looking for purpose. Most of us feel that we’ve never found it, we’ve lost it, or in some way we’re falling short. But in the midst of all this angst, we’re also suffering from fundamental misconceptions about purpose. The first misconception is that purpose is a thing you find. The purpose is a thing you build, not a thing you find. And most of us will have multiple sources of purpose in our lives — in our work, family, or community, for instance. Just as we all find meaning in multiple places, the sources of that meaning can and do change over time.

We think too much like preachers defending our sacred beliefs, prosecutors proving the other side wrong, and politicians campaigning for approval–and too little like scientists searching for truth.
