Greetings Decision Maker,
Generative AI tools promise efficiency, creativity, and transformative possibilities, but for many employees, navigating these tools can feel daunting. That's where peer mentoring steps in, offering a bridge between uncertainty and confidence. When employees learn directly from colleagues who have already mastered Gen AI, they gain not just technical know-how but also context-specific insights tailored to their unique roles. Imagine being guided through a new tool by someone who understands the nuances of your workload, rather than sitting through a generic training webinar. Peer mentors personalize the learning process, breaking down complex concepts and demonstrating their application in real-world scenarios. This one-on-one guidance makes Gen AI tools more accessible and, importantly, more relatable, while managing risks.

"Dr. Gleb joined us for the first time in 2021 to help engineers overcome common problems that can lead to bad decisions, including cognitive biases and emotional and social minefields. Dr. Gleb also addressed how engineers can fail-proof their plans, which is very important for engineers to hear about when so much is dependent on a good solid engineering plan. The reviews came back tremendous, and I can tell you why. Dr. Gleb came in with a level of professionalism and clear knowledge about the research that he was able to impart very effectively to our audience, and they really appreciated that. One professional engineer said that it was very nice to have such an interactive presentation and he said it was his favorite that he has attended."

What's Up With Me
I’ve never cared about clothing. Well, that’s not true. I used to anti-care about clothing. My mom always insisted I “dress nicely,” so as a teenager that was one of the “uncool adult things” against which I rebelled. Also, I have less concern than the average bear for what people think about me, which also caused me to pay less attention to my clothing, and I had no problem going out in a way that others might describe as unkempt or slovenly. When I started dating Agnes, who became my wife and business partner, it turned out that she cared much more about what people thought and also wasn’t nearly as rebellious against her parents. So she had some constructively critical things to say about my wardrobe. At first, I didn’t listen, because I was a student at the time, and my clothing choices didn’t cause much of a negative impact for me.
Things changed when I became a professor and started to moonlight as a consultant/trainer, and clothing became much more important (especially for the latter, since professors have much more sartorial leeway). I had to learn to not ignore Agnes's constructive critical feedback and actually follow her advice, because not doing so would have real negative consequences. It was a hard period of transition for me, and I had to really work at accepting this new state of affairs, but I'm glad I did. Even now, it’s hard for me to accept her constructive critical comments about my appearance in the moment, it takes me some time to cool my impetuous rebelliousness and reactance at being told what to do. But I recognize it’s for my own benefit and am able to, after a bit, accept what she’s saying (the large majority of the time). I am truly grateful for her being concerned about my appearance, because I would be less successful if she was not. |
