Disaster Avoidance Experts

Greetings Decision maker,


As organizations navigate the complexities of hybrid work, many are adopting a broad-brush approach to hybrid work models without adequately differentiating between various departments and roles. For instance, companies like Comcast and Apple have mandated specific in-office days for all employees, regardless of their specific tasks or departmental needs. This indiscriminate approach often reveals a reluctance among leadership to embrace hybrid work, driven by employee demands for flexibility rather than a strategic decision. Such blanket policies can undermine the potential benefits of hybrid work, including enhanced productivity, retention, and cost savings.

What's Up With Me


I’ve been spending more time thinking about my attention recently. I usually listen to podcasts and books while doing chores or exercising, combining boring activities with edutainment. However, after listening to several podcasts about the benefits of silence and focused time, I decided to experiment with doing some boring activities without edutainment, with the goal of being more attentive and mindful. I found it too hard to motivate myself to exercise without listening to a podcast or book, but I was able to do household chores. I found it to be especially nice when gardening, enjoying birds and other nature sounds and paying more attention to the environment around me. I hope I can keep it up: I find myself tempted to go back to edutainment every time I garden, and I do so when it’s noisy outside, such as when neighbors are mowing their lawn. Still, I find the quality of my attention has sharpened and I look forward to continuing to experiment and grow my attention capacity going forward.
