The ugly truth about change management is that the traditional change models simply don’t work. They aren’t based on any serious research and have shown themselves, over a period of decades, to fail consistently.

In his stimulating and provocative book, Four Thousand Weeks, Oliver Burkeman gives this advice – originality lies on the far side of unoriginality. The principle is that if you want to be innovative and unconventional it is probably better to serve your time learning a conventional skill before branching out on your own creative route. Pablo Picasso started with traditional academic art training, but later co-founded the Cubism movement, revolutionizing the way we perceive and represent reali

How you prioritise your work is one of the major ways you determine what you get done. Different people require different times and schedules to do their best work. According to influential tech founder and investor Paul Graham in his 2009 essay, there are two major types of schedules that different people require to work effectively: Makers: Makers are the people who are creating new things (whether it is a design, code, innovative solution concept, scientific formula or piece of art) and solvi

I recently watched the Tamil language movie – Raayan and really liked the movie. It is a typical commercial movie, following the life of three siblings with the eldest one trying to protect the younger one’s. Here is the plot according to Wikipedia: The film follows Kathavaraayan “Raayan”, a fast-food hotel owner in North Chennai, who begins to protect his family when they inadvertently get muddled in a war between two rival gangs.

The impact of disruption, hyperconnectivity, and uncertainty, coupled with the pace of change, causes many people to feel fearful and anxious. Causing them to become defensive and reactive and ‘go under’ emotionally and ‘go inwards’ cognitively, often by ruminating about their past and what bad things may happen in the future. Dwelling on past mistakes, failures, and poor performance also causes them to disengage emotionally, take flight and move away, avoid taking action, fight, or freeze and

Many efforts to build an AI ethics program miss an important fact: ethics differ from one cultural context to the next. Ideas about right and wrong in one culture may not translate to a fundamentally different context, and even when there is alignment, there may well be important differences in the ethical reasoning at work — cultural norms, religious tradition, etc. — that need to be taken into account.
