Humans that fuse with machines will become telekinetics. They will have powers usually reserved for mythological superheroes – what will they do with them?

Meditation. The inner peace and stillness that fills me after I meditate provides me the energy and focus I need for my day. I meditate early in the morning for anywhere from 10 minutes to 45 minutes. I use guided meditations, as well as, meditations only using my breath.

The newest crop of software applications turns this logic on its head. They mimic consumer companies by using technology as a “wedge" to gain widespread adoption, and don’t even try to become systems of record. Instead, they are "systems of engagement” (SoE), meaning apps that employees actually use to get their work done. …see more

It might seem surprising to see a co-founder who sold his business buy it back. But to me this makes all the sense in the world. When ZICO Beverages, LLC was sold to The Coca-Cola Company it became just another product line. Odds were high that it would eventually shuttered (which it was announced to be 3 months ago). But by buying it back, Mark Rampolla and his team can not only give it the focus it needs for long-term success and expand the product line base the core brand, but they are tapping into the tidal shift toward plant-based diets at the right time too. Nicely done. h/t 👋 Adam Leidhecker #zico #coconutwater #plantbased #cocacola #thecocacolacompany #business #businessstrategy #branding …see more

This South Dakota anti-meth campaign by Broadhead Co was amazingly well-executed. Like many, my first reaction was “what were they thinking?!” But that’s exactly what they were counting on. It got a very important campaign outsized results by everyone sharing it based on that reaction. I’m betting that like me, almost everyone realized it after they shared. Brilliant. Edit: I've seen some say that the money spent on it would have been better spent on actual treatment. Perhaps, but I am not commenting on that as it is not my area of expertise. I've also seen that some think it normalizes meth use because it implies everyone in the ad is on meth - no, it doesn't. And lastly, some are saying just because this raised awareness and has people talking that there are better ways to have done it. I would challenge them to come up with a campaign that would gain half as much traction. #campaigns #awareness #psa #antimeth …see more

Apple's set a clock on itself, and the time is on for the company to hustle and get its own 5G modems into its phones by 2022.

One of the key ways for families to build intergenerational wealth is via real estate. But on top of slavery and Jim Crow, there was red-lining by banks and real estate covenants that kept African Americans from being able to tap into that. This post by Ben Thompson at Stratechery does a solid job of knitting together how those business practices, in large part but by no means solely, created the situation America finds itself in today with regard to the systemic opression of black Americans. Keep in mind, the post only focuses on one city - Madison, Wisconsin. But it happened in every city, all across America. #race #banking #blacklivesmatter #dobetter …see more

Are data-poor organizations doomed? We’ve been running a data science experiment over the past few months. We were shocked, but not surprised by what we learned. Think about this...

You’ve heard of virtual reality and augmented reality but have you heard of parallel reality? The wonderfully named Misapplied Sciences, Inc. has developed the ability of different people looking at the same monitor to only see information relevant to them. This pretty cool concept is going to be tested by Delta Air Lines in Detroit so if you’re flying in our out of there later this year, check it out. By the way, Delta is the only domestic airline I've heard of that is working on its brand by trying to improve all aspects of air travel. #deltaairlines #parallelreality #misappliedscience #brand …see more

With violence all around, it is more important than ever to reflect on protest art, kids and activism. See video of panel discussion that addresses these issues:

Book has tangible implementable strategies -- so it is a book that combines theory and practice. In the trenches, concrete suggestions. Interestingly, that is also an approach for improving institutions -- theory and practice. We need both. One without the other is like walking with one shoe on and one she off. And, lasticity as developed in the book is geared toward education, its use can be expanded to include other organizations trying and needing to make institutional culture change. It's a book that explains people and then how organizations can better respond to and engage w/ them. …see more
