Comment on What Type of Music Are You? by Dan Larkin

I like the imagery here. It’s those transitions between “sets” that challenge moods and create disruptions…whether transitions from one meeting to the next, from a commute to your home, from a quiet 1:1 to a freshly arriving group.

There’s an underlying soundtrack to all of our lives, but with a little awareness we can skip to the right spot on the playlist.

Comment on Over-Communicate During Times of Change by hrscoops

You are so right about over-communicating. I wrote a very similar piece on my blog http://hrscoops.wordpress.com and have been part of a couple of change initiatives in which the communication was lacking and rumors and speculation took over.
I think another important piece to remember is that we need to find many different ways of communicating. A memo or an email blast isn’t going to work – include people in the communication chain in a number of different ways. Have departmental meetings to answer questions, use your Intranet (if your company has one), even little text messages to notify people of upcoming opportunities to have discussions…
Thanks for the article!

One of my favorite quotes is by Oscar Wilde that also happens to be very fitting to what you wrote here: “Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination ”

Comment on Video blog: Back in Vietnam where it Began by sandip

u’ve tried to make it informative so I guess its turned out a bit long. But great 1st attempt – i think the trick with these long blogs would be to do it in the ‘discovery channel” style – think adding supers etc would not make it seem long – but some great shots – the street ones – the cooking and i especially like the golf one! *wink*
