@wolf480pl@mstdn.io @timsev@mastodon.social Hmm, I think you are reading a lot more into this than is written there. I don't encourage navigating all of our professional lives as though we are navigating a whitewater river and shouting to each other about rapids.
The point is just, when you are navigating a big change, it can often be more helpful to paint the picture of what success looks like or where we should go next than to focus overly much on all the ways we can fail or go wrong.
But this is a very high level observation (and partly a joke, written for an audience of friends) rather than a thorough guide to workplace leadership.

Might as well pick something good to point at.
This lesson has many applications right now.
My greatest professional accomplishment of the year: I got my exec & manager teammates saying "point positive," a term from whitewater rafting and kayaking.
Meaning: when facing hazards, point people toward where to go/what to do, rather than drawing attention to everything to avoid.
My toxic workplace trait is that I'm all four of these characters at once
For anyone planning a Russian River vacation but new the area, let me help you:
Forestville: not haunted
Guerneville & Monte Rio: definitely haunted, but in a fun way
Cazadero: neutral, standard haunted
Duncans Mills: haunted, absolutely in a creepy way
This article is such a gorgeous portrait of the Valkyries' first season, AND, it is the most nyt vibe ever. Like it was written by an anthropologist who never watched a WNBA game before this week.

I need to go to Japan in 2026 and am planning to tack on 6-10 days of tourism. I haven't been in years. Any favorite destinations or experiences you would recommend?
Watching the mainstream media explain "Stud Budz" all weekend long is giving me life
