sex is great but have you ever got your startup to use a centralized task management system when they didn't before?

@briannekimmel Yes, Slack is for ad hoc conversations, but anytime an idea is expressed or new knowledge created, we move that to a more permanent, searchable/organised space. Typically it’s either a JIRA ticket, something to file as a reference link/article ala Evernote, or a Gdoc/wiki.

Does your team have guidelines or rules for Slack? 20% of week spent looking for information or tracking down colleagues who can help is a significant hit to productivity

education, media, venture, community, and celebrity are all merging. the ivy league universities of the future will be influencer-lead professional communities with media companies and venture firms attached.

100%. Well-being is the foundation for success; like a personal resource. Sustainable success - no matter your career choice - comes from deciding how to spend that personal resource wisely, across work, life and rest.
Evgenia Plotnikova@evplot

Success is hard work. Don't believe anyone who tells you otherwise. Wellbeing and balance are crucial, but anyone who tells you they did not have to sacrifice anything to get to the top is lying. The same goes for those who say they did it all by themselves. It takes a village.

When you invest a large amount of time in creating frontier knowledge, it pays decades of intellectual and emotional dividends. Recently reached my 24th citation and 218th @ResearchGate (small peanuts, but rewarding for someone who didn't pursue an academic career!)

A lot of great ideas look easy and obvious in retrospect, but it's still somehow enormously difficult to figure out the first time someone does it. It's an easy way to trivialize important contributions. If it was so obviously good, why did no one else do it?
