  • “What actually happened,” he wrote, “was that six individuals became a team and the team gave itself wholeheartedly and spontaneously to cooperation … They felt themselves to be participating, freely and without afterthought, and were happy in the knowledge that they were working without coercion.” The lessons Mayo drew from the experiment are in fact indistinguishable from those championed by the gurus of the nineties: vertical hierarchies based on concepts of rationality an

      This is similar to one of Gawande's findings in The Checklist Manifesto. Bringing people together, enabling communication and thus a feeling of being a team is one of the best ways to foster innovation, reduce stress and thus errors, address complexity, and create great work.
  • What they don’t seem to teach you in business school is that “the five forces” and “the seven Cs” and every other generic framework for problem solving are heuristics: they can lead you to solutions, but they cannot make you think.
  • M.B.A.s have taken obfuscatory jargon—otherwise known as bullshit—to a level that would have made even the Scholastics blanch.

  • ■Remember the three Cs: Communication, Communication, Communication! Philosophers (other than those who have succumbed to the Heideggerian virus) start with a substantial competitive advantage over the PowerPoint crowd. But that’s no reason to slack off. Remember Plato: it’s all about dialogue!

  • How many of our most joyful memories have been created in front of a screen?
  • Communicating at great haste hones our utterances down to instincts and impulses that until now have been held back or channeled more carefully.

      But most of us can speak faster than we can type or text, and no-one complained that conversation makes our brains work too fast.
  • Our cafes, post offices, parks, cinemas, town centers, main streets and commu­nity meeting halls have suffered as a result of this development.

  • The difference between typing an email and writing a letter or memo out by hand is akin to walking on concrete versus stroll­ing on grass.
  • A butcher can tell you which cuts of meat are the freshest; an online grocer may not. That same butcher, if he is good, might not just remember your preferences—which an online retailer can do frighteningly well—but ask you how your mother has been doing, whether you caught the latest football game. These interactions remind us that we are more than con­sumers; they remind us that we are part of the world in a way no amount of online shopping ever will.

      This is right on the money - a visit to a local farm shop is a wonderful experience.
  • If we spend our eve­ning online trading short messages over Facebook with friends thousands of miles away rather than going to our local pub or park with a friend, we are effectively withdrawing from the peo­ple we could turn to for solace, humor and friendship, not to mention the places we could go to do this. We trade the com­plicated reality of friendship for its vacuum-packed idea.

      It might be just the way this essay was abridged for the paper, but I cannot see whether the author wants us to spend all evening writing a longhand letter to a distant friend, or ignore them altogether to spend time with a local friend.

    While I disagree with a lot of this, I recommend this essay anyway, as food for thought.

    The relevance of food to humans means so much more than we think. As much as it is a means of survival, it also nurtures relationships, see more safety food happy life , https://tuvanisovietnam.com/tu-van-iso-22000-haccp/

    There are only a few days in a month when you're ovulating when you need sex. In China, most couples are dominated or guided by the man, while the woman is usually cooperative. If there is a day when a woman wears sexy clothes and acts provocatively, men should pay attention to such opportunities, #正品威而鋼 #威而鋼台灣 #輝瑞威而鋼 #威而鋼30粒裝 #威而鋼4粒裝 #威而鋼輝瑞 #威而鋼購買 #威而鋼成分 #威而鋼效果 #威而鋼價錢 #威而鋼評價 #威而鋼使用方法 #威而鋼犀利士 #Viagra購買#威而鋼邊度買 香港威而鋼邊度買-威而鋼官網：https://www.viagra-hk.cn 香港犀利士邊度買-犀利士官網：https://www.cialis-hk.cn 香港必利勁邊度買-必利勁官網：https://www.priligy-hk.cn 台灣威而鋼哪裡買-威而鋼台灣：https://www.viagra-tw.cn 台灣犀利士哪裡買-犀利士台灣：https://www.cialis-tw.cn 台灣必利勁哪裡買-必利勁台灣：https://www.priligy-tw.cn
