@united yesterday upon boarding our flight from Houston to Quito’s, after delays for maintenance, and upon FINALLY getting seated on the plane, we were told our flight was CANCELED! United REFUSED to put us in a hotel room!

I am leading a high school group trip and NO ONE is able to retrieve their bags. We are STRANDED in Texas! Students are missing out on their $5000 (PER PERSON) trip! @united this is UNACCEPTABLE!!!

You cannot have a good student experience without a good employee experience.
Higher Ed needs to care about their employees' wellbeing as much as their students'.

"Speech Intelligibility" is how well you can hear in a space.
Many classrooms have a lower than 75% rating — meaning, students can't hear 25% of the words being taught.
How can you learn if you can't even hear?

I would like to propose a new leadership principle:
leaders have a sense of humor and never take the world too seriously, precisely because the world is quite serious.

When groups meet to brainstorm, good ideas are lost. People bite their tongues due to conformity pressure, noise, and ego threat.
A better approach is brainwriting: generate ideas separately, then meet to assess and refine.
Group wisdom begins with individual creativity.

Competence can be gauged from a distance. Character is best observed up close.
Skills are visible in the work people produce. You don't know their values until you see how they treat others.
What people say reflects how they want to be seen. What they do reveals who they are.

I wish I could be a narcissist because they seem to be happy and always put themselves first. They are quite popular too!

Pro-Tip: While you’re posting back to school photos of your kids on Facebook to document their name, age, grade, school, and teacher, don’t forget to include their favorite pet, mothers maiden name, and the city where they were born.

We outsourced another service to a third party vendor. They are going to send you an email that will look remarkably like a phishing attempt. You’ll need to click on the link and provide your account information, everything our security training tells you not to do. Just do it!
