About Me
Uncovering opportunities and fast transformation are central to my personality and thinking. They are foundational to the scaling of my social and environmental impact reflecting positive on communities
💡 Lessons learned: in discussion, share what you’ve learned (about what works and what has not) ー it builds collaboration as well as advancing the project.
💡 Lessons learned: In presenting a plan, include the best ideas on where data and experiments might evolve the plan.
💡 Lessons learned: I like discussions that focus on improving our collective understanding. Participate and lean in. I love to hear unusual and thought-provoking perspectives.
💡 Lessons learned: Asking and giving feedback is always best targeted at improvement, with an effort to being specific and actionable.
💡 Lessons learned: If you’re considering doing a project together, share your history and motivations for the project, share how this project embodies your ethos and values.
💡 A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed at some indefinite time in the future.
💡 Lessons learned: Focus on moving fast and learning, but still strive to avoid critical mistakes. If you cannot articulate both your learning and some mistakes, you’re probably not moving fast enough.
💡 Lessons learned: “I don’t come work for you, I come to work for the mission.” Share your mission and how it aligns with our joint mission.
💡 Lessons learned: By default, take action and do not wait. Share constantly your theory of the game; I will collaborate and help.
💡 Lessons learned: Ask. Share the key problems in front of you. While trying to avoid serious problems, do not worry about the unavoidable mistakes of commission that come from driving ahead at maximum speed.
💡 Lessons learned: Generally, any person can only be a principal in between zero to two projects, with a usual answer of one. So, often, my role in a project is somewhere between board member and friend.
💡 Lessons learned: I often get the feedback that I should put more time into a project. And, while I will try, usually the best evolution of my involvement is figuring out how to help more in the same amount of time.
💡 Lessons learned: I don’t value friendships based upon shared face time. I value friendships based upon heart and spirit, aligned missions in the world, and a commitment to greater aspirations for humanity. We can work on projects fiercely and loyally together, on the road to friendship.
💡 Lessons learned: As citizen developer, my most common small irritation is having someone read a PowerPoint slide or document to me. If you’ve written a document, the best way to present is to say something additive or framing of the document.
💡 Though this framework is for free, a fair compensation for my knowledge work is expected, and of course there is always room for a chat. 💬
