Hi David!

Hi!

Hi Jess! Great to be here.

Jimit - Org and Culture consultant - signing in from Brooklyn NYC! And having a Horrible hair day so sorry about the off video!

Hi! I'm Risa Seelenfreund in New Rochelle, NY. www.linkedin.com/in/rseelenfreund

Welcome Limit and Risa!

Hi! Margaret Clarkson from Hoboken, NJ! I help develop leaders, ideally using coaching as a tool. www.linkedin.com/in/margaretclarkson

Agnes Stanislas I am currently in New Jersey recent graduate with a MA in I/O Psychology. I am unemployed was wondering if this forum is for someone like me.

That's what I was thinking! Similar to coaching questions. What does success look like?

Exactly Margaret!

Hi all! I’m Rebecca from Somerset, NJ. I work at a small healthcare communications agency leading the MLR Submissions team.

I really like that Legacy question!

Love that Raya. Small impacts, one conversation at a time.

Great points Jess! Love that reframe from negative to positive.

Jess - Jimit likes Marvel too!

Thanks everyone! Will look to connect individually. Great conversation!

Haha yes Jess that Marvel reference definitely resonated more than I’d like to admit!

This is so relatable. I’m in a unique position at my company because I work with EVERY person in some way and I am starting to realize how important the stories we tell can be. Especially the positive stories. And I get to bring these stories to our President — and they are usually things he’s never heard.

Just generally, this is so helpful, to hear how each of you navigate these conversations around positivity. 🙂

Thank you!

That’s such a good point around rationality being a relative thing

It's true. So much to learn from negative or toxic pollination when you dig deeply.

Yes, thanks.

Is there an article on the creation of the Incredibles that you might recommend?

Let me see if I can remember the book that talked about it

Great, thank you.

One observation from the cheap seats: I’ve observed that startups often want to start by starting vs running large-scale change processes. They have similar needs around transformation and change, but they opt for pilots, experimentation, just trying
