This is happening! #GoRams

A visit to Ithaca College this weekend.

Bonus.

No lie detected

Some really boring football on tonight.

Just because someone befriends experts, talks to experts and reads books by experts doesn’t make them an expert.

Biscoff & coffee. Underrated.

A lot of organizational (and societal) issues stems from one simple reality. A lack of empathy. A simple test - have a sr. leader to attend an onboarding program. Then ask them if they would want this for their onboarding experience.

www.linkedin.com/posts/markbr... we’ve made leadership development all about individual development. Businesses suffer with poetry over plumbing

The slowest things to change…. Higher Ed The Catholic Church The DMV

The conversations that matter are the conversations that make you better.

My midlife crisis is now about a strong desire to get a tiny house, energy efficient, in the woods.

Had to get my car inspected at Pepboys. Fox News was on in the waiting area. I honestly don’t care if it was Fox or CNN or MSNBC. In an era where TV news, desperate for ratings is all about making the news over reporting it, perpetuating lies and creating rage, how about just going with a game show?

I’ll say this about the NFL season so far. It’s unpredictable and that’s very interesting

Ok ‘Cuse. We see you (with a backup QB in now)

A digital dark ages is upon on. Now what? www.linkedin.com/posts/markbr...

I fully support the concern over freedom of speech and am appalled by network TV caving to conservative opinion but its network TV… which is kinda circling the drain. The only time I’ve seen Seth Myers, Kimmel or Cobert were in clips on social media. I suspect they’ll rise again here.

Congress voting to honor Kirk…. But kids shot up in schools? Thoughts and prayers…

We are headed towards a future where we will not trust what we see/hear/read in media formats. What we trust will be real, what we can physically touch. Strong trusted network connections found in family, community, work. If correct, what does one do to prepare now for a Digital Dark Ages?

Time for coffee.

And her name shall be Twiggy!

Inside #Syracuse ‘s Landmark theater for Hamilton last night. Beautiful building.

That’s a strange news story title, eh? Imagine being a crime victim and they reference you as your job title? “Hit and run kills certified public accountant.”

I think my phone is listening! I’ve been chatting about ditching LinkedIn and all it’s obviously AI generated hyper-posturing content… and VIOLA! An email from LinkedIn wanting me to buy thought leadership ads. 🫩

Pausing on our walk around Barry Park #Syracuse

Words matter. They create beliefs, they become actions… positive or negative.

AI loses if we all stop talking to each other. www.linkedin.com/posts/markbr...

Vice President Vance once agreed with Trump that the files must be released, then agreed with the president that there were no files, then agreed that the letter didn't exist, and now agrees with Trump’s claim that it's a hoax from Democrats.

#underrated.

SYR -> LAS -> LAX #LARams #GoRams

Trumps DOJ won’t release more Epstein files… ‘nothing to see here’… ummm… But but but her emails.

#Wirearchy > Hierarchy

There is a difference. www.linkedin.com/posts/markbr... #OrgDesign #SocialByDesign #Collaboration

Ahhh. Got a gem to remind me to keep hope alive.

Where “we” take us… where AI adds value and where we once again pick it up.

In other news… Kids killed in latest school shooting. Parents in CNY up in arms now… wait for it… because of new rule on cell phone limits in schools. Not sensible gun laws what civilized countries have. NOPE. Instead upset about their kid not being able to say goodbye before getting murdered?

Business books are like bananas. They ripen fast and rot faster. We need more than inspiration and best practices. We need insights to discuss and a frame to build upon. www.linkedin.com/posts/markbr...

Using an AI agent this am to locate the best seats in my price range for a #LARams game at SoFi this fall. #GoRams

The way the country is, the world, I’m telling my kids ad nauseam - use college for what it’s for - get a deep education. Take classes that challenge your ideas, beliefs, practices, open your mind. Become well rounded. DON’T go to get a job. Go to learn what you can’t on your own.

Sorry, no. I dont think AI will reduce our ability to think. IMO it will actually create more opportunity to think and think differently www.linkedin.com/posts/markbr...

What’s the better movie predicting AI now? The Terminator (1984) or Demon Seed (1977)?

Every #LosAngelesRams fan this morning wondering how Stafford’s back is today #GoRams

We will rally around Stetson Bennett and we will play good football. 😭 #GoRams
