View of person walking or running on a trailAn extended weekend and then some productive business travel reduced the writing and posting time to a dull roar. Nonetheless, these two posts reflect my current reading…from Drucker to neuroscience. Your thoughts and ideas are always appreciated here!

The week’s Leadership Caffeine post: “To Grow as a Leader, Master a Second Discipline.” Inspired by the late management thinker and prolific author, Peter Drucker, there’s a strong career case for investing time in mastering something outside of your work life.

For the latest, “Just One Thing” post, the focus turns to the world of neuroscience: “Learn to Overcome Your Negativity Bias.” It turns out, we may be prewired to emphasized the negatives over the positives, but that doesn’t mean we can’t rewire ourselves to focus on the positive.

Enjoy your weekend!
