Psychology By Any Other Name
I love the book Nudge-the content's pretty good, the title even better! But I hate-literally hate-the title of the genre. Namely, "behavioral economics."
One Economist to Rule Them All? Really? Do We Have To?
Last night on TV Ontario I participated in a roundtable discussion about economists’ culpability in the current financial mess, as well as about its potential for doing anything useful as we try to get out. On the one side, you had Ken Rogoff, arguing somewhat in favor of economics’ continuing credibility.

We Are All Stewards on Spaceship Earth
Science is confirming what wisdom traditions have pointed to for thousands of years: that everything around us is part of a living universe, and that we are only stewards of whatever we think we “own.” As the old economy of fear and greed is crumbling, a new economy of partnership is being born.

Are You The Perfect Fit For Your Role?

Social Emotional Intelligence in Leadership
Leaders and entire organizations have discovered that success in the workplace has significantly less to do with intelligence or core job competencies and more to do with emotional and behavioral intelligence. The best technicians and the most brilliant team members will often end up with the highest degree of dysfunction when their emotional intelligence is very low.
