- Sharlin 1y agoTo executives, responding to communication is equal to working because communication is all that they do. Same reason that so much time is wasted on meetings: for the people who organize meetings they are what work is, rather than wasted time.
- herval 1y agoLife is always about optics. Medieval kings wore a piece of gold over their heads for optics. I guess more people are just starting to realize this because many powerful people are actually dropping some of the well-accepted optics (particularly in tech, where people felt they were treated better than the average employee for a long time)

Maybe a paper notebook is the new clipboard these day though, some moleskin hipster thingy, nice fountain pen with a nib, I dunno. Anyone else have suggestions on how to shine on management in 2025?
