1/14 Just listened to @tferriss<>@ericschmidt reminiscing about late/great Bill Campbell aka $Trillion Coach. Sharing key lessons as they relate to #coaching. NB. Haven't read book yet - on pre-order! tim.blog/2019/04/09/eri…
2/14 On why even the best need a coach 😉
Re: tennis analogy, recommend 'The Inner Game of Tennis' by Gallwey (1st to demonstrate method of non-directive coaching applied beyond sport)
3/14 Why does #coaching matter? @ericschmidt explains 1) coaching is not mentoring 2) a company is not an individual, it’s a team of individuals
4/14 More on the (very important) difference btw #coaching & #mentoring here: richardhughesjones.com/difference-bet…
5/14 Politics & egos get in the way of even the best teams!
6/14 Identifying a fundamental coaching principle - helping others identify & develop THEIR best ideas
7/14 The difference btw a coach & manager (note these are NOT mutually exclusive: a good manager IS a good coach)
8/14 Coaching for improved team decision making
9/14 On confidentiality & values (trusted advisor)
10/14 'Leader as Coach'
11/14 @ericschmidt advice for finding a coach
(My own thoughts here: richardhughesjones.com/how-to-find-ch…)
12/14 On BC's principles, the enduring value he created & the fun of having "a very fast-moving team where everyone’s rowing in the same direction"
13/14 "Everyone needs a coach" (I'm obviously biased but @ericschmidt says so 😉)
14/14 I 1st heard about Bill Campbell several years ago. Had a crazy idea I might meet him one day. Sadly, will never happen but can't wait to read this book! TY @ericschmidt @jjrosenberg @aeaglejr for sharing the story, @tferris for great interview & BC for being a legend 👊🙌🙏

1/ "Brilliance can’t be taught, but the operational stuff can be. Do you have operational instincts? Who cares? If you work with me for six months, I can give you enough prowess and process to be able to go run something, and do something with it.” Bill Campbell (AKA "coach").
2/“You need a leader. You have to go out and recruit the best person you can who knows how to create an innovation culture. Give that person license to hire. Get yourself some teams. Recruit people who have the ‘DNA’ that you want.” Coach Campbell
3/ “He or she doesn’t need to be personally the most innovative person, but he or she needs to know how to foster innovation. It is all about people. If you have the right people, you will end up with the right culture.” Coach Campbell

<Thread> I often talk about civ-mil gaps, but the hardest gap for me to talk about is the sacrifice gap. It’s hard to quantify, and it’s personal. But in The Fighters @cjchivers says a lot of things I haven’t been able to express or that I’ve struggled to talk about for years. 1/
I’ve tweeted about this book before, but when I did, I hadn’t actually read the last chapter. It’s the most powerful, & I really think it’s the best non-fiction book about the wars I’ve read. So, a few bourbons in, I wanna talk about why it’s so great. 2/
The book tells the story of 5 service members from different ranks & services who fought in Iraq & Afghanistan. It traces their lives over more than a decade and, in so doing, it tells the story of the wars from the perspective of some of us who fought it. 3/

Last night I posted a thread about an experience I had that taught me a great deal about God. Since it provides needed context for tonight’s episode, if you haven’t read it, you should read it first. threadreaderapp.com/thread/1009251…
Tonight I want to talk about the negative overhang. (You’ll understand what that means a little later.) Last night’s thread showed how God took care of my physical needs. Tonight, I want to talk about how God helped me trust in him and overcome fear.
After we arrived at the camp, we had a pretty full schedule. Every day was full of hiking and cliff climbing. Most days, I relied on my physical skill to climb. I felt like I was in control and could handle the effort. Then came the negative overhang.

Accessible introductory information (as it sticks closely to the #PrimarySource, the #Senate's #CIA #TortureReport):

" Read the Senate’s executive summary of the CIA torture report
The report found that the methods used by the CIA were more brutal than the agency acknowledged either to Bush administration officials or to the public. "

J'ai envie de me laisser tenter :
1 fav = une information en chimie que tu pourras ressortir en soirée.
1️⃣ Le gymnémate de potassium neutralise le goût sucré : mettre un petit tas de sucre sur la langue donne l'impression de manger du sable.
2️⃣ Le bismuth est un des rares éléments qui se dilate en gelant : tel la glace flotte sur l'eau, un morceau de Bi flotte sur son liquide.
