There are so many โ€œmenโ€ and โ€œwomenโ€

My late teens son asked me โ€œwhen do you know youโ€™re a man (adult)? My visceral response was โ€œwhen your are responsible for others and embrace that responsibilityโ€

What would you say?

What would need to change in your systems (not your people) to make connection a natural outcome of work?

โ€œWhen you work, you learn.โ€

Yea, yea we hear it all the time but this was from my ~90 year old ophthalmologist as we discussed careers and what was behind his professional longevity during my appointment. He saw work as his greatest avenue for continuous learning.

Iโ€™m also betting on f2f events. People will crave time together (micro and macro) as we are evolutionarily built for it. We are โ€˜social by designโ€™ ๐Ÿ˜
