      <image:caption>“In another book by J. M. Barrie called The Little White Bird … he writes …’Shall we make a new rule of life … always to try to be a little kinder than is necessary?’ Kinder than is necessary. What a marvellous line, isn’t it? Kinder than is necessary. Because it’s not enough to be kind. One should be kinder than needed. Why I love that line, that concept, is that it reminds me that we carry with us, as human beings, not just the capacity to be kind, but the very choice of kindness.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“During downsizing, workers can experience ‘emotional exhaustion’ as an outcome of the higher levels of job uncertainty and lack of personal control. After downsizing, surviving workers cite adverse changes in working conditions, including higher levels of work demands, lower levels of friendship formation, and supervisor aggression, and it is also adversely associated with an inability to unwind after work and lower job satisfaction.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“The most important part of getting cost-effective software development is to hire the best team you can, even if the individual cost of the developers is much higher than the average. A few high-ability (and expensive) people will be much more productive than many low-ability (cheap) developers. That productivity difference means that a few high-ability people will produce software more cheaply even if they cost more on a daily rate.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“By always striving for 100 percent effort, we try to take on too much. When it comes time to perform, there’s only so much we can focus on or remember at once. If we try to manage every detail, we inevitably get stuck in our heads and tense up.  Instead, when we let go of the idea of perfection and aim just low enough—at around 85 percent effort, we’re able to get out of our own way and let our subconscious self do what we’ve trained it to do. Not only does this make us more effective performers, but it makes our progress more sustainable.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“It will take a different mindset on management’s part, but if leaders can embrace the idea that remote work is for concentrating and headquarters is for cooperating, offices might become very different, and vastly superior: more meeting rooms, more social spaces, more natural light, more greenery. Executives might not shorten the long commutes remote workers are desperate to avoid, but they can rethink what their offices offer employees and make those treks more worthwhile.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Anyone who has a say in how they run brainstorming sessions or idea gathering sessions (should) embrace the fact that everyone has different styles and try to accommodate them. So instead of getting everyone together for a one-hour brainstorm where they're constantly talking over each other, maybe do an offline document where people contribute all their ideas, not just their best one that they can get in during the time allotted. It's all about inclusivity.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Imagine a stack of 400 quarters. Each quarter represents 250 years of human culture, and the entire stack signifies the 100,000 years we’ve had organised human tribes. Take the top quarter off the stack. This one quarter represents how many years our society has revolved around factories and jobs and the world as we see it. The other 399 coins stand for a very different view of commerce, economy, and culture. Our current view might be the new normal, but the old normal was around for a very long time.”</image:caption>

It’s the behaviour that is tolerated, not your words, that determines the real culture. Company values are invisible. What’s rewarded and punished shouldn’t be.”</image:caption>

I think India could get a lot of talent back from the West, but it’s not only India. I think the Indian smaller towns could be the winners. Because there are tier-two, tier-three cities which have enough of an infrastructure that you could work remotely and there’s all the benefits of lower cost of living. And I think they could be the real winners instead of Bangalore or Hyderabad or Delhi.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“In 2018 Americans’ commute time averaged 27.1 minutes each way, or about 4.5 hours a week. Eliminating that commute—particularly in places where most people commute by car—generates a significant reduction in emissions. The USPTO estimates that in 2015 its remote workers drove 84 million fewer miles than if they had been travelling to headquarters, reducing carbon emissions by more than 44,000 tons.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Whenever you have different people making judgments, rather than assign the judgement to one person or gathering three people to talk about it around the table, get them to make their judgments independently and take the average of that. Or use some other variation on that theme. But essentially preserve the independence of people’s judgments before you aggregate them. That’s a big tool.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Design docs should be sufficiently detailed but short enough to actually be read by busy people. The sweet spot for a larger project seems to be around 10-20ish pages. If you get way beyond that, it might make sense to split up the problem into more manageable sub problems. It should also be noted that it is absolutely possible to write a 1-3 page ‘mini design doc’.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“How does your day accumulate mass? I have these three, four, five standup meetings. I check in one-on-ones with these people every week. Before you know it, you’ve created entitlements around 30 hours of your week. That’s just at the baseline. There’s 10 hours left now to do things. Not that the other stuff isn’t work, but that it’s already accounted for. I loath that sense. I get such an anxiety of feeling I’m being held down in such a way if my week is fully structured in a way that’s just accounted for, that I can’t get out of. No. Absolutely not.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Some decisions are consequential and irreversible or nearly irreversible one-way doors (Type 1 decisions). If you walk through and don't like what you see on the other side, you can't get back to where you were before. But most decisions are changeable, reversible - they're two-way doors (Type 2 decisions). You can reopen the door and go back through. As organisations get larger, there seems to be a tendency to use the heavyweight Type 1 decision-making process on most decisions, including many Type 2 decisions. The end result of this is slowness, unthoughtful risk aversion, failure to experiment sufficiently, and consequently diminished invention.”</image:caption>

To be successful at GitLab, team members need to develop their daily priorities to achieve goals. Managers of one set the tone for their work, assign items and determine what needs to get done. No matter what role you serve, self-leadership is an essential skill needed to be successful as a manager of one.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“It’s always long form, always thought out, and this is 99% of the conversations we have about everything. I understand why we can be sceptical about this. For example, decision making is delayed, because most things will take at least 24 hours to move ahead. The truth is… this leads to better discussion… thoughtful ways of approaching a problem which in the end leads to better decisions. So we can take the hit on decision speed, because we gain on decision quality.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - There’s got to be a better way to work</image:title>
      <image:caption>“Asynchronous work is the practice of working on a team that doesn’t require multiple people to be online simultaneously. You do as much as you can with what you have, write things up clearly, transfer ownership of the work to whoever needs to pick it up next and then work on something else.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>When you're operating on the maker's schedule, meetings are a disaster. A single meeting can blow a whole afternoon, by breaking it into two pieces, each too small to do anything hard in… For someone on the maker's schedule, having a meeting is like throwing an exception. It doesn't merely cause you to switch from one task to another; it changes the mode in which you work.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“There are many times when work isn’t ready for us to tackle, tasks aren’t planned, decision makers aren’t online, etc. In these times, successful teams execute, even if they later have to refactor and adapt, they don’t waste time ‘waiting’.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Collaboration gets a whole lot easier when your team can see what’s on your plate. Sharing your planned work gives your team a chance to react, ask follow-up questions, and share ideas to help your day-to-day tasks run as smoothly as possible. You can drag and drop work items from tools like GitHub, Linear, and Jira to quickly add context to your check-in, without having to rewrite tasks.</image:caption>
