Yes.. given that I think in possibilities, creative courage to bring ideas to life in small increments and working out loud to gain feedback has shaped a lot of how I work, learn, and express.

In a world marked by continual uncertainty, we need a fresh paradigm to navigate adulthood with agency, courage, and creativity. Jillian Reilly's new book "Ten Permissions" is a must read.

Courage is not about waiting for the big moment.. it is about building the muscle to respond to the small disruptive challenges every single day.

The Skills of the Future Aren’t New. We Just Stopped Valuing Them.

The tech world is acting like it discovered something revolutionary.
Curiosity.
Emotional intelligence.
Strategic questioning.

They’ve rebranded these as “AI skills.” But let’s be honest they were always leadership skills.

Day 7:

Eigentlich wollte ich nur ein paar gute Jobbörsen checken. Dann kam das #Rabbithole: 200 Plattformen in 11 Haupt- & 8 Teilgruppen. Wie findet man Jobs mit Sinn?

Arbeitstitel: #JobMatrix

Die Forschungsreise hat begonnen. Leitbild von @tanmayvora.bsky.social #tnvora <3

Illustration „Mindset Shifts for Organization Transformation“ von Tanmay Vora #tnvora.

Sie zeigt sechs Veränderungen im Denken von Organisationen, die auch für den Jobmarkt der Zukunft relevant sein könnten:

1. Von Profit zu Purpose – Arbeit sollte nicht nur finanziell lohnend sein, sondern auch Sinn stiften.
2. Von Hierarchien zu Netzwerken – Moderne Karrieren sind zunehmend vernetzt, weniger linear und hierarchisch.
3. Von Kontrolle zu Empowerment – Eigenverantwortung und flexible Arbeitsmodelle ersetzen starre Vorgaben.
4. Von Planung zu Experimentieren – Statt festgelegter Karrieren sind Lernbereitschaft und Anpassungsfähigkeit entscheidend.
5. Von Privatsphäre zu Transparenz – Offenheit über Gehälter, Unternehmenskultur und Arbeitsbedingungen wird immer wichtiger.

Diese Prinzipien passen perfekt zur JobMatrix-Forschungsreise, in der ich untersuche, wie Jobbörsen und Arbeitsplattformen sich weiterentwickeln sollten, um sinnvolle, nachhaltige und menschenzentrierte Arbeit zu ermöglichen.

As always @tanmayvora.bsky.social gets it right via @helenbevan.bsky.social . Particularly like panel on curiosity. Too many people are 'insufficiently curious'. Curiosity about what others know builds both understanding and genuine connection

There's a growing appreciation of the power of "empathetic leadership". Yet 52% of study respondents felt their organisation's efforts to be empathetic were dishonest. This suggests that while leaders are trying, many of us may be going about it wrong: t.co/2D5QlGLL4b. By tanmayvora.bsky.social

A journal can be a wonderful companion that helps clarify our thinking, process our emotions, express ideas and notice patterns that emerge from it all.

From the latest edition of my newsletter Clarity Canvas Weekly: open.substack.com/pub/clarityc...

Journaling for Leaders and Learners

A journal is a powerful tool for leaders to carve out time for active reflection and learning. Let's see how.

I created this sketchnote in 2015, not knowing that the advent of AI will bring back renewed focus on these power skills for humans to thrive.

What would you add to this list?

"What truly creates an impact and influences change in large and complex environments?" is a question I often ask myself as a change consultant. Stumbled upon a possible answer in Gary Hamel and Michele Zanini’s book “Humanocracy”.
