Conversation 34: The I have a saying conversation with Richard Medcalf

Richard Medcalf

Richard and I spoke about cell phones and as he said: Don’t put your phone on the table at lunch or dinner.

Although there is nothing on this, I loved the idea of “I have a saying” followed by a mantra.

Richard spoke about language defining the culture.  Here is more about that concept.

I mentioned The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz to Richard and the first agreement to be impeccable with your words.

Richard suggested checking out the CXO’s Checklist for Challenging Times available on his website.

I was unaware of VUCA: Volatile – Uncertain – Complex = Ambiguous.  Apparently it’s a thing.  Here is a website to get you started.

Richard recommended reading The Black Swan by Nassim Taleb (I concur).
