What a simple yet thought-provoking perspective on psychological safety!
“How did business get so disconnected from being alive?”

This week in #psychologicalsafety, by Jade Garratt:

Whether we work mostly online or in offices, classrooms, or public spaces, it can be easy to get “in our heads” and forget to feel into our bodies.

Cool study here on personality and professions!
A bit late to the party, but I finally read this interesting article about how occupations tend to attract people with certain personality traits.

I’ll share a few thoughts below 🧵, but here’s a link to the full study: doi.org/10.1037/apl0...

There are few better feelings than when former students go off and do great things, and then write to you and let you know about them.

Students: never wonder if you should get in touch with a former teacher or supervisor to share this kind of thing. It is one of the purest rewards there is. /1

Last research methods seminar of the term! If there's been a theme to this course, it's that science would be a lot better off if we asked questions that we really want answers to rather than questions that we think we know answers to.

Other countries have safety nets. The US has women.

Their labor creates the illusion of a DIY society, making it seem like we don't need a net.
