Over at the GreenBook blog they’ve got a good overview of how using chats via messaging platforms affects the survey respondent experience. It provides a good overview of the approach and highlights some recent insights about the experience it provides. A really nice “research on research” piece for practitioners.

Early in my career - honestly, even mid-way through my career - I often found it difficult to speak up in meetings. A lot of it had to do with personal confidence. But as I gained experience and expertise, it became easier to contribute, and, more importantly, it demonstrated my commitment to the work, the team, and the company overall. Over at HBR, there’s a good piece on understanding how to speak up (and when to hold back) that I found very interesting.

Have you see Free Solo? We watched it last weekend and were on the edges of seats through the entire movie. The story is engaging and the visuals amazing. Highly recommended!
