I’m looking forward to when we can meet in person again. In anticipation, this post highlights two best practices for short and focused meetings that also translate virtually.

Thank you for your transcendent performance yesterday, Amanda Gorman. I join the chorus in shouting: BRAVO! Tasked with composing a poem about national unity (honestly, I don’t know how you did it!), you did not succumb to platitudes.
