The late Senator from New York, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, famously said, “You’re entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts.” These words are as true and important as ever right now. On this episode, I share my thoughts on the Presidential election results, and more broadly, on the importance of truth in our relationships, our teams, our society, and in life in general. For us to come together and create positive change, we have to be dealing with the same set of facts.
Now that the election is over, it’s important for us to focus on the hard work of coming together. What has been reinforced in recent days, weeks, and months is how divided we are as a nation. This division doesn’t serve us and is incredibly detrimental to so many aspects of life and society. On this episode, I share my reflections on where we are right now and offer some specific ideas of what we can do personally to create more unity and togetherness in our families, teams, communities, and our country.
Full Show NotesThis has been an extraordinary week here in the United States with an unprecedented Presidential election. And, while at the time of recording and posting this episode the final results of the election are not in, what has been reinforced by how it is playing out, is that we’re a deeply divided nation. On this episode, I share my thoughts about the election, where we are, and how we move forward on the other side of this.
Full Show NotesI’ve been thinking about fairness a lot recently. We’re less than a week away from the election here in the United States and while I have both strong opinions and deep concerns about the outcome, what’s most important to me is that everyone who wants to vote is able to do so…and that all of the votes are counted fairly. On this episode, I talk about the election, the recent Supreme Court confirmation, and the World Series, all in the context of fairness. And, we discuss how essential fairness is to the integrity of outcomes, as well as to the morale, trust, and culture of any group, team, family, community, or society.
Full Show NotesWe’re less than two weeks away from the election here in the United States, and it’s hard not to be aware of the intensity and importance of it. For a number of reasons, I’ve been feeling scared – anxious to see how it all plays out and nervous about the outcome. On this episode, I talk about my personal feelings about the election and also about some of the challenges we face in our relationships with people who may be voting for a different candidate than we are. I offer some ideas for how we can navigate these challenges before and after the election. I also talk about how we can take positive actions before the election, and then focus on healing and coming together after it’s over.
