Discussion on: Aim for inspiration; motivation will follow.

Really like this, management is so different from our basic intuition, probably because we grew in an environment that is used to teach by discipline, not using inspiration

Especially loved that part about "When my son was born almost 6 years ago, I found myself sitting with him, but I wasn't really there"...

Thank you so much Yoni, it really amazing hearing that from you!

In general, I feel that becoming a father has "forced" me to be more engaged and focus, at home as well as at work.

When I'm conducting a meeting at work, I'm asking everyone to hide their phones, and turn off their laptops (pre-zoom-era), and I can totally see the difference in everyonces engagement, once all we focus on is each other and the task at hand.
