Starting my MBA soon, and the class Slack is overwhelming. People are organizing networking hangouts, alumni panels, community service, etc. The calls I’ve been on have felt a bit tryhard. I’m burnt out from work and don’t really want to engage until the fall. That said, I also can’t help but feel I’ll be at a disadvantage if I don’t. Thoughts?

How do you stay motivated and deliver effective arguments when you’re sitting in your office appearing via zoom? I can’t stand trying to look right at the camera the whole time and having to remain seated. I’m supposed to do a court trial next week via zoom and I’m nervous about how it’s going to go. I’ve gotten very limited and unhelpful guidance from the court on the procedure. I’m not even sure how to offer an exhibit over zoom.

When agency leaders talk to the press and run internal diversity programs, do they even realize they’re the ones that have driven every decision that led us to this point?

When they lead these all agency zoom calls, do they even take a look at the folks in the grid looking back at them? It’s clear they have not walked the walk in their hiring practices.

I think it’s time the people in the lower echelons drive the change. We have to push harder. We have to hold our agencies accountable.

When you ask an anonymous question on zoom, it’s anonymous to the hosts/leaders too right?

General question: is there any certain “rule of thumb” post that you sell to take profiles? I’ve seen some experts (“”) say to always collect at 20% and others say until you see a reason to sell. Asking as rearranged last week and luckily got into the airlines before they exploded and now I’m sitting about 50% up on delta. And after selling Zoom way to early (used to buy my delta), I’m not sure whether to take the cash or let it ride more. This fast a rally makes me think it will plummet soon

As a leader, I try to use what power and influence I have to make change. Yesterday, on a holding co leadership call when trying to get a Fortune 15 company to meaningfully act.

If I am this exhausted, frustrated, and drained in this moment, I can only imagine this is a sliver of what others feel every day.
