I used to think the quality of communication comes from speaking well. Now I realized that it is only partly true. Real communication deeply depends on listening. What I see from all my private courses and consultancy sessions is that people lack good listeners in their lives. People tend to

I have a personal guideline on decision making. Obviously, it is not in the form of a list, but in a form of principles that I hold intuitively and rationally. Those points are important for me when I make a decision. If you find them valuable, feel free to implement
