Yoon Suk Yeol delivering a heartfelt rendition of American Pie is the wholesome moment we all need right now.
South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol grabbed a mic and sang the Don Mclean classic “American Pie” to an astonished audience at the White House state dinner. “I had no damn idea you could sing,” Biden told his counterpart. https://t.co/MIYlQuZvwk

"Goodreads members called it an “excellent” guide for anyone who sees an opportunity for social or organizational change... calling out Budak’s practical tips for influencing change when you are not in a position of influence or authority as “especially helpful.” @gcpbalance

3️⃣ STAND FOR SOMETHING - values like "excellence" are inoffensive, but are also so ubiquitous to be virtually meaningless. Be proud of being different and putting your values out into the world -- think of @BerkeleyHaas w/ Question the Status Quo & Confidence without Attitude.
