EK 837 Dubai to Bahrain on 15 May severe negligence on the treatment of disabled passengers by callous and untrained @emirates staff/ group. Passengers that required assistance were treated like baggage. Barbaric treatment by an airline that is trying to be #1. Is this allowed?

When people share their problems, they're not always looking for solutions. They're often seeking support. Sharing bad news may not make them feel better, but it does bring you closer. The most basic form of compassion is not alleviating distress. It's acknowledging distress.

Hey leaders: If people aren't coming to the office, look in the mirror. They're not avoiding work. They’re avoiding toxic cultures, micromanagers, constant interruptions, and countless hours wasted commuting. If you want people to show up more often, make it worth the trip.

The goal of a great discussion isn't to land on the same page. It’s to explore different views. Nods and smiles stroke your ego and close your mind. Thoughtful questions stoke your curiosity and stretch your thinking. Consensus makes you comfortable. Dissent makes you smarter.

Honesty isn't just a moral decision. It's a healthy choice. Experiments: avoiding lying for 10 weeks improves mental health by building stronger bonds. Honesty brings unexpected joy and connection. Lies erode trust. We count on people who tell the truth. Candor fuels closeness.

Loyalty doesn't require conformity. If consensus is wrong, you have an obligation to disagree. Weak leaders demand deference. Strong leaders welcome dissent. Being a team player is not about sacrificing your values for a group. It’s about acting in service of the greater good.
