A bold - but true - statement from @JMMontgomeryCo:. ‘Saying “I don’t know” isn’t a sign of ignorance. It’s a sign of confident humility.’. How comfortable are you saying it?.
One of the most powerful statements we can ever make in our business and our life is "I don't know.". In a world full of people who seem to be under the undeniable impression that they know everything, a person who can say, "I don't know," is a breath of fresh air.

Create peer-learning through some ‘Coffee and Clausewitz’. “…safeguard these activities. If you want to establish true peer-learning it is important that everyone sees this time as a valuable investment.”.#PME #Leadership.
