Learning important things is not easy; learning important things requires effort; learning important things is ultimately worth the effort since doing so leads the learner-practitioner to not only acquire knowledge and skills, but also to tap a vein of meaning that can be self-reinforcing over time.

Last Week I Learned: Batch Scale Images with Automator (MacOS)

I think I have written about Automator before, and I still think it is a tool that I definitely underutilize and that most people don't frequently take advantage of. I needed to resize a bunch of images quickly and I thought I remembered how to do it in Photoshop but I wanted something that was quicker and easier to re-run. After dragging in 4 commands (it took a bit of trial and error) I got the result I wanted.

When I press Run, I get asked to choose a folder. After that, it copied the photos, opened the copies and resized them all. Now I did have a bunch of photos open on my screen but I just quit Preview and the process was all done.

Blending Leadership: Get Immediacy Right

You may want to provide something to your team member right away, but they may not be ready to receive it. Someone may have feedback for you, but if you’re in the middle of a stressful stretch of work, you might want to delay its delivery for a few days. Sometimes it’s your turn to use the road. Sometimes you have to hold off. What’s critical, for immediacy to flourish, is to resolve issues by thinking about eventualities before they happen. To work out solution, pass them around and test them in the real world. Get what you need, when you need it. Give others what they need, when they need it.

Last Week I Learned: Aswath Damodaran

Steve pointed me in the direction of this interview and encouraged me to read more about him (and we soon after interviewed him ourselves). He has written numerous books and taught for many years about his expertise: valuation. He also practices a generous spirit of teaching and connecting multiple projects and activities so there is no wasted effort. I recommend Narrative and Numbers, the first of his books that I have read.
