emotional tug and journalistic approach
Posted on July 31, 2006 by Toby Getsch
I’ve never in my life felt like a journalist before. I don’t know what it’s like to be part of the press. I cannot relate to the gripping desire some people have to “get the story out” while putting their own lives in danger. There is much about that which I have never experienced. So, [...]

Jonathan Schwartz lunches w/ Tony Blair
Posted on July 31, 2006 by Toby Getsch
In Jonathan Schwartz’s post about lunch with British Prime Minister Tony Blair, he notes how public education, and the children of those publicly educated, made up a majority portion of those in that lunch meeting. As I commented on his blog post, I found that interesting. Hmmm… The public school tidbit was interesting, especially considering [...]

leadership
Posted on July 30, 2006 by Toby Getsch
Hey Aaron~ (Or, anyone else who wants to chime in, please do!) We’ve had some previous conversation about leadership. I came across a few articles via Encarta. What Is a Leader? “…The irreducible minimum definition of a leader is someone with followers, but that bare bones formulation prompts the question: Why do some people–and not [...]

More talk about learning from “listening”
Posted on July 30, 2006 by Toby Getsch
Scoble talks of “What I learned from BlogHer“. Notice how much of that post’s focus is on listening? Yeah, it’s *huge* and I’d argue one of the most important things that big companies struggle with. Everyone can learn to listen more and to listen better. Technorati Tags: Leadership, Listening, Perspective

Seth Godin on Belief
Posted on July 30, 2006 by Toby Getsch
Belief People don’t believe what you tell them. They rarely believe what you show them. They often believe what their friends tell them. They always believe what they tell themselves. Yup. Technorati Tags: Ideas, Leadership, Listening, Perspective

“dilemma” – Is it Monday yet?
Posted on July 30, 2006 by Toby Getsch
Dave Gray posts about “The lifehacker’s dilemma” with “Vitruvian Mann“. If you haven’t stopped by his blog, there are often great visual tidbits that add inspired perspective. My dilemma was that I was supposed to take a blog break until Monday. I was relatively relaxed and done with most of the other stuff I needed [...]

a number of posts today
Posted on July 26, 2006 by Toby Getsch
I’m not sure, but I think today I posted more posts than any previous days. A few of those posts have been more like journal entries. I feel a groove coming on. Sometimes the writing just flows. Man, I sure wish I had this feeling back in college when I was working on various papers!

Tons of Ideas
Posted on July 26, 2006 by Toby Getsch
As I think about what I want to do, and what I have done, and where I want to go, and where I have been, and who I want to know, and who I have known, and what I want to learn, and what I have learned… I find one common thread. Ideas. I have [...]

Here’s something I have never had to deal with.
Posted on July 26, 2006 by Toby Getsch
From a blogger in Beirut… Um I would like to know why this Israeli jet is circling so loudly overhead for the past 10 mn and if it would just please drop that bomb and get it over with, because the suspense is killing me. UPDATE: At the request of the original author, in relation [...]
