Josh Bersin,
Jan 31, 2020
For people in the north part of northern hemisphere this is probably the most difficult time of the year as we struggle with illness and weather and darkness. It reminds us that, as Josh Bersin says, "the most important things in our lives are compassion, empathy, forgiveness, gratitude, mindfulness, social connection, and awe. These are all human issues, and all revolve around kindness." There's a tendency to blame things like lonliness and lack of compassion on our devices, but I think financial pressures, work demands, and other external stresses are playing a large role. Learning and pedagogy shouldn't be based on that harsh capitalist model of acquiring stuff - it should keep a "consistent focus on supporting people, understanding people, and giving people the opportunity to grow."
