Hello, good game to stimulate participation. Every day, I read the worldwide new tendencies and how people try to adapt to their environment. Here, it is the start point for motivating my brain to create innovative solutions.

Elena, that's a great point. And the goal. Stimulate something new in you and others. And, yes, we should have fun with it!

This is a great story, Adela. Thanks, for sharing.

I'd be interested how all of the additional learning has made its way into your professional life. Has it changed you analogies, tidbits, ice-breaker opportunities? I'd bet you'd be a great resource for 'Did you Know' fact sharing.

Yes, it allows for more interesting discussions than the weather ^^

Otherwise, I noticed that it helps my sense of observation and analysis.

The new knowledge about psychology made me look differently at people and I find myself applying different tips that make me more present when exchanging with others. I have a new enhanced sense of empathy and overall I can read a little better the room when in a meeting.

Reading about history has helped me understand motivations behind actions. I try to always remind myself to look for that in my work so that I can understand what the others are driven by and therefore better negotiate, collaborate and exchange. I truly believe that this enhances my strategic thinking abilities.
Learning about the past and how a situation has been handled also provides a list of good options in case a difficult situation arises.
