Daily Favorites (February 7, 2023)

This is my new page that links to some of my daily favorite readings on leadership.  If they stretch the imagination and add to our understanding of the psychology of people, then I’m interested.  Normally, I post two (2) articles that I think are worthwhile to read.  There are articles here you will not want to read, read them any way:
