You can be convinced that someone is wrong and still treat that person with respect. That sounds simple. But it can become surprisingly difficult when the disagreement involves something important to us. Maybe a coworker has a completely different opinion about how to handle a project.

We have more ways to communicate than ever before. Email, text messages, video meetings, instant messaging, shared documents, project management software—the list seems endless. With all those tools, you'd think communication would be better than ever. But is it? We can exchange information instantly with people anywhere in the world and still leave them [...]
AI may need regulation. But before we create new rules, we should understand who is asking for them, why they want them, and who those rules might protect. I use artificial intelligence regularly.

And it is both of those things. But forgiveness is not only about the heart in the figurative sense. It can also affect the [...]
Jigsaw puzzles may seem like a simple pastime. You spread the pieces on a table. You turn them right side up. You look for the edges. You sort by color, shape, pattern, or whatever system makes sense to you. Then, piece by piece, the picture begins to come together. But puzzles are more than [...]
