AN ARTICLE A DAY, PICKED BY OUR EDITORS
What if real toughness involves getting a little vulnerable? You’re probably familiar with Terry Crews from his TV and film work, including Brooklyn Nine-Nine. As an actor and former NFL player, he’s often seen as someone who is physically strong and ready for anything. But in his new book, Tough: My Journey to True Power, he pushes back on traditional standards of toughness and goes deeper on his journey to mental health and advocacy for gender and equity issues. He also touches on the creative process and how to ask for help. Don’t miss this new Author Talks interview for more on how business leaders can open up while getting tough.

Quote of the Day
“I just encourage you to think about building that human connection before you think about how you might advance someone’s agenda. And get to know them a little bit and show yourself a little bit before you worry about proving yourself to them. And also, remember that spontaneous interactions can sometimes be the best ones”
Manish Chopra, McKinsey senior partner, on his first one-on-one conversation with a CEO in the latest episode of My Rookie Moment
