Very happy to be at the Global Editors Network this year. The media industry needs to think differently about its potential broader role. It’s not just about writing articles, but creating healthy knowledge ecosystems. #GEN2018 #GENSummit

Great hearing a panel on socially conscious brands at the NewsWhip by Sprout Social event. For brands it’s important to listen to people online and find ways to measure their feelings. #whipsmart

Conventional ideas about managing change emphasize the need for new processes. But you can’t implement them effectively unless you understand that employees don’t always behave in rational ways. See the McKinsey & Company Classic: Managing irrationality mck.co/2V5PSKM

The idea of 'black box' algorithms is increasingly present in the conversation about #Facebook #FacebookDataBreach. Here's a graphic I made to describe a #blackbox in the simplest of terms. Algorithms, the more complex they are, are also more difficult to understand.

Great snapshot of our 2016 alum in the field. Back in 2016, they investigated birth registrations in South Africa. Tomorrow, this year's first team is taking off to Palestine to research cash transfers. Safe, insightful, fun travels, Saambavi Mano, @joudy__s, Kyle & Clara.
