I am reading Jan Carlzon. Have you read any good leadership literature?

Give me your good tips?

I am currently reading Jan Carlzon’s book “Tear down the pyramids”, a classic when it comes to leadership literature. Now I’m think I might read a lot more in that genre in the upcoming year. Maybe there’s is some truths to find in all these leadership books after all. Do you have any tips? Please tell me.

Jag måste säga att varje gång jag ägnar Write.as lite tid, eller kanske framförallt read.write.as lite tid så hittar jag alltid intressanta bloggare som jag aldrig annars hade upptäckt. Det finns en väldig massa därute på internet som kräver att man letar lite på andra ställen än de vanliga för upptäckas. Det är likadant på Micro.blog men det finns mer personal journals på Write.as är min bild. Dock, Micro.blog har något minst lika intressant och givande. 🇸🇪

My wife is such a good planner. I am grateful for that. Today my parents visited us (it’s been years due to the pandemic) in Stockholm and we had a really good time. We met at the central station downtown and walked through the old town.

We stayed at a place I’ve never been to before and had a fika (coffee and something sweet to eat with it, for example a piece of cake or pie or a cinnamon bun) and continued to our apartment. We had some wine, ate a home cooked meal and talked about all kinds of things. None of this would have happened if my wife hadn’t planned it all and invited my parents. Especially not now when I’m all stressed out and tired because of my work situation.

I wish I could show you a picture of us all together but I forgot to take any pictures.

How’s your day?

This is my new favourite place. I’ve been here the last couple of weekends, alone with a cup of coffee and maybe a book. A short stop on a regular detour.

After this I’ll visit the church around the corner. It’s something new, a longing for sitting down in a church for some time. I guess it has to do with a stressful situation in my work life.

I woke up early this Saturday morning. The last time that happened was, well I don’t remember. I have been so tired for so long. I used to run three times a week, the last six months it’s happened a few times all together. So when I was laying there in bed, awake before everyone else in the family, I made a decision.

I have been moving around during the last year or so. Left W.A for Blot.im but didn’t like it enough to stay there. Did Micro.Blog during all that time (and still do) but this editor has got something special. I really need the white blank screen to get my fingers going on the j keyboard.

Got the chance to test a Chromebook for a couple of weeks. My office wants me to give it a hard time and then come back with an honest review. One thing I like is the speed. One thing I don’t like is the keyboard, it has a plastic feeling.

And one of the programs I am using now and then, Newspilot, hasn’t got a web app so I have to work around that, read let someone else do that stuff for me.

Read it as soon it’s translated to English. But start with book number one: Nattavaara. The trilogy is about Sweden in the future, after a collapse of society as we know it.
