Description

You probably don’t think of the Internet as an actual place but it really is – sort of. All of our computers have to connect to each other somewhere – and there is a place where that happens. And that place has a particular smell to it. This episode begins with an explanation. Source: Andrew Blum author of the book Tubes (https://amzn.to/3pwX3Jq).
It is hard to argue with nice. Being nice to other people in generally regarded as a good thing. But you can also be TOO nice – which can cause a lot of trouble. Aziz Gazapura used to be one of those people and he is now on a mission to help people stop being too nice. Listen as he reveals what the problem is, what it does to you and how to be nice – without being too nice. Aziz is the author of the book, Not Nice: Stop People Pleasing, Staying Silent, & Feeling Guilty… And Start Speaking Up, Saying No, Asking Boldly, And Unapologetically Being Yourself (https://amzn.to/3K6KqhA)

And here to explain how to do it is Emily Hunter. Emily is an associate professor of management at Baylor University’s Hankamer School of Business, where she teaches negotiation and conflict management. https://business.baylor.edu/directory/?id=Emily_M_Hunter
