Reaping the Benefits

#braindump #eq
Section 3: “Reaping the Benefits” This section connects better listening and information management to better decision-making and benefits that can span entire organisations. Chapter 12: “Connecting Better Listening to Better Judgment” Learning from others and constantly reconstructing ideas leads to discoveries and insights. Chapter 13: “Changing Your Organisation through Listening” “Foster a more disciplined and productive organisation.” The example raised was the organisation of organisation-wide meetings. In these meetings, speakers need to be well-prepared and adhere to strict requirements.

Some Git

#git
I didn’t realise my pull request was between branches of the same repository. Not sure if my friend realised. I moved the feature branch’s latest updates to my fork’s feature branch. I then made another pull request. I used the following commands to straighten things out: # Create a local branch with the same name as the origin remote feature branch git checkout -b feat/simple-compound-interest-calculators # Pull in the changes from the origin remote git pull # Set the upstream to the origin remote feature branch git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/feat/simple-compound-interest-calculators feat/simple-compound-interest-calculators # Check the remotes and their URLs git remote -v # Add the remote for my fork git remote add jiayee git@github.
