We dive into the benefits of enabling daily learning into our processes, while it's egregiously late for Joe, Michael's impersonation is awful, and Allen's speech is degrading.

Enable and Inject Learning into Daily Work
- To work on complex systems effectively and safely we must get good at:
- Detecting problems,
- Solving problems, and
- Multiplying the effects by sharing the solutions within the organization.
- The key is treating failures as an opportunity to learn rather than an opportunity to punish.
Establish a Just, Learning Culture
- By promoting a culture where errors are “just” it encourages learning ways to remove and prevent those errors.
- On the contrary, an “unjust” culture, promotes bureaucracy, evasion, and self-protection.
- This is how most companies and management work, i.e. put processes in place to prevent and eliminate the possibility of errors.
- Rather than blaming individuals, take moments when things go wrong as an opportunity to learn and improve the systems that will inevitably have problems.
- Not only does this improve the organization’s systems, it also strengthens relationships between team members.
- When developers do cause an error and are encouraged to share the details of the errors and how to fix them, it ultimately benefits everyone as the fear of consequences are lowered and solutions on ensuring that particular problem isn’t encountered again increase.

Model Wars
On the surface, the modeling industry in the 80s was about parties and pretty clothes, but underneath the flash, there were drugs, sex, and violence. And Paul Fisher, a former straight-A student from the San Fernando Valley, rose to prominence amidst the turmoil. After a chance encounter with an alleged mobster, Paul suddenly found himself with a million dollars in funding and the chance to start a modeling agency in New York City. The city was then embroiled in a “model war” between industry titans Eileen Ford and John Casablancas, and Paul tried to make his mark. But even as Paul thrived in the party-heavy culture of the time, burning cash like a furnace, he came face to face with the darkest forces in the industry. As his shady backers put the screws to him, Paul faced down deadly consequences, trying to make a star while saving his soul.
