Book: Closing the Innovation Gap
The best talent embodies the five core values and has the right combination of aptitude, skill, judgment, passion, and drive.

Stomach ache and Frequent Restroom Problem
Stomach ache and Frequent Restroom Problem
I have a daily schedule of bowel movement. Yet today, something is wrong…
Notice: I’ll try to be graphic here so if you don’t like to imagine some poop talk, don’t read any further.
It started this morning when I finished my daily schedule. I had oatmeal, milkfish and hamburger bun w/ chizwiz parmesan for breakfast. I believe I had two trips to the restroom with normal poop.
For lunch, I ate at Racks and I ate a 1/2 beef rack with...
