Andrei Drăgănescu — How “Be the Dumbest in the Room” Makes Everyone
Dumber
Don’t aim to be the dumbest person in the room. Aim to be the most prepared.
Preparedness respects your colleagues’ time, amplifies their expertise, and
makes collaboration richer. You can still learn — but without turning every meeting into a
school day and every co-worker into your tutor.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
