Completing Commoncog’s Repositioning (and Going On Paternity Leave) - Commoncog

Over the past nine months my wife and I have been quietly incubating a baby. We welcomed her a few nights ago, and I … am going on paternity leave here at Commoncog.

It strikes me that I could do the funniest thing ever, which is to reposition Commoncog into a parenting site. :zany_face:

I’ll show myself out now …

Well congratulations! I guess after the not having children thread you thought you should try out both!

I often say that parenting is a pure form of leadership, where they are dependent on us and yet we try to avoid punitive methods of behavior change. I’ve definitely learned a significant amount about leadership dealing with my different children.

Plus I’m learning how to communicate even more clearly now that I’m playing ELI5 every day.

Clear communication and expectation setting - critical components of leadership and therefore business. But not so much good for the making money part - definitely the opposite!

Also, congratulations Cedric!
