I used to think I understood Dada and surrealism.

Today I'm excited to be in the UK, attending and speaking at #NDCLondon!
My talk today's about the power of regret: what it is, how it works, and how to use it effectively, especially for leaders and teams. Today at 13:40 in Room 2 if you happen to be attending!
