The Wharton Neuroscience Initiative used an exercise (aka "Fast Friends") to boost online collaboration amongst native Argentine women working with a distribution co-op. Here we explain how. FYI their bags rock! Vera Ludwig Knowledge at Wharton Wharton Brain knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/creati…

Discover how #FastFriends, a scientifically validated exercise, may foster authentic connections in #RemoteWork teams. Excited to share pilot findings with Matriarca (Argentina, materart.com) & a step-by-step guide in this article Knowledge at Wharton knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/creati…

Talking about the crossroads of sexuality & faith in my latest video with Reverend Dr. Beverly Dale, a sex-positive Christian reverend. We explore historical narratives, shed light on topics like ethical porn, biblical views on nudity & lust.🎥✨ youtu.be/ARstv2NpWxc?fe…

*Very* excited to see the last study of my PhD making the cover of Science Magazine on the macaques of Caribbean Primate Research Center. We show that ecological disturbances can alter selective pressures on social ties leading to persistent societal changes. shorturl.at/i2WIB 🧵👇

Great study!

Originally developed by Aron et al. (1997), Michael Platt and I describe how the Fast Friends exercise can help foster team connections in virtual settings. Try it out and let us know how it went! Shout-out to Jerry Cai, NaiMing Chen, and the Matriarca team.

In remote work environments, leaders are being challenged to build collaboration and trust within their teams. Michael Platt and Vera Ludwig adapted the popular “Fast Friends” exercise to help, sharing 8 action steps in this #WhartonExecEd Nano Tool. whr.tn/4ggUjJy

Real vs. Cheap Meaning Something has been weighing on my mind awhile. I've been thinking a lot about it, and my observation is that since so many people are experiencing a crisis of meaning today due to such uncertainty (Dr John Vervaeke), it seems like so many people are
