There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Brené Brown, research professor at the University of Houston, founder and CEO of Brave Leaders Inc, and author of four No. 1 New York Times best-sellers, offered these insights to the first class: “Ask yourself, ‘Do I choose comfort or courage?’ Courage is a prerequisite for leadership and culture change, but leadership is hard, uncomfortable, and ultimately to serve others, not ourselves. To be an inclusive leader, you need to be willing to be uncomfortable because you are choosing to enter the ‘arena,’ a place where showing up and being brave requires us to face uncertainty and risk emotional exposure.”
