Some key thoughts on Johnson

Here are some of the notes we took in class on JOHNSON:

• Don't get defensive
• We need to change how we think
• Just Say It!
• Work on better communication -- use taboo words
• Be aware
• We must make change from the top down

And I will add that Johnson also warns us of the "luxury of obliviousness" -- the ability for people in power to be completely unaware of things that people without power expereince int he world.
