I like the idea of trying to have some kind of “great thoughts time” each week.
The “having an open office door is better” claim is interesting to think about when I’m considering whether / in what way to return to the office now that it’s an option.
I think a lot about optimal work hours for myself, and I take this talk as a data point in favour of “work long hours”
The vision + research management point kind of resonates / makes sense.
Maybe it could be interesting to try “overpromising” to boost productivity.

You might be interested in checking out Ingredients for creating disruptive research teams e.g. on vision, autonomy, spaces for interaction.
Also I noticed that Jess Whittlestone wrote some probably much better notes on this a few years ago
