Hi Jewel, I'm a big fan. If Kaylee were a real person, I would marry her. I have two questions:

1) Would Kaylee say "yes" if I proposed? Keep in mind, I'm probably very charming in space. 2) If you could marry a fictional character, who would it be?

While working from home for the past 15 months I have been thinking a lot about coaching training and other "soft skills" trainings that I see marketed more and more as management tools. I have come to the conclusion that coaching or using "soft skills" without express consent is just manipulation and since I don't believe subordinates can give consent due to the power imbalance, managers/bosses practicing these skills are just manipulating employees.

I see you have ethics standards as part of your organization and I am curious if they have focused on this at all?

I don't agree that all human interaction is but I do believe all attempts to use people skills in pursuit of an outcome determined by you is manipulation.
