We say we engage in "talent acquisition" instead of "recruiting. Do we go and pluck talent off a shelf somewhere? What if someone doesn't have all the "talent" you need right this instant? Does it acknowledge that we need to train and develop people?
And so I hate the "you're so talented" compliment. Because it pretends you did no work, and furthermore, I could never do what you did because I lack the talent. I could learn it. Well, if I wanted to and was willing to do the work. Some things come more easily to some people, of course, and if you want to be the absolute best in the world, you'll probably need a bit of inborn talent.
But, mainly success-whether in business, science, or art--comes after a lot of work. So, I've put together a list of 10 things to say instead of "you're so talented," to help us all remember that that success whatever it was wasn't talent, it was work. Here we go:.

Punchada Sirivunnabood, a professor of politics at Mahidol University, says this combination of events has driven the new wave of protest.

Disillusioned by years of military rule, protesters are now demanding amendments to the constitution, a new election, the prime minister's resignation and an end to the harassment of rights activists. The protests are technically banned under Thailand's coronavirus state of emergency - and breaking this ban carries a sentence of up to two years in jail. The movement is largely leaderless, but driven by a group known as the Free Youth.
This group, says Dr Aim Sinpeng at the University of Sydney, is "loosely composed of a number of university student associations and affiliated groups… [there's] no leader on purpose". She says they've learned from the Hong Kong protests of recent years, "where these groups represent free individuals that come together rather than being anchored down by particular organisations or political parties".
Pro-democracy - and anti-China - protesters in Thailand, Hong Kong and Taiwan have even dubbed themselves the "Milk Tea Alliance" - after the classic drink loved in all three places. And the Thais have found creative - and sometimes whimsical - methods of protest.
