▼ + stars: | 2024-05-19 | by ( Morgan Smith | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

The trick to getting ahead at work isn't being the fastest learner or the smartest in the room — it's having a positive attitude, says Amazon CEO Andy Jassy. Jassy, who took the top job at Amazon after Jeff Bezos stepped down in 2021, shared his "best career advice" in a new interview with LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky. "I think an embarrassing amount of how well you do, particularly in your 20s, has to do with attitude," Jassy, 56, said. Having a positive attitude means you work well on a team and honor deadlines, among other strengths. Regardless of where you're at in your career, having a positive attitude can help you build stronger relationships in the workplace.

Soweto, South Africa CNN —Seth Mazibuko strides into the intersection of Moema and Vilakazi Street in Soweto, gesturing to the spot that changed South African history. Cars are used as roadblocks on June 21, 1976, during unrest in Soweto, South Africa, stemming from protests against the use of Afrikaans in schools. But as South Africans celebrate 30 years of democracy this week, many educators and activists believe that there is a crisis hollowing out the country’s education system – a crisis that threatens democracy’s hard-fought gains. Despite substantial education funding, South African students consistently rank among the lowest in global assessments of literacy and numeracy skills. South Africa has the highest unemployment rate in the world and many university graduates struggle to enter the workforce.

Munger joined Buffett at Berkshire Hathaway in 1978, where he served as Buffett's second-in-command for decades. "His idea of traveling in style is an air-conditioned bus, a luxury he steps up to only when bargain fares are in effect," Buffett wrote of Munger. "Naming the plane has not been easy," Buffett wrote. And later on, in the same 1989 letter to the company's shareholders, Buffett wrote about a valuable piece of investment advice Munger shared with him.

The most successful people use humility to bounce back quickly, according to Harvard-trained leadership expert Charlene Li. "You don't know everything. And because you don't know everything, you can't be expected to have all the answers," Li, a San Francisco-based executive coach, recently told LinkedIn's "The Path" podcast. "When you can practice humility on a daily basis ... you can be open to a learner's mindset and that is absolutely crucial." "We are raised in school to aim for A's, which means being perfect, getting 100% on tests," she said.

☆ Wharton psychologist on how to reach your potential: People ‘really underestimate the slow learners, the late bloomers’

"Natural talent is overrated," Grant, a bestselling author and psychology professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School, recently told CNBC's "Squawk Box." And I think that leaves us to really underestimate the slow learners, the late bloomers." Those "slow learners" develop such traits by necessity from an earlier age, priming them well for achievement later in life, he added. Late bloomers also tend to be particularly skilled at turning weaknesses into strengths, and if you can master something you're bad at, you're well-equipped to handle most types of challenges, Grant told "Squawk Box." "The feeling that something is uncomfortable is a signal that you're about to learn something new," Grant told the New York Times last month.

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A police officer was killed and another was seriously injured Wednesday night when their cruiser was struck by a car speeding through a red light while fleeing a traffic stop in Connecticut's capital city, authorities said. Another car that had fled a traffic stop by other officers smashed into the passenger's side of the cruiser just west of downtown Hartford.
