Dorie Clark: “Strive for simplicity”

We share with you a post published in 'Fast Company' in which you can learn more about Dorie Clark: "Third, strive for simplicity. Remembering to pick up three items from the grocery store is significantly easier than remembering 30 items without the aid of a list. Our brains work the same way. In the field of neuroscience this is called “working memory overload.” Think of what you want people to share about you and then review it for the two to three most important elements. Trim the message down and you’ll have more people sharing it because they can remember it." Read more: https://www.fastcompany.com/90840269/increase-word-of-mouth-business-challenging-economic-times

Dorie Clark: “If you want to grow exponentially, you need marketing”

We share with you a post published in 'Entrepreneur' in which you can learn more about Dorie Clark: "As Dorie mentions "If you're going to have a successful business doing sales all the time becomes a problem. And the reason for that is that sales often is not incredibly scalable. If you want to grow exponentially, rather than just incrementally, you need marketing in order to expose yourself and your business to a new audience." She then provides an approach for you to consider as you're just starting out, and once you begin to grow. "As we're thinking in waves early on, you over-index on sales, but eventually you need to level up your marketing as well, so that you can grow your business for the long term." (...)

Adriana Gascoigne: “We’re fighting a mindset about what a leader looks and sounds like”

We share with you a post published in 'Dr. Pippa's Pen & Podcast' in which you can learn more about Adriana Gascoigne. "Gascoigne is thrilled with the progress that has been made by women and minorities in the workplace over the years. But she feels we have yet to face our greatest challenge. “Diversity, equality and inclusion (DEI) can’t just be an initiative,” she explains. “It has to be an inherent part of what an organization does and part of a leader’s mindset. Our partnership with McKinsey & Co. measured up to 19 percent higher revenues at companies that approach gender parity. But now we’re fighting a mindset, one that’s been cultivated over generations and generations about what a leader looks and sounds like.”" (...)

Philippa Malmgren: “Is it possible that the superpowers are no longer able to hold themselves together?”

We share with you a post published in 'Dr. Pippa's Pen & Podcast' in which you can learn more about Dr. Philippa  Malmgren. “So, what sparks defiance? As ever, inflation always stokes the fire of dissatisfaction. But that’s just salt in the wound. The wound is the loss of belief and the loss of trust. This is an existential moment for both nations in which the key question is whether the citizens trust the leader and the nation to deliver a better future. This breakdown of trust in authority and the establishment has been underway for years. I wrote about this in both The Leadership Lab and The Infinite Leader”. (...)

Richard Gerver: “I think listening is so incredibly important”

We share with you a post published in 'Tes Magazine' in which you can learn more about Richard Gerver. “I think listening is so incredibly important. The problem is when you’re in a hierarchically powerful position, whether a teacher in a classroom, a school leader, a leader of an organisation, or a political system, is that you feel under profound pressure to have the answers to everything. But I think sometimes we don’t realise that actually, our job isn’t to have all the answers but to listen and find solutions from those that do have the answers. That takes the pressure off and opens up the power of collaboration that leads to better outcomes.” (...)

Dambisa Moyo: Why Deglobalization Makes US Inflation Worse

We share with you a post published in 'Project Syndicate' in which you can learn more about Dambisa Moyo. “NEW YORK – It is now widely accepted that deglobalization – the retrenchment of global trade, unwinding of capital flows, new barriers to migration, and declining influence of multilateral institutions – is well underway. But policymakers have yet to acknowledge its contribution to global inflation. To rein in surging price growth, the Federal Reserve and other central banks must adjust to the challenges of a rapidly deglobalizing world.” (...)

Michael E. Porter: Five Forces Model

We share with you a post published in 'Investopedia' in which you can learn more about Michael E. Porter. “The last of the Five Forces focuses on substitutes. Substitute goods or services that can be used in place of a company's products or services pose a threat. Companies that produce goods or services for which there are no close substitutes will have more power to increase prices and lock in favorable terms. When close substitutes are available, customers will have the option to forgo buying a company's product, and a company's power can be weakened. Understanding Porter's Five Forces and how they apply to an industry, can enable a company to adjust its business strategy to better use its resources to generate higher earnings for its investors.” (...)

Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez: The Rise of the Chief Project Officer

We share with you a post published in 'Harvard Business Review' in which you can learn more about Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez. “The chief project officer goes far beyond the direct sponsorship of individual projects.

Javier Solana: Between democracies and autocracies

We share with you a post published in 'Project Syndicate' in which you can learn more about Javier Solana: “But the economy is just the beginning. The war in Ukraine is bolstering the narrative that an inescapable ideological struggle between democracies and autocracies has taken hold. If this perception prevails, the world will inevitably split into geopolitical blocs. This would be a tragedy for the countries of the Global South, in particular. These countries would face a fateful choice between two mutually exclusive geopolitical blocs. But regardless of which bloc they chose, global problems would still prove to be unmanageable – let alone solvable – without the other bloc.” (...)
