Garry Kasparov: “The head of the Russian Federation is losing globally”

We share with you a post published in 'World Today News' in which you can learn more about Garry Kasparov: “One of them is that Putin has completely ceased to reckon with the opinion of the West. Perhaps the latest statements by Americans and Europeans that Ukraine will finally receive the latest air defense defenses will somehow affect Putin’s behavior. Because, unfortunately, before Since several months, we have seen the West’s hesitation in increasing the supply of weapons that Ukraine needs so much to survive and win this war. According to Putin, this was a manifestation of the weakness of the West. And how does a dictator react to weakness? attacks even more aggressively,” Kasparov explained his thought”. (...)

Chris Gardner: Is success a stroke of luck?

We share with you a post published in 'CNBC' in which you can learn more about Chris Gardner: “This unparalleled effort eventually paid off. Gardner was able to pass his Series 7 Exam and moved on to proper employment at the firm, which officially got him off the streets for good. Aside from inspiring a hit movie, Gardner eventually started and sold his own firm, Gardner Rich & Co, and has since become a prolific philanthropist. It’s a success story almost too unbelievable to be true, but that’s exactly what makes it so compelling. For some people, success is a lucky break. For Gardner, luck may have been on his side at times, but more than anything, his success is a result of sheer defiance of the odds. As he puts it, “you can be down and out, but only as down as you let yourself be".” Not a bad lesson to learn.” (...)

Daniel Lamarre: “Creativity is the source of innovation”

We share with you a post published in 'Factry' in which you can learn more about Daniel Lamarre: “Without creativity, no company or organization can survive. In finance, it is at the heart of relationships with employees, investors and bankers. Even more traditional industries such as law and accounting firms need to innovate to engage their troops and retain their clients. I’m a firm believer that if you don’t innovate, you’re going to get left behind. Kodak disappeared from the map because they denied that digital would eventually take over the entire market. It was a terrible denial, and we know the result today. At Cirque du Soleil, my fear was that someone would come up to me one day and say: “Ah, Cirque du Soleil was very good in the 2000s… But now, this company is much better…”” (...)

Tal Ben Shahar: four mindsets or lifestyles to increase and maintain overall happyness

We share with you a post published in 'DrTartt' in which you can learn more about Tal Ben Shahar:   Harvard professor, Dr. Tal Ben Shahar (author of Happier), he discusses four mindsets or lifestyles for increasing and maintain overall happiness. Nihilism- This describes a state where you are just existing. You don't enjoy what you are doing right now and it has no ability to make you happier in the future. It is the worse state to be in and leads to depression and despair. Hedonism- You are enjoying life right now but it has no ability to make you happier in the future. A good example is spending a lot of money. It feels good right now but it will make you unhappy in the future when the bill comes. So, you are exchanging future happiness for right now.   Read more: https://www.drtartt.com/single-post/how-to-be-happier-right-now-how-to-thrive-even-when-the-world-is-not

Adriana Gascoigne: “Silicon Valley’s diversity problem holds tech back”

We share with you a post published in Los Angeles Times in which you can learn more about Adriana Gascoigne: "This is an industrywide problem: Among Silicon Valley’s largest companies, the percentage of Hispanic/Latinx employees working in technology positions is still absurdly low. Apple, the largest tech company, reports that 8% of its U.S. tech workforce identified as Hispanic/Latinx in 2020. At Microsoft, that number is 7%. Google has more detailed data, but it’s depressing: Just 1.8% of its global tech workforce identifies as female and Hispanic/Latinx. In contrast, Hispanic/Latinx people compose 19% of the overall U.S. population and, crucially, 51% of America’s population growth between 2010 and 2020." (...)

Martin Lindstrom: “How your culture needs to change for hybrid work to work”

We share with you a post published in LinkedIn in which you can learn more about Martin Lindstrom: "As organizations scramble to figure out the ideal future model, here are three things to consider: 1. Mirror your organization with its digital footprint. Every organization suffers from bureaucracy. That’s not news to anyone. But what’s less well known is the direct correlation between bureaucracy and an organization’s ability to thrive in a virtual business environment. Researchers have observed that the flatter the hierarchy, the more successful virtual work – for the simple reason that the flatter hierarchy keeps workers closer to the hub of decision making. Going back to work doesn’t mean copy-pasting past structures. Instead, it means seizing the opportunity to run your own ‘hybrid due diligence’, remove reporting layers and ambiguities, and employ new talent in a virtual world." (...)

Seth Godin: “Generation C are up for leading the change”

We share with you a post published in ‘Shet’s Blog’ in which you can learn more about Seth Godin: “The combination of years of school spent at home, in a mask, combined with the significant revolution (economic, political and social) that our industrialism has led us to means that this generation will be different than the ones before. Every decision and investment and interaction is going to be filtered through the lens of carbon and remediation and resilience. And yet, if we combine this with the c of connection, of a cohort of people who are finding solace and possibility in community, there’s a chance for all of us. It will take compassion as well. Generation C didn’t ask for any of this, but I’m hopeful that they’re up for leading the change.” (...) Read more: https://seths.blog/2022/04/generation-c/

Robin Sharma: “It’s about living with more authenticity”

We share with you a post published in ‘CBC’ in which you can learn more about Robin Sharma:  "It's about living with more authenticity, being more creative and productive in a world where a lot of people are addicted to distraction. It's about being a little braver, being a little kinder and getting that spark back like when we were in school and believed the world was ours.   What inspired you to write this book?   I've been teaching personal optimization, leadership and productivity for a quarter of a century. But while on a trip to South Africa five years ago, I visited Nelson Mandela's prison cell. My life changed in that moment.   It had no bed, and he spent a total of 27 years of confinement in that cell. And yet, rather than emerging bitter and broken and angry, he emerged as Nelson Mandela. (...)"

Daniel Lamarre: How do you lead a company through the worst of times?

    We share with you a post published in ‘Fast Company’ in which you can learn more about Daniel Lamarre   "Fast Company: What was the biggest business lesson that you took away from having to navigate a company during a crisis? Daniel Lamarre: The big lesson I learned was the importance of staying in communication with our cast and crew. Because in theory, for many, many months, they were no longer our employees. And we might have decided to say, you know, they’re no longer our employees, let’s forget about them. But we did the entire opposite . . . We were communicating with them on a regular basis. And we were focusing on being ready and on standby for when the crisis ended. FC: I wonder how you dealt with balancing the needs of the performers against the needs of the people who actually had to continue working—and were probably working like two or three times the amount. Did you have to figure out ways to manage their workplace burnout?
