Respect for Any Body Size | Women at Work | Podcast
5 november 2026 · 50 min
Have you ever hesitated to take on a particular role or get up in front of other people because you felt self-conscious about your weight? Or worried that others would see you as unprofessional or “not equipped” for leadership positions? Perhaps you’ve made offhand comments about a colleague’s eating habits?Uploaded 02-11-22Chapters:00:00 – Intro06:25 – Seeing Weight Bias as a Problem13:36 – Anti-Fat Bias Runs Deep17:07 – Self-Acceptance in a Larger Body26:04 – How to (Not) Talk About Food and Weight at Work35:53 – Advice for Managers: Addressing Weight Bias at Work41:32 - OutroWeight bias is everywhere, including at work, and yet it’s rarely discussed openly or made part of efforts to create equitable and inclusive workplaces.

Why Cybersecurity Isn’t Only a Tech Problem | HBR IdeaCast | Podcast Lees meer
20 Dec 2022

Thomas Parenty and Jack Domet, cofounders of the cybersecurity firm Archefact Group, say that most organizations are approaching cybersecurity all wrong. Whether they’re running small companies or working in multinational corporations, leaders have to think beyond their IT department and technology systems to instead focus on protecting their businesses’ most important assets from attack. They need to work across functions and geographies to identify key risks, imagine potential threats and adversaries, and develop a plan for combating them. Parenty and Domet are the authors of the HBR article “Sizing up your Cyber Risks,” as well as the HBR Press book, A Leader’s Guide to Cybersecurity. (https://www.amazon.com/Leaders-Guide-Cybersecurity-Boards-Lead/dp/1633697991)

The Explainer: Finding Your Company's Core Competencies Lees meer
2 Jul 2019
---
What does your company do better than anyone else?
In the short run, a company’s competitiveness derives from the price/performance attributes of current products. But in the long run, competitiveness derives from an ability to build, at lower cost and more speedily than competitors, the core competencies that spawn unanticipated products. Core competencies are the collective learning in the organization, especially how to coordinate diverse production skills and integrate multiple streams of technologies.
Unlike physical assets, which deteriorate over time, core competencies are enhanced as they are applied and shared. But competencies still need to be nurtured and protected; knowledge fades if it is not used. Competencies are the glue that binds existing businesses. They are also the engine for new business development.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
At Harvard Business Review, we believe in management. If the world’s organizations and institutions were run more effectively, if our leaders made better decisions, if people worked more productively, we believe that all of us — employees, bosses, customers, our families, and the people our businesses affect — would be better off. So we try to arm our readers with ideas that help them become smarter, more creative, and more courageous in their work. We enlist the foremost experts in a wide range of topics, including career planning, strategy, leadership, work-life balance, negotiations, innovation, and managing teams. Harvard Business Review empowers professionals around the world to lead themselves and their organizations more effectively and to make a positive impact.

The Explainer: The Case for More Muted Meetings

The Explainer: The Case for More Silent Meetings Lees meer
2 Dec 2019
---
Talking meetings have much merit, but can also be subject to a host of problems.
There are approximately 55 million meetings a day in the United States. Although they often have many different purposes and goals, these meetings are typically conducted in the same way, time and time again. Namely, individuals gather together, virtually or face-to-face, to talk about a topic. We often don’t realize it, but talk is actually a choice; simply one of many different meeting styles or communication methods a leader can select. While talking meetings have much merit — when planned well they can be efficient and offer a level of comfort in speaking in person — they can also be subject to a host of problems: one person dominating, others checking out and multitasking, side conversations, straying off course, and pressures to conform to the boss’s ideas.
The good news is that alternative approaches do exist and, depending on your task at hand, can work incredibly well. One such approach embraces silence. This technique may seem odd, but current research supports the benefits of holding a “silent meeting” as one way of better leveraging the ideas, perspectives, and insights of organizational talent. Leaders should add it to their toolbox in order to select the right meeting style for the job at hand. At the very least, trying new approaches will serve to keep meetings fresh, engaging, and interesting.---------------------------------------------------------------------

If not, think about how you might do so the next time you’re in front of an audience, or even just speaking to your boss or a big client. Practice in front of a mirror, then with friends, until they feel natural.Non-verbal communication won’t necessarily make or break you as a leader, but it might help you achieve more successful outcomes.Based on the HBR article by Kasia Wezowski: https://hbr.org/2017/04/6-ways-to-look-more-confident-during-a-presentation.

Chobani Founder Hamdi Ulukaya on the Journey from Abandoned Factory to Yogurt Powerhouse Lees meer
21 Apr 2022

Chobani founder and CEO Hamdi Ulukaya has a tale that practically defines the American Dream.
Ulukaya, a Kurd, was born in eastern Turkey, where his family owned a small dairy farm. He eventually came to the U.S., and in 2005 came across an abandoned yogurt factory for sale in upstate New York. Ulukaya bought it and hired a small team and to make yogurt that was less sugary and less watery than what was generally produced in the U.S.
The product was called Chobani, and it was a hit. Today Chobani is a global player and has more than 20% of the U.S. yogurt market.
HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius sat down with Ulukaya in this episode of our video series “The New World of Work” to talk about:
• How Chobani has managed to stay true to its original values, even as it massively scaled up and competed in a sector where quality often has to compete with profitability.
• What it takes to truly put a company’s people at the center of the corporate mission.
• His and Chobani’s role in supporting refugees, through employment—and other—opportunities worldwide.This interview part of a series called “The New World of Work,” which explores how top-tier executives see the future and how their companies are trying to set themselves up for success. Each week, HBR Editor Adi Ignatius will interview a leader on LinkedIn Live — and then share an inside look at those conversations and solicit questions for future discussions in a newsletter just for HBR subscribers.

6:45 -- Ok, do I really need to pay attention to these?Are booming NFT art and sports-card markets just a passing fad, or the beginning of a major trend? Whether or not these new markets crash, the underlying technology is definitely worth keeping an eye on, says HBR’s senior editor for technology, Thomas Stackpole. Hosted by Ramsey Khabbaz.

As CEO of retail giant Crate & Barrel, Janet Hayes has a unique perspective on how the pandemic disrupted consumers’ behaviors and altered attitudes. Lifestyles changed drastically, and so did customers’ demands for their homes and, increasingly, home offices. Crate & Barrel had to nimbly react to—and, ideally, anticipate—these shifts. Hayes says the company weathered the market’s turbulence by staying focused on what remains consistent: customers’ core expectations of value, quality, inspiration, and purpose.

Is Entrepreneurship Right for Me?
So you’re thinking quitting your full-time job and working for yourself. Or maybe you’ve already decided that the corporate life isn’t for you and you have a passion project that could become a full-fledged business.
What do you need to consider before you walk away from your corporate career? Have you thought about the financial risks, how you’ll find community or mentorship, or what your future would look like with less of a roadmap?
This week on New Here, we follow Jemma Sbeg as she leaves her successful consulting career to pursue her passion project—her now-hit podcast, The Psychology of your 20s.
Host Elainy Mata interviews Jemma on her first day of working for herself—to learn how she made the decision to leave her full-time job and what her hopes and fears are for her new work life.
Then Elainy and Jemma have a second conversation after Jemma’s been working on her own for five months. You’ll learn which of Jemma’s fears were warranted, how she battled loneliness, managed her money, and whether or not she is actually happier working for herself.

Before you got engaged, or had a child, or moved across the country for your partner’s job, did you sit down and ask each other questions like, What makes for a good life? and How much work is too much? Yeah, neither did we. These are the sorts of conversations that researcher Jennifer Petriglieri says lay the foundation for couples, especially working parents, to have a mutually supportive relationship and satisfying, if demanding, careers.Uploaded 09-11-22A woman named Rebecca remembers talking with her husband in depth about their values and goals early on in their relationship. It was a conversation that felt abstract at the time…and never happened again. They now have two young kids, and Rebecca is stepping into a new leadership role. She feels like she’s not getting enough practical and emotional support from her spouse, and isn’t sure how to attain it. So, we asked Jennifer to share her expertise and advice.We give Rebecca (and anyone in a similar situation) a framework for processing the career-family tension she’s feeling, as well as ideas for resolving it.Guest:Jennifer Petriglieri is an associate professor of organizational behavior at INSEAD and the author of Couples That Work: How Dual-Career Couples Can Thrive in Love and Work.Resources:• “How Dual-Career Couples Make It Work,” by Jennifer Petriglieri• “Why Working Couples Need to Talk More About Power,” by Jennifer Petriglieri• “Couples That Work,” by Women at Work• “When We Make All (or Most of) the Money,” by Women at Work• “How to Have a Relationship and a Career,” by HBR IdeaCastSign up for the Women at Work newsletter.Email us: womenatwork@hbr.orgListen to all Women at Work episodes here: [YouTube playlist link]You can also listen to this episode on HBR.org, and wherever you listen to podcasts: - HBR.org (transcript available here): https://hbr.org/podcast/2022/11/when-your-partner-isnt-giving-you-the-support-you-need - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/when-your-partner-isnt… Lees meer

The Explainer: How to Be a Disruptor Lees meer
9 Jul 2019
---
Clay Christensen's landmark theory of disruptive innovation has proved to be a powerful way of thinking about innovation-driven growth.
“Disruption” describes a process whereby a smaller company with fewer resources is able to successfully challenge established incumbent businesses. Specifically, as incumbents focus on improving their products and services for their most demanding (and usually most profitable) customers, they exceed the needs of some segments and ignore the needs of others. Entrants that prove disruptive begin by successfully targeting those overlooked segments, gaining a foothold by delivering more-suitable functionality — frequently at a lower price. Incumbents, chasing higher profitability in more-demanding segments, tend not to respond vigorously. Entrants then move upmarket, delivering the performance that incumbents’ mainstream customers require, while preserving the advantages that drove their early success. When mainstream customers start adopting the entrants’ offerings in volume, disruption has occurred.

The vision for this new, blockchain-based web includes cryptocurrencies, NFTs, DAOs, decentralized finance, and more. It offers a read/write/own version of the web, in which users have a financial stake in and more control over the web communities they belong to. Web3 promises to transform the experience of being online as dramatically as PCs and smartphones did. It is not, however, without risk. Some companies have entered the space only to face a backlash over the environmental impact and financial speculation (and potential for fraud) that comes with Web3 projects. And while blockchain is offered as a solution to privacy, centralization, and financial exclusion concerns, it has created new versions of many of these problems. Companies need to consider both the risks and the benefits before diving in.Script by Tom Stackpole and Kelsey GripenstrawDesign and animation by Alex BelserArt direction by Karen PlayerVoiceover by Christine WilderCo-produced by Scott LaPierre and Gretchen GavettFollow Harvard Business Review:https://hbr.org/https://www.linkedin.com/company/harvard-business-review/https://www.facebook.com/HBR/https://twitter.com/HarvardBizhttps://www.instagram.com/harvard_business_reviewSign up for Newsletters: https://hbr.org/email-newsletters#HarvardBusinessReview #Explainer #Web3Copyright © 2022 Harvard Business School Publishing.

The CEO of Pfizer says his company is working to get a vaccine to the masses as quickly as possible — including those in disadvantaged and vulnerable communities.
This video was recorded live on June 22, 2020. In March, Pfizer's CEO and chairman, Albert Bourla, called on company scientists to come up with a “moonshot”: develop a vaccine within 6 months instead of the more-standard 18-month period. Does science work that way? Can you speed things up just by calling for it all to happen more quickly?

As AI transforms industries, experts argue that some people may be pushed to change occupations entirely. That will require reskilling. The problem is, not a lot of companies have addressed the critical role they can play in helping workers do this. Here are four key insights that can help your company meet the challenges and opportunities of AI reskilling.

What It Means to Be a Conscientious Leader

What It Means to Be a Moral Leader Lees meer
22 Sep 2023

Remember when leaders could sidestep taking a stand on sensitive political or societal issues by saying, “The business of business is business”? That aloof neutrality no longer works, says Dov Seidman, founder and chairman of The HOW Institute for Society. “I think the business of business is society,” he says. “It's community, and how we relate to whatever comes our way and how thoughtfully and principled we are.” A leader standing up for what’s right is the new expectation of employees, customers, and other stakeholders. Not to mention relatives at the Thanksgiving dinner table.
As AI ramps up and challenges humans’ monopoly on intelligence, purely human skills like moral judgment and empathy become even more crucial for leaders. While machines can be taught to do things right, Seidman says, only people can lead others to do the right things.
For this episode of our video series “The New World of Work”, HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius sat down with Seidman, who’s also the author of How: Why How We Do Anything Means Everything, to discuss:
• How to let your principles guide you as a leader
• The importance of taking a pause in order to reflect on, reconnect with, rethink, and reimagine your mission
• Which human traits and abilities will grow in value as AI grows in raw intelligenceThis interview part of a series called “The New World of Work,” which explores how top-tier executives see the future and how their companies are trying to set themselves up for success. Each week, Adi will interview a leader on LinkedIn Live — and then share an inside look at those conversations and solicit questions for future discussions in a newsletter just for HBR subscribers.

The Reality Beneath Imposter Syndrome | Christine vs Work

The Truth Behind Imposter Syndrome | Christine vs Work Lees meer
17 Nov 2023

What if we’ve been going about imposter syndrome all wrong?
Typically, imposter syndrome is framed as something an individual should mentally tackle, but there’s something much larger underneath these personal feelings of insecurity, doubt, and fear. The concept itself (described as “imposter phenomenon”) was coined in a psychology study from 1978. What was that study about, why has imposter syndrome become so popular, and what have we learned since then?
I sought answers from Jodi-Ann Burey, a speaker, writer, and podcaster working in the intersections of race, culture, and health equity. If you have feelings that are commonly attributed to imposter syndrome, Jodi-Ann suggests asking yourself questions to better identify the root cause of these “imposter-y” sensations—whether what you’re feeling is simply a natural human response to acclimating to a new challenge or, more seriously, a indicator that systemic discrimination needs to be addressed.

Twitch CEO on the Future of the Creator Economy - and the Challenge to Keep the Platform Safe

Twitch CEO on the Future of the Creator Economy - and the Challenge to Keep the Platform Safe Lees meer
19 May 2022

Emmett Shear is cofounder and CEO of Twitch, the fast-growing streaming service popular with video gamers, which was purchased eight years ago by Amazon for nearly $1 billion. Emmett is also a part-time partner for the startup accelerator, Y Combinator.
Twitch has been in the news recently: It was the platform used by the alleged shooter of 13 people at a Buffalo grocery store to livestream his actions. The company says the stream was removed less than two minutes after the violence started, but, as Shear explained to HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius, “there's obviously still work to be done” to make livestreaming platforms safer.
Ignatius sat down with Shear in this episode of our video series “The New World of Work” to talk about:
• Tactics and strategies for keeping platforms like Twitch free of racist, hateful, and abusive speech.
• The present and future of the creator economy, which he says promises to be, for some, a more fulfilling alternative to not just the gig economy, but regular full-time employment.
• Monetization, and how it works differently for small creators with 5 followers, and experts with 50,000 followers.
• From his time at Y Combinator, the best pieces of advice he’s developed for young startup entrepreneurs.This interview part of a series called “The New World of Work,” which explores how top-tier executives see the future and how their companies are trying to set themselves up for success.

“Level 5” leadership is about combining fierce resolve with personal humility.
“Level 5” refers to the highest level in a hierarchy of executive capabilities. Leaders at the other four levels in the hierarchy can produce high degrees of success but not enough to elevate companies from mediocrity to sustained excellence. Level 5 leaders blend extreme personal humility with intense professional will.
And while Level 5 leadership is not the only requirement for transforming a good company into a great one — other factors include getting the right people on the bus (and the wrong people off the bus) and creating a culture of discipline — research shows it to be essential. Good-to-great transformations don’t happen without Level 5 leaders at the helm. They just don’t.

How Industry Competition Theory Can Help Address U.S. Politics

How Industry Competition Theory Can Help Fix U.S. Politics Lees meer
26 Oct 2020
---
Unhealthy competition is at the root of political dysfunction. Applying a famous business framework can help identify the best ways to fix it.
Although people tend to think of the American political system as a public institution based on high-minded principles, it’s not. Politics behaves according to the same kinds of incentives and forces that shape competition in any private industry.
Our elections and our legislative systems are drowning in unhealthy competition: The political-industrial complex wins, and the public interest loses. Business, in pursuing its short-term interests, has become a major participant in the politics industry, exacerbating its dysfunction.
We can have healthy competition in politics—results, innovation, and accountability—by redesigning how we vote to connect acting in the public interest with getting reelected. Katherine Gehl's application of Michael Porter’s Five Forces framework illuminates the root causes of political dysfunction and points to the most powerful levers for transformation.
