Coping with Anxiety and Uncertainty at Work Lees meer
18 May 2020

We often try to push away stress, fear, and anxiety. But success doesn't depend on rejecting these emotions — we can thrive because of them.
This was recorded live on May 14, 2020. To explore these intense emotions and their impact on our jobs and careers, HBR’s Amy Gallo sat down with Morra Aarons-Mele, host of the HBR podcast "The Anxious Achiever" and author of the Big Idea feature "Leading Through Anxiety." They discussed the upsides and downsides of these feelings and how to cope with them at work.

The Art of Persuasion Hasn’t Changed in 2,000 Years

The Art of Persuasion Hasn’t Changed in 2,000 YearsUploaded 08-03-229 Mar 2022---To successfully sell your next idea, try using these five rhetorical devices that Aristotle identified in your next speech or presentation.00:00 More than 2,000 years ago Aristotle outlined a formula on how to become a master of persuasion00:42 Aristotle's five rhetorical devices00:57 Ethos (Character)01:48 Logos (Reason)02:08 Pathos (Emotion()02:50 Metaphor03:27 BrevityMore than 2,000 years ago Aristotle outlined a formula on how to become a master of persuasion in his work Rhetoric. The first device is ethos or “character.” In order for your audience to trust you, start your talk by establishing your credibility. Then, make a logical appeal to reason, or “logos.” Use data, evidence, and facts to support your pitch. The third device, and perhaps the most important, is “pathos,” or emotion. People are moved to action by how a speaker makes them feel. Aristotle believed the best way to transfer emotion from one person to another is through storytelling. The more personal your content is the more your audience will feel connected to you and your idea. Based on the HBR article by Carmine Gallo: The Art of Persuasion Hasn’t Changed in 2,000 Years (https://hbr.org/2019/07/the-art-of-persuasion-hasnt-changed-in-2000-years).

How Apple Is Arranged for Innovation: The Functional Organization

How Apple Is Organized for Innovation: The Functional Organization Lees meer
27 Jan 2021
---
When Steve Jobs arrived back at Apple in 1997, he laid off general managers of all business units and combined disparate functional departments into one functional organization. (Part 1 of 3)
This is part 1 of 3
Part 2--The Leadership Model: https://youtu.be/d5enAGG51PQ
Part 3--Leadership at Scale: https://youtu.be/hczW4Bqf3QkThe adoption of a functional structure may have been unsurprising for a company of Apple’s size at the time. What is surprising—in fact, remarkable—is that Apple retains it today, even though the company is nearly 40 times as large in terms of revenue and far more complex than it was in 1998. Senior vice presidents are in charge of functions, not products. As was the case with Jobs before him, CEO Tim Cook occupies the only position on the organizational chart where the design, engineering, operations, marketing, and retail of any of Apple’s main products meet. In effect, besides the CEO, the company operates with no conventional general managers: people who control an entire process from product development through sales and are judged according to a P&L statement.
Based on the HBR article, “How Apple Is Organized for Innovation" by Joel M. Podolny and Morten T. Hansen: https://hbr.org/2020/11/how-apple-is-organized-for-innovation

The Explainer: Writing Great Business Plans Lees meer
25 Jun 2019

A business plan that asks — and answers — the right questions is a powerful tool.
What’s wrong with most business plans? The answer is relatively straightforward. Most waste too much ink on numbers and devote too little to the information that really matters to intelligent investors.
If you want to speak the language of investors — and also make sure you have asked yourself the right questions before setting out on the most daunting journey of a businessperson’s career — assess the four interdependent factors critical to every new venture: the people; the opportunity; the context; and the risk and reward.

What Is Psychological Safety? Lees meer
7 Nov 2023

It’s a term that’s used a lot but is often misunderstood. Harvard Business School professor Amy Edmondson, who coined the phrase “team psychological safety”, says it’s the shared belief that it’s OK to take risks, express ideas and concerns, speak up with questions, and admit mistakes — and here’s the important part– without fear of negative consequences. And if your team doesn’t have it, that’s going to negatively impact its performance. In this video, you'll learn how to tell whether your team has it, and what to do if it doesn't.

Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi on the High-Stakes Race to Meet Energy Demand without Russian Gas

Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi on the High-Stakes Race to Meet Energy Demand without Russian GasUploaded 13-01-2313 Jan 2023---Claudio Descalzi is CEO of the Italian energy giant Eni. As Russia’s assault on Ukraine roils European energy markets, companies like his are hustling to keep up with demand. Descalzi says the war (along with Covid) exposed how inelastic the demand for energy is: consumers and heavy industry need fuel whether there’s a war (or pandemic) on or not. Getting it to them while simultaneously exploring more sustainable resources is the challenge facing huge suppliers like his. Claudio joined the company in 1981 as an oil and gas field engineer, and over the years has developed a truly global perspective on the business, having served as director of the company's Congo and Nigeria operations, and as Executive Vice President for Africa, Middle East, and China. Descalzi sat down with HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius for our video series “The New World of Work” to discuss:• The decades-long effort to transform an oil and gas company into a clean energy company.• Energy security and competition in a growingly crowded world where more people want better lives.• What he sees ahead as we enter potentially turbulent times for the world market.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.

How to Design a Workspace at Home | Christine vs Work Lees meer
30 Nov 2023

No matter where you work these days—in an office, at home, or wedged in wherever spot you can find—are there ways to design your space for the better?
00:00 WFH is here to stay
01:00 Meet Elyse Ayoung
02:11 Does this serve a purpose?
03:31 Throw out expectations
04:31 Don't shop, shift!
04:57 Office transformation!
05:30 Rethink the future of officesMany of us long to create a personal environment that’s conducive to getting our work done well (and comfortably so). But how should we think about what goes into an “optimal” work space? What are simple yet effective design principles that help us prioritize what needs to change? And how could this impact our workspaces (including home and traditional offices) in the future?
I sought answers from Elyse Ayoung—an Associate Designer at architecture firm Gensler and Co-Founder of the MiD Collective, a professional network for BIPOC Interior Designers in Boston and beyond. If you’re feeling inspired to change up your workspace but unsure where to start, Elyse suggests prioritizing “purposeful” design choices (however you choose to define it), being honest about where and how you do your best work (that “desk job” may not require a desk anymore), and giving yourself permission to test new arrangements (no change needs to be permanent, so why not try it out?).

If you're trying new things and not all of them succeed, that's called experimentation. When you deviate from known practice because of inattention or lack of training, on the other hand, that's probably a mistake.
For this episode of our video series “The New World of Work”, HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius sat down with Harvard Business School professor Amy Edmondson, an expert in psychological safety, to discuss:
+ Good and bad types of failure
+ Dangers of not experimenting enough
+ The tension between paying close attention to individual employees' needs, and those of the team and organizationThis 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.

Blockchain’s impact will be enormous, but it will take decades for it to seep into our economic and social infrastructure.
True blockchain-led transformation of business and government is still many years away. That’s because blockchain is not a “disruptive” technology, which can attack a traditional business model with a lower-cost solution and overtake incumbent firms quickly. Blockchain is a foundational technology: It has the potential to create new foundations for our economic and social systems.
But while the impact will be enormous, it will take decades for blockchain to seep into our economic and social infrastructure. The process of adoption will be gradual and steady, not sudden, as waves of technological and institutional change gain momentum.

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.

How the Geeks Rewrote the Rules of Management Lees meer
15 Sep 2023

The secret to success for many Silicon Valley tech companies isn’t necessarily that they’re ultra-nimble start-ups, or that they’re led by tech-savvy geniuses. In fact, their success often has more to do with a specific type of corporate culture—and it’s a culture that even companies not based on the US West Coast or focused on technology can adopt.
According to Andrew McAfee, a principal research scientist at the MIT Sloan School of Management, business leaders need to think more like geeks, but not the computer-based stereotype you may be familiar with. In his forthcoming book, The Geek Way: The Radical Mindset that Drives Extraordinary Results, McAfee says geeks are nothing more or less than “obsessive mavericks” who are absolutely fixated on finding unconventional solutions to their business’ hard problems. You need them throughout the organization, not just at the top, and you need to entrust them with the power to make real changes.
For this episode of our video series “The New World of Work”, HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius sat down with McAfee to discuss:
• Evolving a company’s culture not by focusing on organizational structure, but on company norms
• Building organizations that can get things right, even when the person at the top of the org chart is wrong
• The delicate balance of human judgment and evidence, data-driven insights.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, 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.

24 Jun 2019

The secret seems to be finding the right balance between creating innovative films and retaining enough continuity to make them all recognizably part of a coherent family.
In just a decade Marvel Studios has redefined the franchise movie. Its 22 films have grossed some $17 billion—more than any other movie franchise in history. At the same time, they average an impressive 84% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes (the average for the 15 top-grossing franchises is 68%) and receive an average of 64 nominations and awards per movie. Avengers: Endgame,released in the spring, has won rave reviews and generated so much demand that online movie ticket retailers had to overhaul their systems to manage the number of requests.
Kevin Feige, the head of Marvel Studios, offered a deceptively simple explanation in Variety: “I’ve always believed in expanding the definition of what a Marvel Studios movie could be. We try to keep audiences coming back in greater numbers by doing the unexpected and not simply following a pattern or a mold or a formula.” The secret seems to be finding the right balance between creating innovative films and retaining enough continuity to make them all recognizably part of a coherent family.

But can technology that leverages conversational insights make a measurable impact on a company’s bottom line?
