How AI Is Changing Strategy—and 4 Skills Leaders Need Next
25 oktober 2026 · 39 min
AI is moving beyond productivity gains—and forcing leaders to rethink how their businesses actually work. In this episode of HBR IdeaCast, Wharton professor and AI expert Ethan Mollick explains why leaders need to move beyond automating existing tasks and start redesigning organizations around what AI makes possible. He discusses how AI agents are changing the role of managers, where humans can create competitive advantage when everyone has access to the same AI models, and why companies need to experiment rather than wait for someone else to figure out the future. He also shares four capabilities leaders should cultivate in an AI-driven world: deep knowledge, wide knowledge, taste, and agency.Uploaded 09-10-26Books, tools, and more: store.hbr.orgFollow us: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 #YourCareer #Career #Job #Work #Business #Harvard #HarvardBusinessSchool Copyright © 2026 Harvard Business School Publishing.

First, realize there’s a difference between acting tough and actually being mentally strong.
Developing mental strength takes practice, and involves overcoming our natural anxieties so we can handle difficult situations. Amy Morin, author of “13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do”, says it’s not about making sure you never fail, but telling yourself that you are strong enough to deal with failure when it inevitably happens.

Tsedal Neeley on Why We Need to Think of the Office as a Tool, with Very Specific UsesUploaded 14-01-2214 Jan 2022---HBS professor Tsedal Neeley specializes in how companies can scale, go global, and achieve digital transformation. She thinks the future of work is not going to be a choice between in-person, remote, or hybrid. You need to “be fabulous in all of them and learn how to connect with people and work well with people” in order to achieve your goals, she says.She is the author of "Remote Work Revolution: Succeeding from Anywhere" (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08BLLQDZG/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1), and is co-author of the forthcoming "The Digital Mindset: What It Really Takes to Thrive in the Age of Data, Algorithms, and AI" (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B099KQLCWY/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1). 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.

Genpact CEO Tiger Tyagarajan: Digital Transformation Isn’t About Technology, It’s About People
25 oktober 2026 · 44 min
Genpact CEO Tiger Tyagarajan: Digital Transformation Isn’t About Technology, It’s About PeopleUploaded 26-01-2326 Jan 2023---Tiger Tyagarajan is CEO of Genpact, a global firm that advises clients on digital transformation. Tyagarajan helped transform a division of General Electric (GE Capital International Services) into Genpact, a company that now has more than 100,000 employees and annual revenue of $4 billion. He says there’s an important difference between simply “digitizing” your company (by, for example, automating tasks) and truly transforming it digitally, which goes beyond technology to develop the people and processes that make up a firm’s culture. For this episode of our video series “The New World of Work”, Tyagarajan sat down with HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius to discuss: • The promise, and limits, of emerging AI technologies like chatGPT, and how they could augment what employees do without necessarily replacing them.• The long-term promise, but short-term dangers, of the metaverse. • Surprising leadership and team-dynamics insights from cricket. “If there's a game that teaches you grit, it's cricket,” says Tyagarajan, who is passionate about the sport.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.

Former Jamba Juice CEO James D. White: Empathy Is a Talent That Can Be Taught

Former Jamba Juice CEO James D. White: Empathy Is a Skill That Can Be Taught Lees meer
1 Dec 2022
---
James D. White considers himself “an unlikely public company CEO.” His first job out of college was handling sales for Coca-Cola’s Minute Maid division in some of Missouri’s “sundown towns,” where potential customers would imply that, as a Black man, it would be “unhealthy” for him to stick around past sunset. Nevertheless, White rose through the ranks at Coca-Cola and would go on to hold executive positions at Safeway, Gillette, and Nestlé Purina before becoming CEO, chair, and president of Jamba Juice from 2008 to 2016, where he led an impressive effort to reinvent the brand. He has more than 20 years of experience on boards, including The Honest Company, where he serves as chair. Recently, he’s begun sharing his personal journey, and works with today’s leaders to ensure that an anti-racist world becomes the new normal.
White is the co-author with his daughter Krista of "Anti-Racist Leadership: How to Transform Corporate Culture in a Race-Conscious World" (https://www.amazon.com/Anti-Racist-Leadership-Transform-Corporate-Race-Conscious/dp/1647821975). Tackling systemic racism, White says, requires business leaders to treat it like any serious company goal: it's baked into the strategy, and gets worked on daily, weekly, and monthly. “This is work that must be measured,” he says.

How to Conquer Nonstop Notifications at Work | Christine vs Work
25 oktober 2026 · 15 min
Beep! Bzzzt. That incessant knockbrush! Work message notifications run nonstop all day, every day, and there doesn’t seem to be signs of stopping. It’s exhausting.Uploaded 02-11-23In today’s global, remote, WiFi-powered workspaces, the majority of async communication is conducted through email, direct message, or system notifications. Responding to this bottomless stream of requests can be time-consuming, not to mention stressful and mentally taxing. I needed some advice. How do I avoid getting burned out by work messages? What are some things I can do to set boundaries? And how do I create a healthier relationship with my inbox? I sought answers from Daniel Sieberg—Director of Innovation Marketing at Moody's Corporation, Co-Founder of Good Trust, and author of The Digital Diet. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by work notifications, Daniel suggests setting communication boundaries with your team clearly and early, reframing the immediate urge to respond, and digging into your notification features and settings to better manage incoming pings. I also include some of my favorite tips and techniques for tackling work messages—let me know what’s worked for you!This video was originally published on HBR's Ascend YouTube Channel in September 2022.00:00 Has this ever happened to you?01:24 Meet Daniel Sieberg02:25 Rethink urgency03:17 Pause those pings04:05 Set realistic boundaries early05:25 Make OOO expectations07:03 Recalibrate pace08:55 My personal toolsLearn more about Daniel Sieberg’s work: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielsieberg/ https://mygoodtrust.com/ Produced by Elena Lake, Andy Robinson, Christine LiuVideo and Editing by Elena LakeAnimation and Design by Alex Belser and Karen PlayerSubscribe to our newsletter:https://hbr.org/email-newsletters?movetile_hbpascendnl&hideIntromercial=true#boundaries #worklife #email Learn more about your ad choices.

On election day in the U.S. we talked with Harvard Business School's Frances X. Frei to discuss how we can best navigate the emotional and personal challenges of this moment.
In 2017, Frei helped Uber's leaders rebuild trust with each other and the public. The co-author of "Unleashed: The Unapologetic Leader’s Guide to Empowering Everyone Around You," Frei researches how leaders can design their strategy, operations, and culture for organizations and individuals to thrive. She discusses with us: how to compartmentalize politics and work; a playbook for working with colleagues on opposite ends of the political spectrum; and the powers of inclusion and resilience in pushing forward.

Why Great Teams Don't Need to Like Each Other
24 oktober 2026 · 38 min
Do great teams need to like each other to succeed? Organizational psychologist Adam Grant says no. What matters more is alignment around a shared purpose—and a willingness to challenge one another.Uploaded 21-10-26In this episode of HBR IdeaCast, Grant joins host Adi Ignatius to discuss his new book, Vibe, and what leaders can do to build stronger teams, improve workplace culture, and foster meaningful connections. He explains why task cohesion matters more than social bonding, how to encourage productive disagreement, and why hiring for cultural fit can leave organizations vulnerable to groupthink. Grant also shares practical advice on onboarding new employees, giving and receiving candid feedback, and creating a culture where people feel safe speaking up. Plus, he explains why AI companions can’t replace the messy, sometimes uncomfortable interactions that make human relationships—and teams—stronger.Listen to the HBR IdeaCast for more conversations with leading thinkers on strategy, leadership, and managing organizations.Books, tools, and more: store.hbr.orgFollow us: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 #YourCareer #Career #Job #Work #Business #Harvard #HarvardBusinessSchool Copyright © 2026 Harvard Business School Publishing.

How to Follow Up After a Job Interview Lees meer

You got your foot in the door. You nailed the interview. Now what?
Waiting to hear back from a company you’ve interviewed with is the worst. The anticipation, the worry, the dead silence — you can’t help but think that you did something wrong. Should you have sent a hand-written note to your interviewers? Why did you answer that question like that? Is it okay to follow up again? It can be challenging to get through this period of uncertainty, but there are things you can do to pass the time and even boost your chances of getting the job (especially if it’s a close race between you and another candidate). Ascend editor Kelsey Alpaio asked Yih-hsien Shen, the Associate Director and Director for JD Advising at the Harvard Law School, for her advice. She shares some tips on exactly what to do after a job interview, from sending an impactful thank you note to following up with a gentle nudge.

What if the company you worked for couldn't make decisions without your input?
In 2021, the workers at Pavement Coffeehouse in Boston found themselves wondering how they could have a bigger say in their working conditions. Not long after, they became the first unionized coffee shop in Massachusetts.
Emma Delaney, a former supervisor at Pavement and now a full-time organizer at NEJB Unite Here, was one of the many employees that led the union's organization efforts. She shared with us what it was like to start a union at Pavement, what it really means to "organize" a workplace, and what you may be putting at risk when you do.

Common Digital Miscommunications — and How to Avoid Them Lees meer
17 Apr 2020

It’s both difficult and crucial to hit the right tone.
As Covid-19 spreads across the world, more and more of us are starting to work from home. In light of this global shift (and all of our heightened stress levels), it’s crucial to take steps to avoid miscommunication when working as part of a virtual team.
Researchers who spent the last four years studying the science of emotions and their intersection with our lives at work share how to best communicate in the digital age. How do you avoid sending a passive aggressive Slack (“let’s chat.”) or email (“just bumping this up in your inbox!”)? How do you hit the right tone over text? Did you go too far by adding that exclamation point?
Based on the following HBR article:

Applying Porter’s Five Forces to Fix U.S. Politics | HBR IdeaCast

Applying Porter’s Five Forces to Fix U.S. Politics | HBR IdeaCastUploaded 01-02-232 Feb 2023---Katherine Gehl, a former CEO and the founder of the Institute for Political Innovation, and Michael Porter, a professor at Harvard Business School, apply his Five Forces framework to explain why U.S. politics are dysfunctional. They argue that the Republican and Democratic parties make up an industry duopoly with high barriers to entry and low consumer power, and that the resulting lack of competition incentivizes these two dominant players to avoid compromises with majority support. Gehl and Porter provide specific innovations on how to enhance competition and better serve the public, including nonpartisan primary elections and ranked-choice voting. Gehl and Porter are coauthors of the new book The Politics Industry: How Political Innovation Can Break Partisan Gridlock and Save Our Democracy and the HBR article “Fixing U.S. Politics.” This episode originally aired on HBR IdeaCast on June 23, 2020.Listen to more HBR IdeaCast episodes here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzAU8TPKsJuaxff5Cp0P2DKE_tFyaWOOaYou can also listen to this episode on HBR.org, and wherever you listen to podcasts: - HBR.org (transcript available here): https://hbr.org/podcast/2020/06/applying-porters-five-forces-to-fix-u-s-politics - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/applying-porters-five-forces-to-fix-u-s-politics/id152022135?i=1000479254443 - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5L9hmD68fRT92GSeXCPzHj?si=0484f40ff097400c - Stitcher: https://listen.stitcher.com/yvap/?af_dp=stitcher://episode/72136571&af_web_dp=https://www.stitcher.com/episode/72136571&deep_link_value=stitcher://episode/72136571 - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cDovL2ZlZWRzLmhhcnZhcmRidXNpbmVzcy5vcmcvaGFydmFyZGJ1c2luZXNzL2lkZWFjYXN0/episode/dGFnOmF1ZGlvLmhici5vcmcsMjAwNi0wNS0wODppZGVhY2FzdC4wNzQ2?sa=X&ved=0CAIQuIEEahcKEwjQuv3W4vD8AhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQLA Series Description: A weekly p… Lees meer

Many of those working from home during quarantine are now being asked to return to the office. But how do you talk to your manager if you don’t want to go back in?
The pandemic forced physical coworking spaces to temporarily shutter, and for many employees the transition from working in an office to working from home was abrupt. However, many of us have adapted to working from home—and what may have seemed unfamiliar at first now feels more routine. And until a Covid-19 vaccine is widely available, office re-entry carries both measured and unknown risks.
Karen Mattison, a flexible working consultant and co-founder of Timewise, offers advice on how to enter a negotiation with your manager for an alternative working arrangement during this crisis.
Tips for negotiating flexible work:
1. See things from your manager’s perspective. They’re most likely under a lot of stress during this time, so your goal is to make this difficult transition smoother for them as well as for yourself.
2. Take the time to practice. Role-play with a friend or someone in your network who’s a manager. You can even record your sessions so you can replay them later and workshop what you could have said differently during the scenarios.
3. Avoid going into the negotiation with an apology, a wishlist of your needs, or all the reasons why you need a different work arrangement. These approaches instantly put you in a “down position” and weakens your leverage. Instead, go into the conversation with a proposed solution and explain how it’s beneficial to your manager and to your company.
4. Know before going into the negotiation where you are willing to compromise and where your dealbreakers lie.
5. Trust is paramount. Success lies in the strength of your core relationship with your manager. Use it to your advantage.Learn more about Karen Mattison: https://timewis…
