What is Stakeholder Capitalism? Here's a Definition, and 4 Ways to Make It a Reality 17 May 2021 --- To solve big, global problems, companies must rethink capitalism and how they collaborate, argues Mariana Mazzucato, professor in the economics of innovation and public value at University College London. 00:00 Capitalism lurches from crisis to crisis 00:35 What's the difference between shareholder and stakeholder capitalism? 01:24 Walk the talk, step 1: see things differently 02:30 Walk the talk, step 2: do things differently 03:29 Walk the talk, step 3: collaborate differently 05:04 Walk the talk, step 4: distribute wealth differently Mazzucato, author of "Mission Economy: A Moonshot Guide to Changing Capitalism" (https://marianamazzucato.com/books/mission-economy), argues that a traditional shareholder-centric approach offers only Band-Aids. It doesn’t allow for the kind of bold thinking we need to solve big problems. “If we keep just fixing our way out of each crisis,” she notes, “we will, by definition, be too little too late.” --------------------------------------------------------------------- At Harvard Business Review, we believe in management.

How to Lead and Reskill in the Age of AI 25 Aug 2023 --- How will AI affect businesses and employees? It’s the million-dollar question, and according to Harvard Business School’s Raffaella Sadun, the answer will depend on how well an organization connects the new technologies to both a broad corporate vision and individual employee growth. One without the other is a recipe for job elimination and fewer new opportunities for all. Luckily, she points out, we are early in our AI journey, and nothing is predetermined. Smart leaders don’t need to understand every technicality of AI. But they do need to identify the best use cases for their specific business and communicate a clear strategy for reskilling their teams. For this episode of our video series “The New World of Work”, HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius sat down with Sadun, who wrote the HBR article, “Reskilling in the Age of AI” (https://hbr.org/2023/09/reskilling-in-the-age-of-ai), to discuss: • How leaders should use GenAI to augment their own decision making, without entrusting it to make the actual decisions. • Even in the age of AI, the top management skills will be a mixture of technical (“hard”) and social (“soft”) skills. Those who excel will comprehend their organization’s complexity while communicating a clear vision to all employees. • Handling change management when everyone is uncertain about the future and regular employees are especially fearful. 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.

Fighting Workaholism: “You’re More Than a Success Machine” 12 Sep 2024 --- If you think you might be a workaholic, the underlying issue may be something more insidious: an addiction to success. This is what social scientist Arthur C. Brooks argues, explaining how this addiction develops and why it can be so damaging, to both ourselves and our relationships. He emphasizes that we are not “success machines,” and he advocates for both spirituality and making strong connections with others as antidotes to this problem.

The Surprising Problems with Pursuing Your Passion 23 Jan 2023 --- Insisting on doing work you love can have downsides. Finding a job aligned with your passion might take months or years, sacrificing economic stability. What’s more, investing so much of our sense of identity in paid employment incurs an existential risk to our sense of self-worth, should layoffs or other business changes occur. The key is to be deliberate about how large of a role work should have in your life, says Erin Cech, author or “The Trouble With Passion: How Searching for Fulfillment at Work Fosters Inequality” (https://www.amazon.com/Trouble-Passion-Searching-Fulfillment-Inequality/dp/0520303229). More on this topic: https://hbr.org/2022/10/striking-a-balance-between-your-passion-and-your-paycheck More on Erin Cech: https://lsa.umich.edu/soc/people/faculty/erin-cech.html 00:00 Pursuing your passion seems like a no brainer, but it can be based on false assumptions. 00:31 One of those false assumptions is that the labor market is meritocratic and fair. It ain’t. 02:11 For example, let’s look at two aspiring programmers from very different backgrounds. 03:25 Employers love passion, but maybe not for the reasons you think. 04:40 Passion won’t insulate you from the stresses of the modern world of work. 06:30 Alright, what’s a healthier way to orient yourself towards work, then?

What to Do If You're Undervalued at Work | Christine vs Work 10 Nov 2023 --- You work hard, you do your job well, but no one seems to notice or give you credit. Here’s what to do. Whether you’re looking for a raise, better feedback from your manager, or greater visibility within your company, what can you do to be recognized? It can feel especially challenging if you’re more junior than your colleagues, your ideas are routinely dismissed or mistakenly credited to others, or your direct contributions aren’t easy to show off. Despite your best efforts, what can you do to get the recognition you deserve? I sought answers from Andréa Long—head of Talent Engagement at Upstart, serial entrepreneur, consultant, and workshop facilitator. If you’re feeling undervalued at work, Andréa suggests clarifying how you’d like your contributions to be recognized, having ongoing constructive conversations with your manager, applying tactics to gain visibility and credibility, and being honest when you’ve exhausted your options and it’s time to move on to another job opportunity.

How Footwear Startup Allbirds is Decarbonizing Fashion | Cold Call 23 Aug 2023 --- In 2021, the footwear startup Allbirds was extending its product range into apparel and expanding beyond its online store to open more retail stores around the world. It was also freely sharing its know-how and material innovations with its competitors to try to scale its efforts to decarbonize fashion, by substituting natural materials for conventional petroleum-based materials and leather. But the company also had to find ways to remain differentiated, based on design and comfort. Harvard Business School professor Mike Toffel and Allbirds co-founder and co-CEO Joey Zwillinger discuss the growing environmental impact of the fashion industry and how the company managed the tension between advancing its environmental mission and staying ahead of competitors in the case, Allbirds: Decarbonizing Fashion.

How to be Less Lonely at Work | Christine vs. Work 20 Apr 2021 --- 𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙘𝙧𝙞𝙗𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝘼𝙨𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙤𝙙𝙖𝙮! ✨ https://www.youtube.com/c/HBRAscend ✨ Loneliness at work is a major predictor of burnout. But how do you turn co-workers into genuine friends? What do work friendships look like? And how do they differ from the “normal” friendships you make outside of work?

Eurasia Group’s Ian Bremmer: Biggest Threat to World Is Rogue Actors – From Putin to Musk 19 Jan 2023 --- When we think about people with incredible control over their institutions and no checks and balances, we often think of classic rogue actors like Russia’s Vladimir Putin. But Ian Bremmer, founder and president of global risk research consultancy Eurasia Group, would also include business leaders like Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk. They’re not dictators of countries, but they do control, truly control, immensely powerful global platforms that operate with some level of sovereignty outside the power purview of governments. “And I think that the disruptive implications of that for good and for bad are also unprecedented.” 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.

The Case Against Letting Employees Pick WFH Days 13 Sep 2021 --- While some managers may be inclined to let employees choose their own schedule, Stanford economist Nicholas Bloom strongly recommends against this for two very important reasons. 00:00 I used to say, "Let employees pick their WFH days." Not any more. 00:33 The first problem: “Mixed mode” leads to anxiety and exclusion 01:21 Problem two: Disparities create long-term diversity problems 02:35 That leaves us with two options: team-based or centralized choice 02:52 Pros and cons of team-based choice 03:48 Employees must WFH on WFH days to avoid “the great unraveling” 04:09 Yes, my original article on this topic made lots of people upset! 04:50 Let’s do the reverse of “move fast and break things” First is the challenge in managing a hybrid team, which can generate an office in-group and a home out-group. The second concern is the risk to diversity. Current surveys show that younger women with children at home are most likely to want to work from home permanently. Previous research found that WFH employees had a 50% lower rate of promotion after 21 months compared to their office colleagues. The best solution is for managers to decide which days their team should WFH and which days everyone should be in the office. Read more: https://hbr.org/2021/05/dont-let-employees-pick-their-wfh-days Bloom and his research partners spoke to hundreds of managers across different industries, from tiny companies to massive multinationals like Google, Citi, and HSBC.

Think Twice Before Updating Your Brand 12 Oct 2022 --- Brands are constantly changing in order to “stay fresh”, but that’s a mistake. Customers stay loyal through habit, not because you've forced something new and unfamiliar on them. Roger Martin, former dean of the Rotman School of Management at the University of Toronto and one of the world’s leading thinkers on strategy, says brands shouldn’t be so quick to throw away their cumulative advantage. 00:00 Customer loyalty–their consciously choosing your brand–is only half the story. 01:00 What is cumulative advantage, and why is it important? 02:14 Just how fragile is this cumulative advantage? 02:45 Example: Tide laundry detergent forfeits its cumulative advantage. 04:54 Instagram redesigns a familiar icon. Why? 06:03 So, should brands never do anything new?

Why People Resist Retirement 6 Sep 2024 --- Research suggests making the decision to retire means grappling with three psychological issues. 1) First, identity issues can loom large for any deeply engaged professional. Even a small step away from a career can make a person wonder who they are without it. 2) Second, many older professionals resist leaving meaningful work. 3) Finally, the third is the dread of losing the strong relationships that accumulate over the course of a long, successful career. HBS Professor Teresa M. Amabile offers advice for dealing with each of these. Read the full article: https://s.hbr.org/3XB0Eaf Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

How to Throw a Virtual Work Party That Doesn’t Stink | Christine vs. Work 15 Dec 2020 --- 𝙎𝙪𝙗𝙨𝙘𝙧𝙞𝙗𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝘼𝙨𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙤𝙙𝙖𝙮! ✨ https://www.youtube.com/c/HBRAscend ✨ Is there a way to make a virtual social event at work not stink? With so many offices working remotely this year, no doubt you’ve been invited to a virtual happy hour, birthday celebration, or event that in the end just felt like another meeting disguised as a social event. Innovation Editor Christine Liu was desperate to find out if there is a secret formula to throwing a virtual event that wouldn’t feel like the dreaded “mandatory fun.” Tasked with hosting the HBR.org holiday party, Christine spoke with Bryan Rafanelli, founder and Chief Creative Officer of Rafanelli Events, who specializes in high-end events like weddings and fundraisers, or any other social gathering in need of creative direction and planning. He’s not new to virtual parties, but this year he pivoted his long list of projects to virtual. The key to virtual party planning? Understand what makes parties (in general) work well. Bryan’s tips include: Truly believe the party will be a hit! Create buzz and hype among the who’s who on the guestlist Keep the event short (no more than 30 minutes) Assign a host or emcee to keep the party moving and on schedule Designate a way for guests to actively participate Throw in elements of surprise and delight Learn more about Bryan Rafanelli: https://www.rafanellievents.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- We’d love to hear from you!

China’s New Innovation Advantage 13 Apr 2021 --- China is achieving a new level of global competitiveness, thanks to its hyper-adaptive population, says Zak Dychtwald, author of "Young China" and founder of Young China Group. 0:00: The future of the Chinese economy is in innovation 0:32: What’s behind China’s new innovation advantage? 1:05: We shouldn’t be so focused on the innovators 1:37: Why do people in China adopt new technologies so readily? 2:05: China is an outlier in a very important way 3:38: What’s so powerful about having all these early adopters? 5:07: What can companies in other countries learn from China? To understand what’s powering the global rise of Chinese companies, we need to recognize that China now has at its disposal a resource that no other country has. That is: a vast population that has lived through unprecedented amounts of change and, consequently, has developed an astonishing propensity for adopting and adapting to innovations, at a speed and scale that is unmatched elsewhere on earth. It’s that aspect of China’s innovation ecosystem—its hundreds of millions of hyper-adoptive and hyper-adaptive consumers—that makes China so globally competitive today. In the end, innovations must be judged by people’s willingness to use them. And on that front China has no peer.

Why Some Companies Thrived During the Pandemic | HBR IdeaCast | Podcast 19 Jan 2023 --- Keith Ferrazzi, founder of the consulting firm Ferrazzi Greenlight, led a survey of more than 2,000 executives to study how they reengineered operations during the pandemic. The research identified a kind of extreme adaptability at the team and organizational levels that helped some companies come out on top. Ferrazzi argues that after months of ruthlessly adapting, leaders should continue on a path of resilience and agility to stay competitive in the post-Covid-19 world. And he offers concrete steps to take. Ferrazzi is a coauthor of the new book Competing in the New World of Work: How Radical Adaptability Separates the Best from the Rest (https://www.amazon.com/Competing-New-World-Work-Adaptability/dp/1647821959) This episode originally aired on HBR IdeaCast on February 2, 2022.

When Your Job Isn't Your Dream Job 3 Sep 2024 --- “Dream jobs” are often idealized, but in reality, finding a job that aligns with your purpose, values, and goals is incredibly difficult. This is especially true during times of uncertainty or crisis — when our priorities inevitably shift. Even so, many of us can be hard on ourselves or get demotivated searching for the perfect role. In these moments, it’s important to remember that we first need to meet our basic needs before we can gain the energy and drive we need to reach our higher-level goals. Accepting your current circumstances and focusing on “right now” doesn’t make you a failure. The first step towards obtaining what you want in the future is taking care of yourself in the present.

Some have regrets about paths not taken or serious professional missteps; others feel a sense of boredom or futility in their ongoing streams of work.

Jim Fielding, Ex-Head of Disney Stores, on the Struggles of Making It as a Queer Executive 18 Aug 2023 --- What does it feel like to live inauthentically at work? For his first professional job in the 1980s, in the fashion industry, Jim Fielding led what he calls a “double life.” With close friends and confidants, he was open about his relationship with another man. But at work, when discussing his partner he’d switch his pronouns and change stories to conform to expectations at the time. The inauthenticity created emotional, physical, and mental problems. “I was having migraines,” Fielding says today. “I was having stomach problems. I was way too young to be feeling that amount of stress.” Eventually, he moved to a company where he felt comfortable openly being himself, and from there he’s had a long, illustrious career as an entertainment industry executive, including stints as Global Head for Consumer Products and Retail Development at Dreamworks Animation and president of Disney Stores Worldwide. For this episode of our video series “The New World of Work”, HBR editor in chief Adi Ignatius sat down with Fielding, whose book All Pride, No Ego: A Queer Executive's Journey to Living and Leading Authentically has just been published, to discuss: • His advice to young queer professionals on how to be authentic at work and in life • Finding LGBTQ+ allies, and becoming an ally for future generations • “Coming out” versus “inviting in”: the journey to an authentic self involves making yourself vulnerable to others and asking for help 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.
