It was 2006 or so, and the briefing topic was about the values of the Army, what it means to be a Soldier, and how we as leaders are the standard bearers of those values. Before there was television, movies and books, there was story telling. What made it so memorable? So effective? Not Looking Forward to This. Click To Tweet.

For a book I was writing about big-time college sports, I wanted to see if I could find evidence that goes beyond anecdotes and back-of-the-envelope estimates. I collected data for every day from February to April for the years 2006 to 2008 (To make sure I didn't confound my results, I excluded universities on spring break.)

I worked with him for three years (2006-2008) during my work with Rick Wagoner and his senior team on the attempt to turnaround the fortunes of GM.

In one of Oatley and Mar's studies in 2006 , 94 subjects were asked to guess the emotional state of a person from a photograph of their eyes. In addition to the Trollope, below are some of my favorite books to get you started. From now on, I'm going to feel less like an escapist slacker when I'm engrossed in a new novel.

Not long after Alan Greenspan stepped down as Federal Reserve chairman in 2006, global financial markets began to unravel. In the fall he came out with a book setting out his new and improved worldview, The Map and the Territory: Risk, Human Nature, and the Future of Forecasting.

In 2003, then-HBR-editor Nick Carr wrote an article (and later a book) titled “IT Doesn’t Matter.” Lakhani then provided the dates at which Nokia had offered those features: an app store in 2001 , a touch screen in 2002 , a web browser in 2006. IT Does Matter. Why, then, did Apple prevail?

It''s only through history and books or films that my generation has a grasp of what life must have been like. There has been a dramatic shift in mentality, and it doesn''t take much to work out the date on which this happened: September 11, 2001. But the technology alone isn''t the problem.
