Nando Parrado and James Cameron

CEO Blog

I have heard Nando Parrado speak twice before. I have watched the movie Alive. The story of the rugby team that crashed on a plane in South America. Many of those in the crash had never seen snow. They were dressed in tshirts. No food. No water. They resorted to cannibalism but that is not the real story. That is a sideline. Nando's mother and sister died in the crash. 45 people crashed in the Andes. 29 people survived the initial crash. 24 of those had no major injuries.

No Ego: How Leaders Can Cut the Cost of Drama, End Entitlement and Drive Big Results

Speaker: Cy Wakeman, M.S., CSP, President, Reality-Based Leadership

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

Return on Failure: The Equation

Mills Scofield

What is failure? When things don't go according to plan or expectations, ending up with unexpected and/or undesired outcomes (which we can argue could have been avoidable, or not). The key is ‘undesired' - because if they were desired and not planned or expected, that would still be great! But, as we will see, failure is a terrific way to learn.

The Business Plan Fallacy

Mills Scofield

As I'm reviewing business plans from college grads I'm mentoring (as an alumnae mentor at Brown Univ ) and from Glengary , the VC firm I'm a partner in, this whole business plan process is getting to me. So much of what I see in biz plans is, pardon the phrase, BS. We all know none of us believe any of the numbers is the proformas, the market growth, etc., so why do we bother with all this stuff when we know it's a joke?

Book Review: The Truth About Leadership

LDRLB

'There are far too many leadership books in the world. Most are merely the admonitions and life experiences of current or former “big name” leaders. While these are interesting glimpse into the life of celebrity leaders, there really isn’t much that can be generalized to all leaders. That’s what I’ve loved for years about Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner, and can see in their new book: The Truth About Leadership.
