Growing up, other people’s perception was my reality. I lived in a world where no one thought that I could do anything great, that I was mediocre to say the least. In fact, there was no such thing as expectation when it came to my ability to deliver academically. I supposed my lack of success had something to do with it. But I have to assure you that it was not due to lack of trying.

F or the longest time, I felt like my place was to be quiet and let others go before. I thought I had nothing to offer the world. Whenever I’d reflect on who I was, I never saw the good. I never saw that I had skills people would give their right arm for. Image via Creative Commons. I began realizing I had skills that were valuable after I picked up a copy of Dan Miller’s 48 Days To The Work You Love (Check out my interview with Dan Miller ).

It’s tougher than it used to be – tougher finding credible, reliable sources… In my speech classes, I have my students list their sources for their speeches. You know, “where did they get their information?” I lecture about how to find credible sources — the ancient principle of ethos – the character of the speaker,… Read More Is this the Era of Unreliable Sources?

On September 11, 2001, I was enjoying the tail end of my summer holiday with family in Connecticut. Over the past year, I had been studying Osama bin Laden’s enigmatic fatwas as a graduate student at Oxford. At the time, al-Qaeda was not well known, so I was surprised to find that in the climate of paralyzing fear after the attacks, everyone around me professed to know exactly why this group had struck the United States.

One person stands between you and your next raise or promotion: your boss. While others on the leadership team — and even your peers — may exert some influence on your career future, it’s your direct supervisor who can pull the strings to either grant or deny your chance for advancement. But to get what you want, you have to ask for it.

Entrepreneurs are the lifeline of any economy, and high-growth start-ups in particular are responsible for the great majority of new job creation. It’s worrying, then, that according to several reports the number of new businesses being created in the U.S. has been stalled since the end of the recession. As a mentor to many start-up entrepreneurs, I find this slow-down concerning, and I see one reason that’s rarely spoken about and needs a closer look: what I call spreadsheet asphyxi

Dave Wheeler FOR HBR. The UN General Assembly held its regular meeting in New York this fall. But this year its purpose was different – and with significant implications for the future of the human condition. More than 190 member countries committed to “eliminate poverty in all its forms everywhere” by 2030, together with 16 other “big, hairy, audacious goals” — to use Jim Collins’ memorable phrase.

As the terrorist attacks in Paris were unfolding, and in their immediate aftermath, I found myself glued to Twitter. Just as I’d been during countless other disasters, whether natural or man-made. It may be a new media, but it’s an old impulse – in times of trouble, seek out other humans. Go to the town square. Stay together. I became curious about what this impulse might mean for all the users hitting “refresh” on their feeds and for the crisis response managers fe
