The debauchery-laden film by Martin Scorsese The Wolf of Wall Street is a prime example of financial corruption, excess, and corporate greed. People who behave like this are what I call Seductive Operational Bullies (SOBs). Some of these people rise to astonishing heights, but in the process they cause enormous damage.

I had been an engineering manager at GE, so my areas of expertise included managing projects, inventory, and finances, all of which would be helpful. It doesn’t have to be something big.

At Uber, the idea for the business has been portrayed as this stroke of ingenuity, but I learned it was actually inspired by a product placement in the 2006 James Bond film Casino Royale. I’ve covered tech for 20 years, so I’d interviewed people like Mark Zuckerberg and the Google founders early in their careers.

Please watch the film. While operating from intuition alone can be a dangerous thing, there are times when those gut feelings serve a very useful purpose. It made me think about how easy it is to miss what’s going on, even when it’s right in front of us. It takes less than a minute. How’d you do?

My analysis: Productivity software does no good unless one commits to change, alters behavioral traits and commits to time management.
