The Human Lifespan

Coaching Tip

Average life expectancy around the world has climbed steadily over the past 100 years. But longevity seems to have topped out at about 120 years. To some researchers, this suggests there's a natural limit to how long humans can live--and we've pretty much reached it. Others say, in effect, that past performance doesn't guarantee future results. New and emerging medical technologies, they say, might be able to slow aging to such an extent that not only will we live much longer, but we'll stay b

Harvard Business Review

Harvard Business Review

The true gender pay-gap is not known with certainty, but, when comparing equally qualified people doing the same job, most estimates by labor economists put it at 10% – 20%.

Leaders Focus Too Much on Changing Policies, and Not Enough on Changing Minds

Harvard Business Review

Management concepts, by contrast, operate in poorly regulated environments where failures are often brushed under boardroom or faculty carpets.
