For the past two years, many conversations about AI in the workplace have revolved around productivity. How do we get more output? How do we automate tasks? How do we reduce cost? All important questions. But they’re still focused on efficiency while the real performance breakthroughs in organizations don’t come from speed alone. They come...
By any conventional startup logic, LumberFi should already be slowing down. In just two years, the construction-tech platform has gone from zero to more than 70 employees, 5× annual growth, and recognition from both NASDAQ and the NYSE as one of the fastest-growing companies in its category. But founder and CEO Shreesha Ramdas is already operating in...
Across large enterprises, AI is moving quickly from experimentation into daily work. That shift is forcing leaders to confront issues they can’t delegate to technology: how performance is measured, how people are supported through change, and how values show up when machines start doing more of the work. Not every company is approaching those questions...
Fractional executives aren’t just a trend. They are now essential to the modern startup toolset. However, if bringing one part-time leader on board is a challenge, hiring several at once is a whole new management game, and most founders aren’t fully prepared. As more CEOs tap into a “portfolio” C-suite, the struggle shifts from simply getting the talent to actually...
When I look at the leaders best equipped to guide companies through the turbulence of AI transformation, one question keeps surfacing: Could tomorrow’s most successful CEOs come from today’s CTO and CIO ranks? Certainly not every future CEO will come directly from the CTO or CIO’s chair. But every successful CEO will need the qualities of...
Organizations often talk about the types of culture they want to see—a candid culture, a collaborative culture, an accountable culture, a customer-centric culture, an agile culture, an inclusive culture, a resilient culture, or a culture with a growth mindset. But they miss that it all can simply boil down to the execution of simple practices...
Alignment is one of the rare attributes of truly world-class teams—and a true competitive advantage. The world may be volatile and uncertain, but dream team members know what their peers are working on, what goals are being activated; they know everyone is aligned on the same critical mission. By contrast, teams in siloed organizations are...
There’s a practical question I’m sometimes asked by leaders as they shift their teams from slow and siloed ways of working to fast, bold and inclusive collaboration: “How do we keep track of rapid decisions when we’re playing as a team?” It’s a critical question in today’s fast-paced business environment. As organizations move away from...
Twenty years ago, I wrote Never Eat Alone, a book that transformed how millions approach networking and relationship-building. As I reflect on the book’s 20th anniversary year and two decades of working with leaders and teams across the globe, one truth stands out: the power of meaningful connections to achieve ambitious goals has been the...
In today’s fast-paced business world, the ability to learn and adapt quickly isn’t just nice to have—it’s essential for survival and success. We cannot possibly think we are equipped for what is happening around the corner. That’s everyone and every team—including the C-suite. There is a false belief among people who reach the leader ranks...
When most CEOs were focused solely on the bottom line in the early 2000s, Zappos founder Tony Hsieh was busy rewriting the rules of corporate culture. Hsieh’s radical idea? That prioritizing employee happiness and personal growth could be a powerful driver of business success. Under Hsieh’s leadership, Zappos became renowned not just for its customer...
The future belongs to teams that can see it coming—but our research shows that only 25% of Fortune 500 companies have a consistent, structured approach to anticipating and navigating disruption. Let that sink in for a moment. In a world where change is the only constant, three out of four of the biggest, most resource-rich...
In the heat of a high-stakes championship game, a coach throws a red flag onto the football field. Play pauses. The team does not dwell on mistakes or look to place blame; they want to check everyone is aligned and playing by the agreed-upon rules. Now let us imagine that same commitment to shared accountability...
