Future Career

Are you ready to ignite your visionary thinking and spark real change? Do you struggle to balance authenticity, decisiveness, and empathy in your leadership? Are you determined to empower your team and elevate your impact as a leader? I once found myself overwhelmed by the complexities of leadership, questioning if I had what it takes to inspire and guide a team through uncertainty.

Over the past five years, organizations adopted Slack, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams in droves. Think of COVID-19 as pouring gasoline on the fire. The pandemic didn't start a trend, as much as it accelerated an existing one. Unfortunately, far too many of us mistakenly view these applications as Email 2.0. As a result, we are missing out on extraordinary opportunities to create more collaborative work environments, increase organizational transparency, reduce manual work, make our work lives less stressful, simplify core business processes, and much more.

Women’s sports receive a fraction of the airtime allotted for men’s sports, as well as a fraction of the marketing dollars, media coverage, and training resources. For every dollar that the NBA’s highest-paid player brings home, the WNBA’s highest-paid player earns just half a cent. But while misogyny in sports is particularly visible, it’s not unique. Women athletes face the same sexist barriers found in all career fields: the motherhood penalty, transphobia and misogynoir, underpromotion, and more. But women in sports are fighting back.

Warnings is the story of the future of national security, threatening technologies, the US economy, and possibly the fate of civilization. In Greek mythology Cassandra foresaw calamities, but was cursed by the gods to be ignored. Modern-day Cassandras clearly predicted the disasters of Katrina, Fukushima, the Great Recession, the rise of ISIS, and many more. Like the mythological Cassandra, they were ignored. There are others right now warning of impending disasters, but how do we know which warnings are likely to be right?

The Courage to Continue spotlights the bi-partisan American tradition of environmental stewardship and its relevance in today’s business and political landscape. President Trump’s second term brings a whole-of-government national security strategy that permeates other policy priorities – energy, global trade, deregulation, military spending, industrial policy, immigration, and more. Although the Trump administration’s agenda includes rolling back environmental protections and propagating fossil fuel development, enshrining environmental security has long been an area of political cooperation.
