SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Rita Kakati-Shah
DESCRIPTION:Rita Kakati-Shah\, an award-winning gender inclusion strategist\, is the author of “The Goddess of Go-Getting\,” a fun guide to making your way in the world when you are not in the majority group. Rita’s spin on diversity\, equity and inclusion is that most people get it wrong and\, as a result\, the outcomes are causing people to segregate rather than unify. Rita attended Sandhurst\, the British equivalent of West Point\, where she attained the rank of sergeant major. She then became one of the first women on Goldman Sachs’ trading floor in London and spearheaded business development in the CNS drug development industry before starting her own company.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Richard Rumelt
DESCRIPTION:Richard Rumelt has been described by no less than McKinsey as a “giant in the field of strategy.” He’s also a dear friend and an enormously influential thought leader. We’re going to chat about his latest book\, “The Crux” in which he illustrates the principles of challenge-based strategy. The idea is that strategists need to identify the main obstacle to overcome\, and do so again and again – a very dynamic approach.

He will be joined by Rita McGrath\, Professor at Columbia Business School and an international expert on strategy and innovation in uncertain and volatile environments.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Rob Cross and Karen Dillon
DESCRIPTION:We all know about the big things that cause us to feel burned out. Toxic bosses. Obnoxious colleagues. Too much work. Impossible deadlines. The list goes on. But\, did you know that sometimes your feeling of burnout isn’t the result of one big thing – its the accumulation of tons of little things – Microstressors – that invisibly drain your capacity\, deplete your emotions and challenge your identity. In this chat\, Babson Professor Rob Cross and well known Harvard Business Review author Karen Dillon will discuss their research into this important phenomenon and more importantly\, what you can do about it.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Freada Kapor Klein
DESCRIPTION:It’s easy to despair at high levels of inequality and lack of access to capital and resources that still face entrepreneurs who aren’t white\, male or well-connected. Freada Kapor Klein’s career is a beacon of hope for those of us looking for real\, practical solutions. The Fund\, Kapor Capital\, which she co-founded puts its money into underrepresented founders with huge impact on the entrepreneurial ecosystem and benefits for all of us! She is going to be joining me to discuss her new co-authored book “Closing the Equity Gap” to share with others how its done. Join us live on May 5th at 1pm EST or catch the recording afterward.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Zeynep Ton
DESCRIPTION:Do you see employees as units of cost? Do you think that offering “market based” pay\, few opportunities for advancement and obsolete tools is a solid path to business success? Then please join me and MIT professor Zeynep Ton for a session that could prove life-changing. Zeynep’s research shows that well paid workers\, trained\, with a path to advancement and supported by the right processes\, can boost the top line in surprising ways. Her new book “The Case for Good Jobs” lays it all out. I am a huge fan and am thrilled she’ll be joining me in conversation on June 23. Join us live or tune in for the recording afterward. There will be gems there for everyone to learn from.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with April Dunford (BEING RESCHEDULED)
DESCRIPTION:You have doubtless at some point been asked to fill in a “Mad Libs” style positioning statement. Product ___ offers ___ benefits to ___ target customer\, allowing them to ____. Typical. My guest this week\, April Dunford\, thoroughly debunked this nonsensical approach to positioning in her previous book “Obviously awesome” which is an amazing guide to getting positioning right. She has a new book coming on creating great sales pitches that I think will be just as illuminating – and useful! Join us for a conversation I am really excited about.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Sheena Iyengar
DESCRIPTION:Aside from being one of my dearest colleagues at Columbia\, and someone I love to casually say I last saw at Davos\, Sheena Iyengar is one of the worlds’ foremost authorities on choice and choosing. She has a wonderful new book out on how we can find great solutions to truly difficult problems\, with lots of examples and practical tips. It’s called “Think Bigger” and we’ll be talking about it at this Friday Fireside Chat. It will be August\, so we’ll probably forgo the actual fire. Join us for what I guarantee will be a super stimulating event.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat - "Discovery Driven Leadership: A Valize Conversation”
DESCRIPTION:We all know that competitive advantages often don’t last\, and that means you need innovation skills to create new advantages and transformation skills to shift the center of gravity of your organization when an old advantage has eroded. But it is still a huge organizational struggle.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Kelly Richmond-Pope
DESCRIPTION:Forensic accounting and filmmaking? How does that go together? Well\, join Kelly Richmond-Pope\, a Professor at DePaul University in Chicago as we delve in what she’s learned from years of studying fraudsters\, scammers and backroom operators of all kinds. Her new book is “Fool Me Once” and it uncovers what makes perps tick\, why victims are so gullible\, and why whistleblowers are so morally righteous. It’s serious stuff but also legitimately hilarious. Join us by the fireside in October. I’m looking forward to a fascinating conversation.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Rita McGrath and Anupam B. Jena
DESCRIPTION:Anupam B. Jena has a day job as the Joseph P. Newhouse Professor of Health Care Policy at Harvard Medical School and a physician in the Department of Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital. He is also a faculty research associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research. His vantage point at the intersection of health care and economics landed him a role as the host of the Freakonomics MD podcast and also as the author of a fascinating book “Random Acts of Medicine.” The book draws on naturally occurring experiments to look at how chance events affect medical care. For instance\, what’s the relationship between the introduction of E-Z pass tollbooths and positive impact on babies’ health who live near them? Hint: since cars weren’t waiting in long lines any more\, there was less air pollution! For more fascinating examples\, join us.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Rita McGrath and Steve Wunker
DESCRIPTION:The phrase “innovate or die” has never been more relevant\, yet the track record of most companies for organic innovation is dismal. But\, there are leaders who demonstrate that making innovation an actual proficiency can be accomplished. Steve Wunker\, together with his co-authors Jennifer Luo Law and Hari Nair\, de-mystify the process. Examples include Microsoft’s Satya Nadella\, Panera’s Ron Shaich and Levi’s Chip Bergh. We’ll chat about their practical and useful new book “The Innovative Leader” that takes readers on a step by step approach to building innovation capability.

SUMMARY:Friday Fireside Chat with Rita McGrath and Barron Witherspoon
DESCRIPTION:Barron Witherspoon enjoyed tremendous success in a 38-year career with major leadership responsibilities at Procter & Gamble (as well as in a second career as an ordained minister!). Nonetheless\, the journey wasn’t always easy as a Black man making his way in corporate America. He’s now distilled his wisdom into a new book\, “The Black Exec: And the Seven Myths\,” a primer for diverse talent seeking to succeed. During this chat\, I’m hoping to learn the enduring lessons of his success\, reflect on the current state of racial disparities in America and find encouragement for what we can all do next.
