Daniel Boone was born in Pennsylvania in 1734 and spent his youth hunting. During the French and Indian War, he served with the British and became a hunter. In 1773, Boone established the first British colony in Kentucky by packing up his family and blazing the Wilderness Road. He went on to create the settlements of Boonesborough and Harrodsburg in 1775. During the American Revolution, many settlers left Kentucky or moved into fortified towns due to allying Indians. Boone was later captured by Shawnee Indians in 1778 but escaped back to Boonesborough. He died on September 26, 1820.

Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldaba
How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves?
Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation. Using quantitative facts to evoke an emotional response is best achieved with the combination of UX and data storytelling.
Succession “Losers”: What Happens to Executives Passed Over for the CEO Job?
Succession “Losers”: What Happens to Executives Passed Over for the CEO Job? Stanford GSB Corporate Governance Research Initiative
This document summarizes a study of CEO succession events among the largest 100 U.S. corporations between 2005-2015. The study analyzed executives who were passed over for the CEO role ("succession losers") and their subsequent careers. It found that 74% of passed over executives left their companies, with 30% eventually becoming CEOs elsewhere. However, companies led by succession losers saw average stock price declines of 13% over 3 years, compared to gains for companies whose CEO selections remained unchanged. The findings suggest that boards generally identify the most qualified CEO candidates, though differences between internal and external hires complicate comparisons.Viewers also liked (6)
