Time For Portland To Take Its Place Chris Loganigniteportland
The document discusses Portland, Oregon from the perspective of a newcomer. It notes that Portland ranks highly in several positive categories like education, books, and outdoor activities. However, it ranks poorly in areas like business climate, venture capital investments, and ethnic diversity. It argues Portland needs to foster more high-growth startups by encouraging companies to think bigger, deliver value globally, raise standards for talent and opportunities, and become more entrepreneurial to strengthen the economy.
This document discusses extreme leadership and provides examples of leaders who achieved exceptional long-term returns for shareholders through serial reinvention, shrewd investments, and superb execution. It examines Richard Branson of Virgin Group, Dick Smith who delivered a 16% compound annual return over 43 years in various industries, and David Cote who increased Honeywell's revenue 69% and profit margins to 16% over 11 years.

Business schools also need to stop reinforcing stereotypes and include more female role models.
Five Reasons Silicon Valley Need Black People andGerald Harris
1) Silicon Valley needs Black people because the African American consumer market spends over $1 trillion annually, African Americans are trendsetters in industries like music and fashion, and Black perspectives can help Silicon Valley avoid failures and better serve diverse communities.
2) Black America needs Silicon Valley because new technologies can make many aspects of the economy more efficient and affordable, like transportation and entertainment, Black people need to participate in wealth creation through tech jobs and startups, and young Black Americans need opportunities in the emerging tech industry.
3) Philanthropic support from Silicon Valley could help elevate Black communities by funding education and other organizations, as wealthy donors have historically done through organizations like historically Black colleges.

Poor hiring decisions can be costly for businesses. Two-thirds of companies reported a bad hire negatively impacted their business in the past year, with nearly a quarter reporting a cost of over $50,000 per bad hire. Bad hires result in lost time and money for training replacement employees, lower productivity, and negatively impact employee morale and client relations. Employers are exploring new ways to research candidates to help prevent costly hiring mistakes.
This document provides an overview of Chapter 4 from an ethics textbook. It covers demanding ethical and socially responsible behavior from businesses. The learning objectives include explaining why obeying the law is only a first step, how to address potential unethical actions, management's role in setting standards, defining corporate social responsibility and comparing responsibilities to stakeholders. Case studies and examples are provided to illustrate concepts like Ponzi schemes, bribery, whistleblowing and corporate philanthropy.
The document analyzes data from Grant Thornton's annual research on the proportion of senior business leadership roles held by women globally. Some key findings:
- The proportion of senior roles held by women has increased only slightly over the past decade, from 19% to 22%, and the proportion of businesses with no female leaders has decreased from 38% to 32%.
- Eastern Europe leads in gender diversity, with 35% of senior roles held by women, while Japan remains at the bottom with only 8%.
- While some European countries have made progress through quotas, little change was seen in North America or the UK. Latin America has declined, with Brazil seeing a large drop.

Mr.Chris Zook is a partner in Bain & Company , an expert in discovering sources of “profitable growth” for his clients, and James Allen, co-leader of Bain’s Global Strategy practice, are the best-selling co-authors of four books on “how to win the external strategy game.”
Here, these forward thinkers address the fundamental conundrum of growth: In the process of growing, companies face proportionally increased “complexity,” which can stifle that growth. Zook and Allen describe three predictable crises related to growth.
• The first, “overload,” occurs when expanding organizations try to cope with scaling up but only generate internal strife.
• The second, “stall-out,” happens as “organizational complexity” increases rapidly, causing a sudden – and often permanent – slowdown in growth.
• And third, “free fall,” is an abrupt halt of primary market growth so sudden that management can’t cope with it. Companies that avoid or overcome these crises and embrace continued growth share one crucial commonality: a driven, visionary “founder” whose “mentality” permeates and shapes the organization’s culture.

Mark Zuckerberg; The Epitome of Leadership
Facebook, the currently most populous social networking site is the pearl of investment in
the contemporary times. Having emanated from the creativity of a college student from his
dormitory in the company of other colleagues, the firm has evolved from a roll out to select
campus colleges to have more than two billion subscribers as at 2019 (Katherine, 2019). The
organization’s success is hinged on workforce efficiency by having the best skills from around
the globe, well founded departments that complement the works of each other, a good strategic
decision making process as well as the a culture of excellence that has earned the company the
positive reputation it has today (Katherine, 2019). However, the greatest asset of the organization
is its founder, chairman and chief executive officer, Mark Zuckerberg.
Born in White place, New York, in the United States of America, Mark Zuckerberg is the
quintessential epitome of modern innovation and dedication to a passion through life. Although
the leader came from a relatively well to do family, it is his personalities that has seen him propel
the company to the level of becoming the model for young entrepreneurship (Valinsky, 2019).
There is a track of great passion in his life. Zuckerberg started computer programming at a very
early age. He later quit college to concentrate on the company affairs. Even though he started the
company from a humble beginning, from a campus dormitory, he has risen to become the
youngest self made billionaire in the current times. The CEO has driven the firm out of scandals
and controversies that could have deflated its progress (Valinsky, 2019). It is his leadership
qualities that have seen his success.
Integrity is the ability to have a clear work ethic fabric to guide decision making and
activities embarked on by a leader. While driving the company, Mark has resisted the allure of
money through unethical practices. Instead he has chosen to steer right, making corrections in
operations to make the company responsible for social transformation across the globe. Even in
scandals such as the litigations filed for fake news, he has offered a firm leadership from the
mess. Purpose is a key principle of leadership. It entails having a consistent direction to achieve
the sought after results. From his days in college, he knew had a strong sense of direction and a
vision for what he has today. This is the spirit that has propelled him to his current status.
Discipline, both in the profession and the realms of social life are a vital attribute of Mark
Zuckerberg. This principle entails the ability to stick to life rules and foregoing the pleasure of
laxity, vices and other unproductive qualities (Qadri, 2016). Zuckerberg has outshone other

Whos the bossIn a holacracy, there isnt one. It isnt as flak.docxhelzerpatrina
Who's the boss?
In a holacracy, there isn't one. It isn't as flaky as it sounds--even larger companies like Zappos are kissing hierarchy goodbye
The first thing the advocates of holacracy would like to clear up is that, even though it's a management philosophy about getting rid of managers, this doesn't mean pushing a company into anarchy, or even hippy-dippy Montessori indulgence. Quite the opposite: They suggest holacracy is about companies growing up.
Take Phil Caravaggio, the founder of Precision Nutrition, a 60-person Toronto firm specializing in tailored life coaching. As his firm grew past the point where it could be run informally on the strength of personal relationships, he went looking for a way to structure the company without setting up yet another deadening corporate hierarchy.
His search led him to holacracy, a governance method that emerged from a software firm in Pennsylvania, of all places, over the last decade. Since then, holacracy has racked up a number of big-name adherents, most notably Zappos, the 1,500-employee, Amazon-owned online footwear store, and the chatter has been growing.
"It's a system for giving everyone real clear autonomy without everything devolving into chaos," explains Caravaggio, speaking over sparkling water in a corner of the Soho club in downtown Toronto.
Caravaggio might be said to head up the firm, though this is where things get fuzzy, because in addition to rejecting hierarchy, holacracy also eschews job titles. When pressed, he says he's technically the "lead link of the general company circle"; one senses that he's had a lot of practice explaining this to people.
In a holacracy, the organization is grouped into a series of concentric, autonomous circles--say, a finance circle, a marketing circle that might contain a web-design circle, all within a big circle that represents the company itself.
Every circle has a leader, who does many of the things a traditional boss does, like deciding on priorities and assigning who does what on the team. But no circle's leader is allowed to butt in on the decision-making process of any other circle--even the smaller ones.
The way these circles speak to each other is one of holacracy's hallmarks. In a traditional organization, the team managers typically represent their teams in meetings. But this puts managers in a bind: On one hand, they have to champion their team's interests to the company; on the other, they have to be the ones to impose their superior's decisions on their team--two roles that can be completely at odds. In a holacracy, each circle elects a representative who's not the leader to sit in other circles, report on their team's progress, and express its concerns to the broader company.
In fact, everything about the way a holacracy works is determined by a set of written rules. It's all laid out in a detailed, but surprisingly concise, 30-page constitution: who is allowed to do what, how meetings are run, how decisions get made, and how to mak ...

The first thing the advocates of holacracy would like to clear up is that, even though it's a management philosophy about getting rid of managers, this doesn't mean pushing a company into anarchy, or even hippy-dippy Montessori indulgence. Quite the opposite: They suggest holacracy is about companies growing up.
Take Phil Caravaggio, the founder of Precision Nutrition, a 60-person Toronto firm specializing in tailored life coaching. As his firm grew past the point where it could be run informally on the strength of personal relationships, he went looking for a way to structure the company without setting up yet another deadening corporate hierarchy.
His search led him to holacracy, a governance method that emerged from a software firm in Pennsylvania, of all places, over the last decade. Since then, holacracy has racked up a number of big-name adherents, most notably Zappos, the 1,500-employee, Amazon-owned online footwear store, and the chatter has been growing.
"It's a system for giving everyone real clear autonomy without everything devolving into chaos," explains Caravaggio, speaking over sparkling water in a corner of the Soho club in downtown Toronto.
Caravaggio might be said to head up the firm, though this is where things get fuzzy, because in addition to rejecting hierarchy, holacracy also eschews job titles. When pressed, he says he's technically the "lead link of the general company circle"; one senses that he's had a lot of practice explaining this to people.
In a holacracy, the organization is grouped into a series of concentric, autonomous circles--say, a finance circle, a marketing circle that might contain a web-design circle, all within a big circle that represents the company itself.
Every circle has a leader, who does many of the things a traditional boss does, like deciding on priorities and assigning who does what on the team. But no circle's leader is allowed to butt in on the decision-making process of any other circle--even the smaller ones.
The way these circles speak to each other is one of holacracy's hallmarks. In a traditional organization, the team managers typically represent their teams in meetings. But this puts managers in a bind: On one hand, they have to champion their team's interests to the company; on the other, they have to be the ones to impose their superior's decisions on their team--two roles that can be completely at odds. In a holacracy, each circle elects a representative who's not the leader to sit in other circles, report on their team's progress, and express its concerns to the broader company.
In fact, everything about the way a holacracy works is determined by a set of written rules. It's all laid out in a detailed, but surprisingly concise, 30-page constitution: who is allowed to do what, how meetings are run, how decisions get made, and how to mak.
Talent management is crucial for organizations to grow their human capital value. McDonald's talent management program, called LAMP, had five key components: executive assessment, individual development planning, leadership modules, executive education, and business improvement recommendations. The program helped McDonald's ensure they had the right people in the right positions. Bank of America's talent management strategy focused on attracting, retaining, and developing great leaders over three phases in an executive's first 36 months. The strategies aimed to align employees with company goals and create engagement, satisfaction, and a sense of pride in the organization. Both companies saw success through implementing formal talent management programs.
The 'shift change' is underway as the retiring baby boom generation makes way for Generation X. The shift change is the transfer of the retiring baby boomers to the next generation of leaders that will be taking the helm in the next few years. This time what got you here won’t get you there.
The incoming shift will require a new set of skills and tools to continue the work of the prior shift. This time it is different.

Bats, the mysterious creatures of the night, have long been a source of fascination and fear for humans. With their eerie squeaks and fluttering wings, they have captured our imagination and sparked our curiosity. Yet, beyond the myths and legends, bats are fascinating creatures that play a vital role in our ecosystem.
There are over 1,300 species of bats, ranging from the tiny Kitti's hog-nosed bat to the majestic flying foxes. These winged mammals are found in almost every corner of the globe, from the scorching deserts to the lush rainforests. Their diversity is a testament to their adaptability and resilience.
Bats are insectivores, feeding on a vast array of insects, from mosquitoes to beetles. A single bat can consume up to 1,200 insects in an hour, making them a crucial part of our pest control system. By preying on insects that damage crops, bats save the agricultural industry billions of dollars each year.
But bats are not just useful; they are also fascinating creatures. Their ability to fly in complete darkness, using echolocation to navigate and hunt, is a remarkable feat of evolution. They are also social animals, living in colonies and communicating with each other through a complex system of calls and body language.
Despite their importance, bats face numerous threats, from habitat destruction to climate change. Many species are endangered, and conservation efforts are necessary to protect these magnificent creatures.
In conclusion, bats are more than just creatures of the night; they are a vital part of our ecosystem, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature. By learning more about these fascinating animals, we can appreciate their importance and work to protect them for generations to come.
