Today’s modern professionals are busier than ever—doubly so for lawyers. With increased workloads, industry pressures, and distractions abounding, it’s become imperative that lawyers be capable of focusing on the task at hand to better serve their clients and themselves.
Enter mindfulness. Once the domain of people seeking spiritual health, the undeniable benefits of mindfulness have led to it being adopted and implemented by businesses from Fortune 500 companies to startups. Drawing on 12 years’ experience as a practicing attorney and mindfulness advocate, Jeena Cho (author of The Anxious Lawyer) covers:
- What ‘mindfulness’ is, and how it can benefit your business
- Simple tips for improving focus and productivity in your law firm
- How modern attorneys can ease stress and avoid burnout
This document discusses how to make good and difficult decisions. It recommends avoiding stress when making decisions, as stress can impair judgment. It also suggests preventing decision fatigue by limiting the number of decisions made in a single session. The document also warns about common cognitive biases like self-serving bias, confirmation bias, cognitive fluency bias, and sunk cost bias that can influence decision making. It concludes by advising people to be aware of biases, focus on future costs when decisions involve sunk costs, and make decisions knowing they can be changed later.
This document discusses how to fail at being agile by not truly embracing its principles. It notes that while scrum may make problems obvious, it does not solve them. True agility involves teams regularly reflecting to improve, trusting one another, eliminating waste through continuous learning and improvement, and respecting people. It emphasizes celebrating learning over success or failure, and choosing not to blame but rather focus on problem solving to rebuild trust.

How to grow (or save) your favorite open source projectJen Weber
Jen Weber gives a presentation on how to grow and sustain an open source project community. She discusses establishing priorities and focusing on important non-urgent tasks. Weber recommends inspiring and persuading contributors through principles like liking, social proof, and reciprocity. The presentation results in increased contributors, content, and awareness for the Ember learning project.
This document discusses social influence and groupthink. It summarizes that (1) people are strongly influenced by the opinions of the majority, even when the majority is obviously wrong. This effect is difficult to counteract. (2) Normative influence refers to understanding social expectations, while informational influence means seeing others' opinions as evidence. (3) Various applications aim to increase normative influence, like showing rankings, reviews, and others' opinions on social media, but this can distort individual decision-making.
This document summarizes a presentation on disruptive innovation in the digital era. It discusses how the world is constantly changing due to digital technologies like mobile, social media, cloud computing and real-time data. True innovation requires disruptive thinking that changes existing business models rather than just making incremental improvements. To survive, companies must embrace disruption by integrating digital technologies into their products, services and business models in ways that create new value for customers. The presentation provides tips for organizations to adopt this kind of disruptive mindset including investing in learning and testing new ideas, developing a sense of urgency, breaking down silos, and getting everyone involved in digital transformation.

Reimagining Feedback for the 21st Century WorkplaceNext Jump
This document discusses feedback in the 21st century workplace. It notes that while feedback aims to advance learning, giving and receiving honest feedback can be difficult. Research has focused on characteristics of the feedback giver and receiver that influence acceptance of feedback. However, more context-specific research is needed. The document advocates moving from sporadic feedback for evaluations, to frequent feedback to drive learning. It suggests feedback can catalyze skills like team learning, growth mindset, decision-making and creativity. Examples from an organization called Next Jumpers show how frequent feedback helps take interpersonal risks and strengthens abilities like judgment and innovation. The document questions assumptions behind the "feedback sandwich" approach and argues for more direct feedback delivery.
This document discusses insights from Moneyball Analytics' work in people analytics. It focuses on using technology and data to provide organizational insights in real-time related to attracting, retaining, and developing talent. Specifically, it aims to identify early signals of burnout, turnover, hiding, and learning challenges. The document then shares learnings around receiving feedback, giving feedback, and iterating organizational design with the goal of an "information advantage." Key insights include that not receiving feedback correlates with low performance, and that building a habit of frequent feedback helps see patterns over time. It also discusses making honest feedback common and recovery from feedback an important process.

When organizations implement these kinds of learning environments focused on transparency and improvement over performance, it allows people to do their best work.

John Griffin is currently paving the way for new explorative ways to bring Design to the forefront of the Ford Credit Europe products.
With a background co-founding design consultancies Wolfcub and Pack, he’s spent the last 8 years honing his craft on clients including ASOS, HSBC, Diageo, and Google alongside helping a multitude of start-ups launch their ideas. When John’s not going deep on bringing product ideas to life, you can find him behind the mic podcasting, running the industry event Product Unleashed, or talking about his favorite 80s films to anyone who will listen long enough!
Speech Overview:
Why are we so afraid for our ideas to fail?
Is failure just learning with a bad reputation?
The idea of our ideas failing can not only hold us back from making a start on something but can also leave us in an endless loop of all-talk-no-action.
For teams to truly be successful, failure needs to move from elephant in the room to engrained within your DNA.

Essential Skills for the 21st Century Manager by Steve Francis AIMM, delivered at the Australian Institute of Management Open House in Brisbane on Wednesday 7 August 2013.
With the amount of time we spend working we should be able to find work that excites us and inspires us. This presentation helps people see that they are in control of how much they love their work. It motivates your workforce to reignite their passion, and their love for what they do.
This document outlines 8 reasons why people may resist change: 1) Fear of change, as change introduces unknowns; 2) Conflicts with existing values; 3) Not seeing the need for change; 4) Perceiving the rewards of changing as too low; 5) Lacking trust in the proposed change or solution; 6) Feeling insufficiently involved in the change process; 7) Thinking that nothing can be changed; 8) Viewing learning to change as too difficult. Resistance can arise from concerns about how change may impact individuals as well as organizations.
Productivity is the amount of results an organization gets for a given amount of inputs. Attitude is the desire to perform work, and studies show 85% of job or promotion success is due to attitude over facts and figures. Procrastination is putting off tasks to a later time. Skill is the ability to perform a task while competence includes attitude and desire. Problems stem more from people issues than business issues, and saying "I cannot do this" usually means a lack of knowledge or lack of desire. Good leaders create more leaders while bad leaders create followers due to insecurity.
Slides from the talk I gave at a London CTOs meet up about some of the ways that teams react to the mistakes they make and how blameless reviews can help teams learn from these mistakes.
Creating Change in Organizations, Associations and CompaniesTerri Levine
The document discusses leading organizational change and the challenges associated with it. It states that a CEO's job is to lead change by reshaping employees' views and replacing the status quo with a new vision for the future. Leading successful change is an integrated process that requires constant revision of aspects like staffing, resources, strategies and values. However, change often fails when leadership is delegated prematurely or decisions are made without complete information. The document provides tips for leading change, such as assessing the starting point, building support among key groups, managing obstacles to change, and clearly communicating the future vision.

This document discusses how companies can utilize social media for corporate social responsibility and other initiatives. It outlines 6 growing trends of using social media for social good: 1) online donations, 2) micro-volunteerism, 3) crisis mapping, 4) crowd-sourced cause marketing campaigns, 5) government 2.0/open government, and 6) online and offline engagement. Examples are provided for each trend, such as Facebook's Causes app and CrowdRise platform for fundraising, Sparked and Do More Good for micro-volunteering, and Ushahidi for crisis mapping. The document also discusses cross-sector collaboration through social media and resources for learning more.
This document discusses how ethical branding and corporate social responsibility are increasingly important to consumers and brands. It notes that the market for ethically produced goods is growing significantly. Social media can help brands increase transparency about their ethical practices and values, encourage user-generated content, build consumer trust and drive traffic. The document provides examples of how brands like TOMS, Tropicana, Divine Chocolate, Marks & Spencer and Patagonia use social media differently to engage consumers and communicate their ethical values and activities. It emphasizes listening to consumers, providing relevant content, delivering on promises, and maintaining consistency and transparency.

Case Study: Shire Pharmaceuticals Partners with Nonprofit Philabundance to Achieve CSR Objectives with Social Media
Presented by: Matt Cabrey, Senior Director, Corporate Communications, Shire Pharmaceuticals
To help fight hunger, Shire Pharmaceuticals partnered with Philadelphia based Philabundance to engage high school sudents in a food drive. Social media outreach was a critical component of the CSR initiative resulting in 25,000 students collecting 64 tons of food. More than 30 Shire employees volunteered; and, the company itself collected 1 ton of food. Over 8.5 million media impressions were achieved.
www.bdionline.com
This document discusses how companies can use social media for corporate social responsibility. It recommends developing a social media communication plan and identifies opportunities to engage stakeholders online. Key elements include using social media as a strategic tool, creating a communication plan for platforms like Twitter, and finding ways to partner with relevant organizations and hashtags to strengthen social impact efforts.
Some of the slide ideas in this come from a presentation also available on Slideshare I think. But I will be damned if I can remember now where they came from. To the authors, my sincerest apologies.
How companies are doing CSR in Social MediaDinesh Thakur
Facebook and Twitter provide effective platforms for companies to conduct corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities due to their large user bases and engagement features. Facebook has over 500 million users who spend 700 billion minutes per month on the site, allowing companies to connect with stakeholders through customized pages, videos, blogs and groups. Similarly, Twitter allows companies to increase followers and participate in communities to promote CSR causes like the Children's Defense Fund, which aims to ensure all children get a healthy start through leave no child behind. These social media sites offer opportunities for relationship building and message sharing around important social issues.
Make the world a better place using new media and technology! How can businesses use social media for CSR and sustainability work? A lecture for the Swedish Institute.
CSIC research fellow Tracey Wright interviews 12 DC-area small businesses to explore how they use social media to communicate their socially responsible business practices to their stakeholders.
Sustainability 2.0 - The Confluence of Sustainability and Social MediaSustainable Brands
The document discusses trends at the intersection of social media and corporate social responsibility (CSR). It finds that companies are increasingly integrating social media like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and blogs into their sustainability reporting and stakeholder engagement. This is creating new business opportunities and driving improved performance in reporting, engagement and operations. Top companies for social media and CSR in 2011 included Coca-Cola, Starbucks and Disney. The use of videos, comments and questions/answers on websites is growing. By 2015, Twitter is projected to become the top source of sustainability news, and investment in sustainable social media activities is expected to increase by over 25% for most companies.
The document discusses barriers to dialogue and CSR communication in social media. It analyzes interviews with managers at a pharmaceutical company about launching a CSR Twitter account. Key barriers identified include unfamiliarity with social media, managerial scepticism of outcomes on new platforms, restrictive internal guidelines, and limited resources. These barriers negatively impact principles of building online relationships like keeping communication useful, frequent, conversational, and committed. The conclusion emphasizes looking at organizational aspects and developing capabilities for social media communication.
This document discusses how social media can be an effective platform for corporate social responsibility initiatives. It provides examples of how companies have used social media to engage communities in CSR programs, respond to feedback, and strengthen stakeholder relationships. Specifically, social media allows companies to collaborate with customers, participate in discussions, and demonstrate their commitment to social causes in a transparent way. While authentic engagement is important to avoid backlash, social media can deliver new opportunities for businesses to partner and drive positive change if they listen to communities and discuss issues of value.
This document summarizes a presentation on social media and corporate social responsibility. It discusses how social media has democratized public spaces and increased transparency. It outlines different types of social media and principles of participation. It examines the relationship between social media and CSR, noting their common focus on transparency and accountability. The presentation uses the example of BP's oil spill to illustrate how social media can impact brands. It proposes a ladder model for CSR adoption on social media and provides strategies companies can take at each level, from listening to aligning business with social goals.

Building a social media strategy - TMM WebionarAndy Lambert
The document provides guidance on building a successful social media strategy through a 6-step content framework. It discusses why social media strategy is important, outlines 6 golden rules of social media, and presents the 6Cs content strategy framework covering customer, context, creativity, calculation, channels, and community. The document also provides examples and ideas for different types of content that can be created for each of the 6Cs, such as bonding content to introduce and engage audiences, and showcase content to demonstrate expertise. It emphasizes that people now see themselves as creators and turn to others for recommendations, and discusses how to think about building communities.
This document provides an overview of ten tools for organizational and individual effectiveness. It discusses feed forward and the Johari window technique in session nine. The Johari window model graphically portrays different states of self-awareness and how others perceive someone. It has four quadrants - public, hidden, unknown, and private areas. Providing and receiving feedforward can help expand one's public area and decrease their hidden or "blind spot" area by gaining insights from others. The document emphasizes how tools like feedforward and the Johari window can increase self-awareness and improve communication and relationships.
The document discusses how personal branding and social networking can impact an individual's reputation or "personal brand". It emphasizes that everyone has the potential to stand out and build their skills into a notable personal brand through excellence, differentiation, authenticity, consistency, and network reach. However, privacy is reduced due to social media. The document provides tips for developing a positive personal brand online such as knowing your strengths and goals, getting honest feedback, having a strategic plan and timeline, and using social media appropriately to build quality relationships.
The document provides 7 keys for connecting with audiences about sustainability: 1) Be positive and focus on solutions rather than problems, 2) Keep messages simple, 3) Build trust by being transparent, 4) Engage audiences through examples rather than explanations, 5) Go against the grain by speaking softly rather than loudly, 6) Borrow the halo effect from popular brands and values, 7) Create an ongoing social media platform for engagement rather than one-time reports.
What it takes to create innovation that wins by Andria LongAndria Long
Andria Long discusses what it takes to drive innovation success. She provides 4 keys: 1) Define the right goals by setting realistic expectations for size of innovation. 2) Focus on creating what consumers really want or need through early consumer guidance. 3) Differentiate and evolve offerings or risk being replaced. 4) Embrace failure and learn from mistakes to iterate and improve faster than competitors. Innovation success rates are low due to not meeting these keys - not understanding consumer needs, lacking differentiation, and failing to adapt or learn from failures.

CTO Universe Leadership Series: The Six Principles of PersuasionBrittanyShear
As senior tech leaders, we often fall prey to thinking that a “good idea” and logical case is sufficient to get the desired response and result. We might be trying to get our CEO on-board with investment in a new technology or a rearchitecture effort, or we might want culture or process changes by our team. Our “good idea” is simply the beginning. An idea must be communicated; a case must be made; and ultimately other people must be persuaded to get onboard.
Michael Carducci brings a fascinating background to this webinar. He’s a technologist and regularly works to help senior leaders improve their results. He’s also a professional mentalist and has been a student of psychology, human behavior and the principles of influence for nearly two decades.

To begin with, we have decided to come up with a product called “Build Your Future.” The purpose for our brand “Build Your Future” is to help people find that perfect spouse they’ve been missing or searching for.

Our company will be building human like robots with artificial intelligence from the ground up based off the buyer’s preference. Consumers will have the choice of everything they would want to be included in their person of interest for instance; hair color, skin color, height, weight, and personality.
2. Method
The mastermind behind the planning came about via social media. Social media is a platform that allows many individuals to create and share their ideas in social networking. So as I prepared to do my secondary research, I used social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to gather all the intake I needed for our new products. While doing this, we found many sources like “Being single hits very hard at night”, “I deserve everything and then some”, “The older you get the harder it is to like somebody”, “This generation will really have you kicking it solo”, and many more. Going about this process gave me a lot of information I needed, being that almost everyone in this generation communicate through the internet.
Based off of our research for our secondary data, we decided to provide surveys amongst several individuals. In the survey, we asked if any would want to find their significant other the natural way or build one. Out of a total of 100 surveys, 75% of the people requested build as their choice. Also in the survey, we provided other questions regarding the choice of building their soulmate like; descriptive features, personality traits, and other qualifications that would matter in their case for their spouse to convey. The answers to those questions would help significantly being that our new product has the ability to assemble whatever you would prefer your spouse to have. Interviews were also conducted to go off of the surveys presented to strongly justify the individual’s choice and honesty.

The challenge with this BPR was that at the time our clients included 16 Fortune 500 CPG. With that level of sophistication, executing BPR was like changing a tire on a moving car.
This really showed the effectiveness of great in-store programs. In addition to industry awards, we found ourselves at the Oscar's, Emmy's, Olympic's......and this was a start-up with zero product less than 24 months earlier.
