Deepa Purushothaman was one of the youngest people and the first Indian American woman to make partner in Deloitte’s history. But having ascended high up the corporate ladder, she realized that her work life wasn’t working. It took conversations wi
I very much enjoyed General Stanley McChrystal’s Team of Teams. I’ll definitely draw on his observations as I get fully stuck into writing my next book Team Think – How teams make great decisions.
Here is a great summary article in Chief Executive about Gen. McChrystal’s Risk Immune System analogy he espouses in his latest book Risk: A User’s Guide. The analogy of HIV/AIDS not being the cause of death of HIV/AIDS sufferers. They die from other causes once their defences are compromised. He explai

The Schork Group's primary goal is to provide research analytics and trading as well as hedging recommendations with analysis for the global energy community.
Stephen gives insights on the current status of the energy market, and how recent agreements have made an impact on the economic growth, such as with the raise in energy prices. T
The role of corporate functions, traditionally, has been to conduct the various service-oriented specialized tasks necessary to run the business. Corporate functions are of strategic significance in achieving organizational objectives yet their role at most enterprises is kind of contractual at best. These units assist in routine operations, facilitate other business units, and manage conflicts and relevant pressing matters. For instance, the Human Resources (HR) function is typically respons

In December 2020, the first highly anticipated doses of COVID-19 vaccines arrived, sparking hope that 2021 might bring a fresh new start less burdened by the pandemic. Since January, the world has made huge strides in managing the pandemic — but coronavirus variants have advanced as well. Thanks to the delta variant, the Great Of
Many growing companies are adopting a best-of-breed approach to business applications. Rather than purchasing their ERP, CRM, HCM, warehouse management, and other systems from the same vendor, companies are using products from multiple manufacturers and integrating them together, often in the cloud. In addition, through mergers and acquisitions, they are integrating with still other business applications and bringing in the system administrators and employees from the acquired company.

A few blogs ago I mentioned Digby Scott’s definition of a change maker:
“…self-driven, self-starters, who don’t need hand holding, but they do value fresh perspectives, ideas and inspiration to help them make the impact they want to make.”
Below I align his four descriptors of people’s attitudes to change from his book Change Makers to my four levels of descriptors of how a risk function may be perceived by the business you are trying to change. Such an interesting comparison, don’t you think?
Openverse has its origin embedded in copyrights, with a long and interesting journey. Before we understand how it will revolutionize WordPress, let’s first get to know about Creative Commons (CC).
Creative Commons is a nonprofit organization, a global network, and a global movement taking its inception from people around the world, who wish to share their knowledge, creativity, ideas, on a flexible term rather than following the default copyright laws.

I believe that each human being is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. It is my desire as an educator to help students meet their fullest potential in these areas by providing an environment that is safe, supports risk-taking, and invites a sharing of

If you have been reading my last couple of blogs you will know I have been talking about change management (in particular for risk managers).
Of course, change management means identifying and managing stakeholders. This week I facilitated a workshop that presented the perfect example of the risk that stakeholders pose if they are difficult to influence. It involved a state government agency that has become the tail-wagging-the-dog type of powerful stakeholder agency. I’ll call them the “boss” ag
We can achieve the rewards of reflection and avoid the pitfalls of rumination by
