The Upreneur podcast has partnered up with SCORE, hosted by Jeremy Straub, to help bring engaging conversations with today's top leaders and business owners. In today's episode, we spoke with Patrick Mcginnes, Founder of FOMO. We spoke about how Patrick coined the phase FOMO and what we can do to get past it. Patrick J. McGinnis is a speaker, writer, international venture capitalist, and the investor of the term FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). Patrick coined FOMO, as well as the related term FOBO (Fear of a Better Option) in a 2004 article in the student newspaper of Harvard Business School. FOMO has since been added to the dictionary and FOBO has become an increasingly popular framework to describe choice paralysis. Patrick is the author of Fear of Missing Out: Practical Decision-Making in a World of Overwhelming Choice, a global bestseller that has been translated into more than ten languages and his popular 2019 TED Talk on FOBO and decision-making that has surpassed 2 million views. He is also the creator and host of the hit podcast FOMO Sapiens where he talks about FOMO and entrepreneurial decision-making with leaders in business, politics, and culture, including Jay Shetty, Martha Beck, Alec Ross, Josh Peck, Ian Schrager, Gretchen Rubin, Andrew Yang, and the Founders/CEOs of companies including TOMS, Bearaby, GrubHub, ClassPass, Zola, Magic Spoon, and Hint Water. Patrick is also the author of international bestseller The 10% Entrepreneur: Live Your Startup Dream Without Quitting Your Day Job, a guide to part-time entrepreneurship that has been translated in over ten languages. He has been featured in The New York Times, Harvard Business Review, New York, Good Morning America, NBC News, Politico, The Financial Times, The Guardian, The Boston Globe, Inc, and the upcoming documentary This is Not Financial Advice.

The industrial revolution and consequent terrible labor conditions sparked a wave of revolutions in Europe, and then a string of laws and protections for workers. As author and innovation expert Alec Ross describes it, we “rewrote the social contract.” But, Ross says, we may be due for another rewrite, as we transition from an industrial economy to one based on information and knowledge. He writes in his book, “The Raging 2020s: Companies, Countries, People – And the Fight For Our Future,” that some corporations have as much power as nations, government regulation is out of date, and workers have lost staggering amounts of wealth and agency. In this talk from the Society of Fellows at the Aspen Institute, Stephanie Mehta, editor in chief of Fast Company magazine, interviews Ross, a board partner at the venture capital firm Amplo and former innovation advisor for the State Department, about what went wrong and how we get back to equilibrium.

On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we ask the question: Will the future of the United States of America look more like Star Trek or Road Warrior? With us to answer that question is Alec Ross. Alec Ross is the author of The New York Times bestseller, The Industries of the Future. And he has a brand-new bestseller out called The Raging 2020s: Companies, Countries, People and the Fight for our Future. Alec is a distinguished visiting professor at the University of Bologna business school, and he's a venture capitalist at Amplo, a global VC firm. If you have listened to our recent episode with Dr. Cedric Alexander, this dialogue will serve as a great continuation on the State of America (FYD 259), albeit from a different perspective. If you haven't, why not give it a listen as well? Alec Ross on Channeling Your Rage The conversation starts on the topic of Alec Ross' new book, The Raging 2020s. While the term “raging” often has the connotation of being good, it also can have a bad meaning. While it can denote people having a rolling good time, it can also mean anger, on the verge of violence. Which is not to say that we should always suppress our anger. For Alec, powerful emotions like that can be a huge part of the creative progress. “Figuring out how you can harness emotion, anger, volatility, and produce beautiful words, beautiful music, (and/or) beautiful oil on canvas. Also, the greatest athletes are those who know how to focus their rage.” – Alec Ross For Alec, it's all about focusing and channeling those powerful emotions into something creative or productive, rather than letting it take over your life. The Raging 2020s Exploring further into the book, Alec explains that he wrote The Raging 2020s to show in part why everybody seems so angry right now. As discussed earlier, anger and rage could be channeled into ways that it could be productive. But when the rage becomes more collective, and entire segments of society are angry, what you get is violence. “I do feel like a lot, there is rage coming right now in America, both from the parts of America that have nothing to lose, as well of those parts of America that have something to protect, and believe that they can't necessarily grow what they have.” – Alec Ross Oftentimes, this is what happens when the when there isn't a shared sense of what we can get together. For Alec, it is something both interesting yet terrifying to observe. Star Trek or Mad Max? Alec then talks about the question that is in the heart of his new book. Which is, will our future look more like Mad Max, or Star Trek? If you aren't familiar, Star Trek is set on a future where humanity has reached for the stars and enjoys continued progress and abundance. Whereas in Mad Max, we get a dystopian future with scarce resources and chaos all around. Alec says the future is entirely up to us. “The degree to which the future does look more like Star Trek or more like Mad Max, is entirely up to us. And I do think that if you have a mindset and an approach that's rooted in production and creation, as opposed to destruction, that's the beginning of any sort of progress.” – Alec Ross To hear more from Alec Ross and how the United States of America will end up in the future, download and listen to this episode.

Oct 1, 2021 Ep 367 - Will the 2020s be a decade of rage? Guest: Alec Ross Are we on the cusp of a paradigm shift? “Hopefully,'' says Alec Ross. “If we don't, the 2020s and beyond may well be known as the decade of rage.” The source of that rage is a symmetrical distribution of wealth to the rich and the rest of us. In his book, “The Raging 2020s,” Ross points out that “over the past 30 years, the top 1 percent have grown $21 trillion richer while the bottom 50 percent have grown $900 billion poorer, and the middle class has stagnated.” The source of this inequality, says Ross, is rooted in a philosophy espoused by Milton Friedman – that being “shareholder capitalism” versus “stakeholder capitalism.” According to Friedman, any company that was not maximizing profits was poorly managed. That philosophy led to wave after wave of assault on legislators in the US to loosen laws that hampered unrestricted corporate growth. As Ross points out, “Shareholder primacy melded perfectly with the Reagan and Thatcher eras, providing an intellectual cornerstone for deregulation and trickle down economics” – an economic approach that was crystallized in a line from the movie Wall Street, where the character Gordon Gekko says, “Greed is good.” Fast forward to today and the power and influence of multinational corporations goes beyond the power of the state to control them. Ross says that “the social contract has been broken” and that greed is not good – in fact, it has taken us to the brink of rage. We invited Alec Ross to join us for a Conversation That Matters about rewriting the social contract between business, governments and we, the people.

The social contract is an unwritten agreement defining the relationship among government, capital and labor. But our existing social contract was written for the Industrial Age and fails to serve the needs of everyday Americans in a digital economy. And Alec Ross contends that if we don't update our social contract, we can look forward to a Mad Max-like future characterized by growing division and rage. Alec is a distinguished professor at the University of Bologna Business School, Board Partner at Amplo VC and bestselling author of The Industries of the Future. On this episode of The Wiggin Sessions, Alec joins me to discuss his new book, The Raging 2020s: Companies, Countries, People—and the Fight for Our Future.

Listen in for Alec's prediction around the next trillion-dollar industry and learn how we might rewrite the existing social contract to restore the balance of power in America.

In the face of unprecedented global change, Alec Ross proposes a new social contract to restore the balance of power between government, citizens, and business. For 150 years, there has been a contract. Companies hold the power to shape our daily lives. The state holds the power to make them fall in line. And the people hold the power to choose their leaders. But now, this balance has shaken loose. As the market consolidates, the lines between big business and the halls of Congress have become razor-thin. Private companies have become as powerful as countries. Through interviews with the world's most influential thinkers and stories of corporate activism and malfeasance, government failure and renewal, and innovative economic and political models, Ross proposes a new social contract―one that resets the equilibrium between corporations, the governing, and the governed.

An entrepreneur working at the intersection of geopolitics, markets, and technology, Alec Ross has traversed the private and public sectors in his varied career, including a stint as Senior Advisor for Innovation in the Obama administration. In his new book, "The Raging 2020s," he looks at how we might restore the balance of power among government, citizens, and business. What Could Go Right? is produced by The Progress Network and The Podglomerate.
Getting to know, and understand the industries of the future is not only a moral imperative for anyone willing to gain or keep their relevance in an ever changing world, but also the smartest thing to do to try and catch the opportunities the not so silent technical revolution we are experiencing has has to offer, and minimize the risk of being, personally and professionally, left out.If you don't know yet how robots and automation will transform humanity, if you still look at money simply as a traditional storage of wealth, if you need to google the word Genomics when you hear it and if you think the world's economical and political power is still in the firm hands of one, maybe two, superpower, you'll benefit immensely from listening to the episode of the podcast.My guest of today, Alec Ross, is the author of the of the New York Times best-seller, The Industries of the Future which has been translated into 24 languages and been a best-seller on 4 continents. He has served as a Distinguished Senior Fellow at Johns Hopkins University and as a Senior Fellow at the Columbia University School of International & Public Affairs.During the Obama Administration, he served as Senior Advisor for Innovation to the Secretary of State, a role created for him to help modernize the practice of diplomacy and bring innovative solutions to advance America's foreign policy interests.Alec served as the Convener for the Technology & Media Policy Committee on Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign and served on the Obama-Biden Presidential Transition Team.He co-founded and helped lead a technology-focused social enterprise and grew it from modest origins in a basement into a global organization serving millions of low-income people, with programs on four continents.He is currently a Distinguished Visiting Professor at Bologna Business School of l'Universitá di Bologna at work on a book about the collision that has taken place at the intersection of government, business and citizens which will publish in 2021.
On this bonus "library" episode, you'll hear what Alec Ross -- NY Times Bestselling Author of Industries of the Future, Senior Advisor for Innovation in the State Department and former candidate for Governor of Maryland -- is reading, writing and thinking about creating next.
Observe. Take Notes. Review Your Notes. Hunt for Patterns. Share the Patterns. This is the secret of learning out loud like Alec Ross, a NY Times Bestselling Author and former candidate for governor of Maryland. Yes, Ross had a super cool and unique job: he was the former Senior Advisor for Innovation for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for the duration of her term as Secretary of State and through it traveled to every corner of the globe to learn and observe technology's impact in the Arab Spring, farming in India and natural disaster recovery in the Philippines. But he also was noting what he was seeing and looking for those patterns. Those patterns served as the basis for his book Industries of the Future, named 2016's book of the year by TriBeCa Film Festival's Disruptive Innovation Foundation. While you may not be traveling the world and meeting with global dignitaries, we all can observe what's going on in our world, take notes as to what we're seeing, review those notes and find patterns that help us understand. Then -- and this is the secret -- share what you learn for feedback and further growth. It's the power of Learning Out Loud, and all of us can unlock it by observing and hunting for patterns to share.

Our first interview of the year just might be our most important. That's because I speak with Alec Ross - a 2018 Maryland gubernatorial candidate, New York Times best selling author, tech entrepreneur and former senior advisor on Innovation, to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. This conversation is different from our previous interviews because we focus on community and other people. In particular, Alec and I talk about how we can create thriving communities that are stronger ... that lift each other up, and help everyone to thrive. When we think about how we can really improve our lives and thrive, we often look inward. But it's a real missed opportunity if we don't look outward because Other People Matter. Just about everything good we experience in life - be it at work, in our families, at school, in sports ... whatever it is, is almost always in the presence of other people. In today's episode, Alec and I discuss: The most effective habits you can adopt to cultivate a thriving community in your life Insights into why education plays such an important role in our life and well-being Great book recommendations for understanding the economy, politics, and how we can improve in our life And so much more!

The principal political binary of the past century was the political 'left versus right'. But in the 21st century the binary has shifted -- the battleground now is 'open versus closed'. Those states and societies that embrace economic, political, and cultural openness will have a better shot at competing in the software and technology-driven future, argues Alec Ross, author of the new book The Industries of the Future. Ross, who worked on the first Obama presidential campaign and was the advisor on innovation to Hillary Clinton when she was Secretary of State, joins the a16z Podcast to discuss his views on the industries (and cities) of the future, how they are playing out across a 196-country chessboard, and what we all can do to prepare ourselves and our children for what is to come.
