Rory Sutherland reveals the one £4 book from 1916 that he says is “better than Harvard Business Review.” The book - Obvious Adams by Robert Updegraff holds timeless lessons on creativity, perception, and why obvious ideas often change everything. In this clip, Rory explains why modern marketers rely too much on data, models, and metrics and not enough on human psychology. Obvious Adams reminds us that the most effective ideas are often so simple they're ignored. He connects the dots between creativity, behavioral science, and business success, showing how the best marketing isn't about algorithms or efficiency, but about noticing what everyone else overlooks. Whether you're a marketer, entrepreneur, or creative thinker, this story will change how you see “obvious” ideas forever. What's your “Obvious Adams” moment? Share it in the comments below.

As our world becomes increasingly connected, we work with teams spanning continents, cultures, and contexts. What works brilliantly in one culture can completely miss the mark in another.

What if everything you believe about workplace wellness is only part of the story? In this episode, Kevin welcomes Dr. Katina Sawyer and Dr. Patricia Grabarek to discuss the real drivers of well-being at work and the critical role leaders play in shaping thriving environments. Drawing on their research, Katina and Patricia challenge the overreliance on surface-level wellness programs and demonstrate how authentic leadership, trust, and team connection have far greater impact. They introduce the concept of "generators", leaders who energize and empower their teams and contrast them with "extinguishers," who unintentionally drain motivation and wellness. Patricia and Katina also explore ideas like authenticity within professional boundaries, person-centered leadership, and the practical importance of being a "boundary bouncer."

For business leaders, the struggle between efficiency and innovation is constant. How do businesses meet their customers' needs while also developing new and improved products and services? In the article “Why Design Thinking Works” from the September-October 2018 issue of Harvard Business Review, author Jeanne Liedtka of the University of Virginia's Darden School of Business writes “the structure of design thinking creates a natural flow from research to rollout.” She explains how this clear process helps teams break free of a variety of human tendencies that get in the way of innovation. In this episode, we bring you the narrated version of Liedtka's article.

Você já sentiu a pressão de ter que decidir quando tudo está desmoronando? Eu sim. Já vivi aquele momento pesado em que cada segundo parecia carregar o peso do mundo. Liderança sob pressão não é heroísmo; é inteligência emocional aplicada.MIT Sloan aponta: 74% dos líderes mais eficientes são aqueles que tomam decisões rápidas e firmes em crises. Harvard Business Review mostra: equipes lideradas por decisores assertivos entregam até 40% mais em situações adversas.Se a sua hesitação tem paralisado sua equipe, atenção: você está cavando o fracasso que ninguém quer assumir.

Muriel Wilkins: Leadership Unblocked Muriel Wilkins is the founder and CEO of Paravis Partners and a sought-after C-suite adviser and executive coach with a twenty-year track record of helping senior leaders take their performance to the next level. She is the coauthor of Own the Room and the host of the Harvard Business Review podcast Coaching Real Leaders. She's just released her newest book, Leadership Unblocked: Break Through the Beliefs That Limit Your Potential (Amazon, Bookshop)*. You may have spent years aiming for the leadership role you now have. But now, once you're in the job, it can be really disorienting to feel like you don't belong. In this conversation, Muriel and I explore this reality that a lot of leaders face and what do when you run into it. Key Points Feeling like you don't belong is a normal and common reality at inflection points in your career. A vicious cycle can emerge: you're waiting to be included while others are waiting for you to engage. While you can't control others, you can break the part of the pattern you have control of. Even when you believe that not belonging is triggered by sexism, racism, and ableism, it doesn't serve you to hold onto that belief. Define your value proposition. What gets missed when you don't show up? Remind yourself of shared goals or values with the group. This prevents the small stuff from distracting you as much. Identify a few supportive people and build relationships with them.

Muriel Wilkins is founder and CEO of Paravis Partners and advisor and coach to C-suite executives. She is also the author of Leadership Unblocked and host of the Harvard Business Review podcast Coaching Real Leaders.  In this episode we discuss the following: What often holds us back as leaders isn't the ability to grasp some new tactic. Rather it's the beliefs we hold about ourselves. Many of the mindsets that helped us succeed early on—like needing to be involved in every detail, always being right, or not being willing to make a mistake—can hold us back later. Overcoming our limiting beliefs starts with curiosity: noticing when we're frustrated or blocked, asking what belief might be driving that feeling, and challenging whether it's still true.

Have you ever had someone at work subtly cut you down — interrupting you, taking credit for your ideas, or making those quiet comments that leave you second-guessing yourself? You're not alone.According to a 2023 Harvard Business Review study, nearly half of professionals say they've been undermined by a coworker. And women are more likely to experience it from other women — not because women are the problem, but because competition often increases in workplaces where opportunities and recognition feel limited.In today's episode, we're going deeper into how to handle these moments with grace and authority. You'll learn three power moves that protect your peace, preserve your reputation, and keep you in control — no matter who's trying to shake your confidence.This episode builds on Episode #61, “What to Do When Staff or Coworkers Undermine You - that episode explored why undermining happens and how to recognize it early. Today, we'll go a step further with new strategies that show you exactly what to do when it happens!3 Power Moves Every Career Woman Should Know1. Name the Game, Don't Play It When someone tries to rattle you, don't react — respond strategically. Stay calm, recognize what's really happening, and redirect the conversation with confident phrases like: “I'd like to finish my point before we move on,” or “That's one perspective — here's another.”2. Reclaim the Narrative Don't let silence give others control of your story. Keep your work visible and your communication clear. Follow up in writing, document your wins, and make sure the right people know your value. 3. Guard Your Energy You don't have to fix toxic people — you just have to protect yourself. Limit interaction, focus on allies, and stay grounded in your peace. If you're navigating a situation like this and need help crafting exactly what to say, schedule a free consultation at drdawnshoptalk.com/book-online.

“You were never meant to climb that mountain alone.” - -Keisha BlairWe all face mountains — grief, loss, burnout, financial uncertainty, divorce, a toxic job, chronic illness, or invisible emotional exhaustion.

This episode is part of a new series, Jung in the World B-Sides, where we go off-road to explore the rugged psychological terrain of our current culture. This episode is part 2 of our interview with Hilde Lynn Helphenstein. Part 1 "Know thyself"—from Socrates to Shakespeare, this wisdom echoed across centuries. But the digital age is turning it inside out. As online influencers rise to fame, persona is overtaking the self. The obsession with self-representation has eclipsed the drive to be true to oneself. What does it mean to live your life as someone else? In this two-part interview, host Patricia Martin talks with the infamous Jerry Gogosian—real name Hilde Helphenstein—about the hidden psychological costs of her seven-year experiment living as her persona and how she clawed her identity back. Watch the video of this interview: https://youtu.be/_EQMW6FI_Sw Hilde Lynn Helphenstein is a visual artist, digital storyteller, and the creative mind behind @jerrygogosian, a popular satirical Instagram meme account that critiques and comments on the global art world through viral images, videos and text pieces.

Friday October 17, 2025: In this episode of Future Ready Today... The Wall Street Journal reports that SHRM's invitation to anti-DEI speaker Robby Starbuck triggered outrage across HR circles. Jacob explains why boycotting the event might reveal more about HR's fragility than its values. Then, a Times of India report shows nearly half of U.S. employees are secretly using AI tools at work — a growing “shadow AI” movement that exposes weak leadership and poor communication. Reuters highlights how Citigroup's AI copilots now save 100,000 hours per week, while Unleash.ai and Gallup reveal deep workforce divides: only one in three workers feel future-ready and just 40% have a “quality job.” Finally, HR Canada Magazine finds that Gen Z workers feel more comfortable talking to ChatGPT than coworkers — and Harvard Business Review questions if CHROs should abandon performance improvement plans. Each story uncovers one truth: the future belongs to leaders who can handle discomfort, embrace AI, and rebuild trust in the workplace. Get my new book here: 8EXLaws.com

We're celebrating something BIG today… Episode 180 of Organizing with Ease!  When I first started this podcast, it was co-hosted — just two women, two mics, and a lot of coffee. Then life shifted, and I had to decide: stop or keep going solo. And I chose to keep going, little by little. Week after week, step by step, here we are — 180 episodes later. And that's exactly what this milestone episode is all about: how to keep making progress when life feels full. Because let's be honest — October is busy. School, sports, deadlines, and holidays creeping closer. And the temptation is to say, “I'll wait for the perfect time.” But as research, real-life stories, and even some funny sayings remind us — progress doesn't come from giant leaps. It comes from small, consistent steps. In this episode, you'll learn: Why small, daily actions matter more than rare, giant efforts. What the Harvard Business Review and Stanford research say about the power of “little by little.” Why the Mayo Clinic believes daily low-intensity actions reduce stress better than bursts of effort. Client stories about garages, photos, and yes… even junk drawers, all transformed in just minutes a day. The quotes that keep me grounded, like: “A year from now, you'll wish you had started today.” – Karen Lamb “Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.” – Vincent Van Gogh “Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go.” – Unknown By the end of this episode, you'll be ready to identify one area in your home or life to tackle in just 10 minutes a day — and you'll see how powerful that can be. ✨ Your October Challenge Calendar To make this fun and doable, I've created a free October Challenge Calendar you can download right now.

"Know thyself"—from Socrates to Shakespeare, this wisdom echoed across centuries. But the digital age is turning it inside out. As online influencers rise to fame, persona is overtaking the self.

Vanessa Druskat: The Emotionally Intelligent Team Vanessa Druskat is an associate professor at the Peter T. Paul College of Business and Economics at the University of New Hampshire. She advises leaders and teams at over a dozen Fortune 500 and Fortune Global 500 companies and wrote the best-selling Harvard Business Review article (with S. Wolff) on emotionally intelligent teams that has been chosen many times for inclusion in HBR's most valued articles. She is the author of The Emotionally Intelligent Team: Building Collaborative Groups that Outperform the Rest (Amazon, Bookshop)*. It's easy to assume that a good start for a great team is getting the smartest people together. That does help, but it's not the critical factor in whether a team performs. In this conversation, Vanessa and I discuss why the word belonging makes such a difference. Key Points Raw talent of the individual and their own interpersonal skills don't predict team performance. Belonging is critical for team performance. Leaders often miss this because they already feel like they belong. Team members understanding each other is the first and most critical norm. Beginning meetings with check-ins or gallery walks helps people understand each other, even if it's not discussed extensively. Inviting people to bring everyday objects to illustrate a more complex point helps make understanding accessible. The leader sets the tone, but it's the interaction between team members that makes the difference.

Judd Kessler is a Professor of Business Economics and Public Policy at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. A leading scholar of market design, he was named one of Forbes' 30 Under 30 for his groundbreaking work on organ allocation and received the Vernon L. Smith Ascending Scholar Prize for his pioneering research. His insights have been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Harvard Business Review, and on Hidden Brain and Freakonomics. With degrees from Harvard and Cambridge, Judd studies the hidden markets that shape our lives and how we can navigate them more effectively. He is also the author of the book, Lucky be Design. In this episode we discuss the following: The most common way to allocate scarce resources is through pricing. But other mechanisms exist: hidden markets. And by staying alert for these hidden markets, we can increase our luck. One of the most common hidden markets is the race: first come, first serve. In Judd's case, when he realized that demand was going to outstrip supply for his child's after school program, he recognized he was in a race, so he made sure to sign up right when registration opened. And he increased his luck. The lottery is another hidden market. If four friends wanted to attend Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, they increase their luck by each entering the lottery for four tickets each. Hunters increase their luck by entering the lottery in years when they're not able to hunt. And people needing organ transplants increase their luck when they sign up through multiple transplant centers.  To get lucky in the dating app world, people can signal that they are worth investing in.  And then I loved Judd's insight on settling for silver. Whether we're trying to get lucky in college admissions, with restaurant reservations, or even in the dating market, we can increase our luck by pursuing a more attainable, less competitive option. And in many cases the silver turns out to be more desirable than the gold.

AI slop is pointless content shared online like fake images and videos. A new study in the Harvard Business Review wants us to consider a variant: “workslop,” or AI-generated reports, emails and more that are sloppily crafted.The authors of the study say 40% of workers they surveyed have encountered workslop. And that's costing time and money. Marketplace's Nova Safo spoke with social psychologist and vice president of BetterUp Labs Kate Niederhoffer, who co-authored the study. She said workslop harms interpersonal work relationships, such as when one employee receives an AI written report from another.

Not knowing the answer can feel unsettling, but what if uncertainty was actually something to embrace? In this episode, Michael sits down with Elizabeth Weingarten to explore that idea. Elizabeth, whose work spans top publications and research programs, shares insights from her book How to Fall in Love with Questions: A New Way to Thrive in Times of Uncertainty. Their conversation unpacks why we often resist uncertainty and how curiosity, community, and authenticity can transform the way we approach life's biggest unknowns. She also reflects on the role of genuine self-expression in relationships, inviting listeners to see how asking better questions might open the door to a more fulfilling life.Listen and Learn: Why certain uncertainties unsettle us most, and how our brains and biology shape our struggle to live with the unknownElizabeth's powerful "question tree" metaphor that categorizes the types of questions we ask in life, from quick-answer "peach" questions to lifelong "heartwood" questions, and how letting go of "dead leaf" questions helps us growHow our search for quick answers can keep us stuck in uncertainty—and why learning to sit with unanswerable questions and ask better ones is key to real growth and self-understandingEmbracing open-ended questions instead of binary ones for deeper self-understanding, growth, and freedom from the need for controlWhat it truly means to “live” and “love” life's big questions, moving beyond the shallow advice to “embrace uncertainty” and instead learning how our questions can guide growth, clarity, and connection to our future selvesRecognizing and refining the right questions in your life, ones that lead you back to your values, open new possibilities, and move you forward instead of getting stuck in fear, “shoulds,” or ruminationResources: Elizabeth's Book, How to Fall in Love with Questions: A New Way to Thrive in Times of Uncertainty: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780063335134Elizabeth's Website: www.elizabethweingarten.comElizabeth's Substack: Time Travel for BeginnersYael's Article: How Practical Wisdom Helps Us Cope with Radical Uncertainty (By Yael Schonbrun and Barry Schwartz)About Elizabeth WeingartenElizabeth Weingarten is a journalist and applied behavioral scientist who works at the intersection of science and storytelling.
