Order our new book, The Score That Matters, now! https://amzn.to/41zFYku Full show notes at www.LearningLeader.com Commonalities of leaders who sustain excellence: Curiosity (ask lots of questions) Willingness to try something new Compassion - Assume you don't know others' struggles Bob worked with Ed Catmull (Pixar) He was one of the best at combining curiosity, willingness to try new things, and having compassion for people Good Boss vs. Bad Boss Good bosses ask lots of questions and then make the call (John Hennessey, Stanford President) The Jumbo Grocery Stores in Holland created “slow lanes” for those who wanted to talk… They didn't want efficiency or speed, they wanted a conversation. It's a good reminder that sometimes we should slow down and enjoy our surroundings and the people we're with… Curiosity and Compassion are skills we can build. Take the experiment where they counted the number of questions versus statements and your talking time. Surround yourself with people who will give you direct feedback about your level of curiosity and compassion… When conversing with someone else, how often are you asking questions versus talking about yourself? Think about that… It's not always right to be efficient… Bob shared the Jerry Seinfeld story… The network was considering bringing in McKinsey to help Jerry become more efficient when making his show. He asked, “Are they funny?” They said, no that's not what they do. And he said, “Then I don't need them.” It's not always supposed to be efficient. Sometimes, the hard way is the right way… To get the best result, it usually is. Some things Bob believes (we should all post an essay about what we believe): Indifference is as important as passion. The best leaders know what it feels like to work for them. They overcome the urge to focus attention on powerful superiors rather than their followers The best leaders think and act as trustees of their employees' and customers' time. They are "friction fixers" who hold themselves and others responsible for making the right things easier and the wrong things harder. That might mean, for example, reducing friction by eliminating and revamping meetings. "Am I a success or a failure?" is not useful. It is better to ask “What am I learning.” Noam Bardin (from Waze) Laszlo Bock - For hiring, "If you need to interview someone more than 4 times, then you must get written approval." This helped speed up the process. One of the roles of the leader is to be the editor-in-chief. Great leaders are great communicators. You must become a good writer and speaker if you want to lead. Life/Career advice: Seek variation each day A chief of staff job could lead to big things (if you work for the right person) Be kind

Discover where John Hennessey (CEO of multiple Hennessey companies) finds great employees, why he went from race car driving to driving a business, and when he realized the importance of providing entertainment (14 minutes). CEO BLINDSPOTS PODCAST GUEST: John Hennessey. He is the founder & CEO of Hennessey Special Vehicles, Hennessey Performance, Tuner School, and Lonestar Motorsports Park. Born with a passion for speed and fast cars, John found early racing success behind the wheel of a modified Mitsubishi 3000GT at events such as the Pikes Peak Hill Climb and the Silver State Classic. Hennessey even set a world speed record in his class at the Bonneville Salt Flats. Fueled by his passion for racing, horsepower, and speed, John began modifying imports out of his garage in 1991 – it wasn't long before his 1,000-hp twin-turbocharged Dodge Vipers were getting international attention in celebrated automotive publications such as Motor Trend, Car and Driver, Top Gear, and Road & Track. John quickly opened a dedicated performance shop, which grew to be one of the largest independent automotive tuners in the world. Hennessey became a name synonymous with performance – “the American icon of speed and the open road” – and the company's vehicles were being offered and sold to a global market. By the numbers, more than 10,000 specialty vehicles, including mid-engine supercars, six-wheeled supertrucks, and modern muscle cars have been improved with Hennessey performance modifications. Still operating at full throttle, John founded Hennessey Special Vehicles in 2017 with the mission of designing, engineering, and manufacturing the world's fastest cars. The company's first project, the Venom F5 – a bona fide 300+ mph hypercar – started customer deliveries in 2021. Today, the Hennessey facilities in Texas include a large manufacturing plant and a dedicated test track – where vehicles may be tested at speeds of up to 150 mph. Tuner School, the only teaching institution of its kind, offers the next generation of automotive enthusiasts hands-on education to the art of making vehicles faster. In addition, John recently announced his "Project Deep Space" plans to make the world's first luxury electric car that is a 6-wheel drive where the driver is in the center of the car and the rear offers lie-flat seating, all inspired by private-jet class lavishness John, his wife Hope, and their five children live in Houston, Texas.

Gov. Madeleine Kunin is an open book. Vermont's only female governor has been chronicling her life in books since the mid-1990s, when she penned a memoir, Living a Political Life. Since serving as Vermont's governor from 1985 to 1991, Kunin went on to jobs as deputy secretary of education and ambassador to Switzerland. Along the way she has been sharing her insights about women and leadership in other books, including Pearls, Politics and Power and The New Feminist Agenda. Kunin has lately turned her focus back to her own life. In Coming of Age: My Journey to the Eighties, Kunin, 87, offers an intimate personal narrative of growing older. She has a new book of poetry, Red Kite, Blue Sky, in which she chronicles her experience of love, loss and loneliness in the aftermath of the 2018 death of her husband, John Hennessey, Jr., and after enduring a year of Covid-19 isolation. Kunin continues to be active in politics as the founder of the Vermont chapter of Emerge, which trains Democratic women to run for office. The former governor periodically testifies in the Vermont Legislature and remains a keen observer of politics, penning regular columns for VTDigger. “We have to be vigilant to protect our democracy and to push back,” Kunin says about threats to democratic institutions from President Trump and his supporters. “That's all the more reason for people to enter politics. We have to have voices who will speak out and speak the truth.”

Charlie Eklund moved down to Houston, TX to attend Tuner School in 2017. The people at Hennessey Performance saw something special in Charlie and offered him a job in the admissions department for the school. Since then, Charlie has been the face of Tuner School to narrow down the applicants and help them get jobs after graduation. To further help them out, Charlie helps students find part time jobs while taking classes and they even offer a house where the students can rent a room and not have to worry about furniture. John Hennessey started Tuner School because he was getting multiple inquiries on how to work on cars and tune them. So, he just decided to meet that specific need and develop a curriculum with various industry experts. The classes are capped at 15 students to focus on providing the best education possible.

Japans supersnabba väg till världsmakt var inte bara ett resultat av att landet imiterade västmakterna, lika ofta var det Japan som inspirerade Europas stormakter visar ny forskning. På bara ett halvsekel gick Japan från att vara ett av världens mest slutna länder till att bli en respekterad stormakt med koloniala ambitioner. Ny forskning av historikern John Hennessey visar att det japanska undret inte bara berodde på efterapning och kopierande av västmakter, utan att Japan tidigt blev en medspelare på samma planhalva som Europa och USA. Ett av verktygen för den japanska kolonialismen var tidens stora världsutställningar platser där erövrade folk skulle visas upp, men också den japanska konsten och kulturen. Hur detta inspirerade Europa, och inte minst konstnärerna i värmländska Rackstadgruppen visas nu på Thielska galleriet i Stockholm. Dessutom författaren Maja Hagermans kommentar till den pågående utredningen av rasbiologiska undersökningar av tornedalingar, samt veckans lyssnarfråga om Gustav V:s historiska eftermäle. Programledare är Tobias Svanelid.
Vad karakteriserar japansk kolonialism? Hur förhöll den sig till andra kolonialmakters aktiviteter. I detta avsnitt av humpodd samtalar Corina Löwe och Jonas Svensson med den nyblivna doktorn i historia, John Hennessey. Det blir en del fördomar som raseras, och mycket nytt och okänt som lyssnaren får sig till livs. En del av samtalet rör en bild … Fortsätt läsa Japansk kolonialism
Dagens podd handlar om Japans roll som kolonialmakt och det som skedde i Bortre Asien under senare delen av 1800-talet och första decennierna under 1900-talet. Asien var en veritabel guldgruva som lockade de europeiska stormakterna. Men också Japan såg möjligheterna att expandera sina intressen. Det handlade om att utöka sitt territorium - Japan var ganska trångbott redan på den tiden - och om att säkra råvaror. Podden har träffat forskaren John Hennessey vid Linneuniversitetet i Växjö. Han har just lagt fram sin avhandling där han studerat kolonialmakten Japan.
