“You have to be really agile and flexible, but also really stubborn about the problems you're going to solve,” says Alan Chiu, co-founder of Boba and its contributing company Enya.ai, about the dual attributes successful founders must possess. Blockchain technology, similarly, is a balance of traits. On one hand, it  offers a number of opportunities. The open source format and permissionless entree allow people who might otherwise be hindered by their geographical location, race, gender access to a business's information. This transparency has the potential to decentralize power, and form a system of checks and balances that keep everyone more honest. However, this type of demand on the system leads to slower performance and higher costs. This is where Boba comes in, as it's the only blockchain platform that takes advantage of blockchain's features while utilizing the sustainability of Web 2 infrastructure.  Alan discusses how the blockchain model makes money, how to identify the right time to execute on a plan. He talks about the most difficult aspect of scaling and how he approaches risk. First and foremost you must evaluate the founders when deciding to invest in companies, and that those founders must have a balance of strong convictions and openness to new ideas and methods.  Continuing the theme of balance, Alan discusses how he manages both the longterm and shortterm goals of his team. He gives his thoughts on the most common mistakes founders make when starting a company, and the most common reason they fail to scale.  Quotes: “If these cryptocurrencies increase in value, you are starting to build a pretty interesting portfolio without being subject to biases against age, gender, ethnicity, geographical location. And that's really powerful. This is the type of opportunity that used to be reserved for Silicon Valley engineers. Now anyone in the world can have access to. (9:05-9:29 | Alan) “The reason blockchains are always going to be much slower than a traditional web two infrastructure like AWS is because there's a cost to synchronizing all of these mills that the mega blockchain network with these centralized, the decentralized nature of blockchains is both a feature but also puts a limit on how many transactions you can do per unit time.” (13:26-13:47 | Alan) For any disruptive technology, in the early days, it's really hard to come up with something quantifiable and justify that with data, because everything is so new. (17:48-18:01 | Alan) “One of the most difficult aspects of being a founder is, on one hand, you've got to have strong conviction around your vision because there's going to be a lot of headwind and a lot of uncertainty, if you don't have strong conviction, it's really hard to sustain. On the other hand, you've got to be really open to advice and feedback, especially feedback from customers, whether they want what you're building or not. You're learning and adapting and changing to your customer feedback, and also to a changing competitive landscape and market dynamics and new technologies that continue to evolve.” (20:47-21:20 | Alan)  “Sometimes the best path forward is actually not commercializing the innovation itself. But finding some application for the innovation in a product or service. And commercializing that instead, and using the core innovation as a creative driver of a competitive advantage.” (52:01-53:01 | Alan) Links: Connect with Brendan Dell: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brendandell/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/BrendanDell Instagram: @thebrendandellTikTok: @brendandell39 Buy a copy of Brendan's Book, The 12 Immutable Laws of High-Impact Messaging: https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780578210926  Connect with Alan Chiu:Twitter:@alanchiuhttps://www.enya.ai/Check out Alan Chiu's recommended books:   Connect: Exceptional Relationships with Family, Friends and Colleagues https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780593237090   The Art of Possibility: Transforming Professional and Personal Life by Rosamund Stone Zander and Benjamin Zander https://www.indiebound.org/book/9780142001103   The Inner Voice of Love: A Journey Through Anguish to Freedom by Henri J.M.

Somen « Steve » Banerjee ne rêve que d'une chose : accomplir le rêve américain et que ses parents indiens soient fiers de lui. Il a de grands projets, son amour pour l'élégance à l'américaine le pousse à ouvrir un club de backgammon (oui, le jeu) de haut standing. Bientôt, il réalise que ce n'est pas ce concept qui va lui rapporter de l'argent mais plutôt un club de danseurs qui se dénudent pour les beaux yeux d'une clientèle féminine. Après Pam & Tommy, Robert Siegel sort un nouveau titre pour Hulu. Welcome to Chippendales est disponible à partir du 11 janvier sur Disney+. https://youtu.be/z-2ndEHoT88 Cette histoire vraie est donc inspirée de Somen Banerjee, un immigré indien qui voulait gravir l'échelle de l'ascension sociale dans les années 80. Kumail Nanjiani a pris un tournant dans sa carrière après avoir tâté des rôles comiques dans Silicon Valley, le voici en plein essor en jouant des personnages plus dramatiques. Son Banerjee ambitieux qui manque un peu de confiance en lui à cause de ses origines mais doué d'une fibre pour les affaires, sait montrer sa vulnérabilité mais également sa jalousie. Il trouve l'amour en la personne d'Irene (Annaleigh Ashford) et fait preuve d'impulsivité, de stratagème tout en ses montrant impitoyable. Mais ce qu'il manquait à son Chippendales avant de devenir culte, c'est l'élément Nick De Noia (sous les traits de Murray Bartlett). Le vrai chorégraphe nommé aux Emmy Awards sur le déclin va regagner en popularité en prenant en charge la direction artistique du club et préparera des chorégraphies inoubliables. Mention spéciale à Bartlett qui depuis le reboot des Chroniques de San Francisco se retrouve vraiment partout de The White Lotus à Physical avec son charisme à toute épreuve et intemporel. D'ailleurs, en tant qu'acteur ouvertement homosexuel ce nouveau souffle dans sa carrière s'est traduit par uniquement des rôles gays, et à la question de savoir s'il s'agissait d'un choix conscient de sa part, il répond qu'il connait la symbolique et la responsabilité d'avoir un véritable acteur gay qui campe ces rôles, mais ce n'est pas pour autant qu'il ne choisira que des personnages de cette orientation et que ces derniers castings n'étaient qu'un hasard. À partir de là, une rivalité entre les deux hommes va naître car Nick De Noia va apparaître sous les feux des projecteurs comme le fondateur de Chippendales alors que Banerjee attend cette reconnaissance depuis des décennies. Des affaires pas toujours très nettes, du racisme latent, des problématiques d'immigré, des danses m'as-tu vu qui ne déçoivent pas, un drame à la hauteur de la folie des grandeurs de son héros : la série est finalement moins provoc que Pam & Tommy mais semble plus chargée d'enjeux pour ses protagonistes. Ce ne serait pas un fait divers intéressant s'il n'y avait pas la chute de l'histoire, et elle est assez imprévisible exacerbée par la paranoïa grandissante de Banerjee. La nostalgie est bel et bien présente, avec des hits musicaux sur lesquels ses danseurs Chippendales performent tout comme les costumes de l'époque (dont le fameux uniforme nœud pap' et manchettes des employés ainsi que les pantalons velcro qui s'arrachent). Ce biopic pourrait en intéresser plus d'un·e et on se surprendra à attendre l'épisode suivant avec impatience. [bs_show url="immigrant"] Retrouvez Welcome to Chippendales sur Disney+.

Isaac Asimov was one of the most prolific authors in history. He was best known as a pathbreaking sci-fi writer, but his more than 500 books also included volumes on the Greeks, the Romans, Shakespeare, the Bible, and much more. He was one of the most learned men in history.  But in 1935, 15-year-old Asimov was rejected by Columbia University. Admissions officials instead directed him to Seth Low Junior College, a separate campus in Brooklyn, 11 miles from Columbia's Morningside Heights campus.  What was Seth Low Junior College, and why was the brilliant Isaac Asimov sent there instead? Seth Low Junior College, which existed from 1928 to 1938, was one of Columbia's many attempts to deal with a changing student population that they felt was contaminating its pristine, Protestant campus. And it's part of the bigger story of how the Ivy League resistance to outsiders shaped all of higher education as we know it.  In the first episode of Gatecrashers, a new podcast from Tablet Studios, you'll hear about the lengths Columbia went to in order to limit the number of Jewish students. The invention of the college application itself, the admissions interview, the push for geographical diversity, and more—all elements of the college admissions process as we know it today—trace back to Columbia's effort to keep out the Jews. You'll hear from NPR's Robert Siegel, former Columbia College Dean Robert Pollack, historian Robert McCaughey, sci-fi scholar Alfred Guy, and Dr. Leeza Hirt, whose undergraduate reporting unearthed the history of Seth Low Junior College.

Writer and Producer Jenni Konner grew up in California in a family who is “in the business”, but has made and continues to make her mark on television by writing and producing the most modernistic material that speaks to our times. The one-time partner of Lena Dunham is known for her slice-of-life stories, wit and knowledge of people, ability to identify personality types, and crafting characters across generations. Creating culture-influencing television with Girls, Konner continues to do something special with Freeform's Single Drunk Female, a fresh take on the rocky road to sobriety, one that is peppered with humor and filled with captivating characters---this time in suburban Boston--- that pop off the screen. On episode 104, Jenni traces her childhood, college years, and career path. We get a peek into her working relationships with her most creative collaborators---such as Dunham, Judd Apatow, Adam Driver, and producer Ilene Landress. We dissect the Girls experience and what came after, including her writing and directing HBO limited series, Camping. She tells us why former restaurant employees make the best crew members, talks intimately about the habits of writers, her affinity for working with actors, the importance of and continued lack of diverse stories, bringing back hard comedy, and how having a singular voice makes for a great writer. We talk what's next, including her upcoming project, Hulu's Immigrant starring Kumail Nanjiani, written and co-executive produced by Pam + Tommy creator, Robert Siegel. Jenni describes the vibe at Jenni Konner Productions, her editing process, and her expert opinion on creative partnerships. We get her take on today's television, on Gen Z, on how she chooses what to work on, and why she isn't a micromanager. Listen in for a lot of reminiscing about pop culture, about Lennyletter, and the times when there were temps. We get into a slew of her favorite things from her go-to cookbook author, workout, and glasses, to the hilarious (love-hate relationship with) her Oura ring, all that you can discover and shop here:Freeform's Single Drunk FemaleHBO's GirlsCaddis Miklos reading glassesMille clothingCarla Lalli Music's cookbook That Sounds So Good: 100 Real-Life Recipes for Every Day of the WeekCarla Lalli Music's cookbook Where Cooking Begins: Uncomplicated Recipes to Make You a Great CookTracy Anderson workoutsIrene Neuwirth jewelry 

How do you develop products differently in the future? How do you organize your companies differently? What are the skill sets required of the leaders who will be taking organizations forward? According to Robert Siegel, digitization is like breathing, every company is going to have to increasingly integrate it in everything they do. Robert Siegel is a lecturer at Stanford GSB also a venture capitalist with Piva and Xseed Ventures, and also the author of “The Brains and Brawn Company: How Leading Organizations Blend the Best of Digital and Physical.”This episode covers physical v digital companies, information flows, Tesla, Warby Parker, and training the next great systems leaders. Episode Quotes:Consumer trust & data usage:I remember talking to Walt Bettinger, he's the CEO of Schwab. In the 90 minutes I interviewed him the first time, he must've used the word “trust” 180 times in those 90 minutes, and talking about the importance of that. And one example that they give, is that if a Schwab customer logs into their Schwab account and clicks on “life events'' and then clicks on “divorce.” Schwab may know at a moment in time what's happening with that customer and might even know before the spouse does. And one of the things that Schwab asked themselves, or the first thing they ask themselves is through the client's eyes, what would our customers want us to do with this data? So it's not just that you have data and that you gather data and collect data, but do you use it intelligently and in a way that your customers are pleased and that they will say, I trust this company, I want to continue to engage with them and continue to work with them.Great systems leaders:You have to be able to operate both globally and locally. You have to know how to build platforms that can scale and operate globally, but how your platforms can be customized for local markets.Training future leaders:I hope that we at the business schools are doing a better job of training them not just in finance and marketing and digitization and strategy and all the things that you and I teach them, product management. But also to be thinking more broadly about issues around - what are the implications of these new services and products that we create? What does that mean to communities? What does it mean to their countries? What does it mean to international global conflict? And being aware of these kinds of issues.Show Links:Guest Profile:Faculty Profile at Stanford Graduate School of BusinessProfessional Profile at XSeed CapitalRobert Siegel on LinkedinRobert Siegel on TwitterHis Work:Robert Siegel on MediumThe Brains and Brawn Company: How Leading Organizations Blend the Best of Digital and Physical

Understanding the business - the foundation of the business was not food. It was real estate.4.

On this week's Tech Nation, Moira speaks with ROBERT SIEGEL, Venture Investor and Stanford University Lecturer, and the Author of “The Brains and Brawn Company … How Leading Organizations blend the best of Digital and Physical.” Then, intervening with “cytokine storms”. JIM JOYCE, the CEO of San Diego's Sigyn Therapeutics talks about their progress to intervening quickly.

All digital, all the time - that's what we hear among the chattering business classes. My guest begs to differ. Instead, Robert E. Siegel points out, the competitors who will triumph combine both "Brains" (digital, smarts) with "Brawn" (operations and execution). Just one or the other won't cut it. Indeed, incumbents have shown that they can win by leveraging traditional strengths even as they bring on new capabilities. This should be fascinating.

Long-time journalist and host of National Public Radio's All Things Considered Robert Siegel retired last week. Robert was the man who first brought the Reduced Shakespeare Company on to the NPR airwaves in 1994 and introduced us to the largest American audience we'd ever had up to that point. To celebrate his retirement, we offer the very first interview we did with Robert on All Things Considered, from June 23, 1994, during which we talk about and perform excerpts from The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), followed by our second interview with Robert, from July 31, 1995, in which we discuss and perform bits from what was then our brand-new show The Bible: The Complete Word of God (abridged). Featuring impossibly young voices, zippy tempos, wobbly-sounding keyboards, brief excerpts from our BBC World Service program The Reduced Shakespeare Radio Show, unaired outtakes from a piece we produced for NPR's "In Character" series, and gratitude to a great journalist, network-builder, and friend. #ThanksRobert (Length 27:07)
