Parker Bio: Geoff Parker is a professor of engineering at the Thayer School at Dartmouth College and the faculty director at the Irving Institute for Energy and Society. He was awarded the Thinkers50 digital thinking award for his work on two-sided markets and the inverted firm. He is the co-author of the influential book Platform Revolution. He received his doctorate from MIT, where he was a doctoral student alongside Marshall Van Alstyne. Summary: In this episode, Geoff, a leading expert in platform research and co-author of Platform Revolution, discusses the origins of his work on platforms, the evolution of platform business models, and the ongoing relevance of platform thinking in today's dynamic technological and regulatory landscape. The conversation traces the journey from early observations of free online services and the formalization of two-sided markets to the strategic implications of platforms and their impact across various industries, including B2B and energy. Geoff reflects on the initial skepticism surrounding platform theory, the significant effect of Platform Revolution, and his current work exploring platform dynamics in specific sectors. The discussion also touches upon the challenges faced by established firms in transitioning to platform models and the influence of emerging technologies and regulations on the platform ecosystem. Key Discussion Points The genesis of platform research: Stemming from observations of ad-sponsored networks and the emergence of free online services during the dot-com boom, leading to the formal study of two-sided markets and network effects. Early challenges in platform theory: The initial uphill battle to get foundational work on platforms published. The evolution of platform thinking: How the understanding of platforms has been shaped by events like the dot-com bust and the rise of tech giants. Strategic implications: The development of concepts like platform envelopment and the broader strategic considerations for businesses adopting platform models. The impact of regulation and new technologies: The influence of regulations like GDPR and CCPA, the increasing power of platforms, and the emergence of AI and blockchain on platform strategies. Challenges and opportunities in B2B platforms: The complexities of network effects, sales cycles, core transactions, and integration challenges in B2B contexts.

That beautiful leather-bound journal you bought with the best intentions? The one now gathering dust under a pile of books? You're not alone. After 40 years of failed journaling attempts, Michael Bungay Stanier finally cracked the code to sustainable reflection—and it's likely nothing like what you've tried before. Michael is the author behind the Wall Street Journal bestseller The Coaching Habit (which Brené Brown called "a classic"), with over 1.5 million books sold worldwide. Named the #1 Thought Leader in Coaching by Thinkers50, his insights have been featured in Harvard Business Review, Forbes, and Fast Company. In this conversation, Michael shares: His surprisingly simple journaling breakthrough that eliminates the most common barriers to consistency A powerful weekly reflection framework that drives tangible results (not just empty introspection) The counterintuitive boundary system he uses to prevent work overload while maximizing impact Why he rejects popular "word of the year" goal-setting (and what he does instead) Whether you're a serial journal abandoner or simply seeking more intentional reflection practices, Michael's practical approach offers a refreshing alternative to traditional journaling methods that actually sticks. Key Quotes: “One thing that is really helpful is just to know I don’t have to say yes right away.” “I have failed to successfully journal since I was 16. I’m now 57, so I’ve been attempting to journal for 40 years.” “If you just start asking yourself what you want day in and day out it just starts forcing a deep clarity.” Connect with Michael via his website, Instagram, LinkedIn, or buy the Do Something That Matters Journal.

There is a clear Cold War between the US and China, but it differs from the one between the US and the Soviet Union and is «far more dangerous». The warning is given by Anil Gupta, the renowned expert on globalization, emerging markets and innovation, who guarantees that China is not, in economic terms, a «pygmy» like the Soviet power was compared to the American «giant». Analysing what the specialist considers to be «the biggest geopolitical issue of our time», the expert argues that China is a «technological, industrial, economic and military power», pointing out that the relationship with the US is not really improving. In addition to the clash between superpowers, Anil Gupta says that «the growth of emerging markets» has also fuelled geopolitical tensions. While in 2000 there were 20 emerging economies, today their number has more than doubled. And the growth of these economies is expected to remain stable over the next few years, emphasizes the expert. This means that the emerging markets - China and India, but also Indonesia, Brazil and Nigeria - are becoming not only important in economic terms but also in political terms. Rated by Thinkers50 as «one of the world's most influential management thinkers», Anil Gupta recalls the risk associated with supply chains, which the pandemic has already highlighted. The case of medical equipment used in the US is paradigmatic. Over the last 20 years, most of the gloves used by US surgeons have come from China. ‘In the event of a conflict with China, ‘would the US want to be dependent on such a simple item?'. A positive aspect of globalization is technology. In this interview, Gupta considers that ‘Artificial Intelligence is the most powerful technology that mankind has ever invented'. But he reminds us of the risks associated with it in the long term. «In 50 years, will AI treat humans the way we treat ants today?».

This is the last and amongst the liveliest of my interviews at Munich's DLD Conference this year. An old friend who has appeared on KEEN ON several times before, Andrew McAfee is a MIT professor who co-wrote the 2014 classic The Second Machine Age. In our conversation, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the DLD Conference, McAfee reflects on the technological changes of the past 20 years,. He acknowledges that while he accurately predicted the broad trajectory of technological advancement, he underestimated AI's capabilities in areas like language processing and creative tasks. McAfee discusses the emergence of deep learning around 2012 and its evolution into today's generative AI. While maintaining overall optimism about technology's impact, he expresses concern about increasing social polarization and anxiety, particularly related to social media use, though he notes these trends actually preceded current technology. On economic matters, McAfee challenges the notion that tech innovation is stagnating, pointing to newcomers like Nvidia and OpenAI as evidence of continued inventive dynamism. He discusses Europe's technological lag behind the United States, citing regulatory challenges like GDPR as potential factors. Regarding climate change, McAfee believes technological solutions, particularly nuclear fusion, could address environmental challenges, though he acknowledges the severity of the crisis. He concludes by warning how traditional companies must adapt to survive in an era of rapid technological change, particularly facing competition from more agile, tech-savvy competitors.Andrew McAfee (@amcafee) is a Principal Research Scientist at the MIT Sloan School of Management, co-founder and co-director of MIT's Initiative on the Digital Economy, and the inaugural Visiting Fellow at the Technology and Society organization at Google.

While the spotlight often shines on grand achievements in today's workplace, it's the smaller, day-to-day objectives that truly pave the way to success. These "micro-ambitions" represent the careful and strategic planning behind the making of a champion.Anders Indset—known as “The Business Philosopher”—is an internationally acclaimed keynote speaker, Norwegian-born author, deep-tech investor, and former elite athlete. Recognized by Thinkers50 as one of the most influential thinkers in technology and leadership for the coming years, he serves as a trusted sparring partner and advisor to global leaders and top executives. With his deep understanding of the implications of exponential technologies, Anders demonstrates how and why leadership and its relation to philosophy are becoming more relevant than ever. He strongly believes that in a world where everyone has almost infinite access to knowledge, deeper understanding and the ability to anticipate future scenarios become the most needed skills for executives, alongside developing interpersonal skills.In his new book, The Viking Code (Wiley, September 2024), Anders reveals the secrets of Norwegian success in sports and beyond while redefining what it means to perform and succeed. By studying Norwegian success we can develop a new performance culture that is based on fun and positivity and deeply rooted in values. Anders Indset impressively shows what leaders in business, as well as society as a whole, can learn from the Viking Code, and vividly illustrates how a new, value-based performance culture can become a reality.Send us a textThe Family Room Wellness AssociatesOnline Therapy and Coaching with Jason Wasser, LMFTCheck out our guests books!Want to learn more from our guests and also see what products I suggest?Exercise Safely When It's Dark Out!Noxgear - Advanced Visibility and Safety Gear for Runners & CyclistsWasser's FurnitureHighlighting what's great about buying your furniture from a brick and mortar family business!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

From Situational Leadership to Coaching Titans Marshall shares the pivotal moments that launched his career in leadership coaching. From collaborating with Paul Hersey on Situational Leadership to developing his revolutionary coaching model, Marshall shares how aligning his methods with results-driven outcomes has shaped his approach. “I always get paid after the results. This keeps the focus where it belongs—on the client's success, not mine.” Counterintuitive Lessons in Leadership Winning too much, overcompetitiveness, and making coaching about the leader instead of the team—Marshall uncovers the surprising obstacles that hold even top leaders back. He highlights the importance of working with great people and the discipline to focus on their growth over personal validation. And Marshall shares an insight that is critical for Scrum Masters: “Leadership isn't about proving yourself; it's about helping others succeed.” Coaching Global Leaders: The Process Having coached CEOs of companies like Pfizer, Ford, and Walmart, as well as global influencers, Marshall dives into his coaching process. He explains the importance of courage, humility, and discipline and introduces how his new AI bot enhances his coaching framework with over 3 million words of distilled leadership wisdom. “Great coaching starts with great clients. My process is about helping them achieve their potential, not mine.” The Birth of MarshallGoldsmith.AI Marshall's desire to give back led to the creation of MarshallGoldsmith.AI, a free tool designed to democratize access to leadership wisdom. We explore how the bot leverages AI for knowledge-sharing, its inherent biases, and how it's being used in real coaching scenarios. “My goal is simple: help as many people as possible by sharing everything I've learned.” How AI Will Revolutionize Leadership Looking forward, Marshall shares his vision for how AI will reshape learning and coaching. He believes AI will accelerate knowledge sharing, making insights immediately accessible and creating new opportunities for thought leaders to amplify their impact. “The future of coaching lies in immediate access to transformative ideas—AI makes this possible.” Lessons for Scrum Masters MarshallGoldsmith.AI even has advice for Agile practitioners! When asked about lessons for Scrum Masters, the bot highlighted three key principles: focus on collaboration, prioritize feedback without judgment, and build team resilience. “Listen, thank people, don't judge, and focus on actionable steps forward.” Parting Words of Advice Marshall leaves us with a timeless reflection: “Imagine you're near the end of your life and can offer one piece of advice to your younger self. What would it be? Live that advice today.” About Dr. Marshall Goldsmith Dr. Marshall Goldsmith is a #1 New York Times bestselling author, whose books have sold over 3 million copies worldwide.

Steve Blank is one of Silicon Valley's most persistent hackers. As the pioneer of the Lean Startup movement, Blank has changed how startups are built, how entrepreneurship is taught, how science is commercialized, and how companies and the government innovate. And now, as a Stanford professor, he's focused on hacking contemporary United States diplomacy and warfare. So what does Blank make of Elon Musk's attempts to make the Federal government more efficient? Will the American future be owned by SpaceX rather than NASA? And what does that tell us about the value of the Federal U.S. bureaucracy in the 21st century?Eight-time entrepreneur-turned-educator Steve Blank is credited with launching the Lean Startup movement.

He teaches his Lean LaunchPad class at Stanford, Berkeley, Columbia and NYU, among others; and created the National Science Foundation Innovation Corps that is now the standard for science commercialization in the U.S. His Hacking for Defense class at Stanford is revolutionizing how the U.S. defense and intelligence community deploys innovation with speed and urgency, and its sister class, Hacking for Diplomacy, is doing the same for foreign affairs challenges managed by the U.S. State Department.

Rita McGrath is a best-selling author, sought-after speaker, and longtime professor at Columbia Business School. She is widely recognized as a premier expert on leading innovation and growth during times of uncertainty. Rita has received the #1 achievement award for strategy from the prestigious Thinkers50 and has been consistently named one of the world's Top 10 management thinkers. Rita has also consulted CEOs of Fortune 500 companies worldwide. Rita has written five books, including Discovery Driven Growth, cited by Clayton Christensen as creating one of the most important management ideas ever developed. Rita received her Ph.D. from the Wharton School and has degrees from Barnard College and the Columbia School of International and Public Affairs. In this episode we discuss the following: At any given time, we're in one of two situations: low uncertainty or high uncertainty. And the mistake we so often make is using the techniques we use for low uncertainty in the domain of high uncertainty. When we're in an uncertain environment, where we're making a lot of assumptions, we need to collect data to convert those assumptions to facts. Rita calls this Discovery Driven Planning. When planning for a conventional line of business, uncertainty is low, managers have good data, and people can accurately forecast the future with relative precision. But when launching an entirely new venture, uncertainty is high, so it doesn't make sense to start off with a big team, ambitious goals, all the money upfront, and definite deadlines. Rather, we should do the opposite and start small, collect data, test assumptions, and iterate. When making decisions, we should first assess whether we're in Situation 1 (low uncertainty) or Situation 2 (high uncertainty). And if we find ourselves in Situation 2, we should start small, collect data, test assumptions, and iterate.

Richie Norton interviews world-renowned expert Whitney Johnson about tools to thrive during disruption. Whitney recently, writes, "But as novel as the novel coronavirus is, there is nothing new about trouble and challenge. I think when we succumb to fear and the paralysis or overreaction that it can stimulate, we are more likely to abandon the ship than to have it simply sink on its own." Whitney Johnson explains, "Resources are meant to be used. Let's keep the resources circulating and at work. Let's keep living. Invest in the future. It will affect everything we do and are. And our children. Our children's children. There will be opportunities for new growth; if we look for those and embrace the constraints (can't travel, must telecommute, lost half the budget, have to start again in a new place or start a new business, etc.) we will emerge from this perhaps historic moment better prepared for the challenges of the future. Which will come. Innovation is the happy fruit of the resourcefulness demanded by hard times." Whitney Johnson is the CEO of WLJ Advisors and one of the 50 leading business thinkers in the world as named by Thinkers50.

In these books, she codifies her frameworks for developing high-growth individuals and organizations – the Personal Disruption and the S Curve of Learning frameworks. Whitney was the cofounder of the Disruptive Innovation Fund with Harvard Business School's Clayton Christensen, through which they invested in and led the $8 million seed round for South Korea's Coupang, currently valued at more than $9 billion.

Major cities worldwide are shutting doors, countries shutting borders and the future is unknown. COVID-19 carriers are rarely speaking up.

Limited-time discount available – don't miss out! What if the world's top executive coach could fit in your pocket? With over 40 books authored and countless C-suite transformations under his belt, Marshall Goldsmith is now taking on his biggest challenge yet: an AI-powered platform that's democratizing access to his decades of wisdom. In a world obsessed with achievement, Goldsmith's most radical idea might just be that success won't make you happy. Marshall Goldsmith, a man who's coached the coaches, now wants to coach an entire generation through the power of artificial intelligence. Dr. Marshall Goldsmith has been recognized as one of the Top Ten Business Thinkers in the World and the top-rated executive coach at the Thinkers50 ceremony in London since 2011. Published in 2015, his book Triggers is a Wall Street Journal and New York Times #1 Bestseller! He's also the author of the New York Times bestseller and #1 Wall Street Journal Business Book What Got You Here Won't Get You There, winner of the Harold Longman Award as Best Business Book of the Year. Achievement Doesn't Guarantee Happiness: Happiness and achievement are independent variables. Marshall states, "Achieve to achieve. But don't ever think achievement is going to make you happy." Michael Phelps and Albert Barlow (CEO of Pfizer) illustrate that even extraordinary achievements don't necessarily lead to lasting happiness or satisfaction. Avoiding self-stereotyping: Many of our perceived limitations are self-imposed and can be overcome. Leaders should be cautious about how they stereotype themselves, it can significantly limit their potential. Leadership is always changing: Modern leadership is evolving from a top-down approach to a more facilitative role. Peter Drucker states that, "The leader of the past knew how to tell, the leader of future knows how to ask." Today leaders need to be more collaborative, ask questions, and involve team members in decision-making. Stakeholder-centered coaching: Marshall's coaching methodology, which he calls "stakeholder-centered coaching," focuses on helping leaders learn from everyone around them. He emphasizes the importance of getting feedback from stakeholders, listening to it, and making measurable changes based on that input. This differs from more introspective coaching methods and focuses on practical, observable behavioral changes.

Marshall's most popular book is What Got You Here Won't Get You There: How Successful People Become Even More Successful*. In this episode, Marshall and I explore the key lessons from this iconic book and the most common habits that hold leaders back. Key Points The superstition trap: I behave this way and I am successful, therefore I am successful because I behave this way. The higher you go, the more your problems are behavioral. Winning too much is a trap successful people. Ask yourself, “Is it worth it?” Be aware that your suggestions become orders. Avoid starting your responses with “no,” “but,” or “however.” It's hard to hear things we already know. We are not here on Earth to prove how smart we are. Help more, judge less. We all reinforce people who reinforce us. We hate obvious suck ups, but not the good ones. The good suck ups can easily fool the best leaders. Beware an excessive need to “be me.” Instead, be who you want and need to be.
