  • #18: Bonus - Can Our Cities Adopt The Advantages Of Trillion Dollar Thinking? Part 2 of 2
    NYU Professor Scott Galloway has created, written, and is teaching about the Trillion Dollar Algorithm. The T-Algorithm is a reverse-engineered playbook that dissects the success of The Four (Amazon, Google, Facebook, Apple).  
    In this episode, I consider the second half of the algorithm. How might verticle integration, the Benjamin Button effect, visionary storytelling, and likeability be applied to our cities? Is there any opportunities for differentiation?    
    In keeping with my podcast promise (less than 10 minutes), I'm covering the second half of the T-Algorithm in this part 2 of 2 mini series.

  • #17: Bonus - Can Our Cities Adopt The Advantages Of Trillion Dollar Thinking? Part 1 of 2
    NYU Professor Scott Galloway has created, written, and is teaching about the Trillion Dollar Algorithm. The T-Algorithm is a reverse-engineered playbook that dissects the success of The Four (Amazon, Google, Facebook, Apple).
    In this episode I consider how appealing to human instinct, becoming a career accelerant, growth and margins, and "the rundle" might apply to our cities and if there are opportunities for differentiation.
    In keeping with my podcast promise (less than 10 minutes), I'll cover the other half of the T-Algorithm in a part 2 episode.
