The Dov Barron Show

Russia at War a Business Metaphor

Problems today are more complex and more multi-faceted than ever before.

In order to just make it through the next few years, you and I already need problem-solving skills that are likely far beyond what we’ve been applying. Problem-solving demands a level of thinking that is far beyond black and white solutions. There is context, complexity, nuance, and agility required. But how can you step into that level of leadership? The answer is, we must learn to think about thinking.



Let’s find out how. Our guest for the next two episodes is (ret) Commander David Sears who served 20 years of active military duty within the United States Special Operations Command as a U.S. Navy SEAL officer. David served on multiple east coast SEAL Teams, Naval Special Warfare Development Group, Joint Commands, and Headquarters USSOCOM. Today, David is a leadership speaker, the Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Xundis Global, an independent consultant, and author of Smarter Not Harder: 17 Navy SEAL Maxims to Elevate Critical Thinking and Prosper in Business and Life.

Futurists tell us that over 50 percent of jobs today will soon be replaced by automation and AI. The shelf lives of certain skills are diminishing rapidly. Longstanding industries and industry leaders are being massively disrupted.

These staggering changes are challenging our concepts of what a career really looks like today and how we should build organizations going forward. We are facing what today’s guest has called, “a Workquake.” The Pandemic has had a profound impact on every area of our lives. The shockwaves have impacted everything from physical and mental health, to supply chain and political power. However, this is also a perfect opportunity to tackle the challenges we have been ignoring or denying. How?

Let's find out. Our guest for the next two episodes is Steve Cadigan. Steve sees his mission in life to help individuals and organizations unlock their greatness and discover their magic. He is an expert in the future of work and is considered a corporate culture guru, bringing winning insights from over thirty years of HR experience to industry titans like Google, Salesforce, The Royal Bank of Scotland, McKinsey, the BBC, as well as venture capital firms like Andreessen Horowitz. Steve Cadigan speaks around the world at global conferences and major universities.

Steve is famous for architecting LinkedIn's amazing culture during its years of hyper-growth, seen by many as the gold standard. His latest book is, Workquake: Embracing the Aftershocks of COVID-19 to Create a Better Model of Working.

As a leader today, if you have not considered what your legacy is, or at least could be?

Without a Legacy project, you are going to find it very hard to lead a Millennial workforce and pretty much impossible to lead Gen-Z. That being said, you’re busy. There are deadlines and shareholder meetings. Everyone is pulling at you. So, how can you find out what your legacy is, as a human and as a leader?

Well, that’s where we are going, so stay tuned. Our guest for the next two episodes is Emily Chang. Emily is the CEO of McCann Worldgroup, one of the Big Four global marketing firms, with an integrated network of advertising agencies in over 120 countries. She is a seasoned executive who has worked with some of the world’s most renowned companies like Procter & Gamble, Apple, and Starbucks.

Over the last twenty-two years, Emily’s job has brought her and her family to eight different homes across USA and China. Everywhere she’s lived, Emily has found herself at the unique intersection of what she terms, her Offer and Offense. Life has served up young people who have been abused, neglected or marginalized, to find sanctuary in her spare room.

Among her deeply personal accounts, Emily shares heart-wrenching stories of an emotionally abused child bride, rescuing a dying baby boy, and the abused daughter of a local prostitute. With the sixteen young people she and her family have cared for, Emily has found that living into her Social Legacy has not only deeply enriched her home life, it has also enabled her to become a more authentic and relatable leader in the workplace. The depth of these stories is covered in a long-form, heart-wrenching and truly inspiring interview Emily did with us on Curiosity Bites. (https://shows.acast.com/curiosity-bites/episodes/13-emily-chang-inconvenient-purpose-the-price-of-miracles)

Now, more than ever, social purpose has become an urgent leadership imperative.

Emily’s latest book, The Spare Room, will help you identify your Social Legacy to live a more intentional life and lead with authentic purpose.
