The Leadersmith

In this episode, I talk about how Google ensures that it has high quality managers running its various departments. We will talk about evaluations, how Google reverses the evaluations, and the specific questions that employees use to evaluate their managers. Google worked hard to perfect this survey and they give it away for free:

On Twitter Tuesday, I discuss a handful of quotes about leadership and unpack them. I pre-select useful quotes; I do not just read my twitter feed—and I will give credit to the author of the quote, the person who posted, or both where possible.

In this episode, I talk about creativity and innovation. I specifically ask the questions: What happened to Sony’s lead in electronics? What happened to Blockbuster Video? What will happen to media as we move forward? How will Covid-19 change the economy?

There are patterns to innovation and market dominance. You will see them if you know what to look for.

Today, I am reviewing James Altucher’s advice for eventual millionaires. Altucher started 20 businesses, failed at 17 of them and became filthy rich in the process. He also wrote 20 books, cohosted a podcast with Stephen Dubner of Freakonomics fame, and his own James Altucher show.

I will review his 20 habits here. Here is the GQ article:

In this episode, I review The Most Important Leadership Competencies, According to Leaders Around the World, an article published in Harvard Business Review. Those who listened regularly to this podcast will see how different it is from the 4 Must-Have Leadership Qualities article (published in Entrepreneur magazine) that we discussed yesterday. Think of this episode as a continuation of episode 48.

Here is the HBR article I referenced in this episode:

In this episode, I discuss the article 4 Must-have leadership qualities, published in Entrepreneur magazine. I discuss what the author got right and what he got wrong.

If you enjoyed this episode, you really need to listen to tomorrow’s episode where I compare what you heard today with an article from Harvard Business Review entitled: The Most Important Leadership Competencies, According to Leaders Around the World.

I am discussing these two articles back to back intentionally. You will see nuances you would otherwise miss if you were only exposed to one or the other.
