GUEST POST from David Burkus At the core of teamwork is the need to solve problems. And when generating solutions, the more diverse a team you have, the more ideas you can generate. Sort of. The rationale behind diversity being a strength on teams is solid.

In their new book, Move Fast and Fix Things, Frances Frei and Anne Morriss outline five strategies to help leaders tackle their hardest problems and quickly make change. Their final strategy is to execute your plan with a sense of urgency. They argue that most big organizational problems deserve a more urgent response — a metabolic rate that honors the frustration, mediocrity, and pain of the status quo.

Have you ever experienced feeling overwhelmed when studying for an exam or trying to solve a difficult problem? If so, you've likely encountered cognitive load. Cognitive load refers to the mental effort required to process information and complete tasks. As we go through our daily lives, we encounter cognitive load in many forms, such as trying to remember someone's name, navigating a new city, or juggling multiple tasks at once.

Change always begins with a grievance. There’s something people don’t like and they want it to be different. We like to see ourselves as heroes fighting for everything that’s right and we question the motivations of those who oppose our cause. When we believe in something passionately, it’s hard to see how anyone, in good conscience, can see it another way.

Why would you ask a question that everyone knows the answer to? The great thinker and astronomer Carl Sagan asked this question, ‘Is there life on Earth?’ But he asked it from a different perspective; from the viewpoint of an unknowing observer far outside the Earth. In December 1990, NASA’s exploratory space probe, Galileo, was due to fly past Earth.

GUEST POST from Mike Shipulski When your organization doesn’t want to hear your truth because it contradicts a decision they’ve already made, that’s a sign of trouble. It’s a sign they’re going to do what they’re going to and they don’t care all that much about you. But, what if they’re wrong?

ICL’s story begins at the lowest point on earth. Nearly a century ago, a Siberian adventurer, engineer, and businessman named Moshe Novomeysky secured permission to establish a mining facility in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea. Over the years that followed, this venture would overcome significant obstacles and make countless breakthroughs on its journey to becoming the global innovation powerhouse known nowadays as ICL.

Creativity is a highly applicable character trait of those who find success and significance in the business world. In light of this observation, the question of whether creativity can be taught naturally arises. While it’s true that, with sufficient determination, individuals can learn almost anything, teaching your team to think creatively in any industry is contingent upon the approach.

Projects are unique, temporary, and dynamic. At the beginning of a project, you can be proactive as you plan, schedule, source, and staff. But the process will invariably shift and become more reactive as you respond to challenges along the way. Project success ultimately depends on maintaining project team alignment from inception to completion. That can only happen when a project manager consistently realigns the team throughout the project.

Every few years it seems that hype grows around the possibilities of unbundling education.

As a recent article in Education Next , where I’m an executive editor, proclaimed, “While parent-led unbundling is not a new phenomenon, the current movement has expanded so quickly that it’s been dubbed ‘the G

Formulas may be road-tested approaches to business challenges, but formulas have flaws. What worked yesterday might not be applicable or even plausible today. There are three primary weaknesses to relying on formulas to address business issues in a constantly changing environment: 1.) they don’t work the same in all contexts; 2) they can be replicated by the competition; and 3) they can have hidden risks.

In recent years, as more states and districts have wrestled with the definition of “college- and career-ready,” alternative postsecondary pathways have multiplied, and career-connected learning has gained steam, a new term has popped up in education: navigation. Navigation has slightly more expansive connotations than its predecessor, “guidance.” It’s not just about one single, high-stakes decision about where to apply to or enroll in college.

In the aftermath of a very public system failure or a project going significantly over-budget, a key question that’s often asked is: “Why didn’t anyone bring this to our attention?” The root causes of why people fail to escalate issues (even when they know it’s the right thing to do) fall into both organizational and systemic categories. Among them are the lack of a culture of trust, poor communications, ineffective feedback, and valuing IQ over EQ.

Successfully transitioning to a higher-level leadership role requires self-confidence, but many leaders display too much or too little early on. In this article, the author outlines strategies to help you find the optimal level of confidence. If there is one thing that defines effective leadership as you move from a manager to executive to CEO, it’s that your results become increasingly less about you and more about the attention you place on others so you can deliver through them.
