M&A deals have traditionally been transactional in nature, pursued for economies of scale and to consolidate costs. But that approach has more limited success in today’s volatile business landscape and won’t provide the transformational results that companies need today. To unlock the growth potential that transformational M&A can bring, leaders need a shift in thinking and behavior.

A mind is a terrible thing to spew when it’s a bubbling cauldron of brilliance. Practice strategic silence rather than blinding with faux wisdom. Conformity disempowers. Strategic silence empowers.

How much value are your customers getting from your products? Net Promoter Scores are one tool to answer that question but the authors offer another: Customer Surplus Value. The idea, drawn from economics, is to ask customers how much money they’d need to be given to give up your product for a period of time. The more money it would take for them to accept, the more valuable the product.

Bill Walton’s Philosophy of Joy Why is it that the death of NBA Hall of Famer Bill Walton this week hits me harder than the passing of most celebrities that I’ve never met? I think it’s because he so clearly sought joy in his life and that a big source of joy for him was giving it to others, including me as one of his many fans as a player and especially as a broadcaster.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.
