Using the end of the summer to reset your approach to development can create new energy for your career. Instead of feeling like another thing to fit in, it can be a new source of motivation that supports everything else you’re trying to do. The idea is to identify actions that will kick-start your learning in a way that’s easy to add into your day.

Entrepreneurs are uniquely positioned to provide innovative solutions to urgent challenges that require concentrated, collaborative effort. But to scale these solutions, founders need more than just capital — they need strong, effective support from their investors.

The researchers estimate that better succession planning could help the large-cap US equity market achieve 20% to 25% higher company valuations and investor returns.

A few years ago, I started waking up at three o’clock every morning. Over the years, I’d read many articles about the importance of rest, so I knew the research was unequivocal: Quality sleep supports cognitive performance and lowers the risk of diseases and health conditions such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, obesity, and dementia. Knowing that, I’d toss and turn in bed, disappointed that I wasn’t following through on my plan to get seven to eight hours of shut-eye.
