If you’ve been listening to this podcast and reading our work, you know that we have been advocating for some awareness and action regarding a change in the market structure and what investors can be aware of as they wor

You want better meetings and energy on your team, but becoming a facilitator was probably not on your to do list when you became an investor or executive, right? You don’t have to go that far, because today we are going

What is one of the most important “technologies” investors have at their disposal? Meetings. Today we are offering 10 practical ways to adjust and enhance what you are already doing that you know could be even more valua
