Should I Fly: Why we fly 27:59

Over the past two years, global lockdowns meant many didn't have to answer the “Should I fly?” question. But as the world re-opens, travel looks set to make a comeback in 2022. Should we return to our pre-covid habits? Has the pandemic changed our attitude to flying? And how do we make the decision to travel? Throughout Should I Fly, Professors Jim Pulcrano and Patrick Reinmoeller have talked to pilots, airport bosses, environmentalists, technologists, and investors. But now their focus is on you! In this 6th episode, they cover how people make the decision to fly... and the reasons why some are opting out. ————————— Credits: Produced by JohnJo Devlin Written and presented by Professors Jim Pulcrano and Patrick Reinmoeller Links: Read our new magazine, I by IMD, here .

Quick and easy international travel is a normal part of modern life, but almost 20 years ago getting from A to B was an even faster process. In the early 2000s, Concorde allowed passengers to get from London to New York in less than four hours; but high costs and environmental complaints brought an end to the supersonic travel era. Now, a new generation of pioneering companies is aiming to make aviation faster and more efficient, while cutting down on emissions. This week, Professors Jim Pulcrano and Patrick Reinmoeller look at the world of entrepreneurs and investors, and how innovation might impact their answer to the “Should I fly” question. ————————— Credits: Produced by JohnJo Devlin Written and presented by Professors Jim Pulcrano and Patrick Reinmoeller Links: Read our new magazine, I by IMD, here .

Leadership OS: The Operating System You Need to Succeed 26:49

5 years geleden26:49

26:49

Based on years of original research by IMD Professor Shlomo Ben-Hur and Nik Kinley, this book controversially counters almost every existing leadership model and approach. It shows how as leaders rise to senior levels, their roles become less about doing things that directly drive results and more about directing and supporting others to achieve objectives. Using case studies and research insights the authors reveal how leadership success is thus not so much about having the right core capabilities, but about creating the right environment. Using the analogy of a smartphone operating system (OS), the book presents a new way of thinking about leadership. The authors provide a clear and practical framework to follow and show how your leadership OS becomes the impact you have, the imprint you make and the foundation of your legacy as a leader. After reading it, you will learn: · How to diagnose the impact you have as a leader and understand the OS you create · How famous business and societal leaders have created effective – and sometimes ineffective – OSs · How to optimise your OS to produce the best results · How to get people working together effectively, and be a high-performing leader Providing you with practical and easy to follow advice, this book will show you how leadership success is not about having the core capabilities, but about creating the right operating systems for your organisation.

Every business faces the existential threat of competitors producing cheaper copies. Even patent filings, market dominance and financial resources can’t shield them from copycats. So what can we do—and, what can we learn from companies that have endured and even prospered for centuries despite copycat competition? In his book Leap , IMD professor of management and innovation Howard Yu shows that succeeding in today’s marketplace is no longer just a matter of mastering the old (copycat tactics); companies also need to continue the discovery process, harnessing new strategies and advancements in technology while leveraging shifts in the marketplace (leap strategy). Leap identifies five fundamental principles that allow companies to make a leap and stay successful in the face of such competition.…

Corporate learning changes: Employees are less loyal, investment in corporate learning decreases; at the same time need for upskilling to build competent workforce Public sector, as “purveyor” of education: traditional responsibility to provide education typically ended with the provision of higher education/ university system.

The Interview, with Rio Tinto's Isabelle Deschamps 28:07

2 years geleden28:07

28:07

Globally, firms are coming under increasing pressure to weigh profit-making against their social and environmental responsibilities. The trend, which breaks with a long tradition of shareholder primacy, requires business leaders to understand the needs, interests, and expectations of a diverse array of stakeholders. At Rio Tinto, no one has a greater awareness of this than Isabelle Deschamps. As the mining group’s Chief Legal Officer, Deschamps is not short of responsibility. Her remit includes legal, ethical, and corporate governance functions, as well as communications, and public affairs. It's rare that companies bring all of these functions together under one person. But Deschamps says that while at first glance they may seem to conflict with one another, the key to solving all of them is listening: "When you talk about communications you think about 'transparency,' when you talk about legal you think 'defense'. But that's not the way we see it. We see that all these functions can create positive tension, but also help us get to the right decision-making." Deschamps says that to improve decision-making, every stakeholder – both internal and external – needs to be given a voice. In conversation with David Bach, IMD's Professor of Strategy and Political Economy, she talks about ethics, leadership, and getting ahead of the curve. ***** Isabelle Deschamps joined Rio Tinto in November 2021 and has extensive international experience. She is admitted to the England and Wales Law Society and to the Quebec Bar, in Canada. Deschamps has also worked as General Counsel of the AkzoNobel Group and a member of its Executive Committee, and prior to this at Unilever. David Bach is Professor of Strategy and Political Economy, Rio Tinto Chair in Stakeholder Engagement and Dean of Innovation and Programs. He is a political economy expert with a proven track record of creating impactful learning journeys in a dual role as both Professor and Dean. His course The End of Globalization? – designed in the aftermath of the Brexit vote and the rise of populist leaders across Western democracies – received the 2018 Ideas Worth Teaching Award from the Aspen Institute.…

As the FinTech arena moves beyond smoothing back-office processes and facilitating relationships between existing players we are seeing a new generation of B2C players rise to take on the incumbent institutions. With the rise of challenger banks, we also see hybrid organizations seeking to use new technologies and the resulting processes and public awareness thereof to slice up markets a little differently. Alpian is one such nascent institution, with both new aspects and old backers, seeking to bridge the gap between high street/ retail banks and service-based private wealth managers.

When Peter Bakker joined World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) a decade ago, the conversation on climate change was very different. Back in 2012, he says, companies were still grappling with the 'why' of environmental issues, rather than the 'how'. Fast-forward 10 years and the business landscape has been transformed, the WBCSD President & CEO said. Today more than ever, sustainability is a central issue for growing companies. By developing tools to help leading businesses tackle climate, WBCSD has been working to build a more balanced world. Made up of more than 200 members, this CEO-led community is accelerating the system transformations needed for a net-zero, nature-positive and more equitable future. In conversation with IMD's Professor of Strategy and Political Economy David Bach, Peter Bakker discussed the changing face of conservation, why equality is good for business, and his vision for 2050.
