What is the biggest stumbling block to Fortune 500 companies?
Howard Yu, DBA, the Lego professor of management at IMD Business School, and the author of Leap, has the answer.
Dr. Yu said that companies fumble in the marketplace not because they lack insight, plans, or resources.
It's the inability to work across silos. Different parts must come together to implement and execute an experiment. It’s the biggest problem that large organizations have.
Yu shared his business solutions and problem-solving mindset on this episode.

“Actually … Your hit time is in 45 minutes.”
She lived 25 minutes away. (And wasn’t even dressed.)
But it didn’t phase her. Why was she not worried, even though she wasn’t fully dressed, and was barely going to make her hit time?
She told us On the DLPR.

Just tell the truth.
So simple, yet so difficult for so many. Dan David joined us On the DLPR for an insider’s look at two areas hidden by secrecy: Congress, and China’s investment on Wall Street. On this episode, he dives into both topics and shared why the truth is so simple, yet so difficult for leaders in these two areas.
Dan has made his life all about telling the truth. On the campaign trail, he refused to accept an endorsement by high-ranking politicians whose policies he didn’t condone. He invited Republicans, Democrats, and independents to ask him any question during his town halls.
He was also the lead protagonist in China Hustle, a Netflix documentary exposing many of China’s US-listed securities, as fraudulent.

Mike joined us for this week’s episode of the podcast to talk about Strategic Partnerships, The Voice of a Brand, Strategic Planning, Metrics, and Relevant Content.

While the Chinese are considering growing cotton on the far side of the moon, many are using social media to follow business “celebrities.”
Nathan Richardson says too many people are soaking up the information of individual CEOs, not paying attention the products, services, or companies themselves.
But social media is vastly important still in our society, and to the financial services sector. The reality is, you must have a voice in the changing world, but how does a financial institution assert themselves into the dangerous world of Snapchat, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, while maintaining a professional image?
Those are the questions Than answers on this episode of On the DLPR.
Nathan’s resume has more fanfare than we have time for here. He’s worked in the Peace Corps, General Manager of Yahoo Finance, as President of Live from AOL, CEO of ContentNext Media, Head of Consumer Online Division at Dow Jones, Director at DotBank, and so many more countries (like Senegal and Liberia).
Whether he’s changing the world with sex education, disrupting digital in Silicon Valley, or bravely combining finance and modern technology, Nathan’s been there, done that, and here’s to talk about it.

Boredom is a foreign concept to anyone in the live news industry. The nature of the industry means everyone, behind and in front of the camera, must be ready to change direction at any moment — right up to the 10-second count.
No one knows this better than Brian Price.
Brian’s a Senior Reporter & Executive Producer at Real Vision, where he’s helping tell the stories that are shaping the financial world.
His previous experience includes several years as a producer at both CNBC and Bloomberg. Honestly though, he’s been on set since he was 10 years old, helping his filmmaker parents create documentaries on Rikers Island, dolphins in Australia, and police work.
On this episode of On the DLPR, Brian shares what it’s like both on and off the camera when breaking news strikes.
