Cuevana 2 | La Nueva Cuevana The paradoxes of creative leadership Creative leadership is rich with paradoxes. Creative leaders are driven by their internal passion and purpose, yet they also have an externally oriented, explorative mindset. Creative leaders lead from the front by envisioning a better future, pointing the way and setting an aspiration, yet they achieve this by orchestrating a creative team, often leading from behind to bring out the best in others. In this article, we describe the competencies of a creative leader in detail, and invite you to look in the mirror and see how you score on those key competencies. Building the creative leadership model As we began the search for the answer to the question ‘What are the competencies of the creative leader?’ Self-awareness helps leaders to build authenticity, as great leaders think and act from a place of truth within themselves. To respond to this challenge, we developed the THNK Creative Leadership Model. The THNK creative leadership model Passion and purpose Explorative mindset By Rajiv Ball

If they succeed our headcount will be 74 in in January. Of our 74 employees, 37% will have been at eShares less than three months and 79% less than one year. Many of you will be interviewing and hiring over the next couple of months. How do we hire quickly and create a better company (and culture) than we have today? Hiring Principles 1. I want to repeat this point. 2. Our minds find it easier to think in terms of efficiency and normal distributions than leverage and power law distributions. We rationalize this behavior with “lies we tell ourselves.” He is trying really hard.She deserves another chance.People really like her.I feel bad for him.He’s good at other things.He has stuff going on in his personal lifeShe is in the wrong role. Conversely, we should dramatically expand the responsibility of 20x performers. In startup hiring there are few shades of grey. 3. 4. Hiring Heuristics 1.

Prevent Spreadsheets from Strangling Your Startup Entrepreneurs are the lifeline of any economy, and high-growth start-ups in particular are responsible for the great majority of new job creation. It’s worrying, then, that according to several reports the number of new businesses being created in the U.S. has been stalled since the end of the recession. As a mentor to many start-up entrepreneurs, I find this slow-down concerning, and I see one reason that’s rarely spoken about and needs a closer look: what I call spreadsheet asphyxiation. Start-ups can’t be assessed using conventional business metrics. First, what specific problem are you solving? Second, who will be willing to pay a premium for your product or service? Third, who do you want on your core team? Finally, why are you doing this? It’s not that investors should be held at arm’s length and considered only as sources of cash. A final subtlety: Making money is the foremost goal of the investor, to be sure, but it’s not always the primary mission of the start-up founder.

Hacking the MindLab culture « MindBlog During a regular day at the office, it is easy to solely rely on habit and simply perform task as one usually does. Habit and routine are important kinds of experience. Unfortunately they can also limit on’s perspective and adaptiveness of new solutions, new knowledge, and development. In the fall of 2015, all MindLab staffers were presented with a challenge to their habits as part of an experiment on MindLab’s internal and external collaborations and procedural, minor actions; all of which are elements of a working culture. In other words, we were trying to “hack” MindLab’s existing culture. In MindLab, we aim to explore new methods and ways for the public sector to develop. Experiment One: The Coin Experiment An ambitious project requires an equally ambitious launch. The inspiration came from Hans Ruitenberg and Pieter Desmet’s TinyTasks; a micro-behavioural initiative to increase the individual user’s sense of satisfaction.

5 Ways to be a Better Mentor Copyright All rights reserved by yeuse1. Used by permission. Mentoring is hard. Mentoring is also a more significant part of the economy today than since, perhaps, apprentorship in the craftsman age. During the Industrial age, most labor was focused on optimizing repeatable tasks. The requirements for high-quality mentoring have changed, but in most environments outside of major tech hubs, the practice of mentoring has not kept pace. The successes, for example, of Y Combinator and Tech Stars can be attributed directly to the quality and rigor of their mentorship. Of course Y Combinator and Tech Stars have access to world-class entrepreneurs and experts and I’m guessing their mentor programs have evolved as they found what worked and what didn’t. So, two posts: First, I’ll try and avoid the mundane while discussing what makes a good mentor. Here are my keys to successful mentoring: 1) Teach, don’t Tell The role of a mentor is not to criticize a business model. You’re not helping. Like this:

5 Little-Known Tools to Find Stunning Type Combos Do you want to master successful graphic design? If so, you can't just focus on finding the right images and colors to use. In reality, one of the most important parts of effective design is ensuring that you find the right combination of fonts to use together.
