I'd love to write more about each of these three topics, but I've blogged so infrequently, that I'm going to post three links and declare victory by just getting a post up. Here they are:
Spotlight on Scalability - Great talk by Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg about scaling a vision, a product, and yourself. LOVE the career advice about finding and giving solid mentoring.
Contribution Revolution - Article by Intuit co-founder Scott Cook about leveraging customer communities to deliver better products at a lower cost. Great stuff.
The Myth of the Tireless Leader - The title pretty much says it all. Timely reading for a guy who was up until 1am fighting w/ Pivot Tables of sales and defect data. Poor Larry Summers. Just this morning, I was talking to someone who sleeps quite a bit less than I do and my first reaction was the typical, "I don't know how you do it." I changed the comment, instead, to "I don't know why you do that to yourself." At the end of the day, it's a CHOICE. One that I'm going to make a little differently going forward.
