  • Moments of Impact: How to Design Strategic Conversations That Accelerate Change
    Jun 12 2025
    In our fast-changing world, leaders are increasingly confronted by messy, multifaceted challenges that require collaboration to resolve. But the standard methods for tackling these challenges—meetings packed with data-drenched presentations or brainstorming sessions that circle back to nowhere—just don’t deliver. Great strategic conversations generate breakthrough insights by combining the best ideas of people with different backgrounds and perspectives. In Moments of Impact, two experts “crack the code” on what it takes to design creative, collaborative problem-solving sessions that soar rather than sink. Drawing on decades of experience as innovation strategists—and supported by cutting-edge social science research, dozens of real-life examples, and interviews with well over 100 thought leaders, executives, and fellow practitioners— they unveil a simple, creative process that leaders and their teams can use to unlock solutions to their most vexing issues. The book also includes a 60 page “Starter Kit” full of tools and tips for putting the book’s core principles into practice. Our guest is: Lisa Kay Solomon, who is a bestselling author, strategic foresight designer, speaker, and award winning innovator. She is a Designer in Residence and Lecturer at the Stanford d.school, where she leads their futures work and teaches popular classes like “Inventing the future” and “View from the future,” that help leaders and learners learn skills to build agency and navigate ambiguity amid increasingly complex futures. She is the co-founder of award-winning civic initiatives like “Vote by Design: Presidential Edition,” The Team’s “All Vote No Play” civic programming for student athletes, and, “The Futures Happening: Democracy Edition.” She co-authored the bestselling books Moments of Impact, and Design A Better Business which has been translated into over a dozen languages. Our host is: Dr. Christina Gessler, who works as a developmental editor for scholars, and is the producer of the Academic Life podcast.

  • Charles A. O'Reilly, III and Michael L. Tushman, "Lead and Disrupt: How to Solve the Innovator's Dilemma, Second Edition" (Stanford Business Books, 2021)
    Jun 10 2025
    Lead and Disrupt: How to Solve the Innovator's Dilemma Second Edition 2nd Edition by Charles A. O’Reilly III and Michael L. Tushman The second edition of this classic analyzes why mature organizations find it so difficult to innovate. This question has become ever more important as organizations face continuous disruptive changes. O’Reilly and Tushman offer strategies for using ambidextrous organizational structures and arrangements for flexibility so that organizations can adapt to fast-changing environments and grow. The authors have worked with leaders of organizations around the world who have confronted disruptive change. Using examples from such firms such as Microsoft, General Motors, and Amazon, they illustrate how leaders can change their organization's cultures, and rely on ideation, incubation, and to create growth. The podcast also discusses Corporate Explorer: How Corporations Beat Startups at the Innovation Game by Andrew Binns, Charles A. O'Reilly, and Michael Tushman. Corporate Explorer explains how managers can become successful corporate innovators. It is a guidebook to the practices that enable managers to go from idea into action.

  • Corporate Memory, Curated
    Jun 5 2025
    Stephen Chambers of the historical consulting firm The Winthrop Group earned his BA, MA, and PhD in history. Throughout graduate school, he pursued interests in applied history—often doing the opposite (his words!) of what he was supposed to be doing as a future academic. He also wrote historical fiction and science fiction as a way to reflect on the past. Today, he is a Managing Director at Winthrop, where he works on projects ranging from curating archival collections to writing corporate histories. Stephen and I discussed his path to his current role, the evolving meanings of “applied history,” who understands its value, and why. We talked about how applied history differs from academic history and PR, and how Stephen’s passion for history inspired him to write, in the early 2000s, a pair of technodystopian fantasy novels that challenged the era’s optimistic faith in globalization and technology.
