Life and business do tend to throw us off balance at times with unexpected challenges. In 1991 my company was awarded a prestigious Blue Chip Enterprise Award for our ability to pivot effectively when a sudden and unexpected loss of a major vendor threatened to completely shut down our production capabilities. The game-changing results became a great example of turning a challenge into an opportunity for growth for the company.   Vistage Worldwide, Inc. has been instrumental in helping me #thinkoutsidethebox   Learn how you can achieve breakthrough business results and gain clarity on your issues and opportunities by joining a Vistage peer advisory group.  bit.ly/44szt2E #vistage #sharedknowledge #freshperspectives #growthmindset

Pay close attention to founders who are prioritizing culture from early days. At Felicis, part of our unique value add as a Founder Success team is enabling founders to drive the right results from Seed through scale.  Sometimes, this means imparting wisdom from our personal experience and actionable insights that they can leverage to see around corners. In that vein, we recently ran a session for some of our early stage founders to discuss the importance of culture and values as a critical component of company success.  Decreased engagement can be a canary in the coal mine for future underperformance - strong culture and values alignment is really a competitive differentiator for companies. There were some interesting outcomes from this session - most notably 80% of founders in attendance said they were taking a different action after the session than they previously would have.  Stay tuned for a future post on "The Series B conundrum" which was an interesting part of the content for this session! #culture #valuesalignment #employeeengagement #peoplestrategy Jonathan Sukhia, Topkey, Bryan Beshore, Alex Bovee, ConductorOne, Jason Bao, .Ingwon.

Innovating at P&G means understanding, exploring, and solving everyday challenges in consumers' lives. It might be getting spaghetti stains out of your favorite blouse or finding a way to get clothes cleaner while using less hot water. Sometimes we are solving problems that people didn’t even know existed, like improving manufacturing processes to get products into homes faster. In the last three months, we have been recognized as a @CIO Online 100 Awards winner, claimed 7 of the top 25 spots among @[Circana](urn:li:organization:93158430)'s 2022 New Product Pacesetters, and have been named one of @[Boston Consulting Group \(BCG\)](urn:li:organization:1784)’s 50 Most Innovative Companies of 2023. If it touches how consumers care for their families, their pets, or their homes, our scientists and researchers want to know about it and make it better. Congratulations to the innovative teams and each #PGEmployee whose dedication to making life a little bit better every day made these recognitions possible! #PGInnovation #PGemployee
