John Patterson calls BS on Showtime series Billions’ take on being ‘transactional’
|
|
|
|
|
As a teacher of Transactional Competence, I am used to hearing the term “transactional” misused and abused. However, a recent rash of scenes on the Showtime series BILLIONS has finally brought me out from behind the velvet rope of my business to call B.S. on the show’s bastardization of something we all do every day—transact. Humankind exchanges to survive. No one is immune.

Our fascination with Anna Sorokin—charming fraudster or genius influencer?
|
|
|
|
|
Everything you know about being an influencer is wrong. Well, somewhat wrong. Case in point: a huge hit on Netflix is “Inventing Anna”, a drama miniseries starring Julia Garner, about the case of Anna “Delvey” Sorokin, a German convicted con artist and fraudster who Instagram-pretended to be a wealthy heiress defrauding banks, hotels, and acquaintances of hundreds of thousands of dollars. How has she stolen “the hearts and money of New York elites” as well as all this attention? Is she a charming fraudster or a genius influencer?

How do companies do more with less talent?
|
|
|
|
|
A record number of employees have or plan to quit. Already hobbled by the pandemic, businesses are now looking for new ways to balance investment in talent attraction, professional development, and finding tools to increase productivity. With more people reconsidering their careers, many companies will have to reinvent productivity amid a rapidly evolving society and culture.

A mass-migration toward career satisfaction
|
|
|
|
|
Workers want more flexibility, freedom, and work-life balance. They seek choices that satisfy all their conditions of life rather than options they must tolerate. The rebellion against crappy, dead-end jobs is really about asking ourselves what we truly want out of life.

Agile gets more agile with Transactional Competence
|
|
|
|
|
Most Agile Coaches struggle with Influencing up—getting greater buy-in for authentic Agility. It isn't easy to influence executive buy-in, and more challenging is to get buy-in for the real deal. In the absence of authentic Agility, you get all the pain and none of the gain. Ultimately, it will appear as if there is a missing piece to the manifesto. Join our panel of agility-focused Influential U students as we discuss how Transactional Competence™ allows Agility to out-perform expectations.
