8 reliable lessons for unreliable times

If 2021 is even half as unpredictable as 2020 was, you'll need to dig deep into your resilience and wisdom to get through. We've pulled together this special episode of Masters of Scale to serve as a sort of primer for the new year, full of lessons learned from the sometimes devastating, sometimes inspiring year we just put behind us. These lessons come from a range of guests we've spoken to in a time of incredible change. Some are stories about doing everything right – and still ending up in crisis. Others are about overcoming the odds with grit, heart, and compassion. Featuring GM's Mary Barra, Jeff Wiener, Jonah Peretti, Rashad Robinson, Colleen DeCourcy, Susan Wojcicki, and more.  Listen to Masters of Scale episodes mentioned in this interview: Nick Means (GitHub): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/GitHubNickMeans Mary Barra (GM): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/GMMaryBarra Ellen Kullman (Dupont, Carbon): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/CarbonEllenKullman Jonah Peretti (BuzzFeed): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/BuzzFeedJonahPeretti Jeff Weiner (LinkedIn): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/LinkedInJeffWeiner Hans Vestberg (Verizon): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/VerizonHansVestberg Brian Cornell (Target): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/TargetBrianCornell Rashad Robinson (Color of Change): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/ColorofChangeRashadRobinson Baratunde Thurston (Host, Author): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/HostBaratundeThurston Eddy Lu (GOAT): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/GOATEddyLu Colleen DeCourcy (Wieden+Kennedy): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/Wieden-KennedyColleenDeCourcy Eva Moskowitz (Success Academy): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/SuccessAcademyEvaMoskowitz Drew Houston (Dropbox): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/DropboxDrewHouston Mary Schmidt Campbell (Spelman College): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/SpelmanCollegeSchmidtCampbell Susan Wojcicki (YouTube): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/YouTubeSusanWojcicki Sarah Friar (Nextdoor): http://listen.mastersofscale.com/NextdoorSarahFriar Read a transcript of this episode at https://mastersofscale.com Subscribe to the Masters of Scale weekly newsletter at https://mastersofscale.com/subscribe See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
