The incredible and shocking lack of organizational longevity can be addressed by companies that develop purpose statements to drive strategic and operational clarity. To create future-proof, resilient businesses that people want to work for and customers want to buy from, CEOs must embrace the power of purpose. However, these purpose statements need to be written so that they can…
The rise and fall of Stax Records, an influential but underwhelming Memphis-based label, is the subject of the HBO documentary “STAX: Soulsville USA.” This is a story not only of musical genius, but also of racism, personal tragedy, and corporate greed. American history, so to speak.In the best possible way, filmmaker Jamila Wigneault’s four-part series feels like falling down a rabbit hole. When it came to soundtracks from the ’60s and her ’70s, Motown was a staple.

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) — Virginia Tech researchers have found a link between voter behavior in presidential elections and housing market performance.

As often happens with adults who spend time around children, you get asked questions to which the answer is: “I know this doesn’t make sense or doesn’t seem right, but that’s how the world works right now.” This lens of asking the basic questions about how the world is supposed to work and how it actually does is incredibly potent for finding design flaws and opportunities to correct them.

When the Detroit Lions announced their schedule for the 2024 NFL season, there was something that immediately caught my attention. For the past 10 seasons, bye weeks have typically ranged from Week 4 to Week 14. Starting in 2019, the first scheduled bye week was Week 5 (the NFL will not expand to an 18-week schedule until the 2021 season). The Lions have the (possibly) unfortunate luck of having their first bye week in Week 5. Detroit is used to early bye weeks. In his 10 years of football history, the Lions have had Week 5 byes three times and…
