  How to Work with an Insecure Boss: The Harvard Business Review Guide 24 Mar 2022 --- Of all the bad bosses out there, one of the most common–and most painful to work for–is the one who’s plagued by doubt. Here’s how to deal with them. 00:00 If you’ve ever doubted yourself because your boss doesn’t have faith in you, shoots down your ideas without explanation, or blames you for their lack of success, this video is for you. 00:34 How do you know if you’re dealing with an insecure boss? 01:05 Don’t try to retaliate! You’ll only make things worse. 01:30 A little self-doubt is normal, but here’s where it crosses the line. 02:41 Tactic 1: Remain patient. 03:25 Tactic 2: Frame your work as a joint effort. 04:05 Tactic 3: Signal that you’re not a threat. 04:45 Tactic 4: Flattery works–as long as it’s genuine. 05:25 Tactic 5: Restore their sense of control. 06:40 Realize though: You’re not going to change them. 07:00 Let’s recap! The tips in this Harvard Business Review Guide come from Amy Gallo’s book, “Getting Along: How to Work with Anyone (Even Difficult People)”, available here: https://www.amazon.com/Getting-Along-Anyone-Difficult-People/dp/1647821061/ SEE ALSO: Managing 3 Types of Bad Bosses: https://hbr.org/2014/12/managing-3-types-of-bad-bosses What to Do When You Have a Bad Boss: https://hbr.org/2018/09/what-to-do-when-you-have-a-bad-boss Produced by Amy Gallo and Scott LaPierre Video by Andy Robinson Design by Riko Cribbs, Alex Belser, and Karen Player Follow us: https://hbr.org/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/harvard-business-review/ https://www.facebook.com/HBR/ https://twitter.com/HarvardBiz https://www.instagram.com/harvard_business_review Sign up for Newsletters: https://hbr.org/email-newsletters #HarvardBusinessReview #BadBoss #Insecurity Copyright © 2022 Harvard Business School Publishing.

  The Explainer: Cerulean Ocean Strategy 05.10.2026 4Min.

  The Explainer: Blue Ocean Strategy 16 Jul 2019 --- When you break the bounds of existing industries, competition becomes irrelevant. The business universe consists of two distinct kinds of space, which we think of as red and blue oceans. Red oceans represent all the industries in existence today—the known market space. In red oceans, industry boundaries are defined and accepted, and the competitive rules of the game are well understood. Here, companies try to outperform their rivals in order to grab a greater share of existing demand. As the space gets more and more crowded, prospects for profits and growth are reduced. Products turn into commodities, and increasing competition turns the water bloody. Blue oceans denote all the industries not in existence today—the unknown market space, untainted by competition. In blue oceans, demand is created rather than fought over. There is ample opportunity for growth that is both profitable and rapid. There are two ways to create blue oceans. In a few cases, companies can give rise to completely new industries, as eBay did with the online auction industry. But in most cases, a blue ocean is created from within a red ocean when a company alters the boundaries of an existing industry. This is what Cirque du Soleil did. In breaking through the boundary traditionally separating circus and theater, it made a new and profitable blue ocean from within the red ocean of the circus industry. --------------------------------------------------------------------- At Harvard Business Review, we believe in management. If the world’s organizations and institutions were run more effectively, if our leaders made better decisions, if people worked more productively, we believe that all of us — employees, bosses, customers, our families, and the people our businesses affect — would be better off. So we try to arm our readers with ideas that help them become smarter, more creative, and more courageous in their work. We enlist the foremost experts in a wide range of topics, including career planning, strategy, leadership, work-life balance, negotiations, innovation, and managing teams.

  How to Control Your Emotions During a Difficult Conversation: The Harvard Business Review Guide 05.10.2026 9Min.

  How to Control Your Emotions During a Difficult Conversation: The Harvard Business Review Guide 2 Mar 2022 --- When you’re in the middle of a conflict, it’s common to automatically enter a “fight or flight” mentality. But it’s possible to interrupt this response and clear a path towards a more productive discussion. 00:00 Have you ever lost control during a heated argument at work? 00:28 Emotions are a chemical response to a difficult situation. 01:35 To stay calm, first acknowledge and label your feelings. 02:25 Next, focus on your body. 03:32 Use visualizations. 04:19 Focus on your breath. 04:52 Repeat a calming phrase or mantra. 05:08 Ok. Let’s review. Start by taking a deep breath and focusing on your body. Repeat a mantra to yourself such as “This isn’t about me,” “This will pass,” or “This is about the business.” And try to distance yourself from the negative emotion you’re feeling by labeling it: “He is so wrong about that and it’s making me mad becomes I’m having the thought that my coworker is wrong, and I’m feeling anger.” And don’t forget the value of taking a break. The more time you give yourself to process your emotions, the less intense they are likely to be.

(HBR Podcast) 5 May 2022 --- Part one of HBR IdeaCast’s special four-part series, Find Joy in Any Job, with Marcus Buckingham on how to design your work to focus on what you love.

  Pricing Strategies for Uncertain Times | HBR IdeaCast 22 Feb 2023 --- Rafi Mohammed, founder of the consulting firm Culture of Profit, says a crisis or recession is not the time to panic and slash prices.

He shares examples of companies across a variety of industries that have created effective price strategies as well as his advice for changing prices in response to Covid-19. Mohammed is the author of The 1% Windfall: How Successful Companies Use Price to Profit and Grow.

  Crate & Barrel CEO Janet Hayes on Weathering Turbulent Times for Retail 05.10.2026 38Min.

  Crate & Barrel CEO Janet Hayes on Navigating Turbulent Times for Retail 16 Dec 2022 --- As CEO of retail giant Crate & Barrel, Janet Hayes has a unique perspective on how the pandemic disrupted consumers’ behaviors and altered attitudes. Lifestyles changed drastically, and so did customers’ demands for their homes and, increasingly, home offices. Crate & Barrel had to nimbly react to—and, ideally, anticipate—these shifts. Hayes says the company weathered the market’s turbulence by staying focused on what remains consistent: customers’ core expectations of value, quality, inspiration, and purpose. This interview part of a series called “The New World of Work,” which explores how top-tier executives see the future and how their companies are trying to set themselves up for success. Each week, Adi will interview a leader on LinkedIn Live — and then share an inside look at those conversations and solicit questions for future discussions in a newsletter just for HBR subscribers.

  When Your Partner Isn’t Giving You the Support You Need | Women at Work | Podcast 04.10.2026 55Min.

  Before you got engaged, or had a child, or moved across the country for your partner’s job, did you sit down and ask each other questions like, What makes for a good life? and How much work is too much? Yeah, neither did we. These are the sorts of conversations that researcher Jennifer Petriglieri says lay the foundation for couples, especially working parents, to have a mutually supportive relationship and satisfying, if demanding, careers.Uploaded 09-11-22A woman named Rebecca remembers talking with her husband in depth about their values and goals early on in their relationship. It was a conversation that felt abstract at the time…and never happened again. They now have two young kids, and Rebecca is stepping into a new leadership role. She feels like she’s not getting enough practical and emotional support from her spouse, and isn’t sure how to attain it. So, we asked Jennifer to share her expertise and advice.We give Rebecca (and anyone in a similar situation) a framework for processing the career-family tension she’s feeling, as well as ideas for resolving it.Guest:Jennifer Petriglieri is an associate professor of organizational behavior at INSEAD and the author of Couples That Work: How Dual-Career Couples Can Thrive in Love and Work.Resources:• “How Dual-Career Couples Make It Work,” by Jennifer Petriglieri• “Why Working Couples Need to Talk More About Power,” by Jennifer Petriglieri• “Couples That Work,” by Women at Work• “When We Make All (or Most of) the Money,” by Women at Work• “How to Have a Relationship and a Career,” by HBR IdeaCastSign up for the Women at Work newsletter.Email us: [email protected] to all Women at Work episodes here: [YouTube playlist link]You can also listen to this episode on HBR.org, and wherever you listen to podcasts: - HBR.org (transcript available here): https://hbr.org/podcast/2022/11/when-your-partner-isnt-giving-you-the-support-you-need - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/when-your-partner-isnt-giving-you-the-support-you-need/id1336174427?i=1000585385616 - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/1RjP4YqhnPWeH932LvEFvp?si=151ba63e06e4432d - Stitcher: https://www.stitcher.com/show/women-at-work/episode/when-your-partner-isnt-giving-you-the-support-you-need-208311946 - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cDovL2ZlZWRzLmhhcnZhcmRidXNpbmVzcy5vcmcvaGFydmFyZGJ1c2luZXNzL3dvbWVuLWF0LXdvcms/episode/dGFnOmF1ZGlvLmhici5vcmcsMjAxOC0wMS0xNzp3b21lbi1hdC13b3JrLnM4LjAwMDA0?sa=X&ved=0CAgQuIEEahcKEwjA2L63np_7AhUAAAAAHQAAAAAQAQ Series Description: Women face gender discrimination throughout our careers.

This video was recorded live on June 22, 2020.

  The Reality Beneath Imposter Syndrome | Christine vs Work 04.10.2026 15Min.

  The Truth Behind Imposter Syndrome | Christine vs Work 17 Nov 2023 --- What if we’ve been going about imposter syndrome all wrong? Typically, imposter syndrome is framed as something an individual should mentally tackle, but there’s something much larger underneath these personal feelings of insecurity, doubt, and fear. The concept itself (described as “imposter phenomenon”) was coined in a psychology study from 1978. What was that study about, why has imposter syndrome become so popular, and what have we learned since then? I sought answers from Jodi-Ann Burey, a speaker, writer, and podcaster working in the intersections of race, culture, and health equity. If you have feelings that are commonly attributed to imposter syndrome, Jodi-Ann suggests asking yourself questions to better identify the root cause of these “imposter-y” sensations—whether what you’re feeling is simply a natural human response to acclimating to a new challenge or, more seriously, a indicator that systemic discrimination needs to be addressed. 00:00 Have you felt this? 00:52 Meet Jodi-Ann Burey 01:20 Where does this word come from? 01:50 Here' what the study says 03:41 Who is this affecting? 05:48 How to handle the real feelings 07:27 Ask yourself these questions 09:45 How do I share this information with others? 10:21 How to (really) stop imposter syndrome This video originally published on HBR's Ascend YouTube Channel in August, 2022.

  How Industry Competition Theory Can Help Address U.S. Politics 04.10.2026 7Min.

  How Industry Competition Theory Can Help Fix U.S. Politics 26 Oct 2020 --- Unhealthy competition is at the root of political dysfunction. Applying a famous business framework can help identify the best ways to fix it. Although people tend to think of the American political system as a public institution based on high-minded principles, it’s not. Politics behaves according to the same kinds of incentives and forces that shape competition in any private industry. Our elections and our legislative systems are drowning in unhealthy competition: The political-industrial complex wins, and the public interest loses. Business, in pursuing its short-term interests, has become a major participant in the politics industry, exacerbating its dysfunction. We can have healthy competition in politics—results, innovation, and accountability—by redesigning how we vote to connect acting in the public interest with getting reelected. Katherine Gehl's application of Michael Porter’s Five Forces framework illuminates the root causes of political dysfunction and points to the most powerful levers for transformation. For more, see Katherine Gehl and Michael Porter's book, "The Politics Industry: How Political Innovation Can Break Partisan Gridlock and Save Our Democracy", at https://amzn.to/2HB12Cu --------------------------------------------------------------------- At Harvard Business Review, we believe in management.
