Moi is an outstanding player, a world-class midfield player. I don't know how many headers he has scored in his career, but we are always a threat on set-plays. When you play against a low block, your pivot players can be higher up the pitch. He's scored a couple from outside the box this season and hopefully he can keep chipping in with goals to win us more games of football.
Sometimes Warren Buffett says something so simple, so obvious, that you almost want to roll your eyes. At 95 years young, he has offered plainspoken advice that has shaped one of the most successful careers in history. But when you hear it, you know it's truth and part of you wonders: Why haven't I applied this yet? When we slow down long enough to sit with some of his wisdom-really let it sink in, not just skim it on our phones-
His career began at ground level, running his own Italian deli, where he learned firsthand how leadership, operations, and customer trust come together in real time. Long hours and daily problem-solving shaped his belief that strong businesses are built through consistency, structure, and accountability. Those early experiences led Anthony to develop a deeper interest in strategy and financial markets. He began studying trends, analysing patterns, and applying disciplined thinking to decision-making.
When Chris Drury made the trade last season for JT Miller to re-join the New York Rangers, the logic was simple, if mildly flawed. Miller is a fiery personality who doesn't accept losing, and the Rangers were doing plenty of losing. Additionally, Miller came at the cost of an oft-injured third line center, a bottom pair defenseman, and a first round draft pick.
In today's rapidly changing work environment, developing trust among team members is crucial for success. Yet, many organizations struggle to foster an atmosphere of collaboration and understanding, often resulting in communication breakdowns, conflicts, and a decrease in productivity. The inability to trust can be the result of misunderstanding, conflicting values, or misjudging others because they trigger us and remind us of a negative situation or experience in our past.
That reflection is "one of the reasons we sometimes do better a little bit," Dimon added, explaining: "I'm relentless: Details, facts, analysis, no bulllshitting, no meetings after meetings, share all the information-put it on the table, put the dead cats on the table-go through system by system by system, get out on the road, visit other companies, they all do things better than you."
A little bit about myself. In my previous life, I was staff platform engineering. I focused a lot of development engineering and everything that basically was the sociotechnical aspect of our technical work. I recently was working as a CTO and co-founder of a startup, and nowadays I'm just doing advisory roles and a little bit of consulting while trying to think about the next big thing. Yes, so happy to be talking with you, Shane.
Denise Kvapil has built her career in environments where decisions are immediate, outcomes are measurable, and accountability is non‑negotiable. From emergency departments to senior executive roles, she has led with a singular conviction: results matter more than rhetoric. "I define success by patient outcomes," she says. "If patients do better and teams grow stronger, then the leadership is working." That philosophy has guided her ascent through clinical practice, hospital operations, and executive leadership across complex healthcare systems.
"It didn't matter if it was March, March was really important because March led to April," he added. "April was really important because it led to May and so-forth all the way up to the start of the season, all the way up to the final games of the season to prepare us for the playoffs and then if we were fortunate enough to make it to the last game, we were so prepared because every day was important."
Many women begin the year with broad ambitions: Do more. Progress faster. Lead better. But without a clear career plan, it is easy to get caught in urgency, competing priorities, and other people's agendas.A strong start to the year is not about doing everything at once. It's about building a focused, realistic plan that aligns with your goals, values, and current season of life.This post outlines a step-by-step approach to planning your career for 2026 so that you can move with clarity rather than pressure.
I must have looked confused because he quickly added, "I don't mean literally." Though I still wonder sometimes... What he meant was simpler and more powerful: start doing the job before you have the title. Take on more responsibility before you're officially given it. This advice has stuck with me through years of career growth, and later when I became a manager myself, I saw exactly why it works.
This became one of the defining moments of my career, culminating in a $4.4 billion transaction to take SolarWinds private with Turn/River Capital. These negotiations exercised my leadership principles, sharpened my judgment under pressure, and expanded my experiences. Negotiations have always been a part of life. Whether it involves your teenager's curfew, your team's priorities, or your board and the future, every negotiation comes down to the same vital tenets: credibility, balance, stamina, and persistence.
A "work jerk" isn't just someone who expects perfection. It's the high achiever whose nervous system runs at lava-like temperatures, who's chronically stressed, and demonstrates urgency as a personality trait. It looks like hair-trigger impatience, micromanaging, sharp feedback, and an automatic reflex to see others as obstacles rather than partners. Work jerk behaviors teach people at work to focus their energy on managing you and your reactions instead of doing good work.

"It just felt like falling off a cliff," Graham, now the founder of Glue Club, said in a recent interview on Lenny Rachitsky's podcast. "Taking risks, accepting the terrible fall and that experience of falling has been more than worth it." Graham described the experience as part of what she calls the "J-curve" - a career trajectory where a risky move leads to an initial drop before eventually producing outsized gains. Visually, she describes it as standing on a ledge, stepping off, sinking briefly, and then rising far higher than where you started - just like the shape of the letter J.
Everyone at the London Stadium as well as millions around the world saw the criticism, abuse and ridicule Slaven Bilic was subjected to last Friday night as we recorded a superb win over West Ham [then managed by Bilic]. What they didn't witness was that same man standing outside the Brighton dressing room afterwards, waiting for each and every one of our players and coaches to offer congratulations and a warm handshake.
La Placita in East San Jose's Mayfair neighborhood was one of those projects. When we acquired the long-neglected, 28,000-square-foot building three years ago, it stood as a symbol of disinvestment along the Alum Rock corridor. What we saw instead was possibility - a future cultural anchor that could hold space for arts and culture, a community health clinic and opportunities for local businesses to grow and thrive.
