Me and 85 Broads
I'm told it was more like 75 young women in the room, but the potential and energy I felt there was certainly much much more.

The "2Bs": Buffett. Basics.
The subprime mess gets nastier by the day. I've seen recent estimates of the fiscal damage alone exceeding $1 trillion. (Not enough pain to reduce Wall Street bonuses, mind you—a record $39 billion in performance-based handouts expected.)

Business Book of the Year?
The FT has out its "long list" of nominees for the FT/Goldman Sachs Business Book of the Year. The picks aren't too surprising (despite being forced to leave out the FT's own Gillian Tett's excellent Fool's Gold), with a cross-section of financial crises and management self-help books, leavened by one peak-oil text and a few internationalization works.

Leaders and Top Performers: Should You Build Your Own or Steal from a Competitor?
Is your organization better off stealing star employees from a competitor, parachuting a leader in from outside or would it be better to grow your own stars and develop leadership from within?

BRIC Countries: Unified in their Hatred of the Dollar
The BRIC ETF (EEB) and the US dollar have an inverse relationship; that is when the dollar is going down, the BRIC ETF is going up and vice versa. So it makes sense that some of the BRIC countries would like us to have a weak dollar. But yet we always hear that China is concerned about our weak dollar? What gives? What do they want from the dollar?

With More Bankers Laid Off, What Can Small Business Franchises Offer?
Of all industries stung by recession, the banks have possibly been hit the hardest. But that doesn’t mean there’s no hope for bankers who have been let go.

Surviving a Down Economy: Failure is Not an Option
Every company must take a serious look at their operations and decide if they need to make serious and deeply painful cuts or if their best strategy is to make minor adjustments and simply push forward. Either way, every company owner or president must move forward and lead with a certain conviction and strength of will. That conviction must be felt by every manager and employee in the company.

Branding Your Firm At Every Touchpoint
The most important assets of any business are intangible: it’s company name, brands, symbols, slogans, and their underlying associations like perceived quality, awareness, customer base and proprietary assets (e.g., patents, trademarks, etc.). Companies that understand this put significant energy into every detail of their brand and charge enormous premiums for the brands they create. Over time, this premium is transferable to the next owner. A little upfront planning and skillful management can deliver long lasting results.

III. E-COMMERCE AND SMALL ENTREPRENEURS
The share of value added that potentially lends itself to electronic commerce represents around 30 per cent of GDP, most importantly distribution, finance, and business services (Pérez-Esteve and Schuknecht, 1999). E-commerce is also likely to boost international flows of many services significantly.

Getting Sach'd
Recently Greg Smith submitted his resignation from Goldman Sachs in a rather public way, with an op-ed in the New York Times. His diatribe against the abuses of a culture he described as "not right" led to an outpouring of emotion that will reverberate around the financial world and social media for years.

Tracking The Value Of Diversity Programs: Organizational Perspectives
The shortage of documented financial or performance results for diversity programs makes it difficult to determine what works and what doesn’t. Are there any models for companies to follow? "Not yet, says Guillermo Hysaw, vice president of diversity for Toyota Motor Sales, USA. Hysaw, who is managing his company’s newly announced 10-year, $7.8 billion diversity initiative, freely admits that he’s not sure whom to benchmark against. "Nobody is doing an outstanding job in diversity," he says. Here’s a brief look at how five companies--all among the largest and most successful in their industries--structure and evaluate their diversity programs.

Foreign Investment in India
At present, India's GDP is USD 1.237 trillion, which makes it the twelfth-largest economy in the world at market exchange rates and fourth largest in purchasing power. In the late 2000s, India's economic growth has averaged at about 7.5% a year. A 2007 Goldman Sachs report has projected that "from 2007 to 2020, India's GDP per capita will quadruple, and the same will surpass the GDP of the United States of America before 2050." The country managed a reasonable economic growth of 6.1% during the first quarter of the current fiscal (2009) despite the global financial crisis. India's annual GDP growth is likely to accelerate to 7.2% in the next fiscal and further accelerate until reaching a pace of about 9% in the year 2012-2013. India is the seventh-largest country in terms of geographical area, the second-most populous country.
