Rebuilding Through Social Enterpreneurship
On television in Bangladesh, I watched with great sadness the horrors Katrina unleashed on New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. I was so tempted to be there to participate in post-disaster activities, as we have so much experience with these kinds of disasters. But I knew my American friends did, too. Having studied at Vanderbilt and traveled extensively in the affected areas names of places and faces of people were so familiar. A friend of mine from Ecuador even sent me a picture taken in Biloxi 39 years back to remind ourselves that we were there!
Crisis Leadership Lessons
Leadership in normal times is relatively easy. The real test of a leader's ability is how he/she reacts in time of crisis. The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has provided the disaster and the media has provide the snapshot of leadership or the lack thereof. While there are many lessons that current or prospective leaders can learn, let's start with the most glaring error and the easiest one to remedy.
Third Generation Leadership - why we need it NOW!

Pinpointing BP's Pitfalls: 8 Ways to Reconnect After a Disaster
Maribeth Kuzmeski offers advice on how they could have better connected with the public throughout the spill-and explains the lessons you can learn from them. For the past two months, our eyes have been glued to news of the Gulf Coast oil spill. And with each barrel that gushes into the Gulf, our anxiety and frustration rises exponentially. Much of our ire is aimed squarely at BP. With each day that passes, the oil company is buried deeper in a disaster that will surely be difficult to overcome. And according to Maribeth Kuzmeski, what makes the situation worse is how BP has chosen to connect with the media and the public during these critical days-resorting to misleading information, poor communication, and neglect in order to dodge responsibility for the spill.
Talent, Communication, and the BP Oil Spill
Tony Hayward, CEO of BP, has had a pretty rough couple of weeks. His response to the grilling by congress and his handling of communications surrounding the Gulf of Mexico oil situation was tone deaf to say the least – at least to US ears. And yet Tony is obviously a very talented guy. After all you don’t get to be CEO of BP by being a slouch. So what went went wrong? One of the hypotheses that have been circulating in the media is that there is a culture difference between the UK and USA on the use of language.

What's With The Party-Pooper In Chief?
Normally I'm very supportive of our president. After all, he has the toughest job on the planet, and it must be incredibly difficult to get up every day and do the often-self-abasing things he has to do to get the job done (meaning, get re-elected with a record of "governance" like his). But he's really dropped the ball on this Keystone Pipeline thing. I mean, Mardi Gras is right around the corner, and he's depriving the gulf states of the smoothest Got-danged beer out there....
Casualty Losses
Hurricane Ike inflicted a steep penalty on the Texas Gulf coast. However, there is an inconspicuous benefit – casualty loss tax deductions. Taxpayers may be able to take a 2008 deduction if either personal or business property was damaged by Hurricane Ike.
