24 分钟In this episode, Jesper Sørensen explores why organizational strategy can be both top-down and bottom-up.
Hi Matt here.
If you want to continue finding tools to a successful and happy life, I recommend listening to the happiness lab hosted by Yale professor Doctor Lori Santos.
Doctor Santos has studied the science of happiness and has found that many of us do the exact opposite of what will make our lives better.
Based on the psychology course she teaches at Yale, she will take you through the latest scientific research and share some surprising stories that will change the way you think about happiness.
This season, shes tackling topics that affect her own life like stress, perfectionism and boredom.
If you struggle with any of those, or if it sounds like you could learn more about increasing happiness in your life, then listen to the happiness lab right here in your podcast player.
I passionately believe that strategic communication is critical to success in business and in life.
But we must also think about strategy and how we communicate that.
Many of us focus on our day to day work on just the tasks we need to complete and executing them well.
Taking time to reflect on strategy in our organizations and our own life can help us be successful.
I'm Matt Abrahams and I teach strategic communication at Stanford Graduate School of Business.
