Articles of Note
LinkedIn, December 16, 2016:
John D. Rockefeller was the most successful businessman of all time. He was also a recluse, spending most of his time by himself. He rarely spoke, deliberately making himself inaccessible and staying quiet when you caught his attention.
A refinery worker who occasionally had Rockefeller's ear once remarked: "He lets everybody else talk, while he sits back and says nothing. But he seems to remember everything, and when he does begin he puts everything in its proper place."
SmartBrief, December 26, 2016:
This is the time of year when it's really tempting to look forward and outline plans that will make 2017 a banner year for your organization.
Setting new goals and establishing the strategies and budgets that you'll need to achieve them is a reasonable place to start. Another important leadership action is spending time taking stock of 2016, so you can review what you've learned from the pivotal moments and events of the waning year. Perhaps you've developed a better understanding of how to expand your reach in a competitive market. Maybe you've finally cracked the code to create that breakthrough product that your team has been struggling with for months.
But an even more important topic for reflection is what you've learned about yourself as a leader, and how your leadership has shaped the evolution of your team over the last 12 months.
The Atlantic, December 27, 2016:
What happens to employees under female leadership?
Fast Company, January 2, 2017:
A one-item to-do list, smarter ways to email, and productive procrastination: We've gathered the best ways to get more done this year.
The Chronicle of Higher Ed, Academe Today, January 5, 2017:
By Anne Blackhurst, Joyce Ester, Connie Gores, and Barbara McDonald
Women lead nearly half of Minnesota State's colleges and universities. That not only adds diversity at the top level but also inspires other women to dream beyond the future they thought they had.
U.S. universities that fail to deal with work-life pressures will lose talent and face decline.
LinkedIn, January 6, 2017:
I saw Hidden Figures last week. I expected it to be good, and it was. Taraji P. Henson (playing Katherine G. Johnson) and Octavia Spencer (Dorothy Vaughan) rarely disappoint, and singer Janelle Monae (Mary Jackson) came through strong.
Go see it. It was sad, touching and emotional, and its happy ending was based in reality, as these three women actually existed. Their previously unsung accomplishments at NASA created changes the world feels to this day.
The film brought home how much has changed since the 1960s when the U.S. was in a race against Russia to be the first to the moon - and how much has stayed the same. And, aside from a touch of romance and some truly fabulous outfits - we seriously need to bring back those silhouettes and patterns from the 60s - the movie offered three obvious lessons related to diversity in the workplace.
Inside Higher Ed, January 10, 2017:
Survey finds a quarter of presidents have made decisions on taking or turning down jobs based on spouses' expected role. And study finds that much more remains expected of presidents' wives than presidents' husbands.

Advice on making it through a hiring process that tends to reward extroverts.
Inside Higher Ed, January 11, 2017:
Judith S. White provides advice on how to engage more faculty members in leadership roles.
AAMC News, January 11, 2017:
New AAMC Data on Diversity in Medical Education Published
The AAMC has published Diversity in Medical Education: Facts & Figures 2016, an interactive online report with detailed statistical information on race, ethnicity, and gender patterns in U.S. medical education for 2014-2015, as well as nearly ten years of data on select topics.
LinkedIn, January 11, 2017:
During my first few weeks at Google, I read through the internal resumes of my new colleagues, which detailed their work and promotion paths. Google promoted people quickly. Some college graduates who had distinguished themselves had been promoted every quarter for more than a year, and were managers, senior managers, even directors. And I wanted the same type of trajectory.
So I resolved to work as much as possible to achieve it. At the outset, I began to take on other projects. Small things like an extra research project. Or helping a friend with a presentation.
One day, when I thought we needed a basic CRM for our team, I stayed up late into the morning building one, called Toothpaste.
Pretty soon, the extra work began to consume a lot more time. I began to sleep less, going to bed on consistently after midnight, sometimes sleeping only a few hours.

The Last Word
CNN.com, January 1, 2017:
Every day cyber bullies choose a new victim, and today they selected singer Mariah Carey. While performing live Saturday on ABC's "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest," she had a public meltdown on stage. ... And while I don't know what caused the technological issues, I do know that if you are one of the people making fun of Carey today, you likely don't do much public speaking or performing. ...
I am a public speaker for a living. And I know there is nothing worse than experiencing a technological breakdown in the middle of a live performance. ... So here are a set of steps to consider when faced with a similar predicament.
