How to Motivate & Empower Others – Insights from Prof. Adam Galinsky’s Inspire

Prof. Olav Sorenson, Joseph Jacobs Chair in Entrepreneurial Studies, Professor of Strategy, and Faculty Director of the Price Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation at UCLA Anderson School of Management, shares insights from his research on "The Causal Inference Problem: When Can Managers Use Data to Inform Decisions, and How Can Organization Design Help Them?"

Managers often rely on data to guide strategic decisions, but data alone does not always reveal clear cause-and-effect relationships. This challenge, known as the causal inference problem, arises when correlations in data do not necessarily imply causation. Prof. Olav Sorenson explores when managers can confidently use data to inform decisions and how organizational design can improve their ability to distinguish causation from mere association. By structuring organizations to facilitate controlled experimentation, encourage diverse data sources, and reduce biases, firms can make more reliable, evidence-based decisions, ultimately enhancing strategic outcomes.

Prof. Sorenson’s primary research focuses on economic geography, exploring how entrepreneurship shapes regional growth and competitiveness and why some regions are more supportive of entrepreneurs than others. Reflecting on his journey, he shares: "I was in graduate school in the mid-1990s at Stanford, in Silicon Valley, and it seemed like everybody and their brother was getting involved in a startup. That’s really what got me interested in entrepreneurship and in asking, ‘Why Silicon Valley?’ What made it different from other places?” 

He has highlighted the unexpected consequences of social capital's critical role in entrepreneurial success. In recognition of his groundbreaking research, Prof. Sorenson was honored with the 2018 Global Award for Entrepreneurship Research. Prof. Olav Sorenson is a distinguished scholar with over 100 published papers and nearly 400 research presentations on entrepreneurship, economic geography, and innovation. His work has been featured in top journals like Science, the American Journal of Sociology, and Strategic Management Journal. He currently serves as Faculty Research Director at UCLA Anderson’s Price Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation, focusing on advancing entrepreneurial research and mentoring student ventures. Previously, he held esteemed positions at Yale, the University of Toronto, London Business School, and the University of Chicago, with visiting appointments at leading institutions worldwide.

Prof. Sorenson earned his bachelor’s degree from Harvard University and his master’s and PhD from Stanford University. He has also been awarded an honorary doctorate from Aalborg University.

Decision Failures Uncovered: Prof. Glen Whyte on Why They Happen & How to Prevent Them

What separates organizations that thrive in uncertainty from those that struggle? In this episode, Luca Dellanna - management consultant, researcher, and author - explores how companies can move beyond theoretical decision-making to ensure real-world execution and resilience. 
In this episode, Luca unpacks key concepts like ergodicity, antifragility, and the role of behavioral dynamics in shaping organizational effectiveness. Stating how “Decision-making is only as good as execution,” he emphasizes the need for organizations to create systems that surface problems early and drive real adaptation.
He also challenges the notion that architecture alone can ensure antifragility, suggesting that qualitative insights, cultural alignment, and leading by example are all essential in building adaptable organizations.

In this episode, Luca provides a reality check on common management approaches, indicating why many organizations fail to turn strategy into action. 
He highlights why leadership by proclamation is ineffective without visible commitment, how organizations often create misaligned incentives, and why cultural shifts require more than just top-down mandates. Drawing from real-world examples, he also shares how true organizational change comes from daily, repetitive micro-level decisions.
Tune in, as we discuss how to avoid the cost of irreversible consequences, and instead structure for long-term wins that build anti-fragile organizations prioritizing survival over performance. 


Key Highlights
👉 Decision-making alone isn’t enough, organizations must ensure that strategies translate into real execution and adaptation.
👉 Ergodicity matters because businesses that fail to consider irreversible consequences risk long-term failure by optimizing for short-term gains.
👉 Leadership signals shape culture, as policies and incentives alone won’t drive change.
👉 Antifragility requires surfacing problems early since organizations that proactively address challenges become stronger.
👉 Cultural transformation happens through action, not communication, since top-down mandates fail unless reinforced with direct engagement and behavioural consistency.
👉 Small, deliberate interventions drive systemic change, as focusing on a single key habit can transform an entire organization.
👉 The best organizations blend structure with human insight, as architecture and incentives provide a foundation, but qualitative understanding and direct engagement ensure real impact.

How To Lead Through Times of Crisis

In this week’s episode, host Kristin Hayes talks with Emily Theokritoff, a research associate at Imperial College London. Theokritoff specializes in climate damage attribution—the emerging science of connecting human activity and climate change to extreme weather events. Theokritoff breaks down this evolving field of study, how research that attributes extreme weather events to climate change is conducted, the challenges posed by a lack of historical data in parts of the world, and how scientists deal with uncertainty in determining the causes of past and future events. She also shares her perspective on how scientists in the field of extreme weather attribution are adapting research and communication methods to provide the public with faster, clearer insights in the face of increasingly frequent and intense extreme weather events.

Connecting Climate Change to the Weather We See, with Emily Theokritoff

In this week’s episode, host Daniel Raimi talks with Laura Grant, an associate professor at Claremont McKenna College. Many environmental nonprofit groups have been working to influence policy, but relatively little research has demonstrated how the efforts of these groups shape policy outcomes, and how some groups may support, catalyze, or even substitute for government action. In this episode of Resources Radio, Grant discusses new research that aims to better understand the work of environmental nonprofits, including various methods that environmental groups use to advance progress on key environmental issues, from headline-grabbing protests to litigation and research.

How Environmental Groups Influence Policy, with Laura Grant

Prof. Jeffrey Lees, Assistant Professor of Organizational Behavior in the Faculty of Economics and Business at the University of Groningen, shares key insights from his compelling research titled: “Breaking Free from Belief Traps: How Misconceptions Shape Organizational and Environmental Outcomes.”

In this work, Prof. Lees delves into how deeply held - but often inaccurate - beliefs influence decision-making within organizations and broader environmental systems. His research explores the psychological mechanisms behind these belief traps, their impact on group dynamics, strategic choices, and long-term organizational health, and how recognizing and addressing them can lead to more effective leadership, communication, and sustainable outcomes.

His research utilizes experimental methods to study belief traps how inaccurate beliefs drive negative outcomes for organizations, the environment, and politics. He examines the psychological and social roots of belief traps, their role in organizational inaction and political conflict, and strategies to counter them through targeted interventions.

Prof. Jeffrey Lees earned his Ph.D. in Organizational Behavior and Psychology from Harvard Business School. He later served as a Visiting Professor at Clemson University and as an Associate Research Scholar at Princeton University.

How Great Leaders Decide: Prof. Andrew Likierman on Smarter Leadership Decisions

In this episode, Ricardo discusses the concept of "silent success" in projects. Managers often highlight dramatic stories: impossible deadlines met, small teams overcoming limitations, or difficult clients. These narratives attract attention, but true success can be more discreet: well-managed risks, on-time deliveries, a motivated team, and aligned stakeholders. Without memorable crises, this work is often seen as luck or an easy project, when in fact it results from careful planning, constant communication, and early strategic decisions. Ricardo warns that it's necessary to review metrics and value these managers, as they are the ones who truly deliver the expected results, without relying on the spectacle of the crisis.
Listen to the podcast to learn more.

What to Do When Everything in the Project Goes Right and No One Notices

Neste episódio, Ricardo discute o conceito de “sucesso silencioso” em projetos. Muitas vezes, gestores destacam histórias dramáticas: prazos impossíveis cumpridos, equipes pequenas que superam limites ou clientes difíceis. Essas narrativas chamam atenção, mas o verdadeiro sucesso pode ser mais discreto: riscos bem gerenciados, entregas no prazo, equipe motivada e stakeholders alinhados. Sem crises memoráveis, esse trabalho é frequentemente visto como sorte ou projeto fácil, quando na verdade resulta de planejamento cuidadoso, comunicação constante e decisões estratégicas antecipadas. Ricardo alerta que é preciso rever métricas e valorizar esses gestores, pois são eles que realmente entregam os resultados esperados, sem depender do espetáculo da crise.

Dr. Per Hansen, Professor of Business History at Copenhagen Business School, shares insights from his acclaimed book “There Will Be the Devil to Pay: Central Bankers, Uncertainty and Sensemaking in the European Financial Crisis of 1931.”

The European financial crisis of 1931 marked a turning point in twentieth-century economic and financial history.

It presents a compelling narrative of how these key actors grappled with uncertainty and sought to make sense of unfolding events. Contributing to the growing body of work on radical uncertainty and narrative economics, the book illuminates how decision-makers confront ambiguity, construct narratives, and transform interpretation into actionable knowledge.

My main focus is implementing innovative global initiatives, capital projects, and product development. I have directed dozens of projects across industries and continents, managing more than $20 billion in global initiatives over the past 25 years.

I am a seasoned board member who has participated in the Brazilian Institute of Corporate Governance (IBGC) board member program. I was the first Latin American to become chairman of the board of the Project Management Institute globally, where I served for four years. I am also a member of the advisory board of Yera, an Estonian startup dedicated to improving employee performance and engagement through technology and artificial intelligence.

I share my expertise with millions of professionals around the globe through my "5 Minutes Podcast," which I have hosted since 2007 and has reached 12 million views. I've written 16 books on project management, risk and crisis management, and transformation, which have been translated into six languages and sold over half a million copies.

I am a seasoned speaker and have delivered over 250 keynote addresses in 40 countries. My influence on the sector was affirmed when I became the first Latin American to be elected Chairman of the Project Management Institute.

My work as a venture capitalist and entrepreneur in artificial intelligence, blockchain, big data, chatbots, and machine learning resulted in tools and products that have revolutionized how users bring agility and agile management into project management software.
