CEOs get a ton of credit or blame for a companys performance. But the
entire leadership team is vital to success, and any dysfunction is
often overlooked. Sometimes the CEOs leading them dont even see that
theyre not working. Thomas Keil, management professor at the
University of Zurich, and Marianna Zangrillo, a partner at The Next
Advisors, have interviewed more than 100 CEOs and senior executives.
Their research identifies three main types of failing leadership
teams: shark tanks, petting zoos, and mediocracies. And they identify
the pitfalls of each pattern and how to turn those teams around. Keil
and Zangrillo wrote the HBR article Why Leadership Teams Fail.

Chinese scientists suggest sabotage to counter Musk's Starlink

[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=217254&nl=daily]

Chinese scientists have been developing strategies to counter Elon
Musk's Starlink satellites, which they see as a threat. Starlink's
potential use in military confrontations and for spying has led
government-linked researchers to publish dozens of papers in public
journals that explore ways to neutralize the satellites. Concerns have
grown since Russia's 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine, where
Starlink provided battlefield advantages. Some U.S. allies also
question the wisdom of handing strategic infrastructure to a foreign
businessman whose allegiances aren't always clear. Starlink's
dominance in space communications has sparked global efforts to find
alternatives, but no other country or company is close to catching up.
