Corporate Thought

Conversation 59: 10xing with Michael Solomon Okay so first things first, is there a Brazilian fire ant? Yes there is! We spend a lot of time discussing 10x people and Michael does a great job of explaining it but here is a little piece of information to add to the discussion. Michael mentioned following a non profit path and worked with a group to create The Kristin Ann Carr Fund to provide grants to research Sarcoma. Michael and Rishon founded 10x Management to provide 10xers in tech with talent management akin to artist management for musicians. Michael mentions going into a flow state. If you want to know more about Flow state, I recommend reading Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. Michael and Rishon also own 10x Ascend and Brick Wall Management I loved Michael’s annual anonymous feedback solicitation. I went searching for more on this idea – a 360 survey of self. If you are interested in Michael and Rishon’s book, it is Gamechanger: How to be 10x in the Talent Economy
