Podcasts with Punch
In May of last year I posted regarding the acquisition of an iPod. It has continued to work out well, expanding the reach and range of the material that I get exposed to and learn from. And it makes good use of the time available when commuting.
I've been particularly struck by a couple of recent podcasts.
The first is from HBR Ideacast.
Redefining Global Strategy: Harvard Business Online's Steve Singer talks with Pankaj Ghemawat, author of the upcoming book Redefining Global Strategy: Crossing Borders in a World Where Differences Still Matter.
The link is an iTunes url.
Ghemawat provides a view of globalization that is substantial different from what one finds in the mass media. In short, he estimates that globalization has perhaps half as much impact as many people think. He also has a companion article on HBR Online, Globalization Myths Versus Reality.
The second is from IT Conversations.
Again, an iTunes url.
Fascinating, provocative examination of the subject of memory, in many forms and with many implications. Remarkable speaker. I could hear no background noise from the audience. Maybe this was just a good recording setup, but I doubt it.
