What they like about Viacom:
Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.

Innovator's Dilemma |
By Clayton Christensen, this was the first in a series he and co-authors have written on the challenges and solutions to implementing disruptive innovation in established, successful companies. |
| Outliers |
Malcolm Gladwell looked deeply at what distinguishes people who are at the very top of their fields -- and found that circumstance, plus "10,000 hours" play much larger than expected roles. The book ends with a totally unexpected and very moving personal |
| Blue Ocean Strategy |
This, with Christensen's Innovator series, and perhaps a handful of other titles (to be noted later), should be sufficient for anyone to grasp the foundations of great innovations in business terms and context. |

My current favorite overview of new companies, products and services online. |
| Magazines | |
| Fast Company |
Surviving the dotcom bubble was feat enough, but FC has reinvented itself to stress sustainability and success stories in companies old and new. |
| Harvard Business Review |
I like to think that I have accumulated enough learning from careers and reading HBR over the decades to deserve an MBA. Always stimulating, almost always useful immediately! |
