Debbie Millman Instagram – “Move fast and break things.” This was an informal motto at Facebook for many years, and it exemplified in ethos in Silicon Valley about how to aggressively conduct business in a rapidly changing world. “Move Fast and Fix Things” is the title of the latest book by the remarkable and legendary duo @francesxfrei and @annemorriss. (I can’t say enough good things about them.) Anne and Frances contend that the equivalence between speed and business excellence is false. The subtitle of their book is “The Trusted Leader’s Guide to Solving Hard Problems.” Frances Frei is a professor of technology and operations management at Harvard Business School and a business strategist for companies like Uber and WeWork. Anne Morriss is a CEO, business coach and author. Together they host the podcast Fixable, which is a must-listen for anyone who wants to learn more about how and why leadership is the practice of imperfect humans leading imperfect humans. In this brand new episode of Design Matters, Frances, Anne and I talk about ambition, resilience, and the courage needed to go towards burning buildings and not away from them.
