If You Can't Lead People, Innovation Won't Save You

Good vs Nice: Why Modern Leadership Requires Boundaries

At NEWTON University, in strategic partnership with the Czech Management Association (ČMA), we are challenging the long-standing myth of the untouchable leader.

When dealing with a manipulator, you must not go on the offensive

We encounter some form of manipulation almost every day. Most of us manipulate unconsciously, and only 20 percent of people are pathological manipulators. Unfortunately, it is these disturbed personalities that you may meet at work or are part of your family. Most often, a sense of power, a learned pattern of behavior, or a fear of failure is behind the manipulation. And some people simply enjoy it. But for everyday communication, manipulation is devastating, and if you can't fight back, it will grow into frustration, sadness, induce fear and anxiety, and attack your person and competence.

Spark innovative thinking: A week when students from 12 universities became entrepreneurs

Then you sit down with them at one table and start building a business that must hold up in front of an audience by the end of the week. No previous knowledge, no comfort zone. Just five days, a lot of energy, and a sharp deadline.
