Economic sanctions are penalties levied against a country, its officials, or private citizens, either as punishment or in an effort to provide disincentives for the targeted policies and actions.<ul><li>Economic sanctions can range from travel bans and export restrictions to trade embargos and asset seizures. </li><li>They provide a policy tool short of military force for punishing or forestalling objectionable actions. </li><li>Economic sanctions can also be a blunt and ineffective policy tool, imposing insufficient costs on the targeted governments and disproportionate ones on their most vulnerable populations.</li></ul>

Economic Sanctions

<ul><li>Embargoes: broad bans on trading with a country</li><li>Export controls bar the supply of specified products, services, and intellectual property to targeted countries</li><li>Capital controls can restrict investment in targeted countries or industries, or broadly bar access to international capital markets for a country's issuers</li><li>Trade sanctions can include import controls for specific countries, regions, or industries</li><li>Asset freezes: Assets within sanctioning jurisdictions can be seized or frozen, preventing their sale or withdrawal</li><li>Travel restrictions: Officials and private citizens, as well as immediate fa<warningtag>mily members, may be denied travel access to sanctioning jurisdictions. </warningtag></li></ul>

Sanctions Can Take Many Forms

The success of sanctions can be measured by the achievement of the desired policy goals, or simply by their cost to the targeted countries and individuals if punishment is the aim. They can also impose costs on the targeted country's citizens as well as the sanctioning country's companies.If the goal is to change the behavior of targeted countries and individuals, their incentives and options will ultimately matter at least as much as the sanctioning powers' leverage.

The Success of Sanctions

Economic sanctions are a powerful tool in dealing with countries that defy U.S. foreign policy interests or the world order at large.

How Economic Sanctions Work

A strategy is a plan to create value. Value for customers, value for employees, value for suppliers. It is planning for the future. Strategy doesn't begin with a focus on profit. Financials, profitability, return on investor capital is the result of strategy. It is not the starting point.

Strategy is simple

Value is the difference between a willingness to pay and a willingness to sell. This can be shown with a value stick. <ul><li>At the top, we have a willingness to pay.</li><li>At the bottom,  we have a willingness to sell.</li></ul>The difference between the two is the value the company creates. The value is split in three ways:<ul><li>Some go to customers. (The difference between willingness to pay and price.)</li><li>Some go to employees (the difference between willingness to sell and compensation.)</li><li>The middle wedge is the margin of the company.</li></ul>

Value explained

We can create more value in two ways.<ol><li>By increasing the willingness to pay. It describes the customers. It's the most a customer would ever pay for a product or service. Value can be created by focusing on "customer delight".</li><li>By decreasing the willingness to sell. It is the least amount of compensation an employee would accept and still work for this particular company. ]t is a measure of the quality between what someone is looking for in work and what a company can offer.</li></ol>

How to create more value

<ul><li>Product quality. The higher the quality, the more appealing the service, the higher the willingness to pay.</li><li>Product complements. A compliment is a product or service that supports willingness to pay. For example, razor and razor blades, or printer and printer cartridges.</li><li>Network effects. The more popular the product, the more widespread its adoption, the greater my willingness to pay.</li></ul>

Ways to raise willingness to pay

Two ways to be more attractive in the market for talent:<ol><li>Pay more money. When you pay more money, you will be more competitive in the marketplace for talent.</li><li>Make the job a better job. Create more attractive working conditions, for example, better training plan, more generous promotion rules, working some days from home.</li></ol>

How to lower willingness to sell

To many people, strategy is a total mystery. But it’s really not complicated, says Harvard Business School’s Felix Oberholzer-Gee. 00:00 To many people, strategy is a mystery. 00:25 Strategy does not start with a focus on profit. 00:52 It's about creating value. 01:00 There's a simple tool to help visualize the value you create: the value stick. 01:30 What is willingness-to-pay? 02:30 What is willingness-to-sell? 03:14 Remind me: Where does profit come in again? 03:48 How do I raise willingness-to-pay? 05:00 And how do I lower willingness-to-sell? 06:18 Real world example: Best Buy's dramatic turnaround Companies should simplify and focus on two value drivers, he argues: customer satisfaction and employee satisfaction.

What Is Strategy? It’s a Lot Simpler Than You Think

What is Strategy? It’s a Lot Simpler Than You Think

Despite our best efforts, mistakes happen in every facet of life and business. It is easy for startups to make mistakes during their early stages in today's pressured business environment. Experts say that making mistakes can help us learn, grow, and become better versions of ourselves.In spite of this, some mistakes have consequences that cannot be compared to others. The consequences of a startup mistake cannot be compared with those of a large enterprise with loyal customers.Many startups have failed because they failed to understand the importance of branding.

5 Branding Mistakes Every Startup Should Avoid

Knowing your target audience before launching your product can be a great push for your startup. Others, however, argue that waiting to see how your products are received by customers before moving forward with your startup journey can also be beneficial to its success. Even though there is truth to this approach, it doesn't always work for most startups, and I don't recommend it to startups.

#1 Branding Mistake Every Startup Should Avoid. Not Identifying Your Target Audience.

Startup employees mostly use social media to promote their startup products and services. Many of them tweet about new products that are coming out, their beautiful office, and how fantastic their employers are. This approach is more effective than paying for advertising.As a startup, you shouldn't dismiss the efforts your employees make to promote your startup on social media.

#2 Branding Mistakes Every Startup Should Avoid. Ignoring the value of employees

In an attempt to achieve success, startups tend to copy the branding strategies of other successful brands. Unfortunately, taking a copycat approach will only ruin your business.The point of branding is to make your startup stand out from the crowd. Copying the branding strategies of other brands will only make your startup look like a part of them instead of different from them.

#3 Branding Mistakes Every Startup Should Avoid. Trying to be like your competitors

The use of social media platforms by startups can be both a blessing and a curse. It has the potential to give your business the attention it needs, as well as destroy a brand overnight.You should know how to handle your social media activities as a startup. You can ruin your reputation if you make the wrong decisions on social media.

#4 Branding Mistakes Every Startup Should Avoid. Using social media the wrong way.

Establishing a brand guideline for your startup will act as a guide for messaging and decision making. Even though these guidelines don't restrict you strictly, their influence on your choices is inevitable. As a startup, drifting from your brand guidelines can be detrimental.The brand guidelines include your colour scheme, voice, tagline, culture, and anything else that builds your brand and makes it distinct from the competition.

#5 Branding Mistakes Every Startup Should Avoid Failure to Follow Your Brand Guidelines

5 Branding Mistakes Every Startup Should Avoid - Kelvinaryee.com

When organisations need to solve a problem, they may create a task force or advisory committee to develop a consensus around new ideas, such as procedures, policies, products or services. However, research shows that consensus-based problem-solving groups often kill innovative ideas. These groups are prone to groupthink - quick agreement around status quo solutions with little deliberation. Yet, there are exceptions. Not all consensus-based problem-solving groups engage in groupthink.

Consensus-based problem-solving groups

People tend to think that current solutions must be good. As a result, groups tend to move towards the status quo because they are less likely to fail. "It worked before." Groups can overcome groupthink by one member expressing dissatisfaction with the status quo. The words that describe dissatisfaction are called triggers because they can kick start the group embracing new and different approaches. Triggers give members the opportunity to reveal how each member view to problem.

Challenge the status quo

Groupthink can be avoided when one member reacts to the trigger by proposing a placeholder solution. It may not be the final solution but functions as a transitional placeholder that allows the group to think concretely and abstractly.
The placeholder solution allows members a transitional space where play and experimentation are encouraged.

Adopt a placeholder solution

Groups tasked with coming to a consensus can interpret delayed agreement as a lack of progress or failure. Teams that adopt a placeholder solution can agree on the "why " of an idea, even if they have different views about how to execute it. They can frame the lack of final agreement as progress and maintain morale and momentum.

Celebrate progress towards final agreement

Three research-backed strategies to keep innovative ideas flowing.

Dating and starting a business aren't that different. The most important thing in both is making authentic connections. Whether you are looking to close a date or a sale, here are five tips from my love guru mom that can help your business grow into something long-lasting.

Dating Vs Starting a Business 

The statistics on co-founder relationships aren't great. Almost half end within four years. Narrowing down the right partnership was mostly about asking the right questions. When making reference calls for potential co-founders,  skip the former co-workers and talk to their brothers and sisters instead. The success of our business would not depend on great coding skills, but on who the person was at their core.

Dating Your Co-Founder

The best conversations in dating weren't factual (conveying information), but emotional (conveying authenticity).As in relationships, vulnerability was critical. Get real with investors about the struggles of raising funds via Zoom during a pandemic. Instead of talking about accomplishments, share failures.

Dating Investors

When you log on to Zoom, most people are not thinking about settings or how buttons feel where they are. They're thinking about meeting someone new, making a good impression, and building relationships. Some of the best product designers don't design nitty-gritty elements. Instead, they talk about the emotional journey of a user. Great dates don't talk about their hobbies or where they went to college. Instead, they make the other person feel seen. That might mean expressing curiosity in someone's experience growing up in a small town, or gratitude that they chose a restaurant close to you.

Dating Your Product

As you are brainstorming product features, try to focus on how the end-user will feel navigating it and let that be your guide. All of our new features start with a user journey for how we intend to make someone feel. The result is a stronger user experience.

Better User Experience

Just like any budding romance, you want to put your best foot forward by coming prepared. How do you do that efficiently when you're scheduled in back-to-back sales meetings? For a romantic introduction, a matchmaker might hand you a quick summary before your first date. Getting the facts early gives you time to think about who they are and what they might resonate with.

Dating Your Sales Prospect

Why do most people go on first dates? Not to impress someone the most they've ever been impressed, take them to the fanciest dinner, or land the first kiss. Ideally, it's to lay the foundation for a mutually beneficial relationship.The most important thing about "dating for business" is that laying the foundation for a long-term relationship always wins out.  You never know if the person you're meeting will become your next co-founder, hire, or your best friend's future partner. And just like in dating, if you focus on building a relationship, then everything else will be far more fruitful.

People First

The most important thing in both is making authentic connections

What  Do Dating and Starting A Business Have in Common? Ask A Professional Matchmaker

A common trait among self-made millionaires is their ability to create multiple income streams. Multiple income streams help to diverse revenue, withstand economic downturns and expand visibility.

Benefits of creating multiple streams of income

Serial entrepreneurship is overrated: Whether it’s your first or seventh company, entrepreneurship is about choosing the right market at the right momentProduct is king: You can always layer sales on top of product-led growth (existing demand)When scaling a business, founders should directly solve fewer and fewer problems: Hire leaders to grow the business. Delegation allows founders to focus on their strengths & passions.

Startup Advice

Never hedge your bets as a company – if you have two paths, you have no paths. You have limited resources, don’t lower your ceiling with two allocations. Don’t split bets. Always have ambitious and idealistic goals that are balanced with reasonable accountabilityDo you want to be more like Amazon or Apple?Design and innovation are directly influenced by the architecture of your organization, it’s important to know your identityAmazon: Decentralized with an innovation focusApple: Centralized with a design focus

WFIO – “We’re f*cked it’s over”There are many ways this can happen:<ul><li>A legal ruling goes against you</li><li>Apple refuses to approve your application unless you remove your best feature</li><li>Big tech company launches the same as or substantially similar product</li><li>Your most strategic customers stop doing business all at the same time</li></ul>

Your Startup Will Face Multiple WFIO Moments…COUNT ON IT

If you are building a sufficiently ambitious startup with an intended massive impact, you will have WFIO moments.

WFIO moments feel like dying, but your startup can always move forward. With ingenuity and grit, you will find a way out of it.Ben Horowitz’s WFIO moment: In September 1999, Horowitz co-founded LoudcloudAfter the dot-com bubble, the company ran out of money in 2002No private investors would touch them, they couldn’t raise money from anybody. They decided to go public, which was insane at the time. The move felt like cutting your limbs but they found a way through.The company ultimately raised money from public markets and survived.

It’s Rarely as Bad as It Seems

<ul><li>Get it out of your head and onto paper; writing is the best way to calm your “monkey mind“. Writing forces you to stress test the clarity of thinking.</li><li>Share your worries with trusted friends from outside the company, especially if they have experience with WFIO moments in their startups. Don’t make all decisions by yourself.</li><li>Create victory psychology for your team: It is about getting all of the most innovative people in the same room to work with the angle of the problem</li><li>Focus on the path through the obstacles instead of obstacles themselves</li><li>Face the pain head-on</li></ul>

Lessons of Greatness: How to Defeat "We're F*cked, It's Over" (WFIO) Moments

How do you replicate presence?Mark says Meta wants to make the most human thing possible: visual presence, spatial audio, temperature, olfactory system, touch, etc.Meetings over Zoom are a great counter-example to some of the goals at MetaMany Meta product elements are developed based on basic functions of psychology: facial expressions, eye contact, and moreThere will be different use-cases for avatars: photo-realistic vs expressive identities. There is personal and functional utility in being able to customize your avatarThe market for creative commerce around digital clothing could be huge.

Metaverse

All the work that I do is at the intersection of Psychology and Computer Science

The goal of the metaverse is not to build technology for people to interact with; but rather, to build technology for people to interact with each other

What grabs someone’s attention in the near term is not going to grab it over the long term.Making a user angry isn’t going to retain that user, Facebook doesn’t have an incentive to do this. Products are not just their function and utility, it’s their feeling.Subscription products cater towards their audience, they don’t have an incentive to be in the middle–this fuels polarization. Advertising models at least make consumer services free, giving everyone an opportunity to have a voice. Greater polarization has been found in groups that are least likely to use the internet or social media.

The Social Dilemma

An accurate characterization would have been that teens using Instagram are generally positive for their mental health, but of course, that was not the narrative that came out. Mark argues that other tech companies don’t even bother to perform the researchThey want to do the research to improve, not to sweep it under the rug“Objectively speaking, there’s hunger [in the press] to say negative things about social media. And, I don’t understand how that leads to an open conversation about the positives and negatives of social media.

Instagram Whistleblower

You can only build Facebook/Meta if you have the idea that people having the right to express themselves is a good thingVoice + Connection = Opportunit.The challenging thing with free speech is that there is a line, the thing that everyone disagrees on is the definition of real harm. The blame for improper censorship should also be directed at the institutions of the United States that fail to define harm accurately and honestly.Balancing the AI system that proactively regulates harmful content is challenging. It’s no longer a technical problem, simply a philosophical one.

Censorship

I don’t think pressure from advertisers or politicians directly affect how we think about this, these are just hard topics

Think about what you’re excited about for the future. Always keep sight of things that bring you joySurround yourself with people you want to be like. Mark only hires people that he could see himself working for in an alternate universe.This advice expands to your friends and relationships.
