Editor’s Note: In this appeal to Congress, more than 35 artists, activists, scholars and others call for funding for Ukraine. On territory that Russia occupies, it tortures Ukrainian citizens, kidnaps Ukrainian children and murders Ukrainian leaders. By fighting Russia alone, they protect Europe. By fighting a conventional war against a nuclear power, they are making nuclear proliferation and nuclear war less likely. Together we call upon Congress to do the right thing – right now.

A bird-feeding face mask may seem like a gag gift, but HummViewer's success since appearing on ABC's "Shark Tank" is no joke. "In less than a day after appearing on 'Shark Tank,' we sold out of 1500 units, equaling $102,000 in sales," Joan said. In the eight months after their segment, they brought in $350,000 in revenue and quit their full-time jobs, they said. The couple hoped Lubetzky could help them with retail and marketing, which he did, John said. Being on the show was a "life-changing success that came with some problems at the same time," said Joan.

At job interviews, he screens for self-reflection by asking about past failures and what you, the candidate, would do differently next time. A good answer walks the hiring manager through your thought process so they can see how you evaluate opportunities and solve problems.

Daniel Lubetzky, billionaire founder of Kind Snacks, attributes his success to a simple decision: surrounding himself with people who feel comfortable giving him honest, raw feedback. Lubetzky founded Kind Snacks in 2004, initially running it on a shoestring budget before accepting roughly $16 million of outside funding in 2008. Just over a decade later, Kind was acquired by food giant Mars for a reported $5 billion in 2020. "Environments that discourage hearty debate are shockingly common," Lubetzky says. You should also prioritize people who are "kind" over people who are "nice," Lubetzky says.

Beck launched the company, Rocket Lab, later that same year. Running a rocket company is kind of like that scene in "Indiana Jones," where he's getting chased by that giant ball. What do you wish you'd known when you decided to start your own rocket company? At that time, that was an absurd amount of money for a rocket startup. A rocket startup from someone living in New Zealand was even more absurd.

Hilton CEO Chris Nassetta says selling his black Porsche 944 was the best financial decision he ever made. "I spent all my money on that stupid car." Since 2007, Nassetta has driven something more practical: a four-door Lexus sedan he bought just after landing the top role at Hilton. In 2020, the mechanic called Nassetta to say he'd found someone nearby with the vehicle — but it was barely running. Together, Nassetta and the mechanic spent two years repairing the car, completing the project last May.
That's almost 40% of the total number of CEOs surveyed across 105 countries for PwC's annual global CEO survey. More than half of the CEOs surveyed cited shifts in consumer demand, regulatory changes and labor shortages as challenges to their profitability over the next 10 years. And despite the concerns, most of the company leaders surveyed — 60% — aren't planning any layoffs, at least over the next 12 months. However, the report's prescription for worried CEOs may not bode particularly well for some workers. The surveyed CEOs said they want to make such bold decisions but aren't currently prioritizing them.
Today, Kind is a big name in the snacks industry, reportedly valued at $5 billion when it was acquired by food giant Mars in 2020. There was just a single catch: The deal called for Lubetzky to sell the company within five years. Lubetzky had to assemble $220 million for the deal, a mix of company cash and millions of dollars in bank loans. CNBC Make It: What were you thinking as the deadline to sell Kind approached? I am still a meaningful stakeholder in Kind today, and I still guide them.
