Prepare for 2021 and build on business models which can capture value. Even if you operate at the center of the curve, find ways to create a Double Play on your One Oasis to create leverages, and capture extra value. The category-kings are members of the edges. Yes, where you operate is even more strategic than the quality of your execution. Watch the video as Tekedia Institute flips 2020, and opens for 2021, our year of Accelerated Growth for members.

In Wall Street, many companies continue to capture value despite the global economic paralysis. Of course, I do expect them to take care of their workers.

Big business has flourished in America, despite the pandemic, and often at the expense of its workers. Between April and September, 45 of the 50 most valuable public companies in the U.S. made a profit, according to a Washington Post analysis. And 27 of those 50 laid off over 100,000 workers, collectively. Many CEOs touted efforts to focus less on shareholders and more on “the well-being of their employees,” but often, that did not occur. The top 50 firms distributed more than $240 billion to shareholders through buybacks and dividends between April and September, per WP data.

Good People, remember to write Admin for your certificate. We do not want to make it automatic as we want to add an experience in the process. Yes, in college, you typically ask for a certificate before one is sent. So, for your Tekedia Institute certificate, write Admin and you will get a link to download it.

More so, members have been asking for reference letters. We require you send your Labs if we do not have them yet. We need a measurable basis to write the letters. So, the three labs including your video project are required. Alternatively, if you did the capstone, let Admin know so that they will prepare the letters.

We want to wish everyone good luck. If there is any help we can offer, let us know. Stay connected with the Institute.
