  • WHY COMPETITION in the POLITICS INDUSTRY IS FAILING AMERICA a Strategy for Reinvigorating Our Democracy
    SEPTEMBER 2017 WHY COMPETITION IN THE POLITICS INDUSTRY IS FAILING AMERICA A strategy for reinvigorating our democracy Katherine M. Gehl and Michael E. Porter ABOUT THE AUTHORS Katherine M. Gehl, a business leader and former CEO with experience in government, began, in the last decade, to participate actively in politics—first in traditional partisan politics. As she deepened her understanding of how politics actually worked—and didn’t work—for the public interest, she realized that even the best candidates and elected officials were severely limited by a dysfunctional system, and that the political system was the single greatest challenge facing our country. She turned her focus to political system reform and innovation and has made this her mission. Michael E. Porter, an expert on competition and strategy in industries and nations, encountered politics in trying to advise governments and advocate sensible and proven reforms. As co-chair of the multiyear, non-partisan U.S. Competitiveness Project at Harvard Business School over the past five years, it became clear to him that the political system was actually the major constraint in America’s inability to restore economic prosperity and address many of the other problems our nation faces. Working with Katherine to understand the root causes of the failure of political competition, and what to do about it, has become an obsession. DISCLOSURE This work was funded by Harvard Business School, including the Institute for Strategy and Competitiveness and the Division of Research and Faculty Development. No external funding was received. Katherine and Michael are both involved in supporting the work they advocate in this report.

  • Museum of the Moving Image to Honor Nbc's Brian
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MUSEUM OF THE MOVING IMAGE TO HONOR NBC’S BRIAN WILLIAMS AND KENNETH LOWE OF SCRIPPS NETWORKS INTERACTIVE ON JUNE 2 AT THE ST. REGIS HOTEL Astoria, NY, April 4, 2011 — Herbert S. Schlosser, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Museum of the Moving Image, announced today that Brian Williams, Anchor and Managing Editor of NBC Nightly News , and Kenneth W. Lowe, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Scripps Networks Interactive, Inc., will be honored at the Museum’s annual black-tie benefit on Thursday, June 2, 2011, at The St. Regis Hotel. Each spring, the Museum holds this event, recognizing two leaders in the media industry. Brian Williams is seen by more U.S. television news viewers on a daily basis than any other American. He has become the most highly decorated evening news anchor of the modern era, and NBC Nightly News is the most-watched newscast in all of television. Williams’s coverage of world events has earned him high praise and several citations for journalistic excellence, many of which were awarded for his work covering Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath. The New York Times said his reporting of Katrina was “a defining moment,” and Vanity Fair later called his work “Murrow-worthy” and reported that during the crisis he became “a nation’s anchor.” Williams joined NBC News in 1993 after several years working at local stations in Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, and New York City. A few years later, he became NBC’s chief White House correspondent and then anchor and managing editor of The News with Brian Williams on MSNBC and CNBC.
