See Joshua Spodek on understanding North Korea from a business strategy perspective in Beijing

My friend Sebastian organizes Lectures on Strategy, strategy talks to entrepreneurs and other strategists in Beijing, and invited me to speak to his group. If you're in Beijing, see me speak April 22 at 4pm, near the Shuangjing subway stop. RSVP to me or Sebastian (sebastian at sebastianmarshall.com) for details. I'm basing it on my talk at Columbia Business School last month, using mostly the same slides. He plans to record it, so I expect to post video eventually. Edit: Sebastian posted the video of the talk on his site and I wrote a bit about the discussion that followed.

See me speak on North Korea in December!

EDIT: the updated details are here -- but, in short, Sunday, December 4, 7pm, 5 Crosby Street #5H in Soho. I will speak on North Korea at the next Fred Talk, December 4. Fred Talks are riveting and awesome, plus you meet amazing people there. And they get good pizza. The specific time and place haven't been set, but they are usually at 136 Lawrence Street in Brooklyn, right across the street from a subway stop or in Soho. Plan to arrive around 7:30pm. Bring your own beer. Put it on your calendar. I'll put the details here when I know them, along with the other speakers and topics.

See me speak on creativity!
Fred Invitation for Saturday. Come!

See me speak on creativity!

See my Fred talk this Saturday, April 23, 7:30pm at 136 Lawrence Street, Brooklyn. From my previous post about the talk (before it was rescheduled to this Saturday): Fred talks are do-it-yourself Ted talks with the slogan "Your friends' ideas worth spreading."

You probably learned more from your grandmother than most of your teachers, let alone famous people you don't know. Let's do it ourselves! Sharing locally can do things pristine, beautifully-produced things can't. Who isn't a fan of do-it-yourself community building? A big part of why I'm doing it is that the people behind it give me the feeling they may make Fred talks huge. Maybe huger than…
