Zuckerberg’s Full Speech; PPR Top 35 in the World; Hiring 7,000 using Topgrading

"…insights for scaleups"

HEADLINES: (Special Edition)

Full Zuckerberg Speech on YouTube — sorry I didn't have it yesterday and wanted you to have Mark's 10-year vision speech to watch over the weekend. Here's the link – I would start at 5:50 where he first mentions his 10-year goal – and 11:50 (for 3 minutes) is an important announcement for businesses as they are making it more seamless for users to communicate directly with us without businesses having to create separate apps. Thanks to JR Williams with Brand You, Inc. for getting me the link.

PPR Named Top 35 Great Workplaces in the World — yes, the world, as named by Gallup yesterday. Noted Dwight Cooper, CEO, in an email to me:

Dwight and his team will once again be in Atlanta at the ScaleUp Summit May 24 – 25 – and I'll have him on stage to share some insights into their huge global win. Congratulations to the entire team at PPR for this well-deserved recognition.

Hire 7,000 Per Year — one key to their success? They are a power user of the Topgrading methodology to hire 7,000 people per year. 40 PPR leaders have been trained on Topgrading through our online course. Notes Terri Cohen, Vice President of General Employment Experiences:

Here's a 3-minute video that highlights their case study. To sign up for this quarter's online Topgrading Master Class (enrollment ends on April 28), email the Growth Institute team at [email protected] to request the program's syllabus.

Have a Great Weekend.
