As Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield points out: in the 1960s, the average S&P 500 company lasted 33 years. By 2020, that number is expected to drop to only 12 years. How can legacy companies best navigate today’s disruption? In many cases, it comes down to building better teams. Edith Cooper, a senior finance executive who spent more than 20 years on Wall Street, most recently overseeing more than 30,000 people as Goldman Sachs’ global head of human capital management, will join Butterfield for this exploration of creating lasting, high performance organizations.
