View from the top: A leader’s guide to building a dream team
Share this email
Brought to you by Liz Hilton Segel, chief client officer and managing partner, global industry practices, & Homayoun Hatami, managing partner, global client capabilities
The role of chief of staff (COS) originated in government and the military, but it is becoming increasingly common in the business world. The people in this role are not to be confused with personal assistants—rather, they are trusted guides and confidants who can help improve senior leaders’ efficiency, productivity, and problem-solving skills. “The role’s raison d’être is always to enable the principal—typically a CEO but increasingly other C-suite members—to execute their mission,” note McKinsey senior partner Andrew Goodman and coauthors in an article on eight practical actions that can help a COS excel in the role. For example, it’s important to exert influence without playing politics: “The COS has to master a delicate balancing act of being part of the leadership team while retaining independence from it,” caution the authors.
That’s McKinsey senior partner Aaron De Smet and colleagues on how strong leadership teams can boost a company’s growth—while weak teams can do just the opposite. Among company transformations that fail, about a third do so because of leadership behaviors that don’t support the desired changes. “Significant opportunity exists to improve behaviors associated with team effectiveness,” suggest the McKinsey experts. For example, effective teams are likely to align on values, priorities, and ways of working together. Yet while leadership teams agree that such alignment is crucial, only 60 percent of organizations’ team members say that it actually happens.
Building resilience is a high priority for today’s organizations—and creating diversity at the board level can help. “There are no longer any reasons for bottlenecks in increasing diversity,” says Nicolai Tangen, CEO of Norwegian sovereign wealth fund NBIM, in a conversation with McKinsey senior partner Frithjof Lund. NBIM has set clear expectations for the board diversity of its portfolio companies; Tangen believes that diverse perspectives encourage creativity, innovation, and better decision making. “We have started to vote against companies that do not meet the expected levels of diversity,” he says. In a study led by McKinsey senior partner Celia Huber, respondents emphasize the value of diverse backgrounds, experiences, and career paths. “To my mind, it’s a little bit like assembling an orchestra,” says a CEO. “I know I need a bunch of different instruments; whether I have three of one and two of the other—that misses the point. It’s about how all of the instruments blend together.”
In the style of play known as “total football,” all the players ideally possess all the skills that the game requires, allowing for maximum tactical flexibility. The same principle applies to world-class leadership teams, in the view of David Kirk, cofounder of Bailador Technology Investments and a former rugby champion. Mastery of a variety of skills enables individual team members to be both specialists and generalists, says Kirk. “High-performing team members generalize their attitude to team performance. They feel responsible for their performance, for others’ performance, and for team performance. They become leaders.”
Lead by forming strong teams.

It’s tough for companies to grow. One C-suite partnership is especially important.

C-suite collaboration. In an uncertain economy, some marketing leaders are being asked to produce quick wins from their brand-building campaigns. Since running an effective campaign can take multiple years, marketing chiefs need to manage expectations up front, a global beauty company’s CMO says. Success in marketing takes good communication and teamwork among C-suite leaders; however, as one finance chief notes, referencing a recent survey, only 37% of CMOs think it’s important to develop a better relationship with the CFO. [Raconteur]

Partnering for growth. It’s tough for many companies to grow. Prior McKinsey research has found that roughly 25% of companies don’t grow at all. To understand what’s happening inside the C-suites of high- and low-growth companies, we surveyed and spoke with about 100 marketing leaders and 21 CEOs. The relationship between CEOs and CMOs, particularly how CEOs and CMOs both define marketing’s role in shaping growth strategy, is highly correlated to their companies’ performance, McKinsey senior partner Marc Brodherson and coauthors reveal.

Using probability to boost your strategy’s odds of success
Share this email
Brought to you by Liz Hilton Segel, chief client officer and managing partner, global industry practices, & Homayoun Hatami, managing partner, global client capabilities
How your company’s strategy can beat the odds by embracing uncertainty
In business, as in life, uncertainty abounds. And companies today face uncertainty in spades: climate risks, economic shocks, disruptive technologies. Yet even when confronted with this volatile reality, companies still craft strategies that account for just one version of the future—and then hope for the best. A successful strategy heads off uncertainty at the pass by embracing the notion of probability.
Knowing your odds of success before you launch a strategy can go a long way to ensuring how well you execute it. That starts with three key buckets: the capital you start off with, the trends your industry is facing, and the big strategic moves you plan to take. Benchmarking in these areas against the best-performing companies can help you more accurately assess your probability—and increase the odds that your strategy will succeed.
“Uncertainty is the very reason we need strategy,” write the authors of this 2018 classic, and uncertainty isn’t going away anytime soon. To learn how to maximize your odds with certainty and secure your strategy’s success, read Chris Bradley and Sven Smit’s “How to confront uncertainty in your strategy.”Get a grip on uncertainty

Top 9 HTTP Request Methods
GET, POST, PUT... Common HTTP “verbs” in one figure.
HTTP GET
This retrieves a resource from the server. It is idempotent. Multiple identical requests return the same result.HTTP PUT
This updates or Creates a resource. It is idempotent. Multiple identical requests will update the same resource.HTTP POST
This is used to create new resources. It is not idempotent, making two identical POST will duplicate the resource creation.HTTP DELETE
This is used to delete a resource. It is idempotent. Multiple identical requests will delete the same resource.HTTP PATCH
The PATCH method applies partial modifications to a resource.HTTP HEAD
The HEAD method asks for a response identical to a GET request but without the response body.HTTP CONNECT
The CONNECT method establishes a tunnel to the server identified by the target resource.HTTP OPTIONS
This describes the communication options for the target resource.HTTP TRACE
This performs a message loop-back test along the path to the target resource.
Over to you: What other HTTP verbs have you used?

The diagram below lists the top 6 log parsing commands.
GREP
GREP searches any given input files, selecting lines that match one or more patterns.CUT
CUT cuts out selected portions of each line from each file and writes them to the standard output.SED
SED reads the specified files, modifying the input as specified by a list of commands.AWK
AWK scans each input file for lines that match any of a set of patterns.SORT
SORT sorts text and binary files by lines.UNIQ
UNIQ reads the specified input file comparing adjacent lines and writes a copy of each unique input line to the output file.
These commands are often used in combination to quickly find useful information from the log files. For example, the below commands list the timestamps (column 2) when there is an exception happening for xxService.

Uncertain winter. The travel sector thrived during the bustling summer months. Airlines took in historically high profits, while European and US hotels saw the return of guests at levels that nearly matched prepandemic occupancy rates. Now, though, the sector is grappling with uncertainty over the coming winter. European executives are mostly optimistic; they expect continued spending on travel even in the face of high inflation. Some US companies, however, point to softening demand. One low-cost airline reported having to rely on “steep discounting.” [FT]

In the old days of software development, getting an application from code to production was slow and painful. Developers struggled with dependency hell as test and production environments differ in subtle ways, leading to code mysteriously working on one environment but not the other. Then along came Docker in 2013, originally created within dotCloud as an experiment with container technology to simplify deployment. Docker was open-sourced that March, and over the next 15 months it emerged as a leading container platform.
In this newsletter, we’ll explore the history of container technology, the specific innovations that powered Docker's meteoric rise, and the Linux fundamentals enabling its magic. We’ll explain what Docker images are, how they differ from virtual machines, and whether you need Kubernetes to use Docker effectively. By the end, you’ll understand why Docker has become the standard for packaging and distributing applications in the cloud.
Tracing the Path from Bare Metal to Docker
In the past two decades, backend infrastructure evolved rapidly, as illustrated in the timeline below:
Reference: Openstack In the early days of computing, applications ran directly on physical servers (“bare metal”). Teams purchased, racked, stacked, powered on, and configured every new machine. This was very time-consuming just to get started.
Then came hardware virtualization. It allowed multiple virtual machines to run on a single powerful physical server. This enabled more efficient utilization of resources. But provisioning and managing VMs still required heavy lifting.
Next was infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) like Amazon EC2. IaaS removed the need to set up physical hardware and provided on-demand virtual resources. But developers still had to manually configure VMs with libraries, dependencies, etc.
Platform-as-a-service (PaaS) like Cloud Foundry and Heroku was the next big shift. PaaS provides a managed development platform to simplify deployment. But inconsistencies across environments led to “works on my machine” issues.
This brought us to Docker in 2013. Docker improved upon PaaS through two key innovations.
Lightweight Containerization
Container technology is often compared to virtual machines, but they use very different approaches.
A VM hypervisor emulates underlying server hardware such as CPU, memory, and disk, to allow multiple virtual machines to share the same physical resources. It installs guest operating systems on this virtualized hardware. Processes running on the guest OS can’t see the host hardware resources or other VMs.
In contrast, Docker containers share the host operating system kernel. The Docker engine does not virtualize OS resources. Instead, containers achieve isolation through Linux namespaces and control groups (cgroups).
Namespaces provide separation of processes, networking, mounts, and other resources. cgroups limit and meter usage of resources like CPU, memory, and disk I/O for containers. We’ll visit this in more depth later.
This makes containers more lightweight and portable than VMs. Multiple containers can share a host and its resources. They also start much faster since there is no bootup of a full VM OS.
Docker is not “lightweight virtualization” as some would describe it. It uses Linux primitives to isolate processes, not virtualize hardware like a hypervisor. This OS-level isolation is what enables lightweight Docker containers.
Application Packaging
Before Docker’s release in 2013, Cloud Foundry was a widely used open-source PaaS platform. Many companies adopted Cloud Foundry to build their own PaaS offerings.
Compared to IaaS, PaaS improves developer experience by handling deployment and application runtimes. Cloud Foundry provided these key advantages:
Avoiding vendor lock-in - applications built on it were portable across PaaS implementations.
Support for diverse infrastructure environments and scaling needs.
Comprehensive support for major languages like Java, Ruby, and Javascript, and databases like MySQL and PostgreSQL.
A set of packaging and distribution tools for deploying applications
Cloud Foundry relied on Linux containers under the hood to provide isolated application sandbox environments. However, this core container technology powering Cloud Foundry was not exposed as a user-facing feature or highlighted as a key architectural component.
The companies offering Cloud Foundry PaaS solutions overlooked the potential of unlocking containers as a developer tool. They failed to recognize how containers could be transformed from an internal isolation mechanism to an externalized packaging format.
Docker became popular by solving two key PaaS packaging problems with container images:
Bundling the app, configs, dependencies, and OS into a single deployable image
Keeping the local development environment consistent with the cloud runtime environment
The diagram below shows a comparison.
This elegantly addressed dependency and compatibility issues that plagued PaaS. But Cloud Foundry did not adapt to support Docker images fast enough. This allowed Docker images to proliferate in the cloud computing environment.
From Docker to Kubernetes
Docker won early popularity because it innovated in application packaging and deployment. Its initial success was largely due to this novel method of isolating applications in lightweight containers.
As Docker's popularity grew, the company sought to expand its offerings beyond containerization. It ventured to expand into a full PaaS platform. This led to the development of Docker Swarm for cluster management and the acquisition of Fig (later Docker Compose) to enhance orchestration capabilities.
Docker’s aspirations caught the attention of some tech giants. Companies like Google, RedHat, and other PaaS companies wanted in on this hot new technology.

Gen AI is already starting to transform banking. How can leaders take full advantage?
On Point

Central banks explore AI. Central banks around the world, including in Europe and the UK, are considering new uses for AI, such as evaluating media content and generating economic forecasts. A European banking executive in September said that large language models could be employed to assess banking documents, provide policy briefings, and improve public statements by putting them into plain language. Those applications are “only the tip of the iceberg,” of what’s possible, the banking leader shared. [NYT]

Growth and productivity booster. Corporate and investment banks first adopted AI and machine learning decades ago. Now, with gen AI bursting onto the scene, the technology has huge potential in banking, McKinsey senior partner Jared Moon and coauthors say. For instance, banks can improve their competitiveness in client servicing by using gen AI to create documents that are currently produced by hand. All told, productivity and other benefits could add 9 to 15% to corporate and investment banking operating profits, the McKinsey Global Institute finds.
