It is about facing reality, staying grounded, and leading with clarity when things get difficult. For senior leaders, resilience becomes a strategic advantage because teams do not just listen to what leaders say; they watch how leaders respond when uncertainty, setbacks and hard decisions arrive.

I used to think resilience meant being tough enough to…

The thwap-thwap of the rotor blades, the sting of snow crystals pelting your face, the hiss of untouched powder under your skis, a sea of mountains in every direction, the high-fives in the pickup zone. All of it makes your heart beat faster and louder. You feel every cell in your body buzzing. It’s skiing, but better. Selecting the right place to go heliskiing doesn’t have to be a…
Published September 18, 2026 01:04PMI’m hiking alongside several fellow seven-year-olds up a rocky gully below a scorching summer sun. We turn a bend, and suddenly, a marvel of Mother Nature comes into view: a massive expanse of gleaming snow and ice that, despite the heat, stretches on and on. We sprint toward the slushy oasis, and some kids begin pelting each other with snowballs. I reach into my pack, pull out a plastic garbage bag, and then slide down the snowy expanse, my hoots and hollers of pure kid glee echoing off a nearby ridge.This faded memory from 1988 popped…
Apple CEO John Ternus called its new foldable iPhone “the most transformational change to iPhone since the original.” Samsung’s response: meh. Samsung has been mocking the $1,999 iPhone Duo ever since Apple unveiled it, notes the Wall Street Journal. The opening jab arrived with a “Welcome to Foldables” video showing off its own Galaxy Z Fold 8, calling it “the world’s lightest fold.” Once the iPhone Duo went official, Samsung’s tone got sharper. “So far, so same,” the company’s social media account posted. Then came the knockout blow: “Let us know when you’re done reheating our leftovers.” Let us know…

Discovering this for yourself is one reason to join Gravelanza, an all-new running event in…
IHOP just brought its Stuffed French Toast out of retirement after six years, calling it “the number one requested item on social media.” The idea for Chipotle’s new Chili Lime Chips came from watching customers crush bags of chips over their burrito bowls. Taco Bell now lets loyalty members build, name and share their own custom orders through a “Fan Style” menu. None of this is an accident. Franchises are turning viral customer hacks into official menu items — and it’s paying off, according to . IHOP’s same-store sales rose 1.5% in the second quarter. Its Dubai Chocolate Pancakes, which…
Published September 18, 2026 10:15AMTwo weird things happened when I went to my first men’s Bible study in 25 years. First, I was the only person there who pulled out an actual, physical Bible. The Super Bowl champion football player who was also there was reading verses off his iPhone Bible app, which I suppose counts.The second weird thing is what didn’t happen: not once was the word lust uttered. When I ran with the evangelicals in my college days, you could count on the fact that, no matter what topic any particular men’s Bible study session was ostensibly about,…

Published September 18, 2026 08:58AMFrom this summer’s intense wildfires to back-to-back earthquakes to a brewing Super El Niño, one thing is clear: The growing threat of natural disasters is hard to ignore. Supercharged by climate change, events like wildfires, earthquakes, hurricanes, and floods now occur more regularly, often in places that aren’t prepared for them. This reality means billions of people worldwide need stronger preparedness and resilience measures. This new era of heightened risk requires a new era of heightened response, from innovative tools to strong relationships to advanced preparation.

Want more variety in your cream cheese? Kraft Heinz is betting on it. The brand launched three new flavors: Mike’s Hot Honey whipped cream cheese, salted caramel, and a seasonal cranberry orange. The Mike’s Hot Honey version is exclusive to Walmart until it expands to other retailers in January, and the cranberry orange is only around for a limited time.
