Mitt Romney and the private equity/consulting practices of Bain Capital at medical equipment company, Dade Behring
11/12/2011
Bain Capital originanted the the merging of management consulting with private equity, for consulting firms to take equity ownership in companies seeking a turnaround. The practice of loading the company with debt, and taking out capital for the investors through a sequence of policy actions, even if this led the company to bankruptcy, became the hallmark of this kind of investing. In most cases this led to large layoffs, was adverse to building human talent in the company, as it was designed solely around generating large and early payoffs for investors. Goldman Sachs was the private equity partner for Bain Capital in the Dade company investment.

China's difficult political-economic choices in the post 2010 period.
01/06/2008
The difficult choices in the new environment- transition to a new leadership, how to change the export model without serious disruptions, how to deal with western demands for balanced global growth, dealing with the inequality and corruption generated in the kind of growth China experienced (by the fiat of the State), opening up freedom of expression to curb corruption and to provide representation for hitherto blocked out voices, transition to freedom of expression and democratic processes without serious disruption to thegrowth needed for employment and improvements in the standard of living across all parts of society and regions, reducing or channelling to constructive ends prevailing nationalistic, anti-western or anti-Japanese sentiment. The new leadership of Xi Jinping and Li Keqiang is expected to be more outward looking than than of Hu Jintao and Wen Biao and comes at atime when China needs to make some difficult choices about future direction.

Play of the Week: The Business of America Is....;Job Cuts?
Wall Street Journal 12/24/2011
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
