1. Umair Haque on redesigning organizations so they will create new value (instead of paper profits).
2. Roger Ehrenberg on the coming Wall Street ethics disaster (huge bonuses in spite of bailout). Fundamental problem: misaligned incentives (short term rewards, instead of over time).

3. Howard Lindzon on how crucial the IPO market is.
