The colleges and companies shaping America's leaders
BUSINESS IS EVOLVING FASTER THAN EVER BEFORE, and companies are rethinking the path to the C-suite. Whereas in the past aspiring leaders might earn their stripes by rotating through another part of the business for a year or two, today more top firms are “constantly providing people with new opportunities,” says Stephan Meier, a professor of business strategy at Columbia Business School. To supercharge the pace of skill-building, workers now have to change jobs more frequently. The ability to not only rapidly learn new terrain but also guide teams in overcoming new challenges is becoming an indispensable leadership skill, Meier says.

The subtle art of dying
FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING HIS CAREER from the start, the idea of Pedro Almodóvar's growing older—and using his films to reflect on illness and death—is a bitter pill. None of us relishes thinking about our own mortality. But sometimes it feels worse to think about losing an artist we love. One of his finest, most moving works, 2019's Pain and Glory, reckoned with the nuisances of aging and the trauma of being an artist in crisis. But his first English-language movie, The Room Next Door, delves further into these murky waters. Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton star as Ingrid and Martha, old friends who have been out of touch for a long time. They reconnect when Ingrid learns that Martha is being treated for cancer, and their rekindled friendship veers into complicated territory.

The person behind the pain
IT'S A STRANGE SENSATION, TO END up loving a movie that makes you feel physically uncomfortable for nearly its whole runtime. In Hard Truths, from veteran filmmaker Mike Leigh, Mari-anne Jean-Baptiste plays a woman at war with the world, and herself. She practically vibrates with belligerence: she can't go to the grocery store without having a run-in with the cashier; her husband mostly avoids her; her grown son spends his time locked in his room—his only relief is to leave the house for long walks to escape his mother's angry force field. Why would you care about this woman's story? For much of the film you may be yearning to get away from her. I was.

The conflicts looming over 2025
WHEN DONALD TRUMP TOOK THE OATH OF OFFICE AS President in January 2017, his first foreign policy priority was to get tough on China. The Trump 2.0 Administration will continue that work. But when he strides back into the Oval Office in January 2025, Trump will also become responsible for U.S. management of two dangerous wars, the kinds of hot foreign policy crises he was fortunate to avoid during his first term.

The digital labor revolution
OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS, WE'VE WITNESSED advances in AI that have captured our imaginations with unprecedented capabilities in language and ingenuity. And yet, as impressive as these developments have been, they're only the opening act. We are now entering a new era of autonomous AI agents that take action on their own and augment the work of humans. This isn't just an evolution of technology. It's a revolution that will fundamentally redefine how humans work, live, and connect with one another from this point forward.

CULTIVATING A 'THIRD LIFE'
He was right to worry. These days, the role of coffee shops and bars, libraries and community centers, civic clubs and houses of worship, has faded as the creep of work and domestic obligation in American life has become all but inescapable. According to the 2021 Census Bureau's Time Use Survey, Americans were already spending significantly less time with friends before the pandemic rearranged life entirely. Our collective isolation has only metastasized since then. In 2024, a staggering 17% of Americans claimed to have zero friends, up from 1% in 1990 when Oldenburg was first urging caution.
