| 10/21/26 |  The Founder Is the Prize: Pitching Delta CEO Ed Bastian | What does it take to be a founder?

| 10/14/26 |  Featuring the HBR IdeaCast: HBS Legend Nitin Nohria on the Biggest Surprises CEOs Face | Becoming CEO may be the ultimate career goal for many executives. But the job itself can be radically different from what aspiring leaders expect. Nitin Nohria has spent more than three decades studying CEOs and working with them in Harvard Business School’s workshops for new chief executives. In his new book, The CEO: The Role, the Reality, the Responsibility, he explores the realities of the job—and the surprises that even highly experienced executives encounter once they reach the top. In this episode of the HBR IdeaCast Nohria shares with host Alison Beard why CEOs quickly discover that they can't actually run the company themselves, and why CEOs are particularly vulnerable to being insulated from reality: information tends to become increasingly “sugarcoated” as it travels up the organization. Plus, the importance of humility, building the right senior team, and managing the CEO's most precious—and finite—resource: time.

| 10/7/26 |  Not Born a Founder: How Brian Halligan Built HubSpot | What does it take to be a founder? Brian Halligan co-founded HubSpot and pioneered inbound marketing. Today, the company generates more than $3 billion in annual revenue. But before starting HubSpot, he was a sales executive who didn't have the confidence to become a founder. He wasn't born one. He learned how. This is The Founder Mindset, with Reza Satchu. -- Harvard Business School Foundry is a venture-building platform for high-potential founders.

| 9/23/26 |  Proven, Better, New: Mark Pincus on Control and Betting on Yourself | What does it take to be a founder? Mark Pincus doesn't believe in the lightning bolt: the one brilliant idea that changes everything. He built Zynga, the social gaming giant behind FarmVille and Words With Friends, and sold it for $12.7 billion. Before that, he'd already built three companies: one sold, one went public, and one failed. He turned it all into a framework: Proven, Better, New. And a habit most founders resist: assume your idea is wrong, and test it faster than anyone else.

| 9/16/26 |  Featuring "The Parlor Room Presents: Hello AI": Linda Hill on Leading Through AI-Driven Change | In this episode of The Parlor Room Presents: Hello AI, host and Harvard Business School Online Creative Director Chris Linnane speaks with HBS Professor Linda Hill about why AI adoption depends on more than technology. Drawing on her research, Hill explains why leaders must rethink the way work gets done, teams collaborate, and organizations build the trust and capabilities to use AI effectively—and why the most successful companies treat AI as an opportunity to redesign work, not just automate it.
