Every 20 seconds, one million dollars is wasted globally due to the poor implementation of strategy

In one day, that means almost five billion dollars

Two trillion in an year

And just to put this into perspective for you, it's the GDP of Brazil, my native country

You may think I am talking only about profit, shareholder value, lost revenues

No. It's above and beyond that

I'm talking about the world that is facing unprecedented inequality

It's critical now that we manage our efforts to reduce this destruction of value

to benefit people, organizations, and the society in general

This is why we created Brightline

Brightline is a not-commercial initiative of leading organizations that decided to work together

to bridge the gap between strategy design and strategy delivery

It's to bring ideas to life

In order to do that, Brightline will work on three basic areas

The first one is to sponsor and support professional and academic research

The second one is to be a forum where senior leaders come to share ideas and best practices

The third area is to be a platform for professional development on practical and applicable knowledge

I know from my experience that if you have a piece of paper, you can put all your ideas on it

And I am not saying that this is a simple task

But take these ideas from paper and transform them into reality is what really delivers value

It's to make things happen

So I invite you as a leader in your organization to put this topic in your agenda

Because your people are waiting for someone to make big things happen and they cannot do this without you

Finally, let's remember that the line that connects strategy design and delivery is blurred

Let's replace it with a bright line.

Adam Ruins Everything - Why Filing Taxes Is So Hard (Tease) | truTV - Duration: 2:06.

You scared the fudge out of me!

Oh, that's nothin'.

One time I made my friend Emily give birth.

I don't know what that means, but I hate it.

Almost as much as I hate doing my taxes.

Now, what's that you were saying about how taxes could be easy?

Well, think about it.

Taxes are a bill the government charges you,

so why do you have to do all the math? all the math?

all the math?

Imagine if we did that with any other bill.

(doorbell rings)

How much do I owe you?

You tell me.

Divide number of toppings by cheese consumption?

$12?

Wrong! Now you're goin' to jail!

Bogus.

Instead of making you fill out a complicated return,

why doesn't the government just tell you how much you owe?

Well, 'cause they need to know my income,

my interest on my savings...

all the numbers that are on those forms.

News flash! They already do.

Employers, banks, and other financial institutions

already send detailed records to the IRS.

Okay, we just got Hank's W2s and 1099s.

I could calculate his tax bill myself...

Nah, I'll just wait quietly

while he sends me the exact same information.

D'oh!

The government could quite literally

do your taxes for you.

It's an idea called return-free filing.

Instead of the government checking your work,

you'd check theirs,

and it would make taxes more like this.

Ooh, honey, our taxes came.

Oh...

Just need to deduct that work trip to Toledo and we're done!

Hey, think we have time for some wild, bedpost-rattling sex?

Why not? Our April's wide open.

Return-free filing is already used

by countries around the world

and could allow millions of Americans like you

to do your taxes for free in just five minutes.

Yeah, well, those bozos in Washington

would never go for an idea that makes that much sense.

Actually, return-free filing bills

are introduced in Congress all the time,

and both Barack Obama

and Ronald Reagan pushed for it.

Yes, we can.

Tear down this wall...

of paperwork.

(cheering and applause)

Wow... that must be the only thing those guys would agree on.

Here's My Canada: Everyone is Welcomed - Duration: 0:32.

In my eyes, Canada is more than just a country, it's a

place where I was born, the place I grew up and where I

can spend the rest of my years. It's a place

where people of every race are welcomed and

befriended by warm, kind citizens

to find comfort in this hospitality. It's a place where you

don't have to feel afraid to be yourself,

and the opportunity to wear your heart on your sleeve,

with the assurance that someone, somewhere will

always be there to listen. That's what it means to be Canadian.

WATCH: Art Therapy is exactly what people with student loan debt need - Duration: 4:03.

- It should be illegal for an 18 year old to sign

their life away; and that's what I did.

I'm over $120,000 in student loan debt.

- $95,000.

- $75,000.

- It's like a wheel of fortune number; it's a lot.

- $120,000 in debt.

- My student loans make me feel defeated.

- As if I'm at a pretty significant disadvantage.

- My student loans make me aware of our education system,

and how it can be improved for people who

need financial aid.

- Anxious, and trapped.

- [Interviewer] Can you draw a picture to show

how your student loans currently make you feel?

- I'm really bad at drawing, but I would absolutely...

Do you want me to draw it?

- Do you want me to do it on camera?

- You know, if there's no judgment.

If it's a safe space, I'm happy to draw for you guys.

Yeah.

- That would be fun actually.

A little cathartic.

- Sorry guys, this is gonna be painful for everyone.

(scribbles furiously)

- When I was younger I wanted to make cartoons.

You guys are helping me achieve my dreams right now.

- I regret taking out student loans.

If I have kids one day, they're not gonna be allowed

to take out student loans.

- Hell no.

My kids will never, and my brothers will never.

My whole family has learned this lesson.

My grandparents are involved.

- I think that colleges, and even high schools

should teach students about student loans, like

what to expect when it comes to a student loan payment.

- I do not regret my degree, but I do regret

not being smarter about the school choice I made,

and all of the options available to me.

- At 18 years old you're not thinking what you're

gonna be making at 22.

You just think, I'm gonna go to college,

I'm gonna get a degree, I'm gonna move to New York City...

- I was delusional when I was younger.

I was much delusional.

I thought I would just make a lot of money

right out of college, pay off whatever bills I had to pay,

and live my best life.

- This is like the saddest painting I've ever drawn.

So, go?

My student loans make me feel like a sad clown

because clowns are meant to be happy.

- So this is a picture of me with a bunch of dollar signs

in the air, thinking of my loans and me being

fuming and angry about it.

- This is unknown student loan company, we'll just call 'em

Mallie Sae, and they have a lot of money, and I have

a shirt that says broke.

- I'm crying, it's raining, it's awful.

This is a pretty sad scene.

- Climbing, you know, meandering my way through my career.

So we'll see if I can make it up there.

- That's what ended up on the page.

Just (groans)

- It's sad puppy.

And it's not gonna get adopted, and it's just gonna be

walking through life not living to its full potential.

I don't think I'm living to my full potential.

I'm getting emotional now.

It just sucks.

It sucks.

Can I swear?

(bleep) you!

(bleep) you! (laughs)

- Why do you do this to me all the time?

- I understand you, but I hate you.

- My hope is that we will be free of each other

as soon as possible.

- I'm so angry.

I can't do anything.

I can't believe I'm getting emotional.

It sucks.

I mean I'm always hopeful.

I'm sticking it out in New York, and doing what

I love to do, and I'll continue to do that.

- I think I've gotten to the point where I realize

that this is kind of my life, and feel a little

bit more resigned, which is just really sad.

But I guess that's just your early twenties, right?

Resignation.

- But I'm never gonna stop trying, I guess.

I can't believe I got emotional.

I'm so sorry.

(laughs)
