1/ When Steve Ballmer joined Microsoft in 1980, he was employee #30 and received ZERO equity.

By its IPO in 1986, he owned 8% of the Microsoft, which makes up the majority of his $80B fortune today.

How did Ballmer get that stake, though? A contract quirk.

Here's the story🧵
2/ Ballmer's Microsoft tale begins in 1975, his sophomore year at Harvard.

He lived down the hall from some dude named Bill Gates.

While Gates dropped out to start Microsoft, Ballmer was a total Harvard head -- playing on the Football team and writing for The Crimson. Image
3/ After graduating, Ballmer tried his hands at a few things:

• Product Manager at P&G, where he worked with future GE CEO Jeff Immelt
• A brief attempt at Hollywood screenwriting
• Stanford Business School

While at Stanford, Ballmer was convinced by Gates to drop out...

1/ Bernard Arnault is the world’s 3rd richest person. Worth $158B, he built the luxury LVMH empire over 30+ years.

Arnault's vision and business tactics (he's been called "The Sun Zu of Luxury") are equal parts legendary and controversial.

Here's his story 🧵
2/ Today, the LVMH empire bring in $55B+ a year, employs 160k people and houses 75 brands:

• Fashion (LV, Celine, Fendi)
• Wine & Spirits (Krug, Hennesy, Belvedere, Moet)
• Perfumes (Dior, Guerian)
• Watches & Jewelry (Tiffany's, Hublot, Tag Heuer)
• Retail (Sephora)
3/ Arnault’s story begins in 1949, born in Roubaix, France (2hrs from Paris)

His family owned a civil engineering company. After graduating from École Polytechnique (France’s top engineering school), he began work for the family firm.

By 25, he was in charge.

1/ There's a communications technique called "Public Narrative". Created by a Harvard prof, it has influenced leading politicians (Obama) and business people (Bezos).

Once you learn it, you see it everywhere...like in Vlad Tenev's GameStop speech.

Let me explain 🧵
2/ "Public Narrative" was created by Marshall Ganz, a Harvard PhD, community organizer & Harvard lecturer.

It's a way structure speech so to persuade and turn values into action. It's been used by lawyers, politicians, activists, PR, teachers and business folk of all stripes.
3/ "Public Narrative" is composed of 3 parts:

• Story of self (a personal story, which invites listeners to connect w/ the teller)
• Story of us (a collective "we" story to show shared purpose)
• Story of now (an urgent story to create action)

Again: Turn values --> action

How Citi’s UX costed it $900m:
1️⃣ On a debt instrument, the bank was supposed to pay out interest only
2️⃣ To prevent the payment of principal, you have to (confusingly) check 3 boxes: “Front”, “Fund”, “Principal”
3️⃣ The employee clicked “Principal” but not the other ones...😬 Image
On a related note, Citi has 193 job openings for "UI" right now Image
Incredible coverage from @matt_levine obviously
