SHANE
SNOW
EXPLORER, AUTHOR OF DREAM TEAMS
CO-FOUNDER OF CONTENTLY
FOUNDER OF SNOW ACADEMY

@SHANESNOW
FRESH OFF HIS
LATEST MASSACRE

BUT LET’S BACK UP…
6
@SHANESNOW

@SHANESNOW
SO SHIPS STARTED
APPEARING…

@SHANESNOW
“BAN ALL IMPORTS AND
EXPORTS, PLEASE!”

@SHANESNOW
THIS IMMEDIATELY
DESTROYED THE ECONOMY

@SHANESNOW
AND SACKED CITIES FROM
MARYLAND TO VIRGINIA

@SHANESNOW
AMERICA’S GOODS ROTTED
ON THEIR WHARFS

@SHANESNOW
THE BRITISH WERE FINE.

@SHANESNOW
EVERYONE IN AMERICA
FLIPPED OUT AT EACH
OTHER

@SHANESNOW
DEMOCRATIC-
REPUBLICANS TORCHED
FEDERALIST NEWSPAPERS

@SHANESNOW
FEDERALISTS WERE LIKE,
“FINE LET’S JOIN THE
BRITISH.”

@SHANESNOW
“LET’S TAKE AMERICA
BACK!!!”

@SHANESNOW
“PUSH THE AMERICANS
INTO THE ATLANTIC.”

@SHANESNOW
THE ONLY THING STANDING
IN THE WAY…

@SHANESNOW
THANKS TO SOME LOCAL
HEROES…

@SHANESNOW
THE PIRATE BROTHERS
LAFFITE

@SHANESNOW
DOMINIQUE YOU LAFFITE

@SHANESNOW
LETTERS OF MARQUE OF
CARTAGENA

@SHANESNOW
CONVENIENTLY, AT WAR
WITH EVERYONE

@SHANESNOW
THE BRITISH ARMY
ASSEMBLED THE
LARGEST ARMADA
EVER TO SAIL

@SHANESNOW
A SNEAK ATTACK WOULD
BE NICE, HE DECIDED

@SHANESNOW
SO HE PAID JEAN LAFFITE A
SECRET VISIT

@SHANESNOW
AND OFFERED HIM $2
MILLION

@SHANESNOW
NICHOLS WENT BACK TO
THE ARMADA, PLEASED

@SHANESNOW
JEAN IMMEDIATELY
DOUBLE CROSSED HIM

@SHANESNOW
THIS WAS INTERESTING
TIMING, BECAUSE THE
STATE GOVERNMENT HAD
JUST DECLARED WAR ON
HIM

54
THOUSAND
—————-
FOR GOV. CLAIBORNE

@SHANESNOW
SO CLAIBORNE, TO THE
DISMAY OF NEW ORLEANS,
SEND A CREW TO RAID
LAFFITE’S PIRATE ISLAND

@SHANESNOW
AT THE SAME TIME JEAN
WAS DOUBLE CROSSING
THE BRITISH, HIS MEN WERE
HIDING ALL THEIR SHIT IN
THE SWAMP

@SHANESNOW
AND THAT’S WHEN THE
PIRATES DISAPPEARED

@SHANESNOW
PRESIDENT
MADISON FREAKED
OUT

@SHANESNOW
THE ONLY PERSON HE
COULD CALL…

@SHANESNOW
ALSO A COMPLICATED
FELLOW

@SHANESNOW
HE HAD RECENTLY
ATTEMPTED TO KILL THE
GOVERNOR

@SHANESNOW
AND MASSACRED A BUNCH
OF NATIVES

@SHANESNOW
AND ADOPTED AN
AMERICAN INDIAN BABY

@SHANESNOW
HE’D BEEN SHOT AFTER
TRYING TO HORSEWHIP
SOME DUDE WHO’D
GOTTEN MAD WHEN
JACKSON’S FRIEND SHOT
THE DUDE’S FRIEND IN THE
BUTT

@SHANESNOW
LET’S GO OVER THAT
AGAIN TO MAKE SURE THE
SEQUENCE IS CLEAR:

@SHANESNOW
A) SOME GUY MOONED
JACKSON’S BUDDY

@SHANESNOW
B) SO JACKSON’S BUDDY
SHOT HIM IN THE EXPOSED
REAR

@SHANESNOW
C) THE BUTT-SHOT GUY’S
FRIEND GOT MAD

@SHANESNOW
D) SO JACKSON HORSE-
WHIPPED THE MAD FRIEND

@SHANESNOW
E) AND THAT GUY SHOT
JACKSON IN THE ARM

@SHANESNOW
THE SITUATION WAS NOT
GOOD

@SHANESNOW
200 LOCAL BUSINESSMEN

@SHANESNOW
AND A CONTINGENT OF
FEISTY LOCAL WHORES
WHO’D SIGNED UP FOR
AMMO DUTY

@SHANESNOW
1,800 TENNESSEE HUNTERS

@SHANESNOW
THERE WAS ALSO A MILITIA
PLATOON OF FREEMEN OF
COLOR WHO HADN’T BEEN
PAID IN A WHILE

@SHANESNOW
AND A CREW OF CHOCTAW
BRAVES WHO FOR SOME
REASON WERE WILLING TO
HELP

@SHANESNOW
JACKSON PROMISED TO
PAY THEM

@SHANESNOW
AND GAVE A ROUSING
SPEECH

87
AND THEN WENT BACK TO
HIS ROOM AND SHIT
HIMSELF

@SHANESNOW
THE BRITISH HAD 20,000
TRAINED TROOPS AND
THAT ENORMOUS ARMADA

@SHANESNOW
AGAINST HIS 3,000 MISFITS

HE GOT A VISIT FROM A
LAWYER NAMED EDWARD
LIVINGSTON

@SHANESNOW
THERE WAS ONE OTHER
GROUP OF POTENTIAL
FIGHTERS HE COULD
RECRUIT, SAUL GOODMAN
SAID

@SHANESNOW
JEAN LAFFITE AND HIS
MERRY BAND OF
PRIVATEERS

@SHANESNOW
“THEY HAVE A BUNCH OF
CANNONS.”

@SHANESNOW
“Actually,
yes.”

@SHANESNOW
JEAN LAFFITE BECAME CO-
STRATEGIST OF THE
DEFENSE FORCE

@SHANESNOW
“I hate
Creoles.”

@SHANESNOW
“I hate
Pirates.”

@SHANESNOW
“I hate
Indians.”

@SHANESNOW
“Totally
down with
slavery,
you guys.”

@SHANESNOW
BUT THIS WAS MORE
IMPORTANT THAN HIS
PERSONAL SHIT“But I guess
this is more
important…
for now”

@SHANESNOW
AND THUS WAS BORN THE
MOST DIVERSE ARMY EVER
ASSEMBLED IN THE
HISTORY OF THE US

@SHANESNOW
LET’S STEP BACK
FOR A SECOND AND
TALK ABOUT TEAMS

@SHANESNOW
TWO HEADS ARE
USUALLY NOT BETTER
THAN ONE

118
“White Guy Leads
Brainstorm Session.”

122
“Business people must be
insane to use
brainstorming exercises.”
-Adrian Furman, UC London

@SHANESNOW
THE VERY SAME THING:
OUR DIFFERENCES

@SHANESNOW
AND YET SOME TEAMS…

@SHANESNOW
WHEN HUMANS COME
TOGETHER, WE
BREAK DOWN
OR
BREAK THROUGH

@SHANESNOW
TO UNDERSTAND, FIRST WE
NEED TO UNDERSTAND THE
MATH OF “SYNERGY”

What if you
tried my
way from
Their spot?

@SHANESNOW
COGNITIVE DIVERSITY

@SHANESNOW
TWO HEADS ARE ONLY
BETTER THAN ONE…
IF THOSE HEADS SEE
THINGS DIFFERENTLY

La la la we’re
not listening
Hey do you
see this?!

@SHANESNOW
FOR ANY OF THIS TO
WORK, DIFFERENT WAYS
OF THINKING NEED TO
ACTUALLY BUMP AGAINST
EACH OTHER

@SHANESNOW
INNOVATION IS BORN OF
THE FRICTION BETWEEN
DIFFERENT WAYS OF
THINKING

@SHANESNOW
BUT AT A CERTAIN POINT…

@SHANESNOW
COMBINING PERSPECTIVES
AND HEURISTICS

@SHANESNOW
WHICH ARE SHAPED BY
OUR LIFE EXPERIENCES,
INCLUDING WHO WE
ARE AND HOW WE ARE
TREATED BY THE
WORLD

@SHANESNOW
THE MISSING
INGREDIENT FOR
ANY OF THIS TO
WORK

INTELLECTUAL
HUMILITY
19
2
@SHANESNOW

@SHANESNOW
INTELLECTUAL HUMILITY:
BEING ABLE TO
TRANSCEND ONE’S OWN
WAY OF THINKING

@SHANESNOW
WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO
CHANGE
shanesnow.com/ih

@SHANESNOW
IN A NUTSHELL, THIS
EXPLAINS WHY SO
MUCH OF CORPORATE
AMERICA SUCKS

@SHANESNOW
AND WHY WE HAVE SO
MANY PROBLEMS IN THE
WORLD

@SHANESNOW
AND IT’S THE STARTING
POINT FOR FIGURING
OUT HOW WE CAN MAKE
ALL OF OUR TEAMS AND
COMMUNITIES AND
SOCIETIES BETTER

@SHANESNOW
SPEAKING OF
IMPRESSIVE TEAMS

@SHANESNOW
THE BRITISH ARMY WAS
DOPE

@SHANESNOW
THEY FIGURED OUT PRETTY
QUICKLY THAT JEAN
LAFFITE WASN’T GOING TO
SHOW UP TO GUIDE THEM
THROUGH THE SWAMP

@SHANESNOW
BUT THEY HAD 7 TO 1 ODDS,
AND DOPE WAR TRAINING,
IN THEIR FAVOR

@SHANESNOW
MEANWHILE… ANYONE
WHO WENT INTO THE
WOODS TO PEE RAN INTO
THIS GUY:

@SHANESNOW
AND THE DIRTY SHIRTS
ASSASSINATED EVERYONE
WHO STOOD WATCH

@SHANESNOW
THE BRITISH THOUGHT THIS
TERRIBLY UNCHIVALROUS

@SHANESNOW
“THIS IS NOT HOW NOBLE
WARS ARE FOUGHT!!!”

@SHANESNOW
COLONEL NICHOLS SENT
AN ENVOY TO CORDIALLY
REQUEST THAT JACKSON
MEET HIS ARMY SO THEY
COULD FIGHT LIKE MEN OF
HONOR.

@SHANESNOW
JACKSON CORDIALLY
REQUESTED THE INVADING
COLONEL TO FUCK
HIMSELF.

@SHANESNOW
LAFFITE AND THE FREEMEN
OF COLOR HAD BUILT A
MOAT AND A DIRT
RAMPART IN BETWEEN THE
SWAMP AND THE CITY

@SHANESNOW
THE DIRTY SHIRTS WAITED
IN TREES WITH THEIR
HUNTING RIFLES

@SHANESNOW
JACKSON ISSUED
EVERYONE WHISKY

@SHANESNOW
JACKSON ISSUED
EVERYONE WHISKY
(SUPPLIED BY YOU KNOW
WHO)

@SHANESNOW
AND IN THE MORNING, THE
BRITISH CHARGED

@SHANESNOW
THE DEFENDERS OPENED
FIRE

@SHANESNOW
TURNS OUT THAT HUNTING
RIFLES, WHILE SLOW, CAN
SHOOT WAY FURTHER
THAN BRITISH MUSKETS

@SHANESNOW
THE DIRTY SHIRTS
ASSASSINATED THE
BRIGHTLY COLORED
BRITISH LEADERS

@SHANESNOW
WHICH EVERYONE KNEW
YOU WEREN’T SUPPOSED
TO DO

@SHANESNOW
AFTER THE SMOKE
CLEARED FROM THE FIRST
ASSAULT, THE BRITISH HAD
LOST 3,500 MEN

@SHANESNOW
WHILE THE AMERICANS
LOST 333

@SHANESNOW
THIS WAS GOING TO BE
WAY TOO HARD

@SHANESNOW
SO THE BRITISH WENT
HOME

@SHANESNOW
JACKSON BECAME A
NATIONAL HERO, EVEN
THOUGH HE WAS AWFUL
PERSON

HE BECAME PRESIDENT,
BECAUSE VOTERS DIDN’T
HAVE INTERNET THEN TO
HELP THEM REALIZE THAT
HE WAS A RACIST
BACKSTABBER

@SHANESNOW
EDWARD LIVINGSTON
BECAME HIS SECRETARY OF
STATE

@SHANESNOW
AND JEAN LAFFITE, NOW
PARDONED, WENT FROM
STEALING BOATS…

@SHANESNOW
THE HEARTS OF NEW
ORLEAN’S BEAUTIFUL
MARRIED LADIES

@SHANESNOW
THE LESSON WE
LEARN FROM THIS IS
NOT ABOUT
JACKSON’S
LEADERSHIP

@SHANESNOW
OR THE BRITISH
COLONEL’S HUBRIS

@SHANESNOW
IT’S THAT IN ORDER TO
BEAT THE ODDS

@SHANESNOW
A TEAM OF PEOPLE WHO
ARE ALL GOOD AT THEIR
JOBS, AND UNIFIED, AND
SIMILAR

@SHANESNOW
IS NOT NEARLY AS
EFFECTIVE

@SHANESNOW
AS A TEAM WITH
DIFFERENT WAYS OF
THINKING AND WORKING

@SHANESNOW
SOME THINGS ARE MORE
IMPORTANT THAN OUR
DIFFERENCES

@SHANESNOW
IN FACT… MAYBE THE
IMPORTANT THING IS OUR
DIFFERENCES

THANK YOU!
