'People want to feel like they're being heard and you have to empower your team.' At the ForbesIconoclast Summit, Sonia Gardner, President of Avenue Capital Group, talked to MoiraForbes about how to manage an effective team.

Conway spoke on a panel with Jonathan Grabel, the chief investment officer for the Los Angeles County pension fund, who said the fund doesn’t have a divestment mandate from oil companies and has some fossil fuel firms in its public portfolio. But he’s also invested in mineral companies and agricultural technology that are facilitating the energy transition.
“The entering class in a lot of big investment banks is 50/50, but the problem is fostering an atmosphere and a climate where women excel and get promoted,” Gardner said. “Although there’s been some improvement, there’s still a long way to go.”Greg Lippman, the founder and CIO of structured products investment firm LibreMax, played a prominent role as a money-maker in Michael Lewis’ book “The Big Short,” and he has good news for U.S. consumers—it’s not as bad as it was in 2007.
“We’ve seen a significant increase in appetite, both from institutions and retail investors,” Arougheti said. “Viewed through the lens of a need for yield and return, alternatives is a huge part of how people get those outcomes.” Skjervem agreed, indicating that China’s 31% weight in the MSCI emerging markets index combined with Taiwan’s 14% weight is too high for him. His $50 billion Utah pension fund is bullish on oil and gas companies while also beginning to allocate more assets to invest in the energy transition.
“One of the things Sean has that’s very unique beyond being a creative and being a big personality is the ability to spot inflection points in culture,” Brooks said. “When you look at our portfolio, they all started with the recognition that a change was happening.”Bitcoin has flatlined for since the summer after a 70% decline from its peak last year, and 30-year-old crypto billionaire is cautiously optimistic that the tide will turn, speaking remotely at the summit.
Ashvin Chhabra and Steve McDonald, who manage the family offices of Jim Simons and Steve Jobs, respectively, and Italian-born entrepreneur Sandro Salsano discussed how they’re managing their portfolios during an uncertain year. “I pick projects large and small for the sole purpose of changing the way the organization thinks, and it’s to empower the dissenters,” Rowan said. “We always want to be a center of contrarian thought.”
Chanos also singled out IBM, trading at an abnormally high P/E multiple, and Block as stocks to look out for, cautioning that “monstrous” share-based compensation is excluded from some of Block’s profit numbers. “People get too negative in terms of growth stocks. The idea that growth’s dead, tech’s dead, innovation is dead–I think that narrative is completely false,” Levy said. “If you look at where innovation is going to be for the next 10 to 20 years, I think you want to be long innovation and long tech.”
“The UK is perhaps a harbinger of things to come,” she said. “The challenge of creating economic growth is facing ever greater headwinds.”
