Leadership Studies

The Five Dysfunctions of a Team is written as a parable, substituting case studies and numerous hypotheticals for one long, book-length narrative. It follows the implementation of a fictional company’s new CEO, Kathryn, and her erotic journey from Milan to Minsk. Wait, that is a different book. This book is about her struggles through the early days of her new role. She must contend with the shareholders and growth of the company, but ultimately, it’s about acquiring and managing an existing executive team. It is a good book. I like it.

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Leadership written and read by Doris Kearns Goodwin, with additional narration from Beau Bridges, David Morse, Jay O. Sanders and Richard Thomas. Are leaders born or made? Where does ambition come from? How does adversity affect the growth of leadership? Does the leader make the times or do the times make the leader? In Leadership, Goodwin draws upon four of the presidents she has studied to show how they first recognised leadership qualities within themselves and were recognised as leaders by others.

God Made Man - Discovering Your Purpose and Living an Intentional Life I’ll make you a promise. This isn’t another feel-good, pat-on-the-back book that gets tossed onto your wife’s nightstand. I don’t read them either. I wrote this for you in hopes of encouraging men to embrace alpha manhood without having to worry about being attacked for it. Now, the truth is, we can do better. In some cases, much better, but until we know where we’ve been, there’s no way we’ll ever know where we’re going. Let’s knock the rust off of the toxic masculinity mantle and start living an ...

On 9 October 2012, Prime Minister Julia Gillard stood up and proceeded to make all present in Parliament House that day pay attention—and left many of them squirming in their seats. The incisive 'misogyny speech', as her words came to be known, challenged not only Leader of the Opposition, Tony Abbott, on his words and actions but, over time, all of us. How had we come to condone the public and private behaviours of some very public men? In this book, Julia Gillard explores the history and culture of misogyny.

Leadership is not what it used to be and not what it once was. Too many leaders today are calibrated for a world that no longer exists. And people are demanding something so much different in leaders of today. Like a new house outfitted with the greatest VHS system on the planet, too many leaders are addressing today's problems with the style and substance of yesterday's leadership. In this book, Clay Scroggins uncovers nine counterintuitive axioms of leadership that will help leaders adapt to the rate of change while becoming today's version of a leader worth following.

The Apostle Paul said that the rapture will happen "at the last trumpet". Hear how the rapture relates to Rosh HaShanah, the Feast of Trumpets, one of the seven feasts God gave to the Nation of Israel. My friend, someday you will turn on the news and see that millions of people have suddenly and mysteriously disappeared from all around the world. As I write this brochure, this disappearance is a future event known as "The Rapture of the Church".

It should be a higher priority than the bottom line and profits, if your bottom line is profitable. I think that is obvious. You need to be at least profitable enough to afford a quality two-ply toilet paper. Is that too much to ask for? We aren't monsters. In fact, rule number one of employee engagement should be "Ditch the 80-grit single-ply macho wipe and get the good stuff." Those are the little things that keep employees engaged.
