Businesses need to be smart to succeed, but it's not enough to make yourself smarter as the leader or to fill the company with smart people. Businesses full of smart people (and led by them) make stupid decisions all the time. Instead, in today's rapidly changing, uncertain world you need to design your business itself to be intelligent, to harness the collective abilities of its people by systematically addressing critical thinking, communication and focus. The real lesson from Amazon, Google and the like - that enables them to keep winning year after year - is that they do business intelligently. Business is complex, which is why it requires a deep, practical intelligence to survive, let alone thrive. This book shows why businesses that act smartest, and display an organizational capacity for critical thinking, underpinned with clear and effective communication, allowing them to develop razor-sharp focus, are the ones that really stand out and achieve sustained success.

To know who you are is the perennial question of leadership. A leader will never understand the world and their role within it, until they understand where they are looking from. Such a leader will inevitably not lead but be led. This important book explores the paradox of self-reference that lies at the heart of leadership - ie, the story of ego. It examines the assumptions that have shaped the conventional view of leadership and offers a radical new paradigm and way to lead. The author explores the important role that ego plays within individual leaders. It looks at how ego has emerged as a new "meta ego" - the coordinated, collective expression of ego that is polarizing our world today. And through a new leadership manifesto (a set of 8 conscious imperatives that offer a new vision for transcending the ego), the author provides a pathway for leaders to rethink today's conventions and what great leadership really means.

Lowell Sheppard had a life-long dream: to buy a sailboat, live on it, learn how to sail, and then cross the Pacific Ocean...solo and by the time he was 70. When he finally announced that he was going to do just that, he was at the ripe age of 64...because he "dared to dream". Based on Lowell's own experience, this book provides important insights on to how to redesign your life, awaken dormant dreams, create audacious goals, and take high-stake risks to achieve them. It examines the anatomy of a dream and shares a four-step (DARE) program to realize high-stake dreams. Lowell has learned from both success and failure, but most of all, he has learned the benefits of pure grit and tenacity. This book will not only inspire the reader to have the courage to reach for the sky but also equip them with the tools to navigate into a better future.

A practical, modern book for managers and leaders who need to know how to get the best from their teams in a 21st century business world. The world of work and the needs of people in the workplace have changed to the extent that the old models no longer work. Today's manager cannot rely on 'command-and-control' and a culture of compliance to get their job done. What is the answer? Much of what Millennials are asking for - development and growth; transparency and connection; work that has meaning and purpose; empowerment - a change in leadership style, that is fitting to today's business environment; that seeks to align rather than control, to enable rather than constrain, to coach rather than command. Leading business coach Myles Downey applies the concept of coaching to modern- day management, showing managers how to motivate and enable teams and team members to achieve their goals.
