S. Phung's D: Achieving Excellence

Achieving Excellence

David S Phung's Guide to Leadership and Innovation

Anyone can be a contrarian. Effective leaders are smart about when--and how--they go against conventional wisdom to succeed.Contrarians are, by and large, ineffective. Their countervailing ideas don't gain support. Their pleas for understanding are dismissed. Their efforts to change minds backfire. But it's not because they're always wrong. It's because they're not smart about going against the grain. People tend to think of contrarianism as some innate trait that you either have or you don't. It's not. It's a way of thinking and a set of skills that can be learned and practiced.This provocative and deeply researched book teaches those skills. Strategy scholars Chengwei Liu and Balázs Kovács reveal how exceptional performance is far less predictable--and far less meritocratic--than most people believe. Drawing on insights from behavioral science, business strategy, finance, sports, entertainment, and entrepreneurship, they show how luck, social dynamics, institutional conformity, and hidden biases shape who succeeds, who fails, and which ideas rise to the top.The authors uncover why consensus thinking so often leads organizations and leaders astray through fascinating stories ranging from PSY's "Gangnam Style" to the rise of Capital One to venture capital bets, celebrity CEOs, financial collapses, and viral cultural phenomena. They introduce a powerful framework for spotting overlooked opportunities, avoiding costly decision traps, and building organizations that learn faster than their competitors do.Leaders and professionals who thrive are not reckless rebels or irrational gamblers but disciplined, smart contrarians who know how to separate signal from hype, skill from luck, and genuine innovation from fashionable noise.Fresh and highly original--and a joy to read--Smart Contrarians is the guide for executives, leaders, entrepreneurs, and all ambitious professionals who want to zig when everyone else zags.

Harriman House Essentials

The Psychology of Leadership

Every morning, Craig Wahl walks his dog Winston through quiet, tree-lined streets, and every morning, Winston stops, sniffs, backtracks, and finds his own way forward. It is not a straight line. Neither is leadership.The Walk: Leadership When There Is No Finish Line delivers the unpolished truth: Leadership is an endless, messy, and grueling walk where clarity runs out and pressure stays high. Drawing on his own experience navigating bankruptcies and IP lawsuits and scaling a team from eight to nearly three hundred employees, Wahl maps the terrain leaders actually walk: trust rebuilt daily, accountability nobody wants to own, and the quiet endurance required to keep showing up.The Walk bypasses academic theory to address what most leadership guides skip: toxicity without villains, high-performer alignment, and the discomfort of leading outside the room. Through practical tools like the "Failure Audit" and the "Toxicity Response Ladder," executives learn to turn reflection into action."Leadership doesn’t break people because they don’t care enough. It breaks them because they care deeply and no one prepared them for the cost of that care."When corporate doors chain shut and proximity no longer guarantees alignment, only one question remains: What will a leader be remembered for? Step onto the pavement and discover how to keep walking.

Leadership When There Is No Finish Line

The Walk

Competitive advantage is found in operations, and in the operations leaders who build resilient, adaptive, and intelligent businesses.The relentless waves of disruption in the turbulent 2020s--from the Covid-19 pandemic to AI breakthroughs and so much more--have made operations the nerve center of business survival. The companies thriving in today's volatile world are those that have transformed operations from a "silent function" into a strategic engine of resilience, innovation, growth, and competitive advantage. In this practical book, you learn how it's done.Professor of Strategy and Supply Chain Management Carlos Cordon joins the former head of operations at Nestlé, Magdi Batato, to show leaders why operations is the CEO's secret weapon and how the COO has emerged as one of the most strategically important roles in modern business.Drawing on interviews, case studies, and real-world lessons from global leaders at companies including Nestlé, Apple, Carlsberg, Danaher, and Novo Nordisk, the authors reveal how modern executives are rethinking the supply chain to be something more flexible and nonlinear; how they're reimagining manufacturing, sustainability, technology, talent, and customer responsiveness in an era when disruption is constant and adaptability is everything.From nearshoring and AI-powered decision-making to sustainable sourcing, consumer-driven operations, and resilient ecosystems, the book provides a practical framework for building operations that can withstand shocks while continuing to innovate and grow. It will guide CEOs, COOs, supply chain leaders, strategists, and anyone responsible for steering organizations through an increasingly unpredictable world.Operational resilience is now inseparable from long-term success. Operations is strategy.

Redefining Competitive Advantage for the Next Era of Business

Operations Is Strategy

This exciting new edition of Strategy and Human Resource Management explores how people strategy shapes organisational survival, performance and competitive advantage. It shows how HR strategy differs across organisations, industries and societies, and why those differences matter, offering a nuanced understanding of HRM in context rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Written by world-renowned authors, it provides a rigorously analytical, research-led approach that first explains what managers actually do and the reasoning behind their decisions before considering implications for practice. Theory is brought to life through real-world examples, cases and vignettes, making complex ideas accessible and relevant. Alongside core principles of strategic HRM, the book examines the critical features of the environments in which they are applied, delivering a richly grounded, practice-orientated analysis for students and practitioners alike. New to this edition: - Fully updated throughout in terms of citing latest research and application. - New coverage of AI and robotization in the context of HRM an implications for organizational strategy. - New coverage of sustainable HRM. - New coverage of HR analytics. - New coverage of post-pandemic/Covid working and implications for employees and employers. - New and updated case studies. - Strengthening of practical tools and application. - Increased use of figures, table and other illustrations.

Strategy and Human Resource Management

Advising CEOs for decades and having served as BCG's CEO for nine years, Rich Lesser spent a career in the rooms where high-stakes business decisions get made. In The Six-in-One CEO, he invites you into those rooms as he defines the six roles a modern CEO must play, and what it takes to play them well.The CEO's job has changed more in this decade than at any point in modern business history. Shocks arrive faster and overlap. AI is permeating every corner of the enterprise. Trust is harder to build and easier to lose. Geopolitics are upending business as usual. Employees are facing a new host of stressors. Today's leaders must navigate all this while delivering growth and building organizations for the long term.To explore these challenges, Lesser, now BCG's Global Chair, had candid conversations with more than two dozen leading CEOs, including Arvind Krishna of IBM, Carol Tomé of UPS, Christophe Fouquet of ASML, Doug McMillon of Walmart, Maria Black of ADP, Nicolas Hieronimus of L'Oréal, and Young Liu of Foxconn.Their stories, BCG's insights, and Lesser's own experience converge on six roles CEOs must now embrace: chief vitality officer, chief learning officer, chief statesman, chief resilience officer, chief trust officer, and chief well-being officer.Avoiding the checklists and playbooks often found in traditional business books, Lesser closes each chapter with personal memos to CEOs offering practical advice on navigating the six roles based on real-world examples. He also offers his take on the critical leadership traits that CEOs often underestimate, along with his holistic view on legacy.Reflective about what leadership has always required and exacting about what this era now demands, The Six-in-One CEO is grounded in real decisions rather than theory, written by a leader who has done the job, and leveraging BCG's vast experience. It's essential reading for CEOs, senior executives, rising leaders, and anyone responsible for guiding organizations in this extraordinary period of change.

An Evidence-Based Guide to Performance Leadership

Armstrong’s Handbook of Performance Management

Business today remains tethered to a paradigm that is long out of date. This mindset assumes that universal answers exist: Businesses can simply apply compartmentalized operations and follow linear paths to success. Experienced managers know business doesn't work this way. Where should they turn? In this groundbreaking book, Doug Garnett shows how complexity science reveals a new understanding of how business works that is as useful on the front lines as in the C-suite. This discipline--the study of behaviors in highly interconnected, adapting systems dominated by emergence--is revolutionizing fields from biology and economics to psychology and artificial intelligence. Recognizing a business as a complex adaptive system operating within other complex systems changes our perspective on everything from core concepts of demand, profit, and strategy to the nature of business success. Managers who grasp the order hidden within complexity discover not only a powerful new understanding of their role but also potential for dramatic contributions to success. The Complexity Paradigm features vivid examples ranging from local coffee shops to major corporations like PepsiCo, Boeing, Mattel, Starbucks, and General Motors as well as tech giants such as Apple and AT&amp;T. Grounding eye-opening theory in the realities of business, this foundational look at complexity offers deep insight and value for practitioners and students alike.

Be Future Ready

Artificial intelligence has crossed the liability Rubicon. It is no longer a backend IT experiment governed by soft ethics, voluntary frameworks, and vague policy statements; it is a material financial asset driving enterprise revenue and unprecedented legal exposure. As we transition into Industry 5.0, algorithms are making autonomous, consequential decisions at machine speed. Yet, corporate boards and risk committees are attempting to govern these gigahertz systems using static compliance checklists designed for a slower, simpler era. The result is a looming crisis of algorithmic discrimination, regulatory friction, and catastrophic reputational decay. When an opaque, black-box model hallucinates financial advice or leaks proprietary trade secrets, the ensuing failure cascade can destroy billions in market capitalization overnight.AI Governance and Risk Management provides the definitive, boardroom-ready blueprint for surviving the fragmented global regulatory dragnet. This book dismantles the illusion of traditional "Human-in-the-Loop" oversight, proving that true algorithmic safety requires hard, architectural constraints. Drawing on decades of technology operations and academic leadership, the text translates classical financial auditing principles into executable machine logic. The author brings unparalleled practical experience-from supporting six Silicon Valley startups in client-facing roles to develop computer vision use cases, to leading over 30 continuous improvement projects for Cisco Systems. Having authored foundational texts on Segregation of Duties (SOD) and Hierarchical SOD two decades ago, and backed by 15 years of teaching financial risk management, this expertise culminates in the AI Integrity Framework (AIIF). This Hamiltonian approach empowers organizations to embed continuous improvement cycles and strict SOD directly into their deployment pipelines.Readers will discover how to engineer automated "Build Breaks," architect deterministic kill switches, and secure the unstructured data supply chain against copyright contamination and intellectual property theft. By shifting from reactive public relations to proactive "Governance as Code," Chief Risk Officers, legal counsel, and audit committees can mathematically prove fiduciary control to regulators across overlapping jurisdictions, from California to the European Union.Authored by a veteran industry practitioner, creator of five previous Wiley &amp; Sons texts, and current developer of the Industry 5.0 and AI curriculum at Santa Clara University, this release is not a theoretical ethics manual. It is an uncompromising operational survival guide. It provides the exact structural tools necessary to transform artificial intelligence from an unquantified off-balance-sheet liability into a fully auditable, legally defensible, and highly profitable enterprise asset.

The AI Integrity Framework (AIIF) for Enterprise Control and Regulatory Compliance

Auditable AI Governance and Risk Management

What nobody tells you about power, money, and winning in business There is a moment most executives recognize but rarely talk about. You're sitting in a meeting where the language is polite, the slide deck is professional, and everyone in the room knows someone is about to get destroyed. The budget. The team. The product. The career. They call it a strategic review. What it actually is? A knife fight with better lighting. Business isn't fair. Meritocracy is largely a fiction. The people who talk like sages are usually improvising behind the scenes, and the gap between the official version of how companies work and what actually happens inside them is exactly where careers are built-or quietly ended. The Trick Is Not Minding That It Hurts is the book that lives in that gap. It is a blunt, unsentimental field guide to how the system actually works and how to survive it without losing your sanity. After two decades inside the world's most competitive environments-including senior leadership roles at Facebook, Alibaba, and Expedia, followed by years in the private equity trenches-Lee McCabe has seen how power is built, how decisions are really made, and why the "official story" is often the most dangerous one to believe. If you are ready to stop being naive and start navigating the real world of business, this is your guide.

What Nobody Tells You About Power, Money, and Winning in Business

The Trick Is Not Minding That It Hurts

Is your company moving as fast as you think it is? Most organizations aren't--and it's costing them.Many executives would argue that their companies are moving with speed. But new research reveals the opposite. As speed becomes more critical to survival in today's unpredictable world, most companies are actually getting slower, held back by processes, technologies, and structures that once made them successful.This perception-execution gap around speed can make or break companies--yet most leaders don't know how to set their organizations up for success. In The High-Velocity Organization, Suketu Gandhi, chair of the global strategic operations practice at Kearney, offers a practical solution. By combining speed of insights, decisions, and actions, leaders can increase their velocity exponentially across the organization. Gandhi introduces a five-part framework for operationalizing intelligent speed at scale: <ul><li>Build enterprise sensing capabilities that enable a company to perceive opportunities and threats.</li><li>Break down silos to enable organizational adaptability.</li><li>Empower agile teams by encouraging decision-making and fostering collaboration.</li><li>Scale with intelligent automation to distribute insights, increase efficiency, expand capacity, and support decentralized execution at scale.</li><li>Measure what matters using new metrics that determine true competitive speed in an accelerated marketplace.</li></ul>Based on proprietary research and filled with detailed examples, The High-Velocity Organization explores the architecture, technology, and leadership needed to put speed at the heart of strategy and execution so that your company can stay adaptable while moving forward--fast.
