Cuddy A: Bullies, Bystanders, And
Bravehearts

Bullies, Bystanders, And Bravehearts

New from the bestselling author and host of CBC Radio’s Under the Influence In Terry’s bestselling book, My Best Mistake, he uncovers the surprising power of screwing up. Now, he turns his incredible eye to the mavericks who go “against the grain” in their work to see what makes them tick and to explore what lessons we can learn from them. People who chose to ignore conventional wisdom, found or invented a better way, questioned the status quo at great sacrifice and pushed for change against all odds. Some were drummed out of their careers for it but in the end were proven right (Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis). Some were celebrated but had to fight every inch of the way (Norman Lear). Some re-invented their industry but preferred to stay an outsider (Tom Laughlin—aka Billy Jack). Some confounded their competitors with ingenious strategies (NHL coach Roger Neilson). One even saved millions of people around the world, but was humiliated, demoted, and dismissed for her entire career (Dr.&nbsp;Katalin Karikó—co-creator of the COVID vaccine). All persistent visionaries, each covered in battle scars.

Defiant Giants Who Changed the World

Against the Grain

From Jason Redman, the former Navy SEAL and New York Times bestselling author of The Trident, writing with his wife, Erica, a battle-tested guide to marital bliss, drawing on the lessons of elite warriors to build a winning relationship, no matter the challenges and traumas that life sends your way. The divorce rate among Navy SEALs is over 90 percent, and the rate among severely wounded warriors is even higher. Erica and Jason Redman knew their marriage faced an uphill climb, because Jason is both. In 2007, Jason's patrol was ambushed by a machine gunners' nest in Iraq. Thirty-seven surgeries, 1,200 stitches, and a grueling years-long rehab would follow. Despite all that-plus the daily demands of raising three children and running a successful business together-Jason and Erica's marriage has remained invincible. Every day, you make choices that either build up your relationship or leave it exposed and vulnerable to attack. The highest-performing warrior teams pay attention to developing muscle-memory habits, and your marriage can benefit from the same focus. In Mission: Invincible Marriage, Jason and Erica share the tools they use to lay the foundational beliefs and communication skills a marriage needs to last for life. Each chapter helps readers develop a key tenet of successful relationship-building. Among them: Commit to Friendship: The foundation of all successful marriages is genuine friendship Support Each Other's Dreams: Couples who establish a pattern of supporting each other's dreams can thrive even when those dreams grow and change Know When to Give Space: Learn to trust each other enough to give and take space when needed instead of resorting to passive-aggressive responses and stonewalling Establish Rituals: Couples can strengthen their marriage by finding ways to invest in small shared actions that reflect and reinforce commitment Face Conflict Together: Marital strength is not the absence of conflict but the ability to withstand and work through conflict Drawing on their own experiences and the latest research in long-term interpersonal relationships, Mission: Invincible Marriage is a battle-tested guide to nurturing love, especially when the going gets tough-- Provided by publisher.

Invincible Marriage - A Battle-Tested Guide to an Enduring Relationship

Mission

Go behind the scenes of the aviation industry as Oscar Munoz tells soulful lessons about how he rose from humble immigrant origins to lead United Airlines through one of modern business' greatest turnarounds, navigating crises and even a heart transplant along the way, but ultimately inspiring his employees to unite and fly as one.United Airlines, the iconic brand that invented the ?Friendly Skies? and built modern aviation, found itself amid rough turbulence and was anything but united in 2015. With its reputation in freefall, operations and profits cratering, customer and employee trust fraying?and competitors pushing into coveted routes?United needed a new captain to turn things around, fast.A Mexican immigrant and the first Latino to run a major airline, Oscar Munoz was an unlikely choice to take the helm, and he proved himself a very kind of different CEO. Embarking on a global listening tour, talking with thousands of employees and customers, he sold United's board on an unconventional Wall Street-defying strategy: Put Employees First. He believed the people of United, who had kept faith through it all, needed someone to believe in, and who'd believe in them.While trying to bring United back to life, a private drama was unfolding when 37 days into the job, Munoz suffered a heart attack, launching an against-the-clock race for a heart transplant, all while he led United?even from a hospital bed?through its crucible moment.Five years later, United emerged as a true aviation success story, leading the industry with sky-high metrics, while earning a genuine trust from employees and labor, built on what Munoz called ?The New Spirit of United.? In this deeply personal memoir, go behind the scenes of commercial aviation as Oscar tells how his employees pulled off one of the greatest comeback feats of all-time, and offers soulful leadership lessons much needed in today's world: listening with heart and empathy; defending employees, especially through PR crises, including Covid; building durable cultures that are profitable because they're principled; and charting a genuinely inclusive economy for the future.

Wall Street Journal BestsellerGo behind the scenes with the CEO who led United Airlines’ remarkable turnaround. Around the world and around the clock, the people of United Airlines are locked in a struggle against time to ensure your aircraft lands and takes off for another flight safely and efficiently. This “turnaround time” is the heartbeat of an industry in which the margin for error is nil and success is measured by fractions of a second.Turning around an aircraft and turning around an airline are very different challenges in most respects, except one: it takes a united team to perform it well.In 2015, when Oscar Munoz took the helm of this iconic brand, its culture was anything but united and its reputation was in free fall. A merger with its onetime rival Continental had stalled, operational and financial performance was badly trailing those of its competitors, and the bonds of trust with shareholders, customers, and employees had reached a breaking point.Setting out an ambitious plan to rejuvenate the company, Oscar learned that there was nothing wrong at United that couldn’t be fixed by championing what was right—the employees themselves.Meanwhile, only a month into the job, Oscar suffered a near-fatal heart attack that set in motion a race against the clock to find a heart transplant to save his life, even as he fought to salvage his vision for United’s revival. The health emergency might have been the end of the story—until employees and union leaders rallied around Oscar, inspiring him to pull through, something he did within weeks following a successful procedure.Oscar and the people he led, both with new leases on life, would go on to weather more turbulence, overcoming battles with investors and navigating several PR crises—including a global pandemic—to deliver top-tier operational performance, strong returns to shareholders, and ascending levels of customer satisfaction. By the end of his tenure, the people of United were finally flying together as one team, defying pessimism from industry insiders and rekindling optimism from employees and the customers they served.With candor, humor, and heartfelt wisdom, Oscar reveals how he rose from humble immigrant origins to lead United Airlines through one of modern business’s greatest corporate turnarounds. He offers soulful, much-needed leadership lessons for today’s world: listening with empathy, standing up for employees, building durable cultures that are profitable because they’re principled, and advancing a vision for a genuinely inclusive economy for the future.

"What if you could choose your future? When we're kids, the future is exciting to imagine. Then we grow up and soon the events and circumstances of our lives overwhelm us and before we know it, we're afraid of tomorrow, waiting to see what the future drops on us instead of chasing after the future we want to have.

You can respond to unexpected challenges--big and small--by turning them into opportunities with a 'future-ready mindstate': using optimism, openness, curiosity, experimentation, empathy, and what Dr. Pferdt calls our Dimension X--the unique lens through which each of us sees the world not as it is, but as we are"--

"A comprehensive and thought-provoking investigation into one of the most polarizing words in the English language"--

A comprehensive and thought-provoking investigation into one of the most polarizing words in the English language.Few words in the English language are as misunderstood as “like.” Indeed, excessive use of this word is a surefire way to make those who pride themselves on propriety, both grammatical and otherwise, feel compelled to issue correctives.But what the detractors of this word fail to understand is its true function and versatility—as an exclamation, a filler of space, a means of subtle emphasis, and more. “Like” may have started out as slang, but it is now an intrinsic component of fun, serious, and altogether nurturing communication. And like any colloquialism, the word endears the speaker to its audience; a conversation full of likes feels more casual, despite its content.In this book, culture writer and editor for Dwell magazine Megan C. Reynolds takes us through the unique etymology and usage of this oft-reviled word, highlighting how it is often used to undermine people who are traditionally seen as having less status in society—women, younger people, people from specific subcultures—and how, if thought about differently, it might open up a new way of communication and validation. Written in a breezy yet informative and engaging style, this is a must-read for anyone who considers themselves a grammarian, a lover of language, and an advocate for the marginalized in discussions of cultural capital, power, and progress.

A momentous look at the private companies driving a revolutionary new economy in space, from the New York Times bestselling author of Elon MuskWith the launch of the Falcon 1 rocket in 2008, Elon Musk's SpaceX became the first private company to build a low-cost rocket that could reach orbit. And that milestone carried major implications: Silicon Valley, not NASA or nation states, was suddenly cemented as the epicenter of the new Space Age. Start-ups and the wealthy investors behind them began to realize that the universe?ungoverned and infinite?was open for business. Welcome to the Wild West of aerospace engineering.When the Heavens Went on Sale tells the remarkable, unfolding story of this frenzied intergalactic land grab. Through his trademark immersive reporting, Ashlee Vance follows four pioneering companies?Astra, Firefly, Planet Labs, and Rocket Lab?as they build new space systems and attempt to launch rockets and satellites into orbit by the thousands. While the public fixated on the space tourism being driven by Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Richard Branson, these new companies arrived with a different set of goals: to make rocket and satellite launches fast and cheap, thereby opening Earth's lower orbit for business?and setting it up as the next playing field for humankind's technological evolution, where we can connect, analyze, and monitor everything on Earth.Vance has had a front-row seat and singular access to this peculiar and unprecedented moment in history. When the Heavens Went on Sale travels through private company headquarters, labs, and top-secret launch locations around the world, including California, Texas, Alaska, New Zealand, Ukraine, India, and French Guiana. He chronicles it all in full color: the private jets, communes, gun-toting bodyguards, drugs, espionage investigations, and multimillionaires guzzling booze to dull the pain as their fortunes disappear.With the most detailed and intimate reporting of Vance's career, When the Heavens Went on Sale reveals the spectacular chaos of the new business of space, and what happens when the idealistic, ambitious minds of Silicon Valley turn their unbridled vision toward the limitless expanse of the stars. This is the most pressing and controversial technology story of our time, a tale of fascinating characters chasing unimaginable stakes as they race to space.

"An admiring portrait of the pioneering entrepreneur Elon Musk, with several lessons on leadership"--

An admiring portrait of the pioneering entrepreneur from the former CNBC host and Forbes editor. One of the most influential figures of our time, Elon Musk is the most talked about man in America who isn’t running for president (yet!). In The Leadership Genius of Elon Musk, veteran business journalist Dennis Kneale chronicles Musk’s extraordinary journey, presenting him as a beacon of inspiration. Musk’s unparalleled success as an innovator and entrepreneur is not just a testament to his genius, but a playbook for those daring to dream big.Synonymous with groundbreaking advancements and daring ventures, Elon Musk has not only shaped the future with companies like Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, the Boring Company, and xAI, but has also redefined what it means to be a leader today. Despite facing relentless criticism and controversy, Musk's relentless pursuit of his visions provides invaluable lessons about resilience, innovation, and the power of conviction. Filled with counterintuitive advice like “Tease your critics and torture your enemies” and “work impossible hours and make them keep up,” this illuminating biography reveals how the richest man in the world got that way.Kneale delves into the essence of Musk’s philosophy, dissecting the principles that have guided his extraordinary journey. From embracing the possibility of the impossible to the strategic handling of critics and media, Musk's approach to life and business offers a unique blueprint for success in today's fast-paced world. His ability to dream big, bet on himself, and turn crises into opportunities serves as a masterclass in achieving greatness against all odds.

The Leadership Genius of Elon Musk

Building on the success of Reboot and the concept of radical self-inquiry, executive coach Jerry Colonna encourages leaders to consider the ways they have been complicit in, and benefitted from, the conditions in the world they say they'd like to change and shows them the path to creating new systems of inclusion for everyone. We all want to belong. For executives and managers, to be better leaders?and people?we must create welcoming environments in which ourselves and others feel recognized and have a place. But to do so, we must first face our own need for belonging and how that need is often thwarted. Colonna argues that only through radical self-inquiry can we come home to ourselves and others and, in doing so, create systemic belonging?homes?for everyone.Many people in power fall into the trap of toxic leadership. But this toxicity can be overcome. Colonna guides us on a journey of reunification with the disowned parts of ourselves, the myths and truths of our ancestors, as well as a deeper connection with those most affected by systems of exclusion. He shows how to apply radical self-inquiry (?How have I been complicit in creating the conditions I say I don't want??) and broaden it to include ?How have I been complicit in maintaining systems of oppression that I say I don't want?? And, more important, ?What do I need to give up that I love in order to have the systems of belonging that I want??The necessary first step is for leaders and others who hold power to see themselves clearly. The vital second step is to see and alter the effects of one's untended, unhealed wounds and beliefs on those we are tasked to lead.Doing so, we are then able to reimagine businesses as collectives where a shared sense of belonging thrives. Doing so will cause a reckoning with the accepted definitions of leadership, success, and value.With its unusual blend of poetry, quotes, and examples from Colonna's own life as well as the lives of his clients?Reunion is a life-altering guide for today's complex and divisive world. It's wise insights and practical advice will help create an inclusive and welcoming workspace, discover the best of who we are, and nurture and support those whom we are privileged to lead.

"Journalist and applied behavioral scientist Elizabeth Weingarten charts a new path to embrace the questions of our lives instead of seeking fast, easy answers, inspired by cutting-edge research and age-old wisdom from the poet Rainer Maria Rilke"--

Journalist and applied behavioral scientist Elizabeth Weingarten charts a new path to embrace the questions of our lives instead of seeking fast, easy answers.What do you do when faced with a big, important question that keeps you up at night?&nbsp;Many people, understandably, seize answers dispensed by “experts,”&nbsp;influencers, gurus, and more. But these fast, easy, one-size-fits-all solutions often fail to satisfy, and can even cause more pain.What if our questions—the ones we ask about relationships, work, meaning, identity, and purpose—are not our tormentors, but our teachers?&nbsp;Inspired by 150-year-old advice from Austrian poet Rainer Maria Rilke and backed by contemporary science, Elizabeth Weingarten offers a fresh approach for dealing with these seemingly unsolvable questions. In her quest, Weingarten shares her own journey and the stories of many others, whose lives have transformed through a different, and better, relationship with uncertainty.Designed to inspire anyone who feels stuck, powerless, and drained,&nbsp;How to Fall in Love with Questions&nbsp;challenges us to unlock our minds and embark on the kind of self-discovery that’s only possible when we feel most alive—that is, when we don’t know what will happen next.
