10 Leadership Lessons from the Black Church

The 8 Hidden Habits to Live Your Richest Life

The Wealth Money Can't Buy

The authors of the New York Times bestseller The Confidence Code explore the nature of women's power?in the workplace, in politics, and at home?explaining how a new model, one designed by and for women, will not only make it possible for women to become their most powerful selves but will benefit everyone. We are living in a moment of unprecedented transformation for women. Despite recent setbacks, women continue to advance in almost every arena?politics, business, education. We are starting to earn more than our husbands. More of us are getting elected to public office. We are better educated than men. Businesses know they need us and are desperate to hire and keep us. Management gurus at top universities say female leaders are the key to success in the 21st century. Of course, not everything is equal yet?and progress doesn't follow a straight line, as the recent Supreme Court ruling makes painfully clear?but the underlying evidence and the long-term indications show that the world is moving inexorably from one dominated by men, as it has been for 2000 years, to one in which women have an equal if not greater say in how things run.If it's all so great, (at least for some of us) why does it feel so hard and why are there so many tensions that no one wants to talk about? Almost a dozen global studies show women improve profits, so why aren't more of us CEOs? We're doing better at school than boys, yet we can't crack STEM? Do women use power differently and do we even want it? Can men ever learn to live with and, yes, love powerful women? And can we ever make real progress if we're still operating in a world built by and for men? Do we still have to become alpha men in skirts?What we need is a new definition of power and a reimagined workplace and homefront that everyone can buy into and benefit from. Drawing on the latest research, interviews with high-powered women, and their own personal stories, Kay and Shipman ask tough questions, surfacing hidden opportunities that draw on women's underappreciated strengths and presenting a new operating system that helps women use their talents to become their most powerful selves.

Power is not working—for women, for men, or for the world. We don’t need to remake women. We need to remake power.New York Times bestselling authors Katty Kay and Claire Shipman are on a mission to reclaim power for women. In the wake of sweeping changes in the way we work, the veteran journalists challenge pre­conceived notions of what power is and what it’s good for, along with the insidious, mostly hidden structures of the status quo that hold women back. What started as a straightforward examination of best practices has become a manifesto for a new form of power, a distinctly female version that is already emerging in workplaces, in politics, and on the home front. It’s a version that is more appealing to women (and most men as well). It offers women a blueprint for shaping their own professional futures, maximizing their impact for the benefit of others, and experiencing the real joy that comes from taking the reins and influencing outcomes. Writing from their own lived experiences, Kay and Shipman interviewed dozens of women of all ages, races, and backgrounds around the world, as well as cutting-edge academic researchers. Taken together, these per­spectives offer a clear-eyed and hopeful redesign of the workplace and our relationships at home, one that puts women in a remade and modernized seat of power. And now is exactly the right moment for women to step into their power. What’s at stake is much greater than the next job; it’s about the need for a new vision of what power can be, for a new code that focuses not simply on hierarchy, on having power over others, but also on purpose, on what power can achieve.Both a prescription for societal change and a pro-fessional guidebook for individual women, The Power Code shows you how to leverage the power you already have, find new sources of power in yourself and your community, and remodel your workplace and your home-life to produce less ego, more joy, and maximum impact.

More Joy. Less Ego. Maximum Impact for Women (and Everyone)

The Power Code

The first Black female CEO of a Fortune 500 company looks back at her life and her career at Xerox, sharing unique insights on American business and corporate life, the workers she has always valued, racial and economic justice, how greed is threatening democracy, and the obstacles she's conquered being Black and a woman. ?I am a black woman, I do not play golf, I do not belong to or go to country clubs, I do not like NASCAR, I do not listen to country music, and I have a masters degree in engineering. I, like a typical New Yorker, speak very fast, with an accent and vernacular that is definitely New York City, definitely Black. So when someone says I'm going to introduce you to the next CEO of Xerox, and the options are lined up against a wall, I would be the first one voted off the island.? In 2009, when she was appointed the Chief Executive Officer of the Xerox Corporation, Ursula Burns shattered the glass ceiling and made headlines. But the media missed the real story, she insists. ?It should have been 'how did this happen? How did Xerox Corporation produce the first African American woman CEO?' Not this spectacular story titled, ?Oh, my God, a Black woman making it.?In this smart, no-nonsense book, part memoir and part cultural critique, Burns writes movingly about her journey from tenement housing on Manhattan's Lower East Side to the highest echelons of the corporate world. She credits her success to her poor single Panamanian mother, Olga Racquel Burns?a licensed child-care provider whose highest annual income was $4,400?who set no limits on what her children could achieve. Ursula recounts her own dedication to education and hard work, and how she took advantage of the opportunities and social programs created by the Civil Rights and Women's movements to pursue engineering at Polytechnic Institute of New York.Burns writes about overcoming the barriers she faced, as well as the challenges and realities of the corporate world. Her classmates and colleagues?almost all white males??couldn't comprehend how a Black girl could be as smart, and in some cases, smarter than they were. They made a developed category for me. Unique. Amazing. Spectacular. That way they could accept me.? Her thirty-five-year career at Xerox was all about fixing things, from cutting millions to save the company from bankruptcy to a daring $6 billion acquisition to secure its future. Ursula also worked closely with President Barack Obama as a lead on his STEM initiative and Chair of his Export council, where she traveled with him on an official trade mission to Cuba, and became one of his greatest admirers.Candid and outspoken, Ursula offers a remarkable look inside the c-suites of corporate America through the eyes of a Black woman?someone who puts humanity over greed and justice over power. She compares the impact of the pandemic to the financial crisis of 2007, condemns how corporate culture is destroying the spirit of democracy, and worries about the workers whose lives are being upended by technology. Empathetic and dedicated, idealistic and pragmatic, Ursula demonstrates that, no matter your circumstances, hard work, grit and a bit of help along the way can change your life?and the world.

Leading Your Organization into the Future

The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking

Two decorated Marine combat veterans turned successful entrepreneurs show how they applied Marine Corps training and values to build thriving businesses, and how readers can apply the same leadership strategies at any organization. In 2006, Platoon Commander John Warren and Company Gunnery Sergeant John ?Top? Thompson led Marines into combat against al-Qaeda in the world's most dangerous city: Ramadi, Iraq. But when they returned home, they found that corporate America didn't appreciate how their skills and values could translate to the business world. So they founded their own real estate lending company, growing it from scratch into a national powerhouse over the course of a decade.Far from producing mindless drones, the U.S. Marine Corps trains its warriors in creative problem solving, adaptability, focus, and courage?ideal traits for anyone in a leadership position at a big company, startup, or nonprofit. In Lead Like a Marine, Warren and Thompson reveal how they applied Marine strategies such as:<ul><li>Do Everything for a Reason </li><li>Train for Culture First</li><li>Be Blunt and Direct</li><li>Avoid Comfort-Based Decisions</li><li>Think Long-Term</li><li> Eat Last</li></ul>The authors distill these and other mindsets, tools, and values into practical advice for anyone in civilian leadership or aspiring to leadership. Lead Like a Marine blends smart, actionable advice with gripping stories of combat as well as tales of entrepreneurial challenges. It offers a counterintuitive guide to leading, innovating, and excelling in any organization.

A NATIONAL BESTSELLERThe U.S. Marines Corps is the greatest fighting force on the planet, but it’s so much more than that: it’s a factory for producing first-rate leaders, problem-solvers, and innovators. In 2006, John Warren and John Thompson led Marines into combat in the world’s most dangerous city: Ramadi, Iraq. But when they got home, employers didn’t understand what they had to offer. Undeterred, they founded their own specialty mortgage company, growing it from scratch into a national powerhouse over the course of a decade.When the two decorated veterans applied the values and training of the U.S. Marine Corps to build a thriving business, they defied corporate America’s expectations. That’s because they realized that, far from producing mindless drones, the Corps trains its warriors in adaptability, initiative, and courage—ideal traits for anyone in leadership.In Lead Like a Marine, Warren and Thompson lay out the simple, universal rules that helped them succeed, from valuing grit and potential over pedigree, to condensing large groups into resilient “fireteams,” to cross-training team members so that anyone can step up to the plate in a crisis. While the corporate world is mired in maintaining the status quo, respecting status, and flattering ego, Warren and Thompson stripped away the fat that prevents organizations from innovating and excelling.Full of smart, actionable advice, gripping combat stories, and entrepreneurial lessons, this book will give you the tools and the training you need to truly lead like a Marine.&nbsp;
