Insights from a Luxury Brand Expert

The Art of Customer Relations

An indispensable guide to dealing with disasters from one of today's foremost thinkers in crisis management, now updated with a new afterword."In a world marred by preventable miscalculation, Juliette Kayyem's The Devil Never Sleeps provides a playbook for making it out alive." -The New Yorker The future may be unpredictable, but nowadays, disasters are not. We live in a time of consistent catastrophe, where things more often go wrong than right. So why do we still fumble when crisis strikes? In The Devil Never Sleeps, Juliette Kayyem outlines a radical new way to prepare for disasters. Traditional principles of crisis management, focused on preventing disasters, are no longer viable. We need a forward-thinking approach that allows us to respond, recover, and build more resilience when crisis occurs. Drawing on her experience in national security and assessing real-life examples-from natural disasters like the California wildfires to human-made ones like airplane collisions-Kayyem identifies common lessons that can be implemented now to limit harm in the future. The Devil Never Sleeps is an essential guide for developing strategies that actually work in the face of perpetual catastrophe.

Learning to Live in an Age of Disasters

The Devil Never Sleeps

Reciprocity begins with a simple but unsettling question: why have we come to believe that human beings are naturally self-interested, competitive and acquisitive? This galvanising, perspective-shifting book dismantles the myth of Homo economicus to show us the way towards a world whose realities align with our true selves.Drawing on a variety of disciplines, including anthropology, archaeology, evolutionary biology, psychology, economics and social epidemiology, Richard Wilkinson demonstrates that the characteristics which we assume to be our human nature are in fact effects of the market societies we live in. He traces how various systems of exchange have created profoundly different forms of social life throughout the course of history, shaping our behaviours, motivations, and the kinds of people we become. Though it may often feel like it, the avarice and oppressions that defines the twenty-first century are not an unchangeable reality we simply have to live with.The book explains why inequality, status competition and consumerism hold so much power over us and reveals the depths to which these forces are entwined with the ever-rising crises of mental illness, political polarisation and environmental destruction. Rather than asking how we can make individuals behave better, it makes a compelling case for restructuring our societies to make life happier, meaningful and more fulfilling for one and all.Rigorously researched, bracingly practical and full of passion and hope in equal measure, Reciprocity offers a bold reinterpretation of the world we live in. It equips us with the necessary tools to look beyond and remake it in our very own, amiably human image.

We are running our lives, teams, and organizations as though our resources are unlimited. They are not. Regenerative People names the cost of that assumption and offers a different way to work, lead, and live. Drawing on six decades of combined coaching and consulting experience, Janet M. Harvey and Silvia Tassarotti trace the shift from extraction to regeneration--from optimizing outcomes to evolving with them, from controlling uncertainty to partnering with it, and from isolating to protect what we have to interconnecting with what sustains us. Regenerative People moves through four expanding circles: the personal renewal that makes all of this possible, the leadership practices that build resilient teams, the organizational models that generate long-term value rather than short-term extraction, and the community-level shifts that make regeneration collective rather than individual. Each chapter pairs concepts with reflective questions and practices, inviting readers to slow down and apply what they're learning rather than simply collect more ideas. The authors write as guides, not lecturers, walking alongside readers the way Virgil walked beside Dante, offering models and questions in search of the reader's own answers. For coaches, executives, and anyone who senses that the old operating model is reaching its limits, this book offers both the diagnosis and the practice: a way to notice drift before it costs something irreplaceable and to deliberately choose a more enduring way to lead.

Regenerative People: Why Renewal Is Key to Lasting Leadership

Eight Keys to Boost Employee Engagement and Well-Being

Road to Flourishing

What it takes to sustain leadership successAt some point in every senior leader's career, the skills that built success stop being enough to sustain it. The work accumulates, the stakes rise, and the gap between performing well and breaking down narrows. Most leadership books train skills at the surface. Conditioned is about what sits underneath them.An athlete trains, competes, and recovers on a schedule with an off-season built in. Leadership has no off-season, and almost no one is conditioned for that. Allen Weaver brings more than twenty years in sport psychology, executive coaching, and Fortune 100 human resources to a consistent observation: the leaders who last are not the ones with the most refined skills, but the ones who built the conditioning that supports them.Conditioned maps that conditioning through the Peak System. Two anchors, Mental Performance (how leaders show up) and Wellness (how they sustain the ability to keep showing up), are expressed across ten dimensions of leadership readiness, each read on a simple three-state scale: Peak, Plateau, and Valley. The book closes with three disciplines for the long climb of a leadership career: Mastery, Future-Proofing, and Legacy.The stories come from boardrooms, locker rooms, and coaching environments: Mary Barra steadied General Motors in crisis, Lisa Su rebuilt AMD, and Rory McIlroy and LeBron James extended their peaks past the age when peaks are supposed to end. Weaver's own path runs from a marathon medical tent to the coaching practice it inspired. Conditioned is written for senior and mid-career leaders who have achieved success and now intend to sustain it.Peak is what can be reached. Plateau is where reliable performance lives. Valley is where the learning happens. The climb begins with conditioning.

A centuries-spanning tour de force that speaks directly to the present, The Global Origins of Capitalism will reshape our understanding of economic history. Democratic market societies are in crisis. Social dislocation, anomie, and global ecological collapse live side-by-side with unimaginable wealth. Alongside real global improvements in health and longevity we find ourselves buffeted by a never-ending cycle of forces beyond our power or understanding. Gradually over a thousand years, and then quickly in the blink of an historical eye, capitalism has taken over human life, transforming our social relations and very consciousness. In The Global Origins of Capitalism, Yochai Benkler describes how this out-of-human-control dynamic evolved to the point where it overwhelmed all opposition, bringing with it both unimaginable prosperity and recurring patterns of inequality and social dislocation, and why all efforts to tame it have, to this point, failed. In doing so, Benkler provides a major reinterpretation of the entire history of modern capitalism, from the founding of Baghdad--the first major proto-capitalist node in a half-globe-spanning network through which institutions and knowledge, technologies and raw materials, people and products flowed--to the present. Innovation, production, trade, and distribution have always involved creation and leveraging of power, yet power is an issue that, over time, the mainstream economics profession came to treat as secondary or even insignificant. For that reason, only a new institutional political economy, one that puts power at the core of our analysis, can help us grasp our condition and point us toward solutions. New technologies created amazing new possibilities for production, but also triggered unemployment, migration, and conflict as new ways of doing things disrupted settled ways of life, making some poor and others rich. The invention of finance made the first capitalist states the most powerful countries in the world, but also introduced the boom-bust cycles that have destabilized modern societies ever since. After charting the entire trajectory of global capitalism through this political-economic prism, Benkler closes with an analysis of our present crisis, in which the system that has governed our lives since the 1970s is collapsing around us. A centuries-spanning tour de force that speaks directly to the present, The Global Origins of Capitalism shows how economic history and political history are really one and the same.
