THE #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER As seen in TIME Magazine and on High Performance podcast 'This book could change your life' - Time Out 'A remarkable reflection on values and psychology based on hard-won experience' - Rory Stewart Expert advice to master your potential, from the founder and CEO of Discovery and Vitality. Adrian Gore built a company from a single, bold idea into a global financial group serving over 50 million customers across more than forty markets. He didn't just scale a business; he created a whole new shared-value business model, a system so revolutionary it's taught as a case study at Harvard Business School and has been recognized by Fortune magazine as 'changing the world'. In The Four Principles, Gore reveals the framework and guiding principles that powered this success for the first time. Moving beyond standard leadership advice, he explores the behavioural science and 'multiplier effect' that occur when these four principles intersect:<ol><li>Disciplined Optimism: We have a default tendency to seek out negative signals. Learn why choosing optimism is the most rational path to seizing overlooked opportunities.</li><li>Focused Urgency: Why your perceived time to make an impact is shorter than you think. Recognizing this can act as your greatest motivator.</li><li>Declared Goals: Psychologically, avoiding a loss feels twice as important as achieving a gain. Setting bold goals triggers this force, unlocking radical motivation and decisive action.</li><li>The 'Pareto Tail': Building on the other principles, learning to identify and target a few high-power decisions can determine your life's entire trajectory.</li></ol> Gore argues that our instincts, shaped for a simpler, linear world, often mislead us in today's complex, networked age. The Four Principles challenges these outdated mental models and shows you how to harness your potential for truly remarkable results - personally and professionally. 'Demonstrates how to create enduring value' - Larry Fink, Chairman and CEO of BlackRock 'Important reading for those aspiring to leadership or seeking to make an impact on the world' - Lord William Hague, Chancellor of the University of Oxford 'The Four Principles distils decades of leadership and insight into a practical framework that explains what matters - and why' - Sir Mark Tucker, Chairman, AIA Group 'For leaders seeking to create outsized impact' - Ruth Porat, President and CIO of Alphabet and Google

Levi's former CEO--who joined the company after a 28-year career at Procter &amp; Gamble, where dozens of his direct reports became CEOs of other companies--shares how to build great brands and ignite growth.Levi's was lost. For more than a decade, the company that changed how the world dressed had been stagnating--at one point near bankruptcy--as its iconic product, 501 jeans, faded into a nostalgic relic amid more-fashionable competitors.Fast-forward to today. Levi's are back and just about everywhere, from college campuses and concerts to workplaces and red carpets. Influencers style them. Taylor Swift sings about them, and Beyoncé and Post Malone's hit "Levii's Jeans" compares them to a lover's hug. To paraphrase British Vogue, the jeans beloved by James Dean, Marilyn Monroe, Bruce Springsteen, and Kurt Cobain, as well as presidents and protestors, are once again part of the culture, worn by style icons like Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner, as well as moms and dads.This is the inspiring, instructive story of Levi's resurgence, from the CEO who led it.Chip Bergh was a die-hard Levi's fan when he was tapped to be CEO thanks to his track record leading successful brands at P&amp;G. In this brisk narrative, he reveals the most consequential decisions and the six timeless tenets of what he coins "brand-driven leadership" that fueled Levi's revival: origin stories matter; the brand is the business; marketing is an investment, not an expense; be customer obsessed; control how the brand shows up; and play the long game.With rich storytelling and actionable insights, Bergh shows how universal leadership principles returned Levi's to relevance, as he surprises readers with fun facts about the history of the company that introduced denim jeans to the world.For any leader facing crucial strategic choices, and anyone who loves jeans, A Levi's Story is a compelling narrative and a vital resource to start, build, or revive brands and unlock growth.

Change Resilience (HBR Emotional Intelligence Series)

An acclaimed New York Times Magazine writer brings us into the world of the controversial technology firm Palantir and its very colorful and outspoken CEO, Alex Karp, tracing the ascent of Big Data, the rise of surveillance technology, and the shifting global balance of power in the 21st century. Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends, and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the US government in the war on terrorism—an early investor was the CIA—Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the US military, dozens of federal agencies, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the 21st century. Its CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he’s a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir’s work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp’s close friend and Palantir cofounder Peter Thiel. In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger explores the world of Alex Karp, Palantir, and the future that they are leading us toward. It is an urgent and illuminating work about one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and powerful companies, whose technology is at the leading edge of the surveillance state.

Are you tired of failing to finish what you start? Intentional, from productivity expert Chris Bailey, is the motivational guide you need. 'A powerful guide to turning ambition into action' - Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit and Supercommunicators Most of us have no problem setting goals. We know what we want, and we have a pretty good sense of what it takes to get it. But consistently making progress until we've reached that goal is the hard part. In Intentional, Chris Bailey, bestselling author of Hyperfocus, presents a new and better way to accomplish your goals. It turns out, the secret to finishing what you start isn't willpower or the latest productivity hack - it's intentionality. Your deepest intentions are your greatest motivating force. By structuring your goals around the things that matter most to you, whether that's feeling secure in your job, having autonomy over your decisions or being in a community, getting things done becomes second nature. Drawing from the latest productivity research and packed full of practical strategies, Intentional will show you how to:<ul><li>Structure goals to increase the likelihood of completion</li><li>Make unappealing, boring or frustrating tasks more attractive to do</li><li>Lower the chance of procrastinating</li><li>Create a system for tracking progress</li><li>Know when a goal isn't for you - and when it's time to let it go.</li></ul> With Chris Bailey as your guide, finishing what you start is more possible than you think. 'An important new contribution to the genre!' - Cal Newport, New York Times bestselling author of Slow Productivity and Deep Work 'The most productive man you'd ever hope to meet' - TED

How to Finish What You Start

Intentional

The Instant New York Times bestseller 'Masterful' - Adam Grant 'So interesting' - Pandora Sykes 'Wonderful' - Angela Duckworth An essential read to become the most creative, productive, and satisfied version of yourself, from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Range. We are constantly told to 'keep our options open' and 'think outside the box' - but what if endless freedom is exactly the problem? Drowning in a dizzying excess of choice often leads to dread, anxiety, and burnout. In Inside the Box, award-winning author David Epstein reveals a powerful truth: to thrive, you don't need more freedom. You need to build your own box. From navigating an uncertain future to building a life, intentional boundaries breed brilliance: <ul><li>Relationships: Couples who consciously commit are more satisfied than those who simply 'keep their options open'.</li><li>Artificial Intelligence: A lack of advanced microchips forced engineers at DeepSeek into brilliant workarounds, producing a model to rival ChatGPT.</li><li>Business: General Magic - a tech startup with limitless funding - failed spectacularly because they refused to set internal limits.</li><li>Science: The periodic table wasn't born from boundless genius, but the strict demands of a textbook deadline.</li><li>Music: Jazz pianist Keith Jarrett produced the bestselling solo piano album of all time by adapting to a broken piano.</li></ul> Constraints are not obstacles - they are powerful tools we can wield. Weaving gripping storytelling with cognitive science, Inside the Box proves the secret to expanding your potential isn't chasing endless options. It's taking back control and choosing the right limits. 'David Epstein's first two books - The Sports Gene and Range - were brilliant, but Inside the Box is his best . . . I won't think about my own work the same way ever again' - Malcolm Gladwell
