Insurance Distribution of the Future

An Interactive Guide for Agents and Brokers

A rollicking guide to&nbsp;a lifetime of choices, full of practical tips for getting the most from&nbsp;your time and money—from economist and international bestselling author Daniel Altman Stuck wondering whether to sell your house? Can’t get a good deal on a used car? Not to worry—economics can help. That’s because&nbsp;economics isn’t just about charts, markets, and prices.&nbsp;It’s also the&nbsp;science of decisions, full of pointers and principles for maximizing your wellbeing every day. Bestselling economist Daniel Altman cracks open the vault of microeconomics, revealing razor-sharp thinking&nbsp;that is&nbsp;refreshingly, actually useful. Through thirty real-world decisions—from “what’s for dinner?” to “how many kids should we have?”—he shows how a small, accessible dose of economics&nbsp;can unlock big&nbsp;gains in time, money, and sanity. The Best Decisions You’ll Ever Make is an essential toolkit for snapping out of&nbsp;decision paralysis and coming out ahead in every&nbsp;tradeoff. It’s an empowering, entertaining user’s manual&nbsp;that you’ll return to again and again—one that’ll supercharge every choice you make.

How to Start Your Own Lawn Mowing Company, With a Small Investment

Critical University Studies

How the cult of capitalism reshaped the American university--and hollowed it out from within.Over the past several decades, American universities have been remade as engines of entrepreneurial ambition. Technology transfer offices, business incubators, pitch competitions, innovation hubs, and leadership centers now sit at the heart of campus life, radically altering how institutions describe their purpose, structure curricula, and imagine student success. The Start-Up Factory argues that this shift has come at a steep cost.James Rushing Daniel traces the rise of entrepreneurialism in higher education and shows how universities came to embrace the figure of the founder as both ideal and benefactor. Business leaders--many of them major donors--are celebrated as singular visionaries, their values imported into academic life and framed as models for intellectual work. This reverence, Daniel argues, has narrowed the university's sense of public responsibility for distorted academics, and transformed institutions into finishing schools for aspiring entrepreneurs. Moving across policy and historical documents, institutional rhetoric, teaching materials, site visits, and interviews, The Start-Up Factory documents how entrepreneurial thinking has reshaped the pedagogy, culture, and mission of the American university.The consequences of this entrepreneurial focus extend far beyond campuses. By promoting the myth of the self-made billionaire, universities help legitimize extreme inequality and normalize forms of power that undermine democratic life. At a moment of deep institutional crisis, when the influence of the billionaire class on college campuses is increasingly absolute and the future of higher education is uncertain, The Start-Up Factory offers a clear-eyed account of how universities arrived here--and why reclaiming their autonomy has become an urgent task.

How Entrepreneurialism Captured Higher Education

The Start-Up Factory

A provocative new theory of "the economy," its history, and its politics that better unites history and economics What is the economy, really? Is it a "market sector," a "general equilibrium," or the "gross domestic product"? Economics today has become so preoccupied with methods that economists risk losing sight of the economy itself. Meanwhile, other disciplines, although often intent on criticizing the methods of economics, have failed to articulate an alternative vision of the economy. Before the ascent of postwar neoclassical economics, fierce debates raged, as many different visions of the economy circulated and competed with one another. In The Real Economy, Jonathan Levy returns to the spirit of this earlier era, which, in all its contentiousness, gave birth to the discipline of economics. Drawing inspiration particularly from Thorstein Veblen and John Maynard Keynes, Levy proposes a theory of the economy that is open to rich empirical and historical scrutiny, covering topics that include the emergence of capitalism, the notion of radical uncertainty, the meaning of demand, the primal desire for money, the history of corporations, and contemporary globalization. Writing for anyone interested in the study of the economy, Levy provides an invaluable provocation for a broader debate in the social sciences and humanities concerning what "the economy" is.

The Purpose-Driven Leader: Navigating Ethical Challenges in a Goal-Obsessed World

In a world where targets rule and success is measured in metrics, what happens when good intentions lead to ethical disasters? Leaders chase promotions, quotas, and wins-only to wake up to scandals, burnt-out teams, and shattered trust. This is teleopathy: the dangerous obsession with goals that blinds us to what's right.

Retired Chief Master Sergeant Mike Lightner knows this trap intimately. With over 30 years in the Air Force leading high-stakes teams on flightlines and beyond, plus decades coaching executives, he's seen policies meant to motivate turn into chaos and incentives designed to inspire lead to corner-cutting. In The Purpose-Driven Leader, Lightner delivers a no-BS guide to spotting teleopathy's symptoms-fixation, rationalization, and detachment-and breaking free with purpose-driven integrity.

Drawing from real military turnarounds, corporate scandals like Enron and Volkswagen, and everyday ethical dilemmas, this book equips you with:
Battle-tested frameworks to balance goals with values and stakeholder needs.
Practical tools like decision checklists, ethics charters, and reflective exercises to make integrity your default.
Inspiring stories of leaders who chose ethics over easy wins-and came out stronger.





Whether you're a mid-level manager, veteran transitioning to business, small-business owner, or anyone tired of goal-obsession eroding your leadership, this book shows how to lead with a moral compass that delivers lasting results.

Don't let ambition destroy what matters. Grab The Purpose-Driven Leader and build a legacy of trust, not regret.

The inventor behind the Leatherman multi-tool and founder of the beloved company presents his inspiring personal story as a practical how-to guide for entrepreneurs, artists, and creatives of all kinds who want to pursue their own big ideas. On a budget trip to Europe in 1975, Tim Leatherman started making a list of ideas for what to do with the rest of his life. After months of fixing the plumbing in cheap hotels and toiling on his temperamental Fiat, Tim added to his list of ideas: “add pliers to pocket knife.” Little did he know he would spend the following four decades building an iconic American company that would go on to manufacture more than 90 million multi-tools in its Portland, Oregon, factory.
