Alexander K: J vs. K / LF

J vs. K

Burnout can’t be solved with just perks or stress-reduction workshops. It's solved by changing how leaders engage their teams—a practical shift that requires no new resources. Grounded in peer-reviewed research, Relational Energy shows leaders how small changes in everyday workplace conversations can spark energy, revive exhausted teams, and build workplaces where people thrive. Every leader is dealing with burnout and looking for something they can actually do tomorrow morning, and this is it. In this book, leadership scholar Amy Young, with Kim Cameron, reveals how everyday communication creates relational energy, the powerful force that fuels engagement, creativity, resilience, health and well-being, and performance across teams. Drawing on interviews with energizing leaders and weaving in supporting peer-reviewed research, Young unlocks the secrets to thriving amid uncertainty and disruption due to AI automation, fragile labor markets, cultural divisiveness, and relentless workplace demands. Through vivid real-world examples, you'll discover how energizing leaders sustain their own vitality while lifting their teams at the same time, simply by rethinking how they approach everyday conversations. You'll learn how to turn those ordinary interactions into extraordinary ones, providing a practical, no-cost antidote to workplace stress and burnout. In this book, you will learn <ul><li>how relational energy promotes workplace well-being and performance, creating the foundation for sustainable organizational success;</li><li>strategies energizing leaders use to maintain their own energy levels while navigating the same modern workplace pressures that impact their teams;</li><li>how to have workplace conversations that generate healthy perceptions of challenge and stress and reduce burnout while building resilience and team solidarity;</li><li>specific language choices (wording, pronoun selection, questions, and declarative statements) that empower employees, elevate teams, and drive productivity; and</li><li>how to acknowledge hard realities while building genuine hope and resilience, avoiding toxic positivity that saps energy.</li></ul> Practical, research driven, and immediately applicable, Relational Energy shows leaders how small changes in language can create extraordinary impact, recharging people, teams, and entire organizations.

How most investing decisions differ from what the data say works—and how replacing myth with measurement can improve outcomes. The Accidental Venture Capitalist examines how early-stage investment decisions are actually made—and why so many of them diverge from what the evidence says should work. Written by an academic-turned-venture capitalist Scott Shane, the book sits at the intersection of rigorous research and lived investing experience. Its central premise is simple but uncomfortable: in venture capital, folklore and intuition dominate practice, even though decades of empirical research offer more reliable guidance on selection, pricing, portfolio construction, and incentives. The book follows the full arc of the venture process, from fund design and deal sourcing to valuation, syndication, follow-on investing, governance, and exits. Each chapter takes a familiar maxim—“bet on the jockey,” “do more diligence,” “double down on winners”—and tests it against large-sample academic evidence and real investment outcomes. Shane’s analysis is grounded in power-law economics, behavioral decision-making, and incentive alignment. And he is transparent about mistakes as well as successes, treating his own funds as a living laboratory rather than a victory lap. The book also offers practical tools—checklists, heuristics, simple models—that translate evidence into decisions investors can actually implement.

Why Evidence Beats Instinct in Early-Stage Investing

The Accidental Venture Capitalist

Una lectura para emprendedores que prefieren los consejos honestos a las fórmulas mágicas. Detrás de cada negocio que perdura hay decisiones, tropiezos y aprendizajes que rara vez se dan a conocer. En Horneando el éxito, Gabriel Torres abre la cocina de Pan Gabriel para compartir todo lo que aprendió mientras la construía desde cero. Esta marca de pan saludable empezó como un pasatiempo de fin de semana y hoy llega a las mesas de todo el país a través de 17 sucursales y más de 150 distribuidores autorizados. Este libro va más allá de una historia personal; es una guía práctica para quien sueña con emprender o busca darle rumbo a un proyecto que ya está en marcha. Capítulo a capítulo, Gabriel nos comparte cómo convertir una pasión en un negocio viable, llevar finanzas sanas, escuchar al cliente para innovar, cuidar a tu equipo y mantener el equilibrio entre el trabajo y la vida personal. Además, cada sección cierra con ejercicios pensados para llevar las ideas a tu realidad: definir tu propósito, calcular tu colchón financiero, transformar un tropiezo en oportunidad y reconocer los valores que guían tus decisiones. Escrito desde la experiencia de levantar una empresa en México, con sus aciertos y sus errores, Horneando el éxito acompaña a quien quiere emprender con propósito y paciencia. Porque el éxito, como el buen pan, pide tiempo, dedicación y la disposición de volver a intentarlo las veces que haga falta. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A must-read for entrepreneurs who prefer honest advice over magic formulas. Behind every enduring business are decisions, setbacks, and lessons that rarely make it into the spotlight. In Baking Success, Gabriel Torres opens the doors to Pan Gabriel to share everything he learned while building the company from the ground up. What began as a weekend hobby has grown into one of Mexico’s leading healthy bread brands, now reaching tables across the country through 17 retail stores and more than 150 authorized distributors. More than a personal story, this book is a practical guide for anyone dreaming of starting a business—or looking to take an existing venture to the next level. Chapter by chapter, Gabriel shares how to turn a passion into a sustainable business, manage healthy finances, listen to customers to drive innovation, build and care for a strong team, and maintain balance between work and personal life. Each chapter concludes with practical exercises designed to help readers apply these lessons to their own journey: defining their purpose, calculating a financial safety net, turning setbacks into opportunities, and identifying the core values that guide their decisions. Written from the firsthand experience of building a business in Mexico—with all its successes and failures—Baking Success is an inspiring companion for entrepreneurs who want to build with purpose, patience, and resilience. Because success, like great bread, takes time, dedication, and the willingness to keep trying until you get it right.

Flannery O'Connor on Writing

'I loved it' KIT DE WAAL, author of The Best of Everything'Generous, intelligent, full of wisdom and insight' LILY DUNN, author of Sins of My Father*A transformative guide to creative writing and the power of paying attention.The way we use language to tell stories reveals a lot about who we are and what matters to us. In Between the Lines, Julia Bell draws on almost thirty years of teaching to take us inside the writing workshop, where students from all over the world meet to share and discuss their work. She finds that in this space a kind of alchemy occurs, where&nbsp;paying real attention to one another and what we have to say - the ultimate challenge in our atomised, 'always-on' society - becomes a profound emotional education.&nbsp;Weaving philosophy, psychology and politics together with stories from the workshop, and featuring wise, practical advice on how to go about writing, this generous and thought-provoking book is about the transformative practice of noticing and slowing down. It shows how bad writing teaches us good things, how creativity helps us to see and be seen, and how reading and writing together fosters connection, tolerance, more expansive ways of thinking, richer access to language, new perspectives - and a better understanding of ourselves and others.*'What&nbsp;appears to be a guide to creative writing is actually a brilliant manual for how to exist in groups, to handle painful material, to grow together. Could anything be more necessary or inspiring?' Olivia Laing, author of The Garden Against Time

Life Lessons from the Creative Writing Workshop

Between the Lines

A manifesto in lectures about the material conditions and absurdities of being a writer and adjunct professor under capitalism-by turns funny, angry, despairing, and hopeful-from a writer who "has invented a new form" (Annie Ernaux). 
 
 In the spring of 2025, Heroines and Drifts author Kate Zambreno taught a weekly nonfiction "craft" lecture at Columbia University, thinking through the crises of the adjunct loop in the United States and the question of labor and writing in publishing and the university. This project became more absurd, and more urgent, as the Trump administration quickly turned to authoritarianism and the university became complicit with the administration, creating a dystopian and paranoid atmosphere in which students were kidnapped from university housing and student protestors were expelled. How can we study together and create under such conditions? 
 
 The resulting essays are funny, angry, often in despair, and somehow also full of optimism as to the future of writing, even amidst the collapse of the institutions meant to support writers and students. Zambreno engages with texts including Sofia Samatar's Opacities, Fred Moten and Stefano Harney's The Undercommons, Noémi Lefebvre's The Poetics of Work, Heike Geissler's Seasonal Associate, and Samuel Delaney's Times Square Red, Times Square Blue. 
 
 A craft book against a "craft" divorced from political and material realities, Against Nonfiction is for anyone trying to write and make art in impossible times.
