An HR Approach to Organizational Design and People Strategy

Workplace Agility

From bestselling authors Senator Elizabeth Warren and Amelia Warren Tyagi, an essential guide to surviving and thriving in a rigged economy If you've ever worried about money-how much you have, need, or want-the problem isn't you. It's an economy that has shifted under your feet. A generation ago, the rules were simple: work hard, buy a home, save a little each month, and build a secure, stress-free middle-class life. But over the last few decades, the rich and powerful have transformed our economy-with a government that too often works for them instead of everyone else. And so housing, college, and health-care costs have all exploded. Jobs are less predictable. And retirement feels further away than ever. But you are not powerless. Drawing on decades of research, public service, and real-world experience, Senator Elizabeth Warren and Amelia Warren Tyagi offer an easy-to-understand guide to how the system really works, so you can take control of your money and build financial stability in the world as it is. In The New Middle Class, you will learn how to: - Build a safety net to protect yourself in a precarious economy. - Grow your paycheck-and stay ahead in a shifting world of work. - Be more strategic on housing in a world where starter homes are disappearing. - Navigate the crush of credit card and student loan debt. - Avoid dangerous scams and rip-offs that can cost big money. - And plan for whatever comes next, whether that's college, childcare, homeownership, or retirement. There is no one more knowledgeable or better able to lead Americans through these tumultuous economic times than Senator Warren and Amelia Warren Tyagi. Yes, the economy has changed, and the new middle-class life won't look like the old one. But with these tools and strategies, you can build your own sustainable American dream.

The New Middle Class

A practical guide to becoming future-ready in the Age of Intelligence&nbsp; The future doesn't arrive all at once-it emerges in signals, patterns, shifts, and stories. Designing the Future is your field guide to making sense of that complexity.&nbsp;In their book&nbsp;SuperShifts, authors Steve Fisher and Ja-Nae Duane&nbsp;mapped the tectonic transformations reshaping society. And now, in their new work&nbsp;Designing the Future,&nbsp;they demonstrate how to take&nbsp;the next step: how to apply foresight methods to your life, your work, and your organization.&nbsp; Designing the Future&nbsp;isn't&nbsp;about trying to predict&nbsp;the specifics of&nbsp;tomorrow.

Whether you're a leader, innovator, or curious learner, you'll build the confidence to see change early and respond with clarity.&nbsp; The book revisits the Macrohistory and the Ages and Eras Theory, tracing long arcs of civilizational change&nbsp;that include the Ages of Faith, Industry, Machines, Digital, and now the Age of Intelligence.

A Visual Guide to Building Future-Ready Organizations

Designing the Future

In a world that worships disruption, the most revolutionary thing you can do is hold steady. For more than a decade, Whitney Johnson preached the gospel of disruption. She co-founded the Disruptive Innovation Fund with Clayton Christensen. Disruption is in her company's name. But over time, a pattern emerged: The leaders and organizations coming to her didn't need more disruption. They needed stability, the very thing our culture has trained us to overlook. Drawing on original research with over 300 professionals across industries, Johnson reveals a striking finding: 96 percent of employees want more stability or a balanced approach to change, yet they experience disruption at nearly twice the rate their managers perceive. The result? Burnout, turnover, and organizations that exhaust themselves with motion that never becomes progress. Meanwhile, research shows companies with stable foundations deliver 80 percent higher shareholder returns over a decade than their peers. Johnson's Steady will show you how to build stability within organizations, how to identify and champion the people doing the invisible work of holding things together, and how to cultivate the inner steadiness that lets you be a grounding force for others. For leaders who have leaned into disruption and found themselves exhausted, for those who sense the relentless churn isn't working, Steady offers a framework for something different. And for those who have been doing the stabilizing work all along, this book is a declaration: Your work matters. It has always mattered.

The Power of Stability in a Disrupted World

Amid unprecedented growth in electricity demand and the rapid buildout of digital infrastructure, energy has become a strategic imperative. A visionary entrepreneur and energy industry pioneer, Michael Polsky has spent the last half-century at the forefront of the innovation, technology, and market shifts that define the energy landscape. With only $500 in cash, four suitcases, and a few words of English, Polsky immigrated to the US from Soviet Ukraine in 1976. Over the next 25 years, he built two successful energy companies before founding Invenergy in 2001. Since then, the company has grown into North America's largest independent energy developer, owner, and operator. Polsky has navigated all forms of politicization and uncertainty to achieve singular scale in the industry, having developed more than 230 projects, including some of the most complex energy infrastructure in the world. Reflecting on his remarkable journey, Polsky draws on his experience across nearly every energy technology to provide a firsthand account of the profound transformation underway. Inexhaustible is a story of deep determination and relentless effort, presenting a pragmatic vision for the future of American energy--and what it will take for us to achieve true energy independence.

'The Wealth Habit shows how small, well-designed behaviours, repeated consistently, create extraordinary financial outcomes over time.' - Steven Bartlett, The Diary of a CEO Wealth doesn't start with money, it starts with a habit. Most people think that wealth is reserved for the lucky few-those born into privilege, gifted with an entrepreneurial streak, or naturally skilled with money. But the truth is, financial success isn't about luck-it's about habits. The Wealth Habit is a groundbreaking, behaviour-driven approach to wealth-building that rewires the way you think about money, turning financial success into a series of tiny, effortless, repeatable actions. Instead of overwhelming readers with rigid budgets or complex investment strategies, this book reveals how small, daily financial moves compound into life-changing wealth - no matter where you start. Whether you're struggling with money, looking to break free from the paycheck-to-paycheck cycle, or searching for a stress-free, automated way to build wealth, this book gives you a clear, habit-based roadmap to make financial success inevitable. Start small. Repeat often. Let the habit lead the way.

'Michael Auerbach has one of the most original minds I've ever encountered . . . This is a dazzling and entertaining book . . . But it is also an urgent warning' PATRICK RADDEN KEEFE, author of Empire of Pain A brilliant exploration of the phenomenon of prediction markets that asks: what happens when democracy becomes another commodity? Prediction markets are sweeping the world, fundamentally changing the nature of gambling - and the very ways in which we attempt to divine the future. Posed as binary 'Yes/No' questions about future events, prediction markets allow any difference of opinion - whether on pop culture or politics, wars or assassinations - to be financialised. A regulatory minefield with moral implications that divide nations, governments and bettors, they have proved as effective at accurately predicting the timing of missile strikes as they have at calling the outcomes of elections.But are these markets really a new phenomenon? And what does it mean when those tasked with safeguarding democracy hold financial stakes in its volatility?From Renaissance Rome, where merchants wagered on papal conclaves, through nineteenth-century London's wartime coffee house gossip, to the Pentagon's ill-fated terrorism futures exchange and blockchain-based betting on Polymarket today, The Big Bet tells the gripping five-hundred-year story of a permissive regime that no one designed and no one voted for.Drawing on deep expertise, Michael Auerbach examines how these markets are changing our world, and what they mean for the future where democracy becomes just another commodity to be priced and traded. Because prediction markets are not an anomaly - they are the logical endpoint of a society that has applied market capitalism to every aspect of life. And in a world where everything is a wager and nothing is off limits, knowing where the chips will fall matters more than ever.

Two of the world's leading researchers on behavior and decision-making join forces to equip readers with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to live our best, most human lives in an age of machines. “The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.” —E.O WilsonOur choices and experience of the world are increasingly shaped by powerful interests and godlike technology. Somebody else is deciding what ‘good’ choices look like—and often that means good for them, not for you. From the social media apps hijacking your attention and algorithms quietly curating your reality, to the markets profiting from confusion and AI systems slowly eroding your thinking: your choices are shaped by people who understand your psychology better than you do, and use that knowledge for their own ends. Against this backdrop, it is easy to feel diminished and 'done to'.This book is about fighting back—individually and collectively—and becoming the best of ourselves. Becoming super-humans. Drawing on over 1,000 experiments run across more than 70 countries, Halpern and Costa show how you can boost your own agency and decision-making, how we can upgrade our systems and institutions so that it is easier for everyone to choose well, and how we can shape AI so that it amplifies human capability rather than replacing it.Super-Human ultimately asks us to make the biggest choice of all: in an age when machines can think, decide and even feel on our behalf—what kind of humans do we want to be? <ul><li>Human. Reclaiming agency and becoming a better decision-maker (Chapters 1-3). Understanding how human attention and sense-making works, so that we can self-guide, rather than be hacked by others - and more effectively turn our intentions into action.</li><li>Supra-human. Building systems that support us to choose well together. (Chapters 4-7). Humans are social creatures, who think aloud and together. It's a feature not a fault. Social networks, markets and institutions strongly enable us to achieve things we could never do alone, but also operate as ‘supra-human’ influences on our behavior. Yet individually and collectively we have power to channel and shape them too - more power than we realize</li><li>Super-human. Shaping the technology that will shape us. (Chapter 8) AI could be the ultimate ‘bicycle of the mind’, but it can also become a crutch rather than a coach. It poses opportunity and challenge - to boost our capabilities to superhuman levels, or to become our inadvertent master.</li><li>Future-human. What kind of humans do we ultimately want to be? (Conclusion) Our minds today have been shaped by the technologies and institutions of our ancestors, in ways they could not have anticipated. We can make choices that will alter our minds and those that follow: what shall we choose?</li></ul>

Reclaiming Our Power to Choose and Shape the Future

Super-Human

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.

Strategies for finding big, long-lasting success.We're drawn to stories of people who succeed against the odds. But what if those stories aren't just inspiring? What if they reveal a strategy?In Your Life Needs a Strategy, Martin Reeves, Christian Stadler, Julia Hautz, and Hamad Buamim argue that extraordinary success is rarely the product of talent or effort alone--and it's never just luck. It comes from knowing how to work with uncertainty: spotting opportunities others miss, experimenting when outcomes are unclear, influencing situations that seem fixed, and creating possibilities that didn't exist before.At the heart of the book is a simple but powerful idea: you can't control the future, but you can shape the conditions that determine your odds. By choosing the right strategy for the environment you're in--and knowing when to shift--you gain leverage over outcomes that once felt random.Success doesn't go to the smartest or the hardest working. It goes to those who understand how success actually happens in complex systems. Your Life Needs a Strategy is a practical guide for anyone who wants to increase their visibility, influence, and impact by thinking more strategically about where to play, how to move, and when to change course.
