Eric G. W. Jones

Jones E: Life Lessons from Two Worlds

Life Lessons from Two Worlds

My Jamaican-American Journey

A gripping and entertaining memoir that shines a rare light on an industry that is disrupting our lives. Veteran Morgan Stanley banker Alok Sama thought he'd seen it all. Then he found himself chief dealmaker at the most influential technology investor in the world-SoftBank, the backer of Arm Holdings, Yahoo, Nvidia, TikTok, Uber, T-Mobile, Alibaba and WeWork. The Money Trap is Sama's thrilling, stranger-than-fiction personal odyssey featuring his experiences alongside SoftBank's iconic founder, Masayoshi Son, a visionary maverick who wants to be remembered as "the crazy guy who bet on the future" and whose mission is "happiness for everyone." Sama takes the reader on a wild journey as he consorts with A-list CEOs and heads of state, and negotiates mega-deals on a Gulfstream jet, Son's sanctuary with its exquisite Japanese garden, and a waterside restaurant in the Turkish Riviera-all while contending with a mysterious dark-arts smear campaign that takes a toll on his private life. This fascinating and humorous saga provides a unique insider perspective on the insanity of high finance and venture investing. Written with self-deprecating wit, unflinching honesty and searing introspection, The Money Trap is ultimately a morality tale: in life, as in technology investing, more money isn't always the answer.

Lessons on Building a Beautiful Life

Still Bobbi

Every object has a story to tell...Fine art. Priceless jewels. Museum-worthy masterpieces. In 1970s New York, the auction world was a velvet-rope affair--until Arlan Ettinger crashed the party.With his wife, Barbara, Arlan launched Guernsey's, a scrappy, anything-goes auction house that turned the industry on its head. Forget Old Masters--Guernsey's sold the unexpected, the irresistible, the downright bizarre. Doors from the legendary Chelsea Hotel. The entire contents of the SS United States. Personal treasures from JFK. If it had a story, Guernsey's could sell it--and suddenly, everyone wanted in.Part business adventure, part cultural time capsule, this is the story of the auction house that proved you don't need millions to own a piece of history--you just need curiosity, a sense of humor, and a willingness to see value where others don't. Because the real magic isn't just in what things are worth--it's in what they mean. A door, a suitcase, a scrap of paper: objects carry the lives, legends, and moments that shaped us. This book is a celebration of that invisible thread between people and things--and the surprising, often joyful ways our stories live on through what we leave behind.

Nine Presidential Decisions That Still Echo Today

Kamal Shair's book is a classic rags to riches story: the village boy, who with determination and education, achieves business success, wealth, more wealth, and then influence and power. What makes it unusual is that it emanates from the Arab world. Rarely among Arabs have individuals from thoroughly modest backgrounds, with no access to links, networks or connections become truly global commercial players. Shair was born in a small town in what was then Transjordan and dragged himself through school (his mother was illiterate), moved to college in Beirut, then sailed off to America (Michigan and Yale) and returned to the Middle East to create a multinational corporate empire engaged in trade, construction and manufacturing. Dar al Handasah - Arabic for House of Engineers - was founded in a small flat in Beirut and today, spans the globe with offices in 37 countries. In its early years, Dar al Handasah fought off competition from established western consultancies to win contracts for prestige engineering throughout the Middle East. Eventually, its activities extended further to Europe, the United States, Africa and Asia. By not following the usual pattern of patronage and favours, Kamal Shair applied a fresh kind of ethic in an environment with a loosely-structured business ethic. In the process, he lived through and witnessed at first hand and at close quarters some of the most dramatic events of the modern Arab world. This is quite an extraordinary tale and a very original prism through which to read the turbulent post-World War II history of the Middle East. At the same time we see the growth, despite all the odds, of one of the world's great engineering and business enterprises in a narrative of epic and inspirational proportions.

The Emergence of an Arab Global Business

Out of the Middle East

Pulitzer Prize–winning former Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson tells our nation’s torturous racial history through his own family’s story, starting with his great-grandfather’s freedom from slavery and threading his way to his own narrative and reaching today’s Black Lives Matter movement, asking whether this time will be different. On March 27, 1829, a wealthy white planter and entrepreneur named Richard Fordham purchased four enslaved African Americans from a woman named Isabella Perman. One of them was journalist Eugene Robinson’s great-great-grandfather, a boy called Harry. Starting from this transaction, which took place in Charleston, South Carolina, Freedom Lost, Freedom Won brings to life two hundred years of our nation’s history through the eyes of the remarkable family that Harry founded. Assigned a formal name—Henry Fordham—and put to work as a blacksmith, he achieved his own freedom a decade before the Civil War. He was there when victorious Union troops marched into Charleston in 1865, ending slavery and guaranteeing liberty for Black people—only on paper, though, and only for a time. Robinson traces the arc of his familial lineage through the repeated cycles in which African Americans have fought their way upward toward freedom and opportunity, been forced back down again, and renewed their determined climb. From his great-great-grandfather’s achievement in becoming a “free person of color” before emancipation to his great-grandfather’s Reconstruction-era success, from his father’s odyssey of the Great Migration to his own coming-of-age during the civil rights movement, Robinson delves into a rich archive of Black narratives, arguing that we still have a long way to go before it is possible to speak of a “post-racial America.” Setting his extensive research within the larger historical context, Robinson provides both an indictment of structural racism and an illustration of how it has been fought and, at times, courageously overcome. Freedom Lost, Freedom Won tells our country’s tortuous racial history through Robinson’s family’s story of struggle and survival, pushing us to consider how far the nation has come—willingly or not—and how far it still has to go.

A Personal History of America

Freedom Lost, Freedom Won

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.
