A history of intelligence

Four-time World Series champion and Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts pulls back the curtain on one of the most quietly powerful leadership philosophies in professional sports: an unshakable belief in the power of optimism, accountability, and human connection. Baseball is a game of failure, where even the best players succeed three times out of ten. For Roberts, that statistic represents an opportunity. In Relentless Positivity, he reveals how leading through uncertainty, pressure, and loss has taught him the secret to long-term success: meeting people where they are, embracing the mess, and having the courage to show a relentless, almost irrational positivity that helps your team step into its full potential. Drawing on stories from the clubhouse and the world stage—from his iconic stolen base with the 2004 Red Sox to a decade of managing the Dodgers to World Series glory—Roberts shares cornerstone principles that have shaped his approach to leadership and life, including: <ul><li>Be the thermostat, not the thermometer: How to bring the energy your team needs instead of simply reacting to the mood around you. </li><li>Clarity before commitment: Being candid about expectations creates stronger buy-in than getting someone to say yes without understanding what’s required of them.</li><li>Everyone has to want the ball: How to prepare like anyone on the team can be the one who steps up when it matters most.</li><li>Hope changes everything: You can’t always change your circumstances, but you can train yourself to recognize the opportunity that’s still available. </li></ul> Blending stories from a championship locker room with the insights of a master motivator, Roberts delivers a field-tested guide for anyone leading through complexity, whether in the stadium, in the conference room, or at home. Written for a time when our models for leadership are rapidly evolving, Relentless Positivity is a timely manifesto for building strong teams, resilient cultures, and sustaining personal success in any field.

How to Build Teams Worth Believing In

Relentless Positivity

An Introduction

Cultural Theory and Popular Culture

A practical method, backed by peer-reviewed research, for reimagining work to create your most distinctive, creative, energetic, and relatable professional self.In far too many organizations, the idea of bringing your 'full self' to the job is a liability.Emotion beyond enthusiasm for the task at hand is deemed unprofessional. Personal identity must be compressed into a carefully curated bio: relatable yet inoffensive.When people are conditioned to flatten the full social and emotional complexities of themselves, spirits dull and progress stalls, in life and in the workplace.But for a growing number of people, especially younger generations, this form of workplace culture no longer works. Surveys show that fewer individuals are willing to sacrifice their time and quality of life for a career, let alone an organization. With an increased focus on purpose, meaning, and mental health, many refuse to scrub their emotions, or the full range of their identities, to keep their professional lives separate.At the same time, in more progressive settings, the encouragement to bring people's full selves to work has sometimes unleashed more authenticity and personal revelation than managers and teams know how to handle.So how do we get it right?Lively and accessible, Human Mode features vibrant stories, expert insights, evidence-based techniques, and 'ah-ha' takeaways you can use immediately.Discover how to engage your inherent superpower - being immensely human - to unlock progress, connection, and achievement in your working life.

Lo hemos pasado en grande siendo Swifties, y ahora, esa historia —llena de felicidad, amistad, conexión, payasadas y canciones cantadas a pleno pulmón —está documentada en este tributo a la comunidad de fans y la razón por la que estamos todos aquí, Taylor Swift. Todos sabemos cómo empezó: una adolescente de Pensilvania que se mudó a Nashville y pronto ascendió hasta la cima de las listas de música country. Aquí es donde comenzó la historia de Taylor Swift en 2006, pero también es donde empezó nuestra historia como Swifties. Nuestra historia es un emotivo viaje a través de la historia Swiftie, que muestra la evolución de una comunidad de fans que ha sobrevivido al paso del tiempo. Narrado a través de la lente de las experiencias personales, este libro es una crónica del auge de una comunidad que se ha mantenido ferozmente leal en cada etapa. Desde llamar a las emisoras de radio para pedir Tim McGraw, hasta momentos inolvidables en Tumblr en los que Taylor y los fans parecían un grupo de amigos y sobrevivir a una guerra con Ticketmaster —hemos estado ahí. Hemos aprendido lecciones vitales, intercambiado pulseras de la amistad, dominado las matemáticas de los husos horarios para conectarnos a directos, y creado un lenguaje que tan solo otro Swiftie —o la propia Taylor— puede entender. Pero más allá de todos estos momentos compartidos, lo que verdaderamente nos une es el hecho de que las letras de Taylor parecen haber sido escritas solo para nosotros, como reflejos de nuestras propias historias. Esta comunidad de fans, apasionada y única, ha ganado premios y se ha estudiado a fondo, pero, por primera vez, los fans pueden rememorar y celebrar lo que significa ser parte de esta comunidad que te cambia la vida. Una carta de amor escrita por una Swiftie para Swifties, Nuestra historia es una promesa de que nuestra historia jamás será olvidada.

Mastering the Invisible Shifts That Shape Your Career

The Five Stages of Career Growth

The pocket MBA for entrepreneurial moms and women of color&nbsp;who want to build a business from scratch, overcome financial obstacles, and shift the trajectory of their life, from a globally recognized entrepreneur, business coach, and digital educator. While starting a new business is hard for everyone—half close their doors within the first five years—it’s even harder for female entrepreneurs. Ellie Diop, founder and CEO of Ellievated Academy, Fully Funded Co., and Mommy to Millionaire, intimately knows the barriers that historically have kept women from economic freedom. She also knows how to overcome them.&nbsp; From starting her business with a single $1,200 stimulus check in 2020, to becoming a self-made millionaire in her very first year, Ellie has mastered the art of life changing entrepreneurial success—and now, with Girl, Start that Business!, she’s ready to share those secrets.&nbsp; The strategies within these pages are battle tested: Ellie has turned thousands of her clients into profitable business owners. And she’s done so by meeting them where they are. Ellie knows many women are starting from zero—no money, no business plan, no customers. What they do have is a great idea, hustle, heart, and street savvy. This non-judgmental, sassy, and whip-smart pocket MBA is what female entrepreneurs need to turn their dreams into life-changing reality.&nbsp; Let’s go, girl, start that business today!

The Foolproof Plan to Turn Your Idea into Income and Change Your Life

Girl, Start That Business!

Entrepreneurs like Booker T. Washington and Madam C.J. Walker are familiar figures in the history of Black business. But from the hopeful dawn of emancipation to the crucible of Jim Crow, from rural Mound Bayou, Mississippi, to the bustling blocks of Harlem, many others built extraordinary businesses in pursuit of prosperity and freedom. Nevertheless, their efforts to pursue the American Dream were steadily undermined by people intent on profiting on their innovations and reining in their opportunities. Award-winning historian Shennette Garrett-Scott reveals the everyday genius of the people who refused to accept exclusion as identity: former slaves turned cotton mill owners, washerwomen turned financiers, and self-taught visionaries who built banks, real estate empires, and grocery store chains. Their successes were real, but ventures that promised economic independence often provoked backlash as white elites, politicians, and vigilantes tried to contain Black success. Even the boldest dreams often buckled under the combined weight of limited resources and state obstruction.A daring tale, lyrically told, The Business of Freedom reveals the history, strengths, and weaknesses of Black capitalism as a strategy for both individual and collective empowerment and shows why free enterprise alone could never deliver the freedom its champions promised.

The Business of Freedom

Contextualizing Art Markets

Before the tragedy of the Holocaust, many of the leading art and antiques dealers across Europe were Jewish, establishing dynamic cross-Channel, international and transatlantic networks. Aside from a few famous examples, however, we are only at the beginning of exploring the diversity of Jewish dealers' commercial and cultural worlds, and reflecting on the particular conditions that made possible their dramatic expansion within the profession. Adopting a wider geography than any previous study, this book brings together a team of distinguished international contributors to consider Jewish art dealers as an interconnected cohort, tied together by common strategies and a shared vulnerability. After an extended historiographical introduction, the volume presents case studies and trends from 1860-1940, including: Jewish family businesses in Western Europe; the role of Jews as mediators of art from East Asia; the antisemitism and suspicion faced by Jewish dealers; Jews as theorists, exhibition makers and promoters of modern art ; and the geographical mobility and professional reinvention of Jewish dealers in times of economic and political crisis. With a wide variety of illustrations, including paintings, decorative arts, historic photographs and archival material, the volume adopts a mix of methodological approaches to analyse a key chapter in Jewish cultural history and in the history of the international art market. Includes Afterword by Charles Dellheim, author of Belonging and Betrayal: How Jews Made the Art World Modern (2021).

Die vier essenziellen Regeln für Ihren Erfolg im Zeitalter der Künstlichen Intelligenz

Das Future-Proof-Mindset

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.
