Dispossession or Development?

Navigating Ambiguity to Create L&amp;D Solutions
Being a learning designer means solving problems without a playbook. Sometimes you’re handed a vague request. Other times, you notice a performance gap, a broken workflow, or a missed opportunity and feel driven to create something new. But what if you’re not sure how to start, what to build, or whether it will even work?
Getting Unstuck in Learning Design is your practical guide for those gray areas where many learning designers stall. You will learn to navigate ambiguity and shift priorities seamlessly in your day-to-day learning design work. Expert learning experience designer Melissa Milloway leads you through how to:
<ul><li>Find your spark and turn it into momentum.</li>
<li>Identify the right problem.</li>
<li>Determine where to focus your time and energy.</li>
<li>Use iterative design to test ideas, build credibility, and earn buy-in over time.</li>
</ul>
Whether you’re stuck on a specific project, stuck in routines that no longer serve you, or stuck wondering how to grow in your role, Milloway offers methods to create clarity and momentum. This book will help you think and act like a designer—more curious, adaptive, and willing to move forward before all the details are clear.

Lead with humanity and end the era of management mediocrity. If you've ever vowed to be a better boss than the ones you've had, this book is for you. James (J.R.) Lowry and Daniela De Luca provide an essential roadmap for first-time managers and emerging leaders who refuse to repeat decades of management mediocrity. Drawing on Lowry's experience as a former US Air Force officer, McKinsey partner, and C-suite executive and De Luca's research on career advancement, this comprehensive guide shows how ditching outdated command-and-control habits-and leading with empathy instead-unlocks stronger performance, trust, and engagement in today's teams. Nearly 70 percent of American workers are disengaged, according to Gallup-a clear sign that traditional management approaches are no longer working. In response, Lowry and De Luca offer a practical framework that balances the art and science of management. They reveal the most common misconceptions and mistakes managers make, explain how the manager's role is evolving, and address the mental and emotional preparation required to lead well (even on hard days). Through concrete, actionable practices, Be the Boss You Wish You'd Had shows you how to manage with humanity, both in team practices like delegation and coaching, and in challenges such as office politics and burnout. The result is higher team engagement, stronger productivity, and a workplace culture where people can genuinely thrive. Becoming the leader you always wanted to work for is within your reach. With a relatable blend of research, stories, and advice, Be the Boss You Wish You'd Had is a clarion call to move beyond the "management meh" that plagues many organizations worldwide. J.R. Lowry and Daniela De Luca invite leaders to reclaim the human element of their work and, in doing so, change their own lives and the lives of those they lead.

A People-First Guide to Management

Be the Boss You Wish You'd Had

A guide to organizational transformation targeting the country's trillion-dollar stagnancy problem-the "frozen middle" of corporate America-and offering strategies to overcome bureaucratic setbacks that hinder innovation, profit, and fulfillment Corporate America is stuck. Initiatives are stalling out, strategic plans are fizzling, and even the most promising innovations get buried under bureaucracy. Worse still, profit and employee satisfaction are trending lower. Sound familiar? This is the impact of the "frozen middle"-the critical layer of management caught between high-level leadership's vision and frontline employees' execution. That corporate paralysis traps passionate managers in inertia and stymies senior leadership. And every year it's costing companies billions. As experts in organizational transformation, Jimmy Leppert and Justin Wasserman have spent their careers figuring out how to thaw the frozen middle. Their consulting firm, Empactful Advisors, has led major organizations-including Chevron, Merck, and the Department of Defense-to generate more than $5 billion in cost savings and revenue growth. The key to their success comes from aligning senior leadership and middle management, using empathy and practical frameworks to illuminate the blocks that both sides face, and showing how they can shift from utter disconnect to collaborative goal setting that helps all parties-as well as the company-hit their targets. In Thaw, Leppert and Wasserman share their field-tested methods for turning strategic goals into tangible outcomes. Along the way, they offer a road map for employees at all levels to learn how to move through the bottlenecks that hold their organizations back and facilitate meaningful change. Middle managers will be empowered to unlock stalled careers, and senior leaders will learn how to galvanize their workforce and achieve bold, accelerated change. In the age of AI, a playbook for improving-and celebrating-human contribution is more essential than ever. Sharp, confident, and timely, Thaw is poised to be the definitive book on ending organizational paralysis and unlocking true potential.

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.

This is the updated and expanded edition of the only radical, multidisciplinary, international introduction to intellectual property in its socio-economic contexts. Bringing together voices from law, sociology, economics, political science, and cultural studies from across the Global North and Global South, experts and activists Mat Callahan and Jim Rogers offer a detailed history and analysis of IP before asking critical questions designed to underscore its importance in the broader struggle between capital and the commons. What are the broader implications of IP, whether for agribusiness, pharmaceuticals, education, or entertainment? Is IP law a fundamental pillar of our culture, or has it been used to protect and assert the ownership of, and thus limit, the spread of ideas and creativity? With a chapter structure moving from historical and theoretical foundations to industry-specific conflicts and policy analysis, this book covers the breadth and depth of IP areas, including patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets, as well as emerging issues such as digital rights and biotechnology. Key features include: - voluminous, up-to-date case studies, both Western and non-Western; - an extensive, jargon-busting list of abbreviations of specialized or technical terms; - a new chapter on copyright and socialism; - revisions and updates accounting for the seismic impacts of artificial intelligence. This is a foundational must-read for all researchers, students, and activists interested in critical analyses of IP laws and policies--not just their legal frameworks, but also their broader social, economic, and political implications.
