Hausken R: What is This Problem Designed
to Solve

What is This Problem Designed to Solve

In high-pressure environments, success is rarely determined by bold ideas alone. It is decided in the quiet, often overlooked moments when work is almost complete.

In The Rubber Spatula Economy, Christopher Connolly introduces a powerful framework for understanding how small execution failures compound into rising costs, declining quality, and cultural fatigue. Drawing on years inside healthcare and senior living foodservice operations, Connolly explores how unfinished work-missed follow-ups, partial resets, half-implemented training-quietly erodes margin and trust.
Rather than offering productivity hacks or motivational slogans, this book examines the structural forces that make finishing work fragile under pressure. It reframes consistency, efficiency, and accountability as design outcomes-not personality traits.

Through clear, disciplined prose, Connolly argues that organizations do not fail because people stop caring. They fail because systems make completion expensive.

Practical without being prescriptive, philosophical without being abstract, The Rubber Spatula Economy offers leaders a new way to see where value is leaking-and how to build environments where finishing becomes ordinary again.

For leaders, operators, and educators working in hospitality, healthcare, and other complex service systems, this book provides a language for the invisible work that ultimately decides who lasts.

Critical Realism and Morphogenetic Leadership

"This book will give you language for something you felt your whole life but couldn't quite articulate." —From the foreword by Mel Robbins, author of The Let Them Theory You’re not stuck because the problem is too hard. You’re stuck because you want two things that can’t both be true. Every persistent problem — in your career, your organization, or your life — is held in place by something hidden: a system that rewards the status quo, a false constraint everyone has accepted, or an entanglement you haven’t named. But problems can be solved when you know where to look. In The Knot, Seth Godin helps you: <ul> <li>Distinguish between problems you can solve and situations you need to accept.</li> <li>Look for the “but” that reveals entanglements keeping you stuck.</li> <li>See the systems at work, question false constraints, and focus on what actually matters.</li> <li>Create the conditions for change instead of simply hoping for it.</li> </ul> This book closes with more than 60 questions and a step-by-step guide for getting unstuck. And it leaves readers with a simple mantra for creating meaningful work: Name the baggage. Drop the baggage. Ship the work. Problems can be solved. The Knot shows you how.

The Road Less Travelled

Systems Thinking for Effective Managers

Lioness Unleashed is a powerful guide for women who are ready to lead with greater clarity, confidence, and purpose.

Entrepreneur, speaker, author, and business leader Lisa Copeland has spent decades building companies, breaking barriers, leading teams, and helping others recognize what they are capable of achieving. In Lioness Unleashed, she brings together the lessons she has learned from business, leadership, family, faith, reinvention, and personal growth to help women step more fully into their influence.

At the center of the book is Lisa's R.O.A.R. framework: Rise, Own, Act, Restore. It is a practical philosophy for moving beyond hesitation, taking responsibility for your choices, acting with courage, and strengthening the values, relationships, and priorities that matter most.

Through personal stories, leadership lessons, profiles of influential women, and reflections on career, family, community, and legacy, Lisa explores the moments that shape a woman's confidence and direction. She writes candidly about starting over, succeeding in male-dominated industries, navigating professional setbacks, building meaningful businesses, finding her voice, and recognizing that experience becomes more valuable-not less-as women move into the second half of life.

Lioness Unleashed is especially relevant for women who have spent years building careers, raising families, supporting others, and carrying significant responsibility, yet still feel there is another meaningful chapter ahead. Lisa challenges readers to stop viewing age, setbacks, or past seasons as limitations and instead recognize them as preparation for greater leadership.

In this book, you will explore how to strengthen your voice, make decisions with greater conviction, build lasting personal and professional influence, create a meaningful legacy, mentor the next generation, develop financial and entrepreneurial confidence, and surround yourself with women who encourage growth rather than limitation.

Lisa also examines the importance of faith, family, personal responsibility, community, and freedom in shaping a life of substance. Her message is not about becoming louder for the sake of being heard. It is about becoming more intentional about what you believe, how you lead, and what you choose to build.

Lisa Copeland brings significant real-world experience to that message. She has built and led businesses in highly competitive industries, broke global sales records in automotive retail, created programs designed to improve the customer experience for women, transitioned into real estate leadership, and helped grow an organization responsible for billions of dollars in transactions. Throughout her career, she has remained focused on helping people succeed, building strong teams, and creating opportunities for others.

"Lisa Copeland is the leader women have been waiting for. 'Lioness Unleashed' is a powerful call to courage, purpose, and faith. If you're ready to find your voice, stand with conviction, and build a lasting legacy, this book is for you."
- Sharon Lechter, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author &amp; Co-Author of "Rich Dad Poor Dad"

"The world doesn't need women who play it safe. It needs women who lead. Lioness Unleashed will challenge you, sharpen you, and remind you that your greatest influence begins the moment you stop asking for permission."
- Elena Cardone, Entrepreneur, Philanthropist, &amp; bestselling Author

Lioness Unleashed was co-published by Lioness Publishing Group (www.LionessPublishingGroup.com) and Integrity Publishing International (www.IntegrityPub.com).

A Manifesto for Women Who Refuse to Stay Silent

Lioness Unleashed

Companies spend billions installing frameworks into operating systems that were never designed to run them. The language changes. The behavior doesn't.

Ever been told to be "data driven" for a decision already made?

Sat in a meeting about having too many meetings and scheduled another?

Been given a strategy that can't fail because no one defined success?

Those aren't bugs. They're features of a system doing exactly what it was designed to do.

I Think, Therefore I Know isn't another playbook. It diagnoses why organizations resist the changes they claim to want and what it actually takes to stop repeating the cycle.

Drawing on neuroscience, economics, manufacturing history, and two decades of experience across factory floors, software teams, and corporate boardrooms, Brad Nelson explores how incentive structures, measurement dysfunction, and unchecked growth produce organizations that optimize for activity over value, then punish the people who notice.

Inside, you'll explore:
¿ Why roughly 80 percent of software features go unused and what that reveals about how organizations decide what to build
¿ How shareholder primacy reshaped corporate behavior and why the system struggles to justify its own outcomes
¿ The biological effects of stress on cognition and performance and why "work harder" is often ineffective leadership advice
¿ What companies like Toyota and Costco, and leaders like Alan Mulally at Ford, understood about building resilient systems
¿ A practical confidence framework for matching validation effort to uncertainty and risk
¿ Why copying "best practices" fails and how effective organizations adapt principles instead of imitating tactics

This is not a book about what organizations should do. It's an examination of what they actually do and the gap between the two.

Written for leaders, practitioners, and anyone who has watched smart people build the wrong things for the right-sounding reasons.

"Belief doesn't lead to change. Behavior does."
