I Got Laid Off, Now What?

Most people believe entrepreneurs are born with special talents, extraordinary intelligence, inherited wealth from their parents or a natural ability to take risks. This book challenges that belief.Entrepreneurs Are Not Born but Self Made is a practical, story-driven guide to building a business from scratch, written by someone who has done exactly that across three companies and two countries, entirely without outside funding. Drawing from real-world experience serving thousands of customers globally, and from a deeply personal story rooted in a childhood spent asking questions in a crowded Indian bazaar, the book presents a clear, human approach to building something that lasts.Rather than focusing on motivation alone, the book examines what entrepreneurship actually requires: identifying the right business, managing finances and cashflow, building daily habits, executing with speed and discipline, winning the first customer, building systems that scale, and developing a purpose that outlasts any product cycle. Readers will discover that disciplined execution matters more than talent, and that long-term success is almost always the result of continuous learning and consistent daily action.Whether you are a student, a professional ready for your first venture, or a business owner hungry for growth, this book has one message for you: you are going to be a successful entrepreneur. These pages will show you exactly how.Entrepreneurship is not a gift reserved for a select few. It is a skill that can be learned, developed, and mastered.

A Founder's Daily Formula for Global Startup Success

Entrepreneurs Are Not Born but Self Made

Ecosystem for Entreprneurs

Education often teaches us how to become good employees and specialized professionals, yet it rarely prepares us for the fast-changing, challenging world of entrepreneurship. We are surrounded by endless advice-some helpful, some expensive-on how to make money or build a business. But the real question remains: What do you want to create, and how do the ideas of others align with your own goals, values, and aspirations?

This book -'Your Path for Business Success', offers more than information. It provides inspiration, clarity, and a practical framework to evaluate your own ambitions and capabilities. It is both a guide and a workbook-designed to help you plan your entrepreneurial journey, understand the major drivers of success, and anticipate the hurdles you will face along the way.

Magellan Group Professionals and Investors are deeply committed to 
developing the entrepreneurial mindset and skills we believe are essential in the emerging era of AI. If you've ever wondered what entrepreneurship truly means-and what it could mean specifically for you-this book will help you discover it. It will sharpen your focus, strengthen your confidence, and empower you to move toward success with purpose and direction.

Whether leading teams through disruption, innovating with AI, or navigating career pivots, this book offers a shared language and practical framework for moving forward without waiting for certainty.

The Leadership Dance

'A wonderful book.' Cathy Rentzenbrink'A remarkable tale' The SpectatorA giant wheel of Comte¿ - a cheese full of delight, a mosaic of flavour - can sometimes become flat. Despite all that's gone into making it and caring for it, its complexity mysteriously vanishes, its spark dies. Cheesemongers know that. That's why they regularly test the cheeses: they insert a cheese iron deep into the wheel and extract a sample from its core. Sometimes they can cure it and sometimes they can't.A highly successful BBC and Guardian Journalist, somehow Michael Finnerty's life had become flat. His psychological cheese iron told him he needed to make a change, and he becomes convinced his salvation lies in cheese. Michael becomes an apprentice cheesemonger at Borough Market, and is plunged into a world of intense physicality, extraordinary knowledge, and total geeky passion. From learning the cheese's personal nighttime riders - Castillon Frais needs to sit in its box underneath some waxed paper but its box needs to be kept in a plastic sheath, Comté sits unwrapped in a cool cupboard, and has a quick saline bath before bed - to learning intricate ways to wrap their different shapes; from being able to taste nuances between the cheeses, to slicing fingers, bruising toes, getting allergic reactions, and the simple dog-tiredness of being on your feet from the crack of dawn till night, Michael's new job is more demanding than he could ever have imagined - and he loves it. Then when Borough Market is subjected to a terrifying attack, Michael realises through cheese, he has found something even more powerful - community.

The Cheese Cure

Too young to retire, too vital to stand still, too experienced to start from scratch? Welcome to your Bonus Years. Increased longevity has gifted us fifteen-to-twenty extra active, healthy working years, shattering the traditional linear career script of learning, working, and retiring. In The Bonus Years, the world's leading expert on career transition, and London Business School Professor Herminia Ibarra, delivers the definitive, social-science-backed resource for navigating later-career transformation. Ibarra reveals that thriving in an extended work life requires abandoning the old linear, plan-and-implement strategies. Instead, successful reinvention comes through 'resourceful discovery' - a disciplined process of active experimentation, trying on new futures, and knowing when to adjust your course. Whether change has arrived uninvited through an industry shock, or a quiet internal restlessness is telling you it's time to let go, this book provides the actionable tools to build transition mastery and successfully map your path forward. Filled with rich and varied case studies of professionals who reinvented themselves across the globe, The Bonus Years is an empowering manifesto for anyone who refuses to stand still. It is proof that to bloom late is not to bloom less - it is to bloom with deeper roots, on your own terms.

"In a world where change is a constant, the ability to pause, reset, and move forward with clarity is not optional. It's essential. This book is a timely and relevant guide for navigating that journey."- Dr. Sudendra (Suden) Rao, Global Human Resources and Business Leader
Careers do not always move in straight upward lines. At times, they pause unexpectedly, and without warning. In such phases, what one experiences is beyond a mere professional event. It affects one's clarity, confidence, and direction.
What's worse is that it instils concerns, even fears among those in the organization and the sector, even when their career has not paused.
When Careers Pause offers a thoughtful and structured approach to navigating this space. It helps in stabilising thinking, understanding strengths, and moving forward with calmness, confidence, and clarity.
This is not a book about quick answers. It is about gaining the right understanding before action. It is about direction before movement.

THE RULES THAT MAKE US 'With the eye of an anthropologist and the clarity of a storyteller, Oliver Sweet helps us see the water we all swim in - the invisible systems that shape our choices, our communities, and even our sense of self. This book doesn't just explain culture; it restores our ability to see it - to notice what we have stopped noticing ... I read it with gratitude and a sense of recognition: this is how deep seeing begins.' Christian Madsbjerg, author of Look and Sensemaking 'Oliver Sweet does something rare: he captures cultural complexity without flattening it into easy answers. The evidence is rigorous, the thinking is nuanced, and the whole thing feels genuinely contemporary.' Rob Scotland, head of brand marketing at Veo 'A must-read for anyone who wants to understand how the world really works.' Erin Meyer, author of The Culture Map 'Anthropology in technicolour - accessible, sharp and unsettling in all the right ways. It reminds us that culture doesn't just describe who we are; it scripts what we believe is possible.' Dr Lollie Mancey, programme director at UCD Innovation Academy Oliver Sweet's book is not only a highly informative read and riotously entertaining, but it's an important book ... It is a brilliant and truthful account of how culture shapes us, and more importantly how it unites us more than divides us.' Chloe Combi, author, speaker, columnist, consultant 'Policy makers, think tankers, businesses, consultants, listen up: Forget "nudge" and "behaviour change" - culture is where it's at!' Professor Martin Holbraad, director of Ethnographic Insights Lab, UCL 'The Rules That Make Us is more than a guide to culture; it's a framework for seeing the systems that shape belief, behaviour, and belonging. What makes it powerful is that it's not just theory - it's lived anthropology, translated into a way of thinking that anyone can use. This book doesn't just describe the world; it helps you understand how to work with it.' Murray Standford, head of anthropology, Coca-Cola
