The Psychology of Leadership

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMESBESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MONEY: A USER'S GUIDEWe vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?So why - in the privacy of the therapy room - does money emerge as one of the biggest causes of tension for modern couples? Why is it cited as the major factor in family estrangement between parents, children, and siblings? Why is there a trend for the 'Bank of Mum and Dad' to go to court to retrieve loans they regret handing over?In MONEY: A USER'S GUIDE, Laura showed us how to save into a pension and understand investment. This time, she delves into the really complex stuff - a non-judgemental examination of whether there is a "right" way to share our money with those we love, and what everyone else does behind closed doors. A book that none of us want to admit we need.How do you decide who picks up the bill, or what goes in the joint account? Is your partner being generous or controlling? Is this house mine if your parents paid most of the deposit? How much are you prepared to spend to have a baby? When should we give money to our kids, our mum and dad, our siblings, our community? Should they pay us back? What does everyone else do? Why don't we know? And why does it feel so agonisingly awkward to ask?This is a book of personal finance advice told through real stories about other people's modern money and relationship dilemmas.Laura speaks to financial advisers and wealth managers, marriage counsellors and matchmakers, philosophers, religious leaders, funeral directors and divorce lawyers, to get to the bottom of the questions that can be much more fundamental to our wealth and happiness than where to put our savings.

We vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?

The Modern Money Questions That Could Save Your Relationships

Yours or Mine?

A searing personal account of the so-called troubled teen industry, this graphic memoir exposes and humanizes the harrowing experience of so many young people in behavioral correction facilities. When she was just thirteen years old, Sofia was taken—by two people she had never seen before—to a “therapeutic wilderness program” three states away. Her own mother, terrified that Sofia was spiraling out of control, had enrolled her in an institution for “troubled teens.” But instead of finding healing, Sofia found herself trapped. Trapped inside an unregulated industry that used promises of intervention and reform to prey upon panicking parents and kids with court orders. Over the next two years, Sofia would cycle through four different residential programs. In these places, school hours were a privilege, not a right. Contact with the outside world, including her mother, was strictly monitored. Teenage inmates were encouraged to call one another out. Still a child—ripped from her home, stripped of basic freedoms, and severed from her family and friends—Sofia struggled to understand who she really was beneath the crushing weight of the label BAD KID. &nbsp; A darkly funny and intimate coming-of-age tale, this graphic memoir exposes the harrowing realities of adolescence in and out of the "troubled teen" industry of the early 2000s. And in doing so, Bad Kid explores the lasting impact of the labels we’re given—and how making art can help transmute them.

Bad Kid (a Graphic Memoir)

<div>Learn how the world’s most memorable brands find the words that make them impossible to ignore. Visual identity has its canon. Logos, typefaces, color systems, and design principles have filled bookshelves for decades. But behind every successful brand is another system that shapes perception, builds trust, and creates emotional connection: language. In How Brands Find Their Voice, brand writer and Brand Impact Awards founder Nick Carson gives verbal identity the visual design-book treatment it has long deserved. With a foreword by John Simmons—the acclaimed writer who coined the term “verbal identity”—and built on unprecedented access to leading branding agencies and in-house creative teams, this richly illustrated volume reveals how brand language is developed, expressed, and sustained across every touchpoint. Through in-depth case studies spanning hospitality, technology, consumer goods, and nonprofits, from global institutions to challenger brands, Carson explores how language becomes part of a brand’s DNA. Readers meet the people who do the work and discover how verbal identity emerges from collaboration, research, and craft. Inside, you’ll discover: <ul><li>The evolution of brand voice from advertising copy to modern verbal identity</li><li>How leading agencies develop language systems alongside visual identity</li><li>The strategic thinking behind memorable brand voices</li><li>Different approaches to tone, personality, storytelling, and communication</li><li>How organizations embed verbal identity across teams and touchpoints</li><li>What separates effective brand guidelines from documents that are never used</li><li>The opportunities and challenges that AI presents for brand language</li></ul> Featuring brands such as Ben &amp; Jerry’s, Mailchimp, Virgin, Liquid Death, Innocent, Oatly, and many others—and world-renowned agencies including COLLINS, Wolff Olins, and JKR—the book demonstrates that successful verbal identity is not about clever taglines or isolated campaigns. It’s about creating a coherent language system that shapes every interaction people have with a brand. Filled with photography, packaging, digital experiences, environmental graphics, annotated guidelines, and expert commentary,&nbsp;How Brands Find Their Voice presents language in context, where words and visuals work together to create meaning. For brand strategists, designers, copywriters, marketers, students, and business leaders, this book offers both inspiration and practical insight into one of branding’s most important—and least understood—disciplines.</div>

"Say Yes to the Dress meets Rosemary's Baby" (Margie Sarsfield) in this fresh, darkly funny horror novel in which a woman finally agrees to marry the man of her mother’s dreams. . . only to discover that wedding planning will eat you alive.&nbsp; If Ophelia Cohen learned one thing from her parents, it’s that getting married is a bad idea.&nbsp;But if she’s learning anything from her widowed mother’s dementia, it’s that dying alone is worse. So when she meets Luke—the man of her mother’s dreams—marriage suddenly doesn’t seem so crazy. But none of Ophelia’s obsessive scrolling on wedding forums can prepare her for the nightmare of planning her own. Why is her mother-in-law going crazy over every detail? Why is Luke’s family so eager to host the wedding in their vineyard’s ancient chapel? And what exactly will Ophelia have to sacrifice if she and her mother both hope to survive her special day? Shot through with wicked humor, pitch-black horror, and unexpected romance,&nbsp;Until Death&nbsp;is a deliciously dark and funny send-up of the wedding industrial complex—and a mother-daughter story unlike any you’ve read before. "Recognizes the Gothic horror inherent to planning a wedding and creates from it a painfully incisive and genuinely haunting fever dream.” —Kay Chronister, author of The Bog Wife&nbsp; “Completely unique, deeply unnerving, and deviously funny.” —Samantha Allen, author of Patricia Wants to Cuddle “Grabbed me like a creeping vine and wouldn't let go." —Kerry Cullen, author of House of Beth “Glistens with humor and horror. An electrifying and affecting debut.” —Samantha Hunt, author of The Seas

Unfortunately, Heidi's devoted attention to Klara excites the jealousy of the goatherd Peter, who senses that the stranger has supplanted him in his only friend's affections.

Economics is vital, but its labyrinth of equations can make it feel disconnected from the real world. Enter a powerful tool: the metaphor.From longtime economics journalist Peter Coy comes an approachable and fun guide to the metaphors that unlock its power. With nearly 500 alphabetized entries, complemented by playful illustrations, Economics Without Numbers demystifies concepts, exploring their origins, the truths they express, and where they fall short. The result is a delightful and original primer on economic ideas and history that's perfect for students and anyone who wants to understand what makes the world go 'round.Coy has spent decades collecting these vivid metaphors. From "trickle-down economics" (the idea that making the rich richer will help the poor) to "inductivist turkey" (a parable about the perils of assuming that a trend will persist without knowing its cause), Coy brings economics to life.
