Practical Wisdom for Positive Corporate Leadership and High-Performing Teams

Behavioral Corporate Governance in Practice provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of corporate governance and its challenges.While covering the key aspects of any board's agenda, the book goes a step further by deconstructing behavioral dynamics and balancing both leadership and oversight in its examination of governance. The book explores the psychological aspects of decision-making and boardroom dynamics, including ethics, morals, rationality, biases, and emotions. Building on these considerations, the author presents a new leadership model in reaction to the classic model of CEO narcissism, one based on strategic and empathetic leadership. A case is also made for the internally and externally balanced board, which exhibits an effective mix of behavioral dynamics and strategic sensitivity to the wider societal context beyond organizational interests. Topics covered include information management, finance, accounting, risk management, fraud and corruption, purpose, risk, strategy, and the role of the external auditor as ally of the non-executive. Case studies and reflection questions throughout the book serve to enhance readers' understanding of the nuances of these topics.This book is essential for postgraduates and practitioners interested in corporate governance, strategy, leadership, and oversight.Online resources for instructors include a set of slides for each chapter.

New Models for Leadership and Oversight

Behavioral Corporate Governance in Practice

Praise for SEA DOG "Charles Stuppard is a prime example of a servant leader. He served his country, and inspires all those lucky enough to know him. Leadership starts with understanding who you are and understanding that in a team you cannot achieve anything alone. Trust is crucial for success; trusting your team members and proving their trust. And there are few people I trust more than my true friend Charles." -Rob Bauer, Admiral, Royal Netherlands Navy; Chair, NATO Military Committee (2021-2025) "Throughout two decades at the Naval War College, Charles Stuppard stood out among thousands of officers for his exceptional leadership gifts. This book, collecting his wisdom over the years, is worth close attention by those aspiring to future leadership in our society." -Alberto R. Coll, former Naval War College Dean and Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense "Charles' story serves as a compelling guide to achieving greatness through servant leadership. We share the resilience of our Haitian American heritage and a Cornell University education, but most importantly, a shared passion for inspiring bold, inclusive, and visionary leadership." -Reggie Fils-Aimé, bestselling author of Disrupting the Game: From the Bronx to the Top of Nintendo "Charles invests in relationships. He communicates authentically. He leads by example where people feel supported, respected and motivated to perform at their best. Leadership is a dynamic process that evolves with experience, reflection, and a willingness to adapt. Charles personifies that ethos of leadership and I am proudof his dedication and service and honored to call him my brother and friend." -Saleem Miyan, former president, Bambu Global &amp; Canopy Defense "It was a pleasure and an honor to read Sea Dog. I integrated several of its lessons into my Introduction to Business class at a local university. I shared this book with my colleague, who teaches Leadership in an Education Doctorate Program. Sea Dog teaches about leadership from an experiential standpoint, beyond a textbook defined leadership style." -Lori Zaher, Professor of Business and Accounting, Assistant Editor

Developing Collective Transformational Leadership

Leadership Team Coaching

Taking a team from average to incredible isn't about working harder or pushing people more; it's about leading differently. This book offers a hands-on roadmap for leaders who want to elevate performance by improving communication, trust, and accountability across their teams.
The book begins by setting the stage for sustainable high performance, helping leaders understand the mindset shifts required before real change can happen. It then explores the importance of social styles and ego states, giving leaders practical insight into how different personalities think, react, and collaborate. 
From there, the focus moves into the conversations that matter most. Readers learn how to navigate tough conversations, manage their own attitude as a leader, and avoid common interpersonal traps like the Drama Triangle, explored in a guest chapter by Karen Pratt. These chapters provide clear tools for reducing conflict, increasing ownership, and keeping discussions productive.
The second half of the book emphasizes leadership in action. Leaders are taught how to lead like a coach, motivate their team, and create a psychologically safe work environment where people feel confident speaking up and taking risks. Chapters on building trust and effective listening show how small daily behaviors compound into strong, resilient teams.
Finally, the book brings everything together by showing how to foster a proactive team and give feedback that drives growth instead of defensiveness. Each chapter includes actionable tips leaders can apply immediately, making the book a practical field guide rather than a theoretical manual.
Whether leading a corporate team, a startup, or a sports organisation, this book helps leaders create the conditions where people consistently perform at their best.

The Highway Home: A Memoir of Ambition, Sacrifice, Leadership, and Finding Your Way Back

What does success really cost?

The Highway Home is a powerful memoir about ambition, sacrifice, resilience, family, and the
hidden price of a successful corporate life. Moving between heavy manufacturing floors,
international airports, corporate apartments, midnight highways, and the glow of computer
monitors, this deeply personal journey explores what happens when professional success comes at
the cost of presence, memories, and time with the people who matter most.

For a generation of professionals whose lives are measured in flight schedules, international time
zones, business trips, and long stretches away from home, this book offers an honest look at the
brutal mathematics of career ambition. It follows the journey from demanding industrial
environments and challenging domestic markets to managing global operations across the Middle
East, Africa, and Europe.

Along the way, the author confronts the realities of corporate competition, including the destructive
"Crab Mentality" that can make professional growth even more difficult. Yet this is not simply a story
about climbing the corporate ladder. It is a story about surviving setbacks, navigating uncertainty,
leading through adversity, and rebuilding from the ground up.

Through memories of family, the loss of childhood experiences, a mother's missing gold bangles,
industrial grease, cascading lines of code, and countless journeys between destinations, The
Highway Home connects the personal and professional sides of a life shaped by relentless ambition.

Written across international departure gates, highways, and moments of solitude, this memoir
examines the emotional consequences of chasing financial security and professional recognition. It
asks difficult but important questions: How much are we willing to sacrifice for success? What
happens when achievement creates distance from the people we love? And when everything is
finally accomplished, where do we truly belong?

More than a corporate memoir or career retrospective, The Highway Home is a story of resilience,
leadership, family, sacrifice, personal transformation, and the search for meaningful success.

It is for professionals navigating demanding careers, entrepreneurs building their futures, leaders
facing setbacks, and anyone who has ever wondered whether the destination is worth the journey.

Because true success may not be defined by the number of countries visited, the prestige of a job
title, or the miles accumulated on a boarding pass.

Sometimes, success is simply finding your way home.
