Human Exceptionality: School, Community, and Family

For&nbsp;today's&nbsp;aspiring&nbsp;leaders,&nbsp;lessons&nbsp;in&nbsp;leadership&nbsp;from legendary Black CEOs Beginning in&nbsp;the late 1990s, a handful of&nbsp;executives&nbsp;rose to become&nbsp;some of the first Black&nbsp;CEOs&nbsp;ever to lead&nbsp;Fortune&nbsp;500&nbsp;powerhouses:&nbsp;Ken Chenault at American Express,&nbsp;Dick Parsons at Time Warner,&nbsp;John Thompson at Symantec,&nbsp;Ursula Burns at Xerox, and&nbsp;Frank Raines at Fannie Mae. In&nbsp;Trailblazers,&nbsp;organizational advisor and&nbsp;journalist&nbsp;Roger O. Crockett&nbsp;recounts the&nbsp;inspiring stories of these titans&nbsp;and&nbsp;relates&nbsp;their hard-won lessons&nbsp;for&nbsp;achieving&nbsp;greatness&nbsp;amid the stunning lack of racial equity that still plagues us today.&nbsp;These trailblazers&nbsp;share&nbsp;an&nbsp;extra&nbsp;dose of&nbsp;resolve and grit, the key to their&nbsp;success despite the&nbsp;difficulties they tackled as Black leaders-what Crockett calls the "alpha-plus" mentality.&nbsp;Trailblazers&nbsp;also&nbsp;homes in&nbsp;on a specific quality that each&nbsp;wielded&nbsp;on their path to the top-from a&nbsp;belief in the power of&nbsp;authentic identity, to&nbsp;a commitment to compromise, or&nbsp;a performance mindset-and offers readers&nbsp;guidance&nbsp;on how to&nbsp;cultivate these qualities&nbsp;in&nbsp;themselves. The&nbsp;members of this group&nbsp;have enlightening perspectives on what it takes&nbsp;for&nbsp;not just&nbsp;Black leaders&nbsp;but any leaders&nbsp;to&nbsp;make it&nbsp;today.¿Their&nbsp;voices&nbsp;are needed now more than ever.

Building a Civilized Workplace and Surviving One That Isn't

The No Asshole Rule (20th Anniversary Edition)

In the fashion and beauty industries, relevance is everything, and innovation is critical to survival in competitive markets. Denise Hardesty Sutton presents a selection of curated case studies to highlight how innovation, often shaped by specific historical, cultural, economic, and socioeconomic influences, is a key factor in pivotal events initiating fundamental change. Drawing on relevant contextual elements and insights from the entrepreneurial impulse-both inside and outside of traditional economic systems-Sutton covers a variety of turning points within the industries, including the introduction of maternity and plus-size women's apparel (Lane Bryant), new textiles, (DuPont's Kevlar), luxury streetwear (Dapper Dan), creative upcycling (feed sacks), new cosmetics markets (Fashion Fair), and business models in beauty (Weleda, Dr. Hauschka). As Sutton examines each case, she positions it within its unique context to illuminate the cultural meanings and impacts of its development alongside wider industry trends like the turn to inclusivity and the growing use of technology in pursuit of efficiency, product development, and problem-solving.

Case Studies in Innovation

Fashion and Beauty

Eminent political economists Ian Budge and Paul Whiteley make a forceful case for bringing the state back into economic planning for better economic and political outcomes. They do so primarily by calling attention to the shortcomings of axiomatic, neoclassical economic theorizing, which makes normative assumptions about how economic actors ought to behave without considering how they actually behave thanks largely to the influence of advertisers and politicians. Revisiting Adam Smith with this in mind, Budge and Whiteley offer original, alternative understandings of individual and collective decision-making; the difference between national economies and "the economy"; the state's role in the provision of public goods; the state's role in dealing with risks, uncertainties, and externalities such as climate change; and the very notion of "supply and demand," which they reconceive as supply-then-demand. The end result is a more robust explanatory model of economics coupled with a normative case for the governance of public goods and markets. All this adds up to a major intervention into the question of how societies organize the extraction and allocation of resources to meet the needs of their constituents.

A Political Theory of Economies and Markets

Leading experts on greenwashing offer a playbook for achieving competitive advantage by combatting misleading claims and building trust. Greenwashing has reached epidemic proportions, and consumer confidence in business sustainability commitments is falling. Those most affected by greenwashing are genuine green firms, and companies truly committed to sustainability goals can find it hard to communicate their commitments and distinguish themselves in this sea of greenwash. These companies need to confront their rivals head on to win the trust of stakeholders. From Greenwash to Green Trust offers a new paradigm for how to gain and maintain competitive advantage in a world of exaggerated green claims. &nbsp;&nbsp;Building on more than a decade of research on greenwashing, Tom Lyon and Wren Montgomery offer a three-step approach for companies determined to rise above their greenwashing competitors:&nbsp;&nbsp; <ul> 	<li> 		Understand why trust has been broken: First, learn how greenwashing works, and hurts, in today's world.&nbsp;&nbsp; 	</li> 	<li> 		Build trust: Then, look in the mirror, acknowledge your own shortcomings, and substantiate your company's commitment to sustainability goals. 	</li> 	<li> 		Leverage trust: Finally, create powerful relationships to outcompete greenwashers and turn integrity into lasting advantage. 	</li> </ul> In the end, the message of From Greenwash to Green Trust is a positive one. While there are plenty of businesses doing the "right" thing on sustainability, with this novel strategic approach to beating greenwashing, businesses can center transparency and trust—to restore consumer confidence and support rapid growth.

In an age of infinite AI-powered possibilities, the leaders who win won't be those who do more - they'll be those who strategically do less. Liberated By Limits reveals the counterintuitive power of constraints and introduces the TAM Framework (Target-Act-Modify), a simple system for using AI as a constraint architect that turns overwhelm into breakthrough. We live in the age of unlimited possibility. AI can draft, design, forecast, simulate, automate, and ideate. Businesses have more dashboards, more data, more choices than any generation before. So why does everything feel harder? Because abundance creates paralysis. In Liberated By Limits, bestselling author and CEO Rajeev Kapur reveals the counterintuitive truth that the world's most innovative breakthroughs - from Apollo 13's survival mission to Pixar's creative process to Southwest Airlines' low-cost model - didn't succeed despite constraints. They succeeded because of them. Now, Kapur argues, AI represents the most powerful constraint tool ever invented - if used correctly. Instead of using AI to generate more options, more expansion, and more noise, leaders can use it to narrow focus, eliminate distraction, and enforce disciplined execution. The book introduces the proprietary TAM Framework: Target - Identify the single constraint that matters most. Act - Deploy AI to enforce disciplined execution around that constraint. Modify - Iterate intelligently based on measurable results. With cinematic storytelling, peer-reviewed behavioral science, and practical Monday-morning exercises, Liberated By Limits bridges the gap between the "do less" movement and the AI revolution - becoming the first business book to connect these two mega-trends.

How Doing More with Less Unlocks Breakthrough

Liberated by Limits

A cultural journey through the world of fragrance, weaving together ancient tradition and modern artistry to tell the untold history of our favorite perfume trends of today. Scent’s grip on how we feel and what we remember is distinct from our other senses. Unlike sight, sound, taste, or touch, smell bypasses the brain’s central relay, going straight to the limbic system where we process emotions and store memories. This means that a single whiff of perfume can instantly evoke nostalgia, moving us in ways we cannot always explain. Perfume has fascinated every civilization for millennia, evolving from a tool for ancient rituals to a $50 billion global industry. But long before France bottled its fame, Arabia perfected the art of scent—not just as a measure of beauty and attraction but also as a display of power. Yes, Chanel revolutionized fragrance with No. 5, Guerlain’s Shalimar reshaped how the East was imagined, and Tom Ford’s Oud Wood brought the scented wood to the streets of London, Paris, and New York. But places like the Arab gulf, North Africa, East Asia, which gave the world much of these ingredients and techniques, have been written out of their own history. Based on months of on-the-ground reporting across four continents, Egyptian American journalist Ola Salem provides a first-hand account of the perfume monopoly, interrogating the “fraghead” revolution, debunking industry stereotypes, and examining what the future of fragrance will look like. From Cleopatra’s perfume factories to the modern-day Sephora counter, from the jasmine fields of Egypt to the frankincense trees in Oman, Salem takes readers on an immersive cultural journey to shine a light on the oft-overlooked corners, cultivators, and creators of the fragrance world.

Scent, Power, and Empire

The Lost History of Perfume

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 has a trillion-dollar problem: the frozen middle-paralysis in the critical layer of management caught between high-level leadership's vision and frontline employees' execution. This paralysis causes even the most promising initiatives to stall out. It 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.

Drama in the workplace is natural, toxic, and optional. Most teams don’t fail because they lack drive or expertise. They break down under the slow grind of drama. Not the explosive kind, but the everyday, compounding frictions that everyone feels and no one names: meetings that go nowhere, issues that never get resolved, and tensions that sap energy and engagement. This “drama tax” erodes trust, stalls decisions, and diminishes performance, often right when the business stakes are highest. No Drama Teams is an intensely actionable guide to recovering this lost momentum. Told through the unfolding story of a real team under enormous pressure, the book shows scene-by-scene how drama is created and how it can be dismantled in real time. Along the way, renowned leadership coaches Diana Chapman and Jim Dethmer share their proven drama-busting tools, like recognizing when you're stuck on the drama triangle, “teaching the class” to end repeating problems, and making clean agreements that people actually keep. Part narrative, part guidebook, the book culminates in a six-month plan that anyone in any industry can use to replace blame with ownership, avoidance with candor, and drag with traction. Every team is paying for drama, whether they see it or not. No Drama Teams will show you how to cut the cost so you can get the full return on your time, energy, and talent.
