INFLUENCE WITHOUT POWER STRUCTURES

The Quiet Logic of the Carpenter

Two of the world's leading researchers on behavior and decision-making join forces to equip readers with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to live our best, most human lives in an age of machines. “The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology. And it is terrifically dangerous.” —E.O WilsonOur choices and experience of the world are increasingly shaped by powerful interests and godlike technology. Somebody else is deciding what ‘good’ choices look like—and often that means good for them, not for you. From the social media apps hijacking your attention and algorithms quietly curating your reality, to the markets profiting from confusion and AI systems slowly eroding your thinking: your choices are shaped by people who understand your psychology better than you do, and use that knowledge for their own ends. Against this backdrop, it is easy to feel diminished and 'done to'.This book is about fighting back—individually and collectively—and becoming the best of ourselves. Becoming super-humans. Drawing on over 1,000 experiments run across more than 70 countries, Halpern and Costa show how you can boost your own agency and decision-making, how we can upgrade our systems and institutions so that it is easier for everyone to choose well, and how we can shape AI so that it amplifies human capability rather than replacing it.Super-Human ultimately asks us to make the biggest choice of all: in an age when machines can think, decide and even feel on our behalf—what kind of humans do we want to be? <ul><li>Human. Reclaiming agency and becoming a better decision-maker (Chapters 1-3). Understanding how human attention and sense-making works, so that we can self-guide, rather than be hacked by others - and more effectively turn our intentions into action.</li><li>Supra-human. Building systems that support us to choose well together. (Chapters 4-7). Humans are social creatures, who think aloud and together. It's a feature not a fault. Social networks, markets and institutions strongly enable us to achieve things we could never do alone, but also operate as ‘supra-human’ influences on our behavior. Yet individually and collectively we have power to channel and shape them too - more power than we realize</li><li>Super-human. Shaping the technology that will shape us. (Chapter 8) AI could be the ultimate ‘bicycle of the mind’, but it can also become a crutch rather than a coach. It poses opportunity and challenge - to boost our capabilities to superhuman levels, or to become our inadvertent master.</li><li>Future-human. What kind of humans do we ultimately want to be? (Conclusion) Our minds today have been shaped by the technologies and institutions of our ancestors, in ways they could not have anticipated. We can make choices that will alter our minds and those that follow: what shall we choose?</li></ul>

Reclaiming Our Power to Choose and Shape the Future

Superhuman

A powerful exploration of how spirituality, personal growth, and self-discovery can lead to a more meaningful and fulfilling approach to productive leadership.Spiritual traditions shape people and, in turn, their ethical values and actions, but they rarely come up in discussions of decision-making, leadership, or approaches to job responsibilities. How can their influence be ignored? How can there be genuine conversation if parts of the decision-making process are hidden? Authors Dr. Westina Matthews and Dr. Nat Irvin explore the power of acknowledging and allowing one's spiritual compass to inform their leadership approach. Based on an MBA course at the University of Louisville, the narrative includes examples from guest lectures by a wide range of prominent business entrepreneurs, journalists, and faith leaders, including Ari Goldman of Columbia Journalism School, former Ambassador Andrew Young, Carla Harris, senior client advisor at Morgan Stanley, and many others. Matthews and Irvin advocate for a shift away from the machinery of an organization to a model that is alive, relational, and integrated with one's values. With rich stories and real-world examples, they redefine leadership and success; address leading in tough times; explore the loneliness of leadership and its transformative power; and discuss how leadership stems from inner grounding and is a continual process of discernment in service to creating purpose, meaning, and legacy. The authors provide a space for a unique conversation to answer the questions: who must a leader become before deciding what a leader should do? and how can such insights help one stay rooted in our shared humanity across fields and disciplines?

Forming Leaders through Spirituality, Authenticity, and Core Values

Soul of Management

Transform your leadership outcomes by changing these everyday words From A to THE: The Psycholinguistic Approach to Leadership, Ryan Avery, the 2012 world champion of public speaking and trained organizational psychologist, reveals how small shifts in everyday language create monumental changes in leadership outcomes. Drawing on linguistic data, original research, and real-world stories gathered over the last decade, Avery identifies the specific words that erode trust and weaken authority. The book blends science and storytelling to show why certain common words kill momentum, spark confusion, or undermine connection, and what to say instead. Avery provides replacement language designed to drive clarity, commitment, and trust. Each of the words is examined through psycholinguistic research, giving leaders evidence-based strategies to communicate with greater influence and impact across every interaction. Readers will also discover: <ul> <li>Evidence-based explanations of how specific word choices shape perception, trust, and team motivation in leadership contexts</li> <li>Practical replacement language leaders can adopt immediately to strengthen authority and build deeper connection with their teams</li> <li>Real-world stories from coaching executives, leadership teams, and C-suite professionals across multiple industries over the last decade</li> <li>Psycholinguistic frameworks that connect everyday language patterns to measurable changes in leadership clarity and team commitment</li> </ul> Ideal for CEOs, executives, and leaders at every organizational level, From A to THE provides the research-backed approach to communication that replaces counterproductive language habits with precise, influence-driven alternatives, helping leaders build trust, create clarity, and inspire commitment through the words they choose daily.

The Psycholinguistic Approach to Leadership

From A to THE

Building Social Capital to Address Crisis, Complexity, and Change

Fixing Healthcare

In 1971, Surinder Arora stepped off a plane at Heathrow, a thirteen-year-old boy with limited English who was sent from the Punjab to find a future in a country so far from home. He had to learn a new language and discover shocking truths about his own family - all while working twice as hard as anyone else to prove his worth.

He never imagined that decades later, he would own the very skyline he first saw from the airplane window. From his early days as a waiter at the Penta hotel and trading on the Blackbushe market stalls to building a billion-pound empire, Surinder's journey is a masterclass in grit and Plan B thinking. Navigating the racial tensions of 1970s Britain, the 2008 financial crash and personal tragedy, he turned a struggle for survival into a legacy of hospitality.

Candid and inspiring, this is the definitive story of how one man conquered the high-stakes world of aviation hospitality.&nbsp;

Act on 8 percent understanding and build unstoppable momentum from scratch In Unready: The Suprising Advantage of Acting Before You Feel Ready, Soulaima Gourani, a serial tech entrepreneur, Fortune 500 advisor, World Economic Forum Young Global Leader, and venture partner in the space and defense industry, shares the unconventional operating principle behind her rise from seventh-grade dropout to Silicon Valley founder who raised millions in VC funding and won Best AI Product of 2024. Drawing on her own journey and six years of her weekly podcast interviews with global leaders, entrepreneurs, investors, and changemakers, Gourani introduces the 8% Rule: if you understand eight percent of a situation, that is enough to act. Rather than waiting for perfect information, she demonstrates how action creates momentum and how courage outperforms credentials. The book provides a framework for operating boldly when you feel underqualified, underfunded, or underestimated by those around you. Readers will also discover: <ul> <li>How to convert incomplete knowledge into decisive action using the 8% Rule as your operating framework</li> <li>Strategies for building momentum and winning against the odds when resources and credentials are limited</li> <li>Real-world lessons from Gourani's journey raising millions in VC funding and building an award-winning AI company</li> <li>Techniques for overcoming the paralysis of waiting for perfect information before committing to bold moves</li> <li>Practical guidance on prioritizing courage over credentials and choosing action over analysis in high-stakes situations</li> </ul> Unready belongs on the shelf of entrepreneurs, founders, aspiring leaders, and anyone who has ever felt underqualified or underestimated. Gourani's hard-won framework turns uncertainty into a launchpad for decisive, momentum-building action that defies conventional expectations.

HBR's 10 Must Reads on Organizational Agility (featuring "Agility Hacks" by Amy C. Edmondson and Ranjay Gulati)

Strategies for finding big, long-lasting success.We're drawn to stories of people who succeed against the odds. But what if those stories aren't just inspiring? What if they reveal a strategy?In Your Life Needs a Strategy, Martin Reeves, Christian Stadler, Julia Hautz, and Hamad Buamim argue that extraordinary success is rarely the product of talent or effort alone--and it's never just luck. It comes from knowing how to work with uncertainty: spotting opportunities others miss, experimenting when outcomes are unclear, influencing situations that seem fixed, and creating possibilities that didn't exist before.At the heart of the book is a simple but powerful idea: you can't control the future, but you can shape the conditions that determine your odds. By choosing the right strategy for the environment you're in--and knowing when to shift--you gain leverage over outcomes that once felt random.Success doesn't go to the smartest or the hardest working. It goes to those who understand how success actually happens in complex systems. Your Life Needs a Strategy is a practical guide for anyone who wants to increase their visibility, influence, and impact by thinking more strategically about where to play, how to move, and when to change course.
