Just F*cking Do It

24 Principles to Help You Get Out of Your Own Way

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.

How to Increase Your Odds of Doing Extraordinary Things

An HR Approach to Organizational Design and People Strategy

Workplace Agility

Humanity's most spectacular era yet is increasingly within reach.So why are we doing everything we can to hold it back?The bestselling author of The Rational Optimist delivers a daring vision of the future - one that is potentially dazzling, but only if we stop sleepwalking into self-inflicted decline.We're on the brink of a truly spectacular explosion of productivity and prosperity, argues Matt Ridley, thanks to a combination of artificial intelligence, material science and genomic knowledge that is unprecedented in its scope and implications. With characteristic wit and ferocity, he confronts the irrational pessimism that dominates public discourse and examines the bureaucratic bloat, regulatory overreach, ideological superstition and crony capitalism that stand in the way.Optimistic in conclusion but unsparing in its analysis, The Flourishing is a rousing call to achieve and innovate by refusing to settle for a merely adequate future when a magnificent one is within reach.

The Rational Pessimist

Scam World is a big place, encompassing everything from investment fraud to everyday rip-offs. Setting out to discover its strange geography, Zeke Faux ('the funniest finance writer in America' - Matt Levine) takes notes at stadium-sized motivational conferences where paying audiences learn that the only way to reach your dreams is to sell, by any means necessary. He goes undercover, taking a job at a shady Florida call-centre operation fueled by social media ads that 'go out and find the morons for me'.Crossing the globe from India to Dubai to Thailand's Golden Triangle, where gangsters have built an entire city of scams, he explores the psychology of the con artist. What drives someone to choose a life of ripping other people off? And what makes us fall for them? (As one victim of a $100,000 fraud tells him, 'Once my scammer told me how I could make 30% overnight, working for $20 an hour seemed like the real scam.')From Mar-a-Lago to White House, from Wall Street to your street, this is the story of how the 'sell or be sold' mindset went from being a sign of sociopathy to a marker of success.

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

It’s Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

Breaking New Ground

'Michael Auerbach has one of the most original minds I've ever encountered . . . This is a dazzling and entertaining book . . . But it is also an urgent warning' PATRICK RADDEN KEEFE, author of Empire of Pain A brilliant exploration of the phenomenon of prediction markets that asks: what happens when democracy becomes another commodity? Prediction markets are sweeping the world, fundamentally changing the nature of gambling - and the very ways in which we attempt to divine the future. Posed as binary 'Yes/No' questions about future events, prediction markets allow any difference of opinion - whether on pop culture or politics, wars or assassinations - to be financialised. A regulatory minefield with moral implications that divide nations, governments and bettors, they have proved as effective at accurately predicting the timing of missile strikes as they have at calling the outcomes of elections.But are these markets really a new phenomenon? And what does it mean when those tasked with safeguarding democracy hold financial stakes in its volatility?From Renaissance Rome, where merchants wagered on papal conclaves, through nineteenth-century London's wartime coffee house gossip, to the Pentagon's ill-fated terrorism futures exchange and blockchain-based betting on Polymarket today, The Big Bet tells the gripping five-hundred-year story of a permissive regime that no one designed and no one voted for.Drawing on deep expertise, Michael Auerbach examines how these markets are changing our world, and what they mean for the future where democracy becomes just another commodity to be priced and traded. Because prediction markets are not an anomaly - they are the logical endpoint of a society that has applied market capitalism to every aspect of life. And in a world where everything is a wager and nothing is off limits, knowing where the chips will fall matters more than ever.

Rethinking Strategy, Entrepreneurship, and Technological Innovation in a Disruptive World

Managing and Innovating for Sustainable Development

The need for resilience at organisational, department and individual level has never been greater. Geopolitical conflict, climate change, supply chain disruption and political instability are just a handful of the risks that leaders must mitigate to ensure stable business operation and optimum effectiveness. Project resilience refers to the ability of a project or initiative to anticipate, adapt and recover from unexpected challenges, disruptions or uncertainties. It involves the capacity to withstand shocks, maintain functionality in the face of adversity, and quickly recover to a stable state. Resilient projects underpin resilient organisations; a resilient organisation produces sustainable competitive advantage. This book offers a structured framework - the Project Resilience Maturity Model - to assess and enhance resilience in organisations. The authors begin by considering different approaches to project resilience, and by identifying potential tensions therein. In the second part, methods of sustaining project resilience are examined, focusing on the perspective of the project manager, personal responsibility and leadership. The latter part of the textbook provides practical tools and applications to assess and enhance project resilience. Throughout, the authors employ a pedagogical framework designed to ensure maximum effectiveness for students and practitioners. Chapters are organised to reflect the evolution of project resilience maturity and concepts are introduced in a sequential order that builds on what has come before, with Key Takeaways summarising each chapter's most critical points. Fictional case studies illustrate how topics can be implemented in a project management setting, while Key and Dormant Tensions highlight potential blind spots. Demystifying complex topics without sacrificing scholarly rigour, Project Resilience provides you with a strategic approach to ensuring projects are well-equipped to withstand uncertainties and adapt to dynamic conditions. It is the perfect textbook to support advanced Project Management and Organisational Resilience courses, and to provide practical methods for leading responsible organisations.
