Elizabeth Alma Negron: Leadership as a
Calling

Leadership as a Calling

A Self-Reflective Journey to Becoming an Influential Leader

Starting an ABA practice is exciting-and overwhelming. Too many passionate, well-intentioned professionals jump in with big hearts but without a clear roadmap. The result? Burnout, financial stress, sleepless nights, and businesses that collapse under the weight of uncertainty.This book was written to change that.Stephen Smith, founder of 3 Pie Squared and the ABA Business Leaders platform, has spent more than a decade working with ABA business owners across the country. Along the way, he and his wife learned many of the hardest lessons firsthand-navigating sleepless 3 a.m. payroll panics, staff misalignments, underpricing, and the cost of building without vision. Later, through consulting and his podcast, Stephen saw the same patterns repeating in thousands of practices.What sets this book apart is its honesty. Stephen doesn't offer magic formulas or one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, he shares practical guidance, stories, and the key questions every ABA business owner must ask to build something sustainable, ethical, and meaningful. From clarifying your vision and values to avoiding common traps around hiring, clients, and finances, this book is both a guide and a challenge: a way to help you see what you may not have considered-and to act before it's too late.If you're building a typical ABA center or in-home agency, this book will help you create a stronger foundation. If you're creating something unique, it will spark curiosity and imagination, helping you stay aligned with your mission.Above all, this book is an invitation to lead differently-to slow down, think clearly, and build a practice you're proud of.At the end of the day, success isn't about avoiding mistakes-it's about learning from them before they break you.

How to Start, Grow, and Sustain an Ethical ABA Practice Without Losing Your Soul

The ABA Business Leader's Guide

Test more, assume less. Harvard Business School professor Stefan Thomke reveals why leaders should adopt a scientific mindset--and how experimentation drives smarter decisions in an uncertain world.Every day, leaders face high-stakes decisions about products, customers, strategy, and resource allocation. Yet many of these decisions rely on untested assumptions. Overconfidence, gut instinct, and "what worked before" often substitute for evidence, leaving companies exposed to costly missteps. How can leaders navigate today's uncertainty and complexity to make smarter choices?In The Scientific Mindset: How Thinking Scientifically Drives Better Business Decisions, Harvard Business School professor and innovation expert Stefan Thomke offers a compelling solution: adopt a scientific mindset. Drawing on decades of research and using real-world examples, Thomke shows how challenging assumptions, articulating testable hypotheses, and running disciplined experiments transform decision-making. This concise, practical guide introduces a new leadership model grounded in evidence, not just intuition.Through vivid stories--from famous science experiments to companies such as Amazon and Lego reinventing themselves--Thomke demonstrates how experimentation uncovers hidden truths, mitigates risk, and inspires innovation. Readers will learn how to ask deeper questions, design trustworthy experiments, build cultures that value curiosity over certainty, and develop AI systems that ensure reliability while scaling testing. Along the way, Thomke reveals why intellectual humility and a willingness to be proven wrong are hallmarks of great leadership.Adopting a scientific mindset isn't just smart--it's essential for leading effectively today. Whether you're launching a product, rethinking strategy, or making sense of a rapidly changing world, The Scientific Mindset is your road map for making better decisions.

How Thinking Scientifically Drives Better Business Decisions

The Scientific Mindset

Ask a business leader about their HR partners and you'll hear, "They don't understand us." Ask an HR leader about their business partners, and you'll hear, "They don't listen to us."This disconnect is not just a communication breakdown - it's a systemic dysfunction that keeps the greatest engine of a company (its people) sputtering.The Great Leadership Disconnect reveals that transforming HR from a perceived support act into an indispensable commercial force is the responsibility of both business and HR leaders. It diagnoses the dysfunctions that keep HR and business leadership disconnected and challenges conventional thinking with commercial, clear and grounded solutions drawn from behavioral science and real-life leadership dilemmas.The old model of HR as a siloed support function is no longer relevant. HR can be - must be - a leadership amplifier and a business driver, focusing on commercial impact, employee value and the space where impact, performance and people meet.Serkan Deveci is a senior leader at Google with a rare blend of leadership experience in global Sales and strategic HR. Having operated on both sides of the executive table, he offers a unique perspective on aligning talent with business outcomes. A recognized keynote speaker, his work is grounded in his PhD research.

Why HR and business drift apart – and how to bring them back together

The Great Leadership Disconnect

From Eric Ries, creator of The Lean Startup, comes a bold and urgently needed rethink of how organizations are built—and why success itself so often turns companies against the people and principles that made them worth building in the first place. For decades, we've explained corporate corruption as a problem of bad actors, moral weakness, or isolated scandals. But that story doesn't match reality. Again and again, companies founded with strong ideals drift toward short-term thinking, extractive behavior, and mission abandonment—often despite the best intentions of the people inside them. Incorruptible argues that this failure is not primarily ethical. It is structural. As organizations grow, the systems that govern them—ownership, incentives, charters, accountability, and decision-making—quietly reshape behavior. When those systems are poorly designed, even principled leaders are pushed toward outcomes they never wanted. Success itself becomes a form of financial gravity, bending companies away from their original purpose. Drawing on two decades of work with founders, CEOs, investors, and institution builders, Ries shows how these failures arise predictably—and how they can be prevented. He reframes corporate governance not as bureaucracy or compliance, but as a creative and strategic act at the heart of building enduring, mission-controlled companies. At a moment when trust in business is eroding, Incorruptible offers a clear-eyed diagnosis and a practical blueprint for change. Success alone will not protect what matters most. Only incorruptible design can.

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.
