Sustaining the Nexus

Penny T: Sustaining the Nexus

Building Enduring IT Excellence

An acclaimed New York Times Magazine writer brings us into the world of the controversial technology firm Palantir and its very colorful and outspoken CEO, Alex Karp, tracing the ascent of Big Data, the rise of surveillance technology, and the shifting global balance of power in the 21st century. Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends, and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the US government in the war on terrorism—an early investor was the CIA—Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the US military, dozens of federal agencies, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the 21st century. Its CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he’s a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir’s work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp’s close friend and Palantir cofounder Peter Thiel. In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger explores the world of Alex Karp, Palantir, and the future that they are leading us toward. It is an urgent and illuminating work about one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and powerful companies, whose technology is at the leading edge of the surveillance state.

Alex Karp, Palantir, and the Rise of the Surveillance State

The Philosopher in the Valley

A practical method, backed by peer-reviewed research, for reimagining work to create your most distinctive, creative, energetic, and relatable professional self.In far too many organizations, the idea of bringing your 'full self' to the job is a liability.Emotion beyond enthusiasm for the task at hand is deemed unprofessional. Personal identity must be compressed into a carefully curated bio: relatable yet inoffensive.When people are conditioned to flatten the full social and emotional complexities of themselves, spirits dull and progress stalls, in life and in the workplace.But for a growing number of people, especially younger generations, this form of workplace culture no longer works. Surveys show that fewer individuals are willing to sacrifice their time and quality of life for a career, let alone an organization. With an increased focus on purpose, meaning, and mental health, many refuse to scrub their emotions, or the full range of their identities, to keep their professional lives separate.At the same time, in more progressive settings, the encouragement to bring people's full selves to work has sometimes unleashed more authenticity and personal revelation than managers and teams know how to handle.So how do we get it right?Lively and accessible, Human Mode features vibrant stories, expert insights, evidence-based techniques, and 'ah-ha' takeaways you can use immediately.Discover how to engage your inherent superpower - being immensely human - to unlock progress, connection, and achievement in your working life.

Unlock Your Unique Edge and Transform Your World of Work

Human Mode

A gripping and entertaining memoir that shines a rare light on an industry that is disrupting our lives. Veteran Morgan Stanley banker Alok Sama thought he'd seen it all. Then he found himself chief dealmaker at the most influential technology investor in the world-SoftBank, the backer of Arm Holdings, Yahoo, Nvidia, TikTok, Uber, T-Mobile, Alibaba and WeWork.The Money Trap is Sama's thrilling, stranger-than-fiction personal odyssey featuring his experiences alongside SoftBank's iconic founder, Masayoshi Son, a visionary maverick who wants to be remembered as "the crazy guy who bet on the future" and whose mission is "happiness for everyone." Sama takes the reader on a wild journey as he consorts with A-list CEOs and heads of state, and negotiates mega-deals on a Gulfstream jet, Son's sanctuary with its exquisite Japanese garden, and a waterside restaurant in the Turkish Riviera-all while contending with a mysterious dark-arts smear campaign that takes a toll on his private life.This fascinating and humorous saga provides a unique insider perspective on the insanity of high finance and venture investing. Written with self-deprecating wit, unflinching honesty and searing introspection, The Money Trap is ultimately a morality tale: in life, as in technology investing, more money isn't always the answer.

Lost Illusions Inside the Tech Bubble

The Money Trap

Lead with humanity and end the era of management mediocrity. If you've ever vowed to be a better boss than the ones you've had, this book is for you. James (J.R.) Lowry and Daniela De Luca provide an essential roadmap for first-time managers and emerging leaders who refuse to repeat decades of management mediocrity. Drawing on Lowry's experience as a former US Air Force officer, McKinsey partner, and C-suite executive and De Luca's research on career advancement, this comprehensive guide shows how ditching outdated command-and-control habits-and leading with empathy instead-unlocks stronger performance, trust, and engagement in today's teams. Nearly 70 percent of American workers are disengaged, according to Gallup-a clear sign that traditional management approaches are no longer working. In response, Lowry and De Luca offer a practical framework that balances the art and science of management. They reveal the most common misconceptions and mistakes managers make, explain how the manager's role is evolving, and address the mental and emotional preparation required to lead well (even on hard days). Through concrete, actionable practices, Be the Boss You Wish You'd Had shows you how to manage with humanity, both in team practices like delegation and coaching, and in challenges such as office politics and burnout. The result is higher team engagement, stronger productivity, and a workplace culture where people can genuinely thrive. Becoming the leader you always wanted to work for is within your reach. With a relatable blend of research, stories, and advice, Be the Boss You Wish You'd Had is a clarion call to move beyond the "management meh" that plagues many organizations worldwide. J.R. Lowry and Daniela De Luca invite leaders to reclaim the human element of their work and, in doing so, change their own lives and the lives of those they lead.

The Book for Women Who Do It All

Your Time

Submarine Close is about building relationships and our fundamental humanity at the center of leadership, performance, and fulfillment. Submarine Close is a refined version of a timeless truth: When people feel they belong, when they trust those around them, and when they share a clear purpose, they push past limits and achieve the extraordinary. This is more than a leadership philosophy—it is a way of life. It speaks to what we have always needed as humans: to be seen, supported, and empowered to succeed together. Throughout this book, Captain John McGunnigle and John Ranelli—both veterans of the US Navy’s Submarine Force and accomplished leaders in private business—share the stories and principles that make Submarine Close an unmatched approach to leadership and teamwork. You will see how relationships come before issues, how many conflicts can be resolved before they arise, and how empowering individuals at every level creates an unstoppable force committed to excellence. These principles—tested in the crucible of submarine service—forge bonds stronger than steel, relationships deeper than the ocean, and leadership more resilient than any crisis. But, these lessons aren’t just for those who serve beneath the waves. They belong to anyone willing to lead with courage, act with integrity, and create a culture of trust and mission-driven performance. McGunnigle and Ranelli’s hope is that Submarine Close inspires you to build your own relationships—where trust runs deeper than rank, where people matter more than process, and where everyone commits to something greater than themselves.

Leadership Begins and Ends with People from Submarines to Boardrooms

Submarine Close

Lead a business that runs without you and outlasts you. Dan Martell's Buy Back Your Time gave entrepreneurs the blueprint to get unstuck and reclaim their freedom. Now he's back with the lesson that separates founders who scale from founders who stall: learning to let go - and why doing it right changes everything. Let Go to Grow is the book every ambitious leader needs but won't see coming. The entrepreneurs who build great companies without burning out don't win because the market cooperates or their strategy is perfect. They win because they stop white-knuckling their business. Most founders respond to pressure the only way they know how: push harder, do more. Martell shows you why that kills your potential and why real leverage starts the moment you decide to change yourself before you change the business. His three levels of letting go rewire how you lead yourself, your team, and your company so it scales without you carrying it. In this book, you'll discover how to become a "full-spectrum leader," someone who leads with calm authority, holds high standards, and builds systems that grow beyond them. You'll learn: <ul><li>The mindset shift that turns your team into "owners" who chase outcomes and not paychecks.</li><li>How to extend trust at scale and watch your people rise to meet it.</li><li>How to embed culture so deep your team carries it forward without you in the room, and a full toolkit of frameworks to drive excellence at every level.</li></ul> You cannot grow a company you refuse to release. And you cannot release it until you grow. Dan Martell shows you how to do both at once. Let go without losing control, build a company where people think like owners, and lead a movement that scales with or without you in the driver's seat. Let Go to Grow is the next evolution. It starts with you.

Perkins chronicles their nearly four-day ordeal and draws parallels to the world of business, revealing how teams: <ul><li>can work together to overcome obstacles, </li><li>Use teamwork to achieve goals and beat challenges, </li><li>And succeed during difficult times.</li></ul>Into the Storm will help your team achieve extraordinary feats--together.
