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.

Konsequenz statt Kompromiss (AT)

The inventor behind the Leatherman multi-tool and founder of the beloved company presents his inspiring personal story as a practical how-to guide for entrepreneurs, artists, and creatives of all kinds who want to pursue their own big ideas. On a budget trip to Europe in 1975, Tim Leatherman started making a list of ideas for what to do with the rest of his life. After months of fixing the plumbing in cheap hotels and toiling on his temperamental Fiat, Tim added to his list of ideas: “add pliers to pocket knife.” Little did he know he would spend the following four decades building an iconic American company that would go on to manufacture more than 90 million multi-tools in its Portland, Oregon, factory. His latest multi-tool is a book. In The Leatherman Book, Tim uses the pieces of his story as tools to help dreamers, entrepreneurs and creatives of all kinds build their own big ideas. Each chapter shares valuable insight into how Tim built his invention and his company—and the lessons he’s learned doing it—including: • You don’t have to be “qualified” to pursue your big idea • If you’re serious about your principles, they become your competitive advantage • Your most important tool is a willingness to figure things out as you go along Weaving storytelling, advice, and never-before-seen photos, this is a visionary and intimate look at a true American icon, meant to inspire and enable dreamers to bring their ideas to life.

Stories, Lessons, and Advice from the Inventor of America's Original Multi-Tool

The Leatherman Book

Most innovation advice breaks down when technology leads the market.
For decades, we've been taught that innovation starts with customer validation, empathy maps, and rapid feedback loops. That approach works when problems are well understood and solutions are incremental. But it quietly fails when feedback loops are slow, expensive, or nonexistent, when the technology itself must exist before customers can even imagine what is possible.
Build First, Market Later is a contrarian but practical book for engineers, technical founders, and system builders working at the edge of what is possible. It explains why breakthrough innovation rarely starts with market demand, why customers often cannot articulate needs for capabilities that do not yet exist, and why the most important innovations emerge from building first, then engaging the market when it is ready.
This book is not a rejection of Lean Startup or design thinking. It is an explanation of their limits, and a guide to when different innovation methods actually apply.
Drawing on examples ranging from lasers and semiconductors to software platforms, AI systems, medical technology, and open-source infrastructure, Farhad Abtahi shows how innovation fails not because of bad ideas, but because of misordered steps. Validation without physics. Stories without systems. Markets consulted before capabilities exist.
Build First, Market Later does not offer a recipe. It offers something more useful: a way to reason about innovation when the usual playbooks stop working.
If you are optimizing features, this book is not for you.
If you are building something that has never existed before, it is.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Adam Grant illuminates the surprising science behind strong connections A vibe—a special connection between people that creates a spark—is an engine of happiness and success. Yet building meaningful ties is one of the most pressing problems of our time. As social media forces face-to-face interaction behind digital screens, communication gets outsourced to AI, and the world becomes more polarized than ever, our loneliness crisis shows no signs of slowing. To reveal how we can forge faster, stronger, and longer bonds, Grant offers groundbreaking studies, expert insights, and myth-busting stories. Filled with the eye-opening takeaways that have brought millions of readers to his books, Vibe teaches us that similarity is not necessary for solidarity, chemistry doesn’t always happen quickly, and closeness doesn’t always take time. Along the way, Grant introduces us to a crew of astronauts who learned to trust people they don’t like, a comedy troupe that swears by taking time apart as a key to staying together, a band that grew closer by learning to fight more, and a journalist who designed a gathering that led to seventy-eight marriages. He also opens up about his personal struggles to find his place as a shy introvert and the lessons that propelled his transformation into an enthusiastic convener. Through these examples and more, Grant uncovers the keys to creating deeper relationships and tighter communities. Vibe will change how you approach your interactions. No matter how good you are at connecting, you can always get better—and help others get better too.

Domain-specific Bodies Of Knowledge In Project Management

This book brings together, develops, and consolidates important core common knowledge components in construction management, with the aim of developing a knowledge domain specific to the concepts of circular economy (CE) and reverse logistics (RL). It places emphasis on the following knowledge domains: foundation knowledge domain; procedural knowledge domain; and theoretical knowledge domain. This book goes further than others in integrating the two themes of CE and RL in integrating the latest research and developments in both these 'Circular Economy' and 'Reverse Logistics' areas.The issue of construction demolition waste and the detrimental impact of the construction industry is a global one; in fact, the construction industry is responsible for over 30% of the extraction of natural resources, and 25% of solid waste generated. This waste has significantly aggravated adverse environmental impacts, including pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. To mitigate this, there is an urgent need for construction organizations to transition from a linear economy to a circular economy. This book elaborates on RL and CE as remedial strategies for waste recovery. This book will make a difference compared to other books on these two themes of 'Circular Economy' and 'Reverse Logistics' areas as its anchored-on knowledge domains. It is a must-read for policy makers, students, and construction management researchers and practitioners.
