Cannon G: The Gears of Leadership

The Gears of Leadership

A Conversational Guide Leading with Vision, Discipline, and Values

Turn enterprise AI into a source of strategic insight, not just productivity gains.The AI Gap by leading AI expert and keynote speaker Richard Foster-Fletcher shows business and technology leaders how to unlock greater value from enterprise AI by changing the structures, processes and culture surrounding it. Organizations invest in AI expecting new intelligence and transformative insights. Yet AI is often introduced through procurement, security, legal and compliance systems designed for standard software, restricting its potential before it can deliver on that promise. This book explains why this gap persists and what organizations must change to close it. You'll learn how to: - Identify organizational barriers limiting the value of AI - Move beyond productivity-focused AI implementation - Create conditions where AI can generate deeper insights - Enable employees to explore, experiment and challenge established thinking &gt;The AI Gap equips leaders to rethink AI implementation, create space for experimentation and turn artificial intelligence into a powerful driver of organizational insight and long-term business value. Themes include: enterprise AI, AI implementation, AI strategy, business transformation, organizational culture, AI innovation

The AI Gap

A leader’s guide to unleashing workforce energy and impact

The Neon Organization

Survival Guide for Executive Leaders, A Playbook for Building Organizations through Purpose, Belonging and Collective Leadership

This brilliantly counterintuitive manifesto from the founder of Miss Excel - who's helped more than 2 million professionals work smarter - shows how pairing opposites, like hustle and rest or logic and creativity, sparks exponential growth in your work and life.You've heard the advice again and again. Hustle harder. Optimise every minute. Stay relevant or get left behind. Learn the tools. Master the tech. Push through.But somewhere along the way, ambition turned into exhaustion, and productivity stopped feeling productive.Kat Norton knows this tension firsthand. After burning out in corporate consulting and later building Miss Excel into a multi-million-dollar education company reaching over 2 million people, she discovered a counterintuitive truth: Real growth doesn't come from choosing one side of a spectrum. It comes from pairing opposites so they amplify each other.In Your Untapped Edge, Kat introduces a practical, repeatable framework for navigating modern work by holding "both/and" instead of "either/or," including how to:Identify where you're overusing one approach - and what's missing on the other sideDesign workdays around energy, not just timePair technical skills with mindset and nervous-system regulationUse AI as an engine while keeping human judgment as the edge Hustle becomes sustainable when balanced with stillness. Productivity accelerates when paired with purpose. Logic sharpens when it collaborates with creativity. Even AI becomes more powerful when guided by human intuition. Kat calls this dynamic polarity - the practice of intentionally pairing opposites so they amplify one another. This creates the 1+1=3 effect, and it's the hidden multiplier behind exponential progress.Through practical tools, science-backed mindset practices, and real-world workplace examples, Kat shows you how to make your hustle more holistic, so you can manage your energy, make clearer decisions, and balance priorities in ways that lead to promotions, increased impact, and sustainable momentum.

Harness the Power of Opposites to Create Time, Prevent Burnout, and Excel in What Matters

Your Untapped Edge

Mark Bowling has had some incredible mentors - Cam Lanier and Regi Campbell top the list. Their impact on his life has been profound, for which he is extremely grateful. You probably have your own list. And chances are, you're on someone else’s. Gravitude provides you (and your organization) with the tools to grow that second list.&nbsp;Gratitude isn’t just a virtue - it’s a force that shapes the success of organizations. Gravitude reveals how leaders can harness this powerful force through six foundational pillars: Phileo Love, Trust, Teamwork, BHAGs (Big Hairy Audacious Goals), Legacy, and Identity. Just as gravity strengthens with mass, the presence of these pillars amplifies Gravitude—a measurable force that fosters engagement, loyalty, and organizational excellence.Featuring exclusive insights from top executives - including&nbsp;Dave Katz&nbsp;(President &amp; COO, Coca-Cola Consolidated),&nbsp;Glen Jackson&nbsp;(Co-Founder, Jackson Spalding),&nbsp;Tim Fisher&nbsp;(President, Jackson + Coker),&nbsp;Jeff Henderson&nbsp;(Executive Director, Leadership Strategy and Innovation, Chick-fil-A),&nbsp;Ben Tyson&nbsp;(CEO, No Longer Bound), and&nbsp;Horst Schulze&nbsp;(Co-Founder, Ritz-Carlton) - this book validates how gratitude transforms workplace culture.Gravitude also distinguishes between fleeting thankfulness and deep, lasting gratitude, explaining why cultivating “grateful fans” leads to greater organizational success than simply creating “raving fans.” Finally, it introduces the Gravitude Quotient (GQ), a groundbreaking tool that enables leaders to measure and strengthen gratitude within their teams."I've often said gratitude completes the connection between an organization and its people. Mark Bowling successfully conveys this mission-critical message, empowering businesses to foster cultures of excellence. At the heart of such excellence - even in an age of automation - is the celebration of people. This is the essence of Gravitude - a much-needed call for organizations to prioritize their people, creating a thriving, purpose-driven workplace."-Horst Schulze, Co-Founder &amp; Former President/CEO, The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company“Gravitude by Mark Bowling is a great read. &nbsp; His insights about the power of gratitude can change the perspective of individuals, families, teams, and organizations. &nbsp;Based on his own life experiences and the wisdom shared by multiple leaders he has interviewed, Mark shares both the principles and practices that make gratitude part of a healthy organization's DNA and lead to personal and professional growth for all.”-Tim Tassopoulos, former President &amp; COO, Chick-fil-A

Harnessing the Force of Organizational Gratitude

Gravitude

The Last Normal Generation is not a nostalgia book. It's a recognition. A recognition that something shifted-not all at once, not dramatically, but gradually enough that most people didn't notice it happening. A recognition that the way we were raised, the way we learned to think, work, communicate, and relate to each other... doesn't quite match the world we're operating in anymore. And maybe more importantly, a recognition that the things we were taught weren't wrong. We just stopped using them.

This book begins in a time that feels almost impossible to explain to anyone who didn't live it. A time when you could leave the house for hours without being tracked, documented, or evaluated. When you didn't have an audience. When you weren't building a personal brand, managing a narrative, or thinking about how your life might be perceived in real time. You were just living it-messy, imperfect, occasionally brilliant, often ridiculous, but real.

There were no frameworks for how to grow. No systems for how to communicate. No carefully structured conversations designed to optimize outcomes. There were just a few simple, unspoken rules: be honest, work hard, don't be a jerk. That was the entire operating system. And somehow, it worked. Not perfectly, not consistently, but enough. Enough to build resilience without calling it resilience. Enough to develop confidence without having to announce it. Enough to understand people without reducing them to categories, labels, or personality types.

It was a world where you built a reputation over time, not a profile overnight. Where people experienced who you were instead of reading about it. Where mistakes didn't follow you forever, and growth didn't require a public statement. There was space-space to be wrong, space to figure things out, space to become who you were without constantly checking to see if it was acceptable. And then, slowly, that space started to shrink.

Not because anyone decided it should. Not because there was a moment where everything changed overnight. But because the environment evolved in ways that felt small at first and significant later. Meetings became more about performance than progress. Conversations became more structured, more filtered, more careful. Communication shifted from saying what you meant to saying what sounded right. And somewhere along the way, we started rewarding how things looked instead of how they actually were.


You'll also see it in the subtle but powerful ways people have adapted-sometimes without realizing it-to environments that reward how things appear over how they actually function. But this is not a book about blame. It's a book about recognition.

Because most of this didn't happen intentionally. People adapted to systems that rewarded certain behaviors. They learned how to communicate in ways that worked. They learned how to present themselves in ways that created opportunity. And over time, those adaptations became the default. The problem isn't that people are being fake. The problem is that they've gotten so used to the version that they've lost touch with what's underneath it.

The Last Normal Generation is for the people who feel that gap. The ones who can sense when something sounds right but isn't. The ones who remember a version of the world that felt more grounded, even if it wasn't perfect. The ones who still believe that being real matters-even when it doesn't always win the meeting.
Especially then.

We Were Raised Right. Then Everything Got Weird

The Last Normal Generation

Turn your difference into a repeatable advantage for leading change The Room Needs You: Let Your Difference Drive Change-The Connect, Trust, Grow Method presents a field-tested method for driving transformation when you are not the expert in the room. Jennifer Langton, the NFL's former Senior Vice President of Player Health and Innovation, came to player safety out of finance-no medical, scientific, or engineering training-and led a decade of work that took the league from the era of League of Denial to record-low injuries. She distills that experience into the Connect, Trust, Grow (CTG) Method: a three-move sequence for connecting the experts, earning trust with evidence no one can dispute, and growing a win into a standard that holds after you leave. The Room Needs You follows the work in the order it happened-learning first to react to injury, then to prevent it, then to predict it-from a partnership with GE and the Department of Defense to the AI-powered Digital Athlete built with AWS, which now predicts injury risk for every player in the league. Underneath it runs the story of the girl on the boys' lacrosse team, the athlete who lost her mother and her knee in the same year and turned both into fuel, and the finance executive who asked her way into a role that did not exist-because the method works on you before it works on the room. Readers will also find: <ul> <li>A three-move sequence-Connect, Trust, Grow-run first on yourself, starting with what you are good at and what fuels you, then on the room, with the questions to answer at each move</li> <li>The Langton Roadmap: a one-page method for making the case for the role that should exist, inside the organization you are already in</li> <li>A clear distinction between the Expert Path, which delivers the science, and the Human Path, which delivers adoption-and why the human path matters more as technology gets more capable</li> <li>Practical guidance on reaching the people who have to adopt your work, setting an evidence standard, and turning a success into a standard that runs without you</li> <li>Real-world lessons from one of sports' most visible transformations, including the NFL-AWS partnership and the day Langton stopped the room The Room Needs You serves leaders, change agents, and anyone building with data or AI who has to move experts, skeptics, and institutions they do not control. It speaks just as directly to anyone at a turning point-a career pivot, a step into leadership, the chance to grow into something larger-and to the athlete leaving the game, the person coming back from an injury or a loss, the student choosing a path: anyone asking what am I good at now, because the method begins with that question. Langton's method equips anyone who has felt out of place in a room to make their difference the reason they belong there.</li> </ul>

Let Your Difference Drive Change -- the Connect, Trust, Grow Method

The Room Needs You

Stand at the base of Mount Rushmore, and you are not looking at managers. You are looking at leaders - people who made decisions that cost them something, who inspired action in others, and who left the world different than they found it. Nobody carves a mountain for someone who ran efficient meetings and hit quarterly numbers.

What separates the leader people remember from the one they endure? It is not a title or tenure. It is character - and character can be developed.

Complete with a ten-item "Study and Discussion Guide," They Don't Build Monuments Honoring Managers is a practical, honest, and immediately applicable guide to becoming the kind of leader worth following. Built around the Nine Traits of Effective Leaders framework - developed and refined through decades of leadership workshops and real-world consulting - this book gives readers a clear picture of what genuine leadership looks like and an honest assessment of where they stand.

Part One: The Nine Traits of Effective Leaders

Each of the Nine Traits receives its own full chapter, grounded in real examples, case studies, and direct analysis:

Great Leaders Innovate - Innovation is a discipline, not a department. It starts with the questions leaders are willing to ask and the assumptions they are willing to challenge.

Great Leaders Create Value Through Values - Values are the operating system of an organization. Great leaders define them, model them, and hold others accountable to them.

Great Leaders Focus on People - The organizations that consistently win treat people as their primary competitive advantage - not in theory, but in daily decision-making.

Great Leaders Communicate Clearly - Most leadership failures have a communication failure at their root. Effective leaders speak with precision, listen with intention, and create space for honest dialogue.

Great Leaders Inspire Earned Trust - Trust is not given because of a title. It is built through consistency, keeping promises, and the willingness to be accountable.

Great Leaders Have Followers - Authority produces compliance. Leadership produces followership. This chapter examines what genuine followership looks like and what happens when it disappears.

Great Leaders Exhibit Integrity - Integrity is a daily practice - doing what you said you would do, especially when it is inconvenient and especially when no one is watching.

Great Leaders Build Great Leaders - The most lasting thing a leader can do is develop someone else. This chapter explores what it means to invest in the people around you as a genuine strategic priority.

Courage: The Trait Behind the Traits - Courage is the ninth trait because it makes the other eight possible. Knowing what the right thing to do is rarely the hard part. Doing it is where most leaders fall short.

Part Two: Leadership in Context

Part Two applies the Nine Traits to the real-world challenges that test them most - translating vision into targeted, measurable work; protecting culture from toxic employees; leading multigenerational teams; building resilience; and navigating change.

Drawing on forty years of experience in leadership development and organizational consulting, Roger W. Smith has written the book he would have wanted when he first stepped into a leadership role - honest, direct, and grounded in reality.

Monuments are not built for people who managed processes. They are built for people who changed lives. If you are ready to stop managing and start leading, this is your starting point.

What if the strongest leaders aren't the loudest in the room-but the most self-aware?

Most leadership struggles don't come from a lack of skill or strategy. They come from leaders who don't know where they truly stand. When leaders rely on control, performance, or certainty instead of awareness, teams comply-but they don't commit.

In Leadership-The Paradox of Surrender, Hilda Koch challenges the traditional leadership narrative and introduces Point A-your true leadership starting place. Not the role you perform. Not the mask you wear. But the honest internal position from which your decisions, reactions, and influence actually emerge.

Drawing on real-world experiences, research-backed insights from psychology and leadership studies, and guided self-reflection exercises, Koch reveals why surrender-not control-is the foundation of trust, clarity, and sustainable influence. You'll uncover the 7 Game Faces leaders wear to protect themselves, learn why masks create compliance but never trust, and discover how disciplined vulnerability becomes a strategic leadership advantage.

This is not another leadership playbook filled with tactics to manage people. It's an invitation to stop performing and start leading. When leaders release illusion and lead from Point A, communication becomes clearer, teams feel safer, decisions require less force, and influence grows naturally.

Surrender in leadership is not weakness.
it is precision.
It is courage.
It is clarity.
If you're ready to stop managing perception and start creating alignment-
If you're ready to lead without armor-
Your journey starts here.
Find your Point A.
Own it.
Lead from it.
