The Influence of User-Generated Content on Brand Trust and Consumer Purchase Intentions

A Meta-Analysis of Existing Literature and Public Data

Fashion and Beauty examines the role that innovation has played throughout fashion history. Moving beyond innovation as mere buzzword, Sutton looks at case studies of moments in history where innovation has initiated fundamental change. In the fashion and beauty industries-where relevance is everything-innovation is critical to survival and is often shaped by specific historical, cultural, economic, and sociological contexts. But innovation has become a buzzword, overused and generalized. Fashion and Beauty: Case Studies in Innovation identifies the various factors that define innovation, and innovation theories such as Schumpeter's, using a case study approach to explore innovative events in fashion and beauty ranging from the creation of maternity and plus-size women's apparel (Lane Bryant) and new textiles (DuPont's Kevlar) to the development of luxury streetwear (Dapper Dan), creative upcycling (feed sacks), and new markets in cosmetics (Fashion Fair) and business models in beauty (Weleda, Dr. Hauschka). The case studies incorporate salient contextual elements that factor into innovative developments as well as the entrepreneurial impulse both inside and outside of traditional economic systems. Sutton explores case studies of moments in history where innovation has initiated fundamental change, including recognition of new market segmentation (the rise of streetwear, beauty's turn to inclusivity), trends that turn into classics (athleisure wear), the creation of entirely new categories of apparel (maternity, plus-size), the use of technology for convenience and efficiency (e-commerce and social media), product improvement (advances in science of skin care), and as part of potential solutions to current fashion industry challenges (plant-based/upcycled products). Ultimately, each chapter considers the historical, political, and social context of each innovation along with its cultural meaning and impact.

Be Confident

This revelatory volume uncovers the significant friendship that shaped Egon Schiele’s most personal and provocative works. 
 Between 1910 and his death in 1918, Egon Schiele cultivated a close, formative relationship with Dr. Erwin von Graff—a Vienna-based gynecologist who would become both friend and collaborator. Egon Schiele: Portrait of Erwin von Graff is the first publication to examine this vital connection in depth, revealing how Graff’s medical practice and personal support influenced one of the most expressive and psychologically charged bodies of work in modern art. Through Graff’s private diary and newly uncovered archival material, art historian Elisabeth Dutz traces a compelling narrative of creative exchange and trust. Graff granted Schiele access to his patients—pregnant women, newborns, and postpartum mothers—opening a world that Schiele captured with raw, emotional intensity. Their friendship, which began with a painted portrait offered in gratitude for a favor, evolved into a lasting exchange that deeply influenced Schiele’s exploration of the human body, emotional vulnerability, and the complexities of life and death. Published in connection with a special exhibition at the Neue Galerie New York, this beautifully produced volume is richly illustrated with Schiele’s works from this period, as well as never-before-seen photographs and documents. It offers new insight into the artist’s inner world and illuminates a significant chapter in his development. A must-have for admirers of Schiele, this book deepens our understanding of his oeuvre and the relationships that helped shape it.

How to Build Influence and Drive Change

Leading Without the Title

Crownless Leader: ''How to Influence Without Ego, Command Without Control, and Build Legacy Through Service''
Leadership is often mistaken for titles, crowns, or applause. Crownless Leader redefines it as something deeper: the invisible crown of service. Obinna Okeke shows that true influence is not about ego or dominance but about humility, courage, and stewardship.
This book takes readers on a journey through three timeless stages of leadership:
¿ The Vessel - building inner strength, resilience, and discipline.
¿ The Circle - cultivating trust, belonging, and community.
¿ The Flame - passing values forward, igniting renewal, and leaving a legacy that endures.
Anchored by lessons from leaders across the world Nelson Mandela's reconciliation, Mother Teresa's compassion, Kofi Annan's ethical dialogue, Angela Merkel's consequence mapping and enriched with examples from UK figures such as Winston Churchill's resilience in crisis, but transformative stewardship, Crownless Leader blends storytelling with practical frameworks. Each chapter offers actionable tools, reflection exercises, and reminders that leadership is measured not by applause but by the lives uplifted, the communities healed, and the futures secured.
Readers will learn how to influence without ego, command without control, and build legacy through service. They will discover how to lead in times of crisis, nurture inclusive communities, and embed values that endure across generations.
Whether you are leading a family, a team, or a community, this book equips you to embrace leadership as service. It is a guide for ordinary people who want to make extraordinary impact proving that crowns are not required to lead, and titles are not necessary to inspire.
Lead without crowns. Influence without ego. Command without control. Build legacy through service.

Crownless Leader

Are you a sage on the stage--or a guide on the side? Good leaders are one. Great leaders are both.In a market crowded with books about how to tell your story better, Winning Without Persuading offers a breakthrough approach: leadership storytelling built on uncovering the hidden stories that change everything. Esther Choy turns conventional business storytelling on its head, showing that the real power of story in leadership isn't only about spotlighting yourself--it's also about uncovering the overlooked moments, the unseen truths, and the stories waiting inside others that can elevate teams, energize cultures, and drive transformational outcomes.At the heart of Choy's approach is what she calls the T² principle: Transaction × Transformation. Storytelling begins with a goal--to win trust, inspire change, or unlock new opportunities--but its real power lies in what follows. As leaders shift how they see their work, their teams, and themselves, they become more attuned to the hidden stories around them, the unspoken insights that, once surfaced, can reshape everything. Story facilitation isn't just about telling better stories. It's about building a new way of seeing, connecting, and leading

Drawing on extensive inter­views with Mitchell's peers and deep archival research, Powers takes readers to rural Canada, charts the course of Mitchell's musical evolution, follows the winding road of Mitchell's collaborations with other greats and explores the loves that fed her songwriting.Kaleidoscopic in scope and intimate in detail, Travellingis a fresh and fascinating addition to the Joni Mitchell corpus - and one that questions whether an artist can ever truly be known to their fans.

"2.5 Billion Heartbeats is not just a leadership book-it is a wake-up call. A reminder that leadership has never been about titles, corner offices, or authority, but about influence, intention, and the posture of our hearts. Every human life is given roughly 2.5 billion heartbeats, and the question this book dares to ask is simple and unsettling: What are you doing with yours? In a world exhausted by pressure, performance, and empty definitions of success, this book challenges us to slow down long enough to remember that "leadership is not what you do to people, but what you awaken within them."

Written for business leaders, parents, spouses, coaches, teachers, and everyday people who shape lives without ever holding a formal title, 2.5 Billion Heartbeats reframes leadership as deeply personal and profoundly human. This is a call to lead at work-but also at home. To understand that "who you are becoming matters more than what you are achieving," and that the way we show up for our families, our teams, and our communities leaves a legacy far beyond numbers or accolades. Through powerful stories, hard truths, and the H.E.A.R.T. leadership model, this book confronts the lie that leadership belongs to a few and boldly declares that "every heartbeat carries influence, and every life leaves a mark."

At its core, this book is an invitation-to live, love, and lead differently. To stop chasing applause and start building trust. To move from burnout to purpose, from control to compassion, from success defined by profit to success defined by people. As the book reminds us, "One day the noise will fade, the titles will disappear, and what will remain is the way you made people feel." 2.5 Billion Heartbeats will challenge you, stir you, and ultimately call you to lead from the heart-starting today, with the life and influence you already have."
