Rosengard P: They Only Call Me When
They're Dead!

They Only Call Me When They're Dead!

What if companies do not fail because they ignore the future, but because they prepare for it? Business history is usually told through reassuring stories about complacency. Kodak failed to understand digital photography. Nokia missed the smartphone. Detroit underestimated electric vehicles. The lesson appears obvious: pay attention, embrace change and invest early. There is only one problem. The story is often wrong. The global automobile industry did not ignore the future. For more than a decade, its leaders talked incessantly about electrification, autonomous driving, connectivity, software and shared mobility. They invested enormous sums, acquired technology companies, hired software engineers, launched electric vehicles and reorganized themselves around the future they believed was coming. And yet many became weaker. Poisoned asks why? Drawing on more than two dozen interviews across the automotive world, Bryan Reimer and Magnus Lindkvist examine an industry in which almost every important prediction contained some truth, yet the resulting picture of the future proved profoundly misleading. Electric vehicles arrived, but as part of a much larger system involving batteries, charging infrastructure, industrial policy, software and China. Cars became connected, but this changed the economics and architecture of the industry in unexpected ways. Automation advanced, but not along the neat trajectory that had been forecast. Technologies expected to reinforce one another began competing for capital, talent and management attention. The problem was not stupidity, complacency or a failure to notice change. It was incompleteness. Human beings simplify the future in predictable ways. Organizations then magnify those distortions through their structures, incentives, histories and identities. Poisoned traces how this happens and introduces five organizational poisons -- Time, Status, Identity, True Lies and the Edges -- that can turn sensible preparation for the future into a source of strategic weakness. The automobile industry provides the book's central case study, but its predicament is increasingly universal. Technology, geopolitics, capital, consumer behaviour and business models are colliding across almost every established industry. The companies most at risk may therefore be neither the ignorant nor the complacent. They may be the ones confidently preparing for a future that is real, important -- and dangerously incomplete. Poisoned offers a different way to think about disruption. The challenge is not simply to identify the next big trend. It is to see how technologies, institutions, incentives and behaviours interact; to recognise what the dominant story leaves out; and to prevent yesterday's assumptions about tomorrow from becoming today's strategy.

Why preparing for the future can destroy your business

Poisoned

The Foolproof Plan to Turn Your Idea into Income and Change Your Life

Girl, Start That Business!

What if the key to success in a world of constant change was never really grit, or persistence - but curiosity? The modern era asks us to optimise ourselves into corners and build lives that run predictably while we stall inside. And the very blueprint we've been handed for success - one of relentless specialization - is not only incomplete, but completely counterproductive to a fulfilling life.Fusing groundbreaking research, elite business insights, and thrilling studies of history's greatest polymaths, Harvard educator Dr. T. Alexander Puutio uncovers the simple truth behind resilient, fulfilling lives: they're built in loops, not ladders.From Leonardo da Vinci to Steve Jobs, the people who shape the future don't follow straight lines - they explore widely, quit strategically, and stay flexible enough to keep becoming someone new.In a world that breaks ladders as fast as you can climb them, the code of curiosity offers a powerful model for thriving in uncertainty. Exploiting a loop of exploration, feedback and reinvention, curiosity is a force that supercharges our brain's capacity to learn and innovate. Those who can harness the cycle unlock not just a serious strategic edge, but a better way to cultivate a meaningful life.A joyful book that speaks to the meaning vacuum of modern life, The Curiosity Code upends the traditional pillars of self-development. Instead, it offers a bold, practical blueprint for navigating change, reclaiming agency, and building a life that evolves as fast as the world around you.

A compassionate and research-driven guide to everyday practices that transform how we tackle change in the new world of work. As disruptive change and the rise of bots and algorithms reshape our work life, Human Mode shows the urgency—and demonstrates the power—of bringing distinctly human capabilities front and center. Based on the author’s long experience advising both global corporations and local healthcare professionals, it reveals how deploying our full humanity allows us to master crucial skills: the art of reading the room, bringing dissenting voices into the conversation, and building consensus. It shows how to become “Bricoleurs,” skillful foragers who use their complete portfolio of memories, quirks, contradictions, even private passions, to solve unprecedented challenges. And it makes the case for “competent humility” as a means of shedding the ill-timed and misguided pressure to maintain performative perfectionism. While exposing the crippling limitations of an old-fashioned “professional” mode that reduces us to interchangeable, muted cogs, Human Mode guides us toward a new work mode—one far more successful at fostering meaningful collaboration, boosting creativity, and enhancing performance, while also helping us achieve far greater life satisfaction. In other words, it brings us back to human mode. Turn Your Humanity into Your Greatest Strength: Instead of suppressing who you are, use it to your competitive advantage—building deeper connections, having stronger impact, and creating a more fulfilling professional life. Powerful Stories: Through relatable experiences, expert insights, and real-world examples, you’ll recognize yourself in these pages—and see a path forward navigating today’s evolving workplace with momentum. Find Purpose Without Sacrificing Your Well-Being: For anyone craving more meaning, balance, and mental health in their career, this book validates what you’ve been feeling—and shows you what to do next. From Stuck and Burned Out to Energized and Productive: Learn simple, practical techniques that spark “aha” moments and help you reconnect with your drive, creativity, and goals.

These are just some of the surprising truths about how money works.The Bank of England know more about the money system than most - after all, it is their job to keep it running smoothly. Now, for the first time, two of its economists take you deep into their vaults to tell you the inside story of money.They explain how ordinary banks are able to create money from scratch, and what stops that descending into chaos. They explore what causes inflation and why one country tried to solve rising prices by asking its citizens to cut all banknotes in half.

And they reveal what goes on inside the Bank of England during a banking crisis, and why it means your money is safer now than ever before.Along the way, they explore how money is changing today - and what new technologies like crypto mean for its future. The result is a lively and surprising guide to how money is supposed to work, what happens when it doesn't, and where it might be going next.

The Surprising Truth About How Money Works

Money: The Inside Story

For senior leaders whose strong record no longer settles the question being asked about them. Former global C-suite executive and executive coach Azhar Syed explains why strong performance stops being enough for senior advancement—and what changes when it does. Senior leaders are often surprised when the qualities that built their careers no longer move them forward. They deliver strong results, develop deep expertise, make important contributions, and earn support from influential people, yet they still are not chosen for broader responsibility. Syed identifies 6 familiar metrics leaders use to make the case for advancement: <ul><li>Results: “Look What I Have Delivered”</li><li>Expertise: “Look What I Know”</li><li>Personal Contribution: “Look What I Do”</li><li>Judgment: “Look How Right I Am”</li><li>Sponsorship: “Look Who Backs Me”</li><li>Reputation: “Look How I Have Changed”</li></ul> Each metric reflects a real way of creating value. But none, by itself, fully answers the question senior decision-makers are trying to resolve: Can this leader be trusted with greater risk, broader consequences, and decisions that affect the whole organization? Syed explains why becoming indispensable can keep a leader tied to a current role, why being right does not establish judgment at a wider radius unless others can test and carry the decision, why a powerful sponsor cannot make an appointment defensible on the leader’s behalf, and why genuine change may go unnoticed by the people whose expectations matter. Readers will learn what broader responsibility asks of them, what their record currently establishes, what decision-makers may reasonably infer, and how to distinguish between a gap they can address and a barrier embedded in the organization. Clear and candid, this book helps senior leaders understand why their established evidence may no longer settle the next decision—and what their record needs to establish before others can confidently trust them with more.

Start-Up Confessions is the hilarious and unashamedly frank story of the founding and funding of one of the UK's most successful start-ups. Opening up about both ambition and frequent failure, co-founder and serial entrepreneur Gauthier van Malderen argues that progress in start-ups is in moving from one failure to the next as fast and as cheaply as possible 'learning fast enough not to repeat the truly expensive mistakes'. But this story of a company's growth is also an accessible and practical guide to founding and running your own business. It offers essential advice on fundraising and pitching to investors and hiring key staff, shows how to manage status, salaries and expectations as you move from a few people in a room to a thriving business. And it shows you how to scale the structure, how to work with the board and how to establish a thriving company culture without losing your soul.

How the social organization of Europe and China shaped their divergent economic and political trajectories over the past millennium In the eleventh century, when Europe was still backward and poor, China was a rich and sophisticated civilization. Yet Europe became the birthplace of democracy and the Industrial Revolution, driving the Great Enrichment, while China stagnated until the end of the twentieth century and was always ruled by autocracies. Two Paths to Prosperity traces the emergence of two very different social organizations in premodern China and Europe--the clan and the corporation--showing how they were key factors in the economic and political divergence of these two great civilizations. In this landmark book, three leading economists offer a bold new account of why Europe and China evolved along such different trajectories. In the early Middle Ages, public goods like risk sharing, religious worship, education, and conflict resolution were provided by nonstate organizations in both societies. China increasingly relied on kin-based cooperation within clans, while weaker kinship ties in Europe gave rise to corporations such as guilds, universities, and self-governing towns. Despite performing similar functions, clans and corporations were built on very different principles--with lasting consequences until today. Providing a novel answer to a fundamental question in economic and political history, Two Paths to Prosperity shows how extended kinship in Chinese society facilitated the consolidation of autocracy and hindered innovation and economic development, and how corporations in Europe influenced emerging state institutions and set the stage for the Industrial Revolution.

Viele Experten, Berater und Coaches verfügen über fundiertes Fachwissen und wertvolle Leistungen, bleiben jedoch hinter ihren Möglichkeiten zurück. Nicht mangelnde Qualität ist das Problem, sondern fehlende Klarheit in Positionierung, Struktur und Sichtbarkeit.

Das Pole-Position-System beschreibt einen ganzheitlichen Ansatz, mit dem sich Expertise gezielt in eine klare Marktposition überführen lässt. Es verbindet strategische Positionierung, unternehmerisches Fundament und sichtbare Umsetzung zu einem funktionierenden Gesamtsystem.

Auf Basis langjähriger unternehmerischer Erfahrung sowie der Arbeit mit tausenden Experten zeigt dieses Modell, wie eine präzise Botschaft entsteht, wie Vertrauen aufgebaut wird und wie daraus eine belastbare, nachfrageorientierte Marktpräsenz wächst. Der Fokus liegt dabei nicht auf kurzfristigen Taktiken, sondern auf einem klaren, übertragbaren System, das individuell anwendbar ist.

Das Buch richtet sich an alle, die ihr Business nicht dem Zufall überlassen wollen, sondern eine fundierte Grundlage für Sichtbarkeit, Positionierung und wirtschaftlichen Erfolg schaffen möchten.
