Lessons on life and business you are guaranteed to find nowhere else.The true, larger-than-life story of George "Boe" Boedecker, his fire to succeed, his "don't just break the rules but make up new ones" attitude, his partners, his light bulb moment, the ridiculous origin story (of both shoe and man), and then the explosion (in more ways than one) of Crocs.This is a modern-day 'Big Fish' tale of lovers and haters, rivals and thieves, the hard partying, the strongest man in the world and the Mexican police, the fender bender with Fleetwood Mac and the enterprising way into the hearts of the San Francisco 49ers, the little boy lost and Superman, the millions made and just given away, and how it nearly destroyed him.Boe helped create the clunkiest - many would say ugliest - looking shoe in the world, which also became the best-selling non-sneaker brand on the planet. Everyone considered it a fad when he went public almost two decades ago - and it's bigger now than it's ever been, with billions and billions on feet in every corner of the world. More hated, more loved, never out of fashion. Ugly is beautiful... We're not talking about the shoe anymore.In Croc, Boe tells his wild story through lessons on life and leadership that you are guaranteed not to find anywhere else. Strap in because it's going to be a crazy ride, and you may be surprised at what you learn in the end. Funny, twisted, touching, exuberant. Sample lessons include: <ul><li>Do Not Listen to Anyone</li><li>When to Not Follow the Rules</li><li>Avoid Bosses</li><li>You Never Know When Opportunity Will Present Itself</li><li>If You Threaten to Kill Your Brother-in-Law, Do Not Provide Time and Place.</li><li>Ugly is Beautiful </li></ul>

Lessons on life and business you are guaranteed to find nowhere else.

How I Invented the World’s Most Popular Shoe, Became a Massive Success, and Nearly Destroyed Myself in 15 Easy Lessons

Wandel ohne Richtung - Wenn Veränderung an Haltung scheitert

Dieses Buch ist ein Plädoyer für eine neue Art des Wandels - jenseits von Projekten, Methoden und Change-Management-Floskeln. Es zeigt, warum Veränderung so oft scheitert, wenn Angst, Machtspiele und Kontrolle das Steuer übernehmen - und wie sie gelingt, wenn Menschen, Haltung und Bewusstsein in den Mittelpunkt rücken.

Nicole Dildei nimmt dich mit hinter die Kulissen echter Veränderungsprozesse. Sie beschreibt, wie Angst und Überforderung Organisationen lähmen, warum Widerstand kein Feind, sondern ein Signal ist, und wie Führung durch Vertrauen und emotionale Reife entsteht.

"Wandel ohne Richtung" verbindet persönliche Erfahrungen, Managementwissen und tiefes psychologisches Verständnis zu einem ehrlichen, klaren und inspirierenden Werk über Transformation. Es richtet sich an Führungskräfte, Entscheider und Menschen, die spüren, dass Wandel nicht gemanagt, sondern verkörpert werden muss.

Denn echte Veränderung entsteht nicht durch Strategien - sondern durch Haltung, Präsenz und den Mut, das Unbekannte bewusst zu betreten.

Zwischen Chaos, Ego und echter Transformation

Wandel ohne Richtung - Wenn Veränderung an Haltung scheitert

A Creative and Pragmatic Approach to Taking Risks

Almost Reckless

North Korea is perhaps the most intriguing, infamous and enigmatic nation of our modern world. Yet how many of us know its full history, and how it came to be? How can we understand such a strange, isolated state? This new edition seeks to provide some answers to these questions. Starting with its origins in the colonial period, Michael J Seth masterfully traces how North Korea transformed itself from a Soviet-style socialist state to the ultra-nationalist, dynastic dictatorship of the 21st century. Born from 20th century Korea's struggles to regain autonomy and achieve modernization, this book follows the story of how a single Korea with a shared ethnic and cultural heritage, evolved into radically different societies. From the birth of the DPRK, through economic collapse, famine and failed revolution, it illuminates North Korea's journey with an engaging understanding of the political, ideological, economic and social forces at play. This edition has been updated to examine recent developments in Korean history, up until 2025, and has analysed over sixty new publications from leading academics. It also incorporates the experiences of prominent North Korean women and analyses the everyday life of ordinary North Koreans, as well as the country's leaders. Seth also uses his expertise to analyse and put more emphasis on Inter-Korean relations Following the evolution of this uncommon nation, North Korea: A History uses the past to answer questions about the present, and above all shows North Korea as a society with a hard-working, long-suffering population who have made great sacrifices in the hopes for a better future. North Korea: A History is also available in audiobook format from audiobook retailers.

The extractive economy is failing. The regenerative economy is being built. This is the definitive field manual for entrepreneurs, investors, and changemakers ready to stop tinkering with a broken system—and start building what replaces it. When Laurie Lane-Zucker coined the term impact entrepreneur in 2011, he named an emerging movement. Fifteen years later, that movement has reached a breakthrough. The Impact Entrepreneur Breakthrough maps how to join it. Part manifesto and part operating manual, this book shows how enterprises, ownership, capital, markets, security, and culture must transform together—and provides practical tools to begin immediately. Drawing on three decades at the forefront of impact investing and regenerative economics, Lane-Zucker introduces powerful new frameworks, including the Five Pillars of Real Security, the Prevention Dividend, and Defense as a Service—reimagining protection as shared resilience rather than fortified isolation. You’ll learn to <ul><li>design enterprises that heal communities and ecosystems;&nbsp;</li><li>structure ownership so mission survives growth and succession;&nbsp;</li><li>deploy capital for long-term resilience;&nbsp;</li><li>rethink risk through prevention and collaboration;&nbsp;and</li><li>translate regenerative values into concrete strategies and decisions.</li></ul> Each chapter moves from analysis to action, with real-world applications from practitioners already building the Impact Economy. The breakthrough is happening now. The question is whether you’ll participate.

The Chemical Industry under the 4th Industrial Revolution

Great ideas are all around us, waiting to be discovered. Here's how to find them. We're used to imagining creativity as a lightbulb moment - sudden, mysterious, reserved for the gifted few. But what if ideas aren't conjured from thin air? What if they're discovered - more like precious artifacts that we unearth and refine? In How Great Ideas Happen, cognitive scientist George Newman draws on cutting-edge research to show that creativity isn't magic, it's method. The most successful innovators don't wait to be struck by brilliance; their creative process is more like archeology. As keen-eyed explorers, they scan the terrain, dig with intention, and, with a little luck, find gold. With vivid examples from the arts, science, and business, Newman shows how creativity often comes from discovering what was already there. For example, how Jackson Pollock tapped into deep patterns in nature to create his famous "drip" paintings; how Korean filmmakers created an entirely new genre by closely studying foreign films; or, how Paul Simon made Graceland by carefully sifting through previously recorded material for what he could take away. By revealing the hidden steps behind breakthrough success, How Great Ideas Happen uncovers a repeatable method that anyone can follow, reframing creativity not as a rare gift, but as a universal capacity waiting to be unlocked through exploration. The creative process is an adventure of ideas - this book is your guide.
