Corbyn J: WARNING! THE COST OF AMBITION

WARNING! THE COST OF AMBITION

Surviving Business, Banks & Betrayal

Four-time World Series champion and Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts pulls back the curtain on one of the most quietly powerful leadership philosophies in professional sports: an unshakable belief in the power of optimism, accountability, and human connection. Baseball is a game of failure, where even the best players succeed three times out of ten. For Roberts, that statistic represents an opportunity. In Relentless Positivity, he reveals how leading through uncertainty, pressure, and loss has taught him the secret to long-term success: meeting people where they are, embracing the mess, and having the courage to show a relentless, almost irrational positivity that helps your team step into its full potential. Drawing on stories from the clubhouse and the world stage—from his iconic stolen base with the 2004 Red Sox to a decade of managing the Dodgers to World Series glory—Roberts shares cornerstone principles that have shaped his approach to leadership and life, including: <ul><li>Be the thermostat, not the thermometer: How to bring the energy your team needs instead of simply reacting to the mood around you. </li><li>Clarity before commitment: Being candid about expectations creates stronger buy-in than getting someone to say yes without understanding what’s required of them.</li><li>Everyone has to want the ball: How to prepare like anyone on the team can be the one who steps up when it matters most.</li><li>Hope changes everything: You can’t always change your circumstances, but you can train yourself to recognize the opportunity that’s still available. </li></ul> Blending stories from a championship locker room with the insights of a master motivator, Roberts delivers a field-tested guide for anyone leading through complexity, whether in the stadium, in the conference room, or at home. Written for a time when our models for leadership are rapidly evolving, Relentless Positivity is a timely manifesto for building strong teams, resilient cultures, and sustaining personal success in any field.

Four-time World Series Champion and Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts pulls back the curtain on one of the most quietly powerful leadership philosophies in professional sports: an unshakable belief in the power of optimism, accountability, and human connection. Baseball is a game of failure, where even the best players succeed three times out of ten. For Roberts, that statistic represents an opportunity. In Relentless Positivity, he reveals how leading through uncertainty, pressure, and loss has taught him the secret to long-term success: meeting people where they are, embracing the mess, and still having the courage to show a relentless, almost irrational positivity that helps your team step into its full potential. Drawing on stories from the clubhouse and the world stage—from his iconic stolen base with the 2004 Red Sox to a decade of managing the Dodgers to World Series glory—Roberts shows how leaders can transform setbacks into strength and criticism into motivation. Along the way, he shares nine cornerstone principles that have shaped his approach to leadership and life, including: <ul><li>Meet Once: Communicate clearly the first time to build trust and avoid confusion.</li><li>Put Down the Sword: Choose connection over conflict.</li><li>The Game Will Honor You: Focus on doing the little things right.</li><li>Find the Good: Lead with optimism, even when the scoreboard says otherwise.</li></ul> Blending stories from a championship locker room with the insights of a master motivator, Roberts delivers a field-tested guide for anyone leading through complexity, whether in the stadium, in the conference room, or at home. Written for a time when our models for leadership are rapidly evolving—in sports and beyond—Relentless Positivity is a timely manifesto for building strong teams, resilient cultures, and sustaining personal success in any field.

Algorithmic Management: Artificial Intelligence and the Transformation of Organizations is the first comprehensive textbook designed to prepare management students to engage critically and responsibly with artificial intelligence in organizations. Bringing together classical management theory, contemporary AI applications, and systematic power analysis, the book equips future managers to both harness AI's potential and confront its risks.Structured in three parts, the book begins with foundational frameworks-socio-technical systems theory, technology and society perspectives, and core management theories reinterpreted for the AI era. It then examines applications across all major management functions-Marketing, HR, Finance, Operations, Supply Chain, and Strategy-using over 30 real-world case studies drawn from different industries, parts of the world, and types of organizations from multinational corporations to nonprofits and social ventures. The final section addresses organizational design, leadership, governance, and the future of algorithmic organizations. Throughout, pedagogical features-learning objectives, vignettes, discussion questions, toolkits, and ethical dilemmas-make the book classroom-ready and adaptable across MBA, undergraduate, and executive education settings. The text advances an approach of pragmatic criticality: AI is neither celebrated uncritically nor rejected outright but treated as a socio-technical phenomenon requiring managerial judgment, ethical reflection, and contextual awareness.By bridging management theory, functional practice, and critical perspectives, this book fills a critical market gap and is positioned to become the definitive teaching resource on AI and management for business education worldwide.

Practical Rules for Meetings and Decisions

Democratic Rules of Order, 11th Edition

A lesson-packed success story for the twenty-first century, from a ninth-generation Kentuckian who imported the Silicon Valley playbook to the heartland, revealing how the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied anywhere, and even to our most stubborn industries. In his case: trash. When Nate Morris decided to build a business, he wasn’t looking to disrupt—he was looking for a problem to solve. Morris believed that the bigger the problem, the more the market would reward him for solving it. And one of the biggest problems, he came to believe, was one that every person, business, and community dealt with on a daily basis, but which was often overlooked: waste. American Trash is the moving story of how a ninth-generation Kentuckian—a boy who grew up being called “white trash”—applied the innovative thinking we associate with Silicon Valley startups to the ancient problem of waste. Raised on the scrappy resourcefulness of his grandfather, president of their local autoworkers’ union, Morris built Rubicon, a waste management company powered by digital technology. Unlike the bloated industry titans of yesterday, Rubicon was asset light: It wouldn’t own landfills, so it would be free of the perverse incentive to fill the land with chemical-laden trash, and it wouldn’t own trucks, so it would support “mom and pop” hauler businesses. Most important, it would be based in Georgia and Kentucky, thousands of miles from the near-sighted culture of Silicon Valley. In telling his story, Morris shows how he combined the great tradition of American entrepreneurship with the lessons of the digital economy—and did it far from the coastal bastions of the technology elite. The result is a blueprint for those seeking to tackle our biggest challenges with creative, free-market solutions.

Turning Former Employees into Competitive Assets

The Alumni Advantage

Why do so many young adults struggle financially despite doing everything they're told? Why does working toward financial freedom feel like an impossible game?The problem isn't simply a lack of financial literacy. Too many people are never taught how the real world of money works, leaving them to navigate a system they don't fully understand.In Into the Moneyverse, Lionel Lee breaks down the hidden systems shaping our financial lives and exposes the mechanics of money, wealth-building, and financial power. Forget boring jargon and impossible advice. This is personal finance explained the way it should have been from the start: clear, practical, and actually engaging to read.Blending storytelling with real economics, behavioral psychology, and street-level financial realities, Lee explores how money really moves--and why so many people feel stuck even when they're working harder than ever. Complex financial concepts become practical lessons readers can use to better understand their money, build long-term financial security, and work toward greater independence in today's changing economy.Into the Moneyverse is a reality check, blueprint, and map for anyone who has ever felt that the money game was rigged--and wants to understand the system well enough to navigate it with their eyes open.

The Real World of Money and Why Financial Literacy Alone Won't Save You

Into the Moneyverse

Too many leaders are burning out--and taking their teams with them. Despite good intentions, many organizations still push harder, demand more, and equate long hours with high performance. The result? Talented people walk away from work they once loved, while leaders feel stuck between delivering results at any cost or failing altogether. Longevity Leadership challenges that paradigm. Drawing on neuroscience, behavioral science, and years of experience in organizational change, Jessica Billiet offers a new model for leadership--one that recognizes performance and well-being are not in conflict but deeply connected. When leaders understand how the brain responds to stress, motivation, and habit, they can create environments where people are energized, innovative, and resilient--without sacrificing results. This book explores the small, often overlooked choices leaders make every day: how they respond to pressure, how they communicate during uncertainty, and how they shape team habits and rhythms. Readers will learn practical, science-backed strategies for reducing burnout, leading through resistance, and building sustainable performance across their teams and organizations. At its core, Longevity Leadership is a call for systemic change. It's about equipping leaders at every level with tools to achieve results without destroying the people who deliver them. Inspiring and deeply practical, this book shows that when leaders honor both performance and mental health, everyone wins.

Longevity Leadership: Building Sustainable Performance Through Science-Backed Strategies

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

The Truth About the Load Middle Managers Carry
Middle managers are the backbone of the organization, the drivers of culture, and the key to team performance. And yet, no one’s asking them how they’re doing.
The Leadership Load is written from the vantage point of managers themselves—in their language, for their survival. &nbsp;Author Karol Figueroa has infused the narrative with real stories from managers she has helped find their way back to clarity, agency, and themselves. She knows the terrain personally because she has lived the burnout herself and watched too many talented people disappear into their roles.
The Leadership Load is a mirror and a guide for the managers carrying it all—the ones who keep getting sent to another training or offered a mindfulness app when what they need is someone to say: “We see you. Here’s how to make it through without losing yourself.”
The book moves through three parts:
<ul>
<li>Seeing It. Understand the invisible emotional and structural burdens of the middle management role and why the impossible position you’re in isn’t a personal failure.</li>
<li>Surviving It. Make the mental shifts needed to stay grounded and clear-headed in a system not built for sustainability.</li>
<li>Shifting It. Use practical tools, honest reflection, and a road map to help you manage up, down, and across while maintaining your integrity and your energy.</li>
</ul>
No more suffering in silence. Come away ready to lead differently and become the manager you always imagined you could be.
