An Evidence-Based Guide to Performance Leadership

Armstrong’s Handbook of Performance Management

Passionately Transforming Management

"What an interesting agenda for this meeting." "Sustainability is a priority for our company." "We care deeply about our customers." Let's face it: We all lie. Sometimes to save face, to get out of a scrape or to protect someone's feelings, and sometimes for more malicious reasons. Generally, however, we only expect people to lie under certain circumstances, and we expect our professional environments to be beacons of truthful and honest behaviour. Deceit, untruth and disinformation have become part and parcel of the everyday political agenda. World leaders and business magnates unabashedly lie and peddle misinformation, from climate change denialism to anti-vaccine propaganda. In Passionately Transforming Management: Lies, Professor Johan Alvehus recognizes that such things are not only going on at the grand political stage - instead arguing that the utility of lies, deception and manipulation can provide key lessons for anyone interested in leadership. The author delves into differing philosophical perspectives on the morality of lying, before examining the various ways in which falsehoods find their way into our modern workplaces. Ultimately, we must begin re-assessing our professional hierarchies with a new clarity by rejecting the notion of a leader as a morally superior concept automatically deserving of adulation. We need to recognize that lies and manipulation are fundamental elements of accomplishing things in organizations. Even before working life starts, its truthfulness is dubious - who doesn't polish their CV to give a better impression? Bypassing formal structures, ensuring certain people are left out of decision processes, spreading non-factual 'visions' and lying to keep one's position safe are all essential for the accomplished manager. Passionately Transforming Management: Lies provides students, scholars and managers with a concise and provocative guide to identifying, utilising and manipulating bullshit culture.

Passionately Transforming Management: Lies

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

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 Redesign of Progress

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.

It’s Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

Breaking New Ground

The leaders who thrive over the next decade will not be the ones who compete with AI on its own terms. They will be the ones who invest deeply in the qualities that make them irreplaceable. This is The Human Brand.We are at an inflection point in the history of leadership. The qualities that used to be the bedrock of great leaders--analytical skills, deliverable speed, clear communication--can now be easily matched or outperformed by AI. So if these don't make a leader great, what does?The Human Brand argues it's the fundamentally human qualities of leadership that will make them thrive--the ability to exercise genuine judgment, build real trust, or be authentically present with another human being. Those qualities are not footnotes to leadership. They are what leadership is. That is your human brand and this book provides a clear, grounded, and practical path to building one.<ul><li>In Part 1, you'll tackle the anxiety surrounding AI head-on to better understand your value in the company when AI can do what you used to do. You'll learn what tasks can easily be tackled by AI without value loss and which you should focus on.</li><li>In Part 2, you'll learn the how to develop the four core qualities of the human brand--judgment, empathy, courage, and presence--and what makes them so important.</li><li>In Part 3, you'll translate those qualities into action, learning how to hone the art of storytelling and use your brand to build a company culture that can stand the test of time.</li><li>Finally, in Part 4, you'll learn a framework for self-development and how to leave a legacy built on your humanity.</li></ul>The Human Brand is a book for leaders who want to navigate the AI era not with anxiety, but with clarity, purpose, and a deep confidence in what makes them irreplaceable.

How Leaders Stay Relevant and Competitive in the Age of AI

The Human Brand

What it takes to sustain leadership successAt some point in every senior leader's career, the skills that built success stop being enough to sustain it. The work accumulates, the stakes rise, and the gap between performing well and breaking down narrows. Most leadership books train skills at the surface. Conditioned is about what sits underneath them.An athlete trains, competes, and recovers on a schedule with an off-season built in. Leadership has no off-season, and almost no one is conditioned for that. Allen Weaver brings more than twenty years in sport psychology, executive coaching, and Fortune 100 human resources to a consistent observation: the leaders who last are not the ones with the most refined skills, but the ones who built the conditioning that supports them.Conditioned maps that conditioning through the Peak System. Two anchors, Mental Performance (how leaders show up) and Wellness (how they sustain the ability to keep showing up), are expressed across ten dimensions of leadership readiness, each read on a simple three-state scale: Peak, Plateau, and Valley. The book closes with three disciplines for the long climb of a leadership career: Mastery, Future-Proofing, and Legacy.The stories come from boardrooms, locker rooms, and coaching environments: Mary Barra steadied General Motors in crisis, Lisa Su rebuilt AMD, and Rory McIlroy and LeBron James extended their peaks past the age when peaks are supposed to end. Weaver's own path runs from a marathon medical tent to the coaching practice it inspired. Conditioned is written for senior and mid-career leaders who have achieved success and now intend to sustain it.Peak is what can be reached. Plateau is where reliable performance lives. Valley is where the learning happens. The climb begins with conditioning.
