Wealth 101

Impacting 2 Generations

In collaboration with JVL Media—a captivating exploration of why many high-performing Black business leaders attribute their transformational leadership qualities to their experiences growing up in the Black Church and how we can foster these skills in younger generations despite waning church attendance.The Black church in the U.S. has long been a “one-stop shop” for developing Black leaders, teaching them many of the qualities required to lead effectively in today’s ultra-competitive, digital, and swiftly transforming corporate world. Many high-performing Black leaders benefited from their experiences growing up in this cultural institution steeped in rich history.Merging cultural study with applied neuroscience and tenets of positive psychology, L. Michelle Smith dissect how these qualities are demonstrated by leaders across industries, from resiliency to their sense of undeniable purpose, their ability to build community and collaborative environments, the delivery and language of their speaking style to their unique leadership flair. She reveals how this historic institution has served as a timeless wellspring of leadership development, empowerment, and cultural preservation and ultimately, is Black leaders’ “secret sauce.”Call and Response also explores whether the Black Church will be able to continue to ingrain these skills in future generations. Smith examines how cultural shifts have resulted in a decline in church attendance, how online attendance has risen since the Covid pandemic, and finally, how Black leaders may—or may not—be passing these traditions down to their children.

ASAP: As SLOW as Possible

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.

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.

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.

Are you paying more taxes than you have to? The IRS is not going to tell you about a deduction you failed to take, and your accountant is not likely to take the time to ask you about every deduction you’re entitled to. It’s up to you. The savings can be tremendous.

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.

Human Mode

'Michael Auerbach has one of the most original minds I've ever encountered . . . This is a dazzling and entertaining book . . . But it is also an urgent warning' PATRICK RADDEN KEEFE, author of Empire of Pain A brilliant exploration of the phenomenon of prediction markets that asks: what happens when democracy becomes another commodity? Prediction markets are sweeping the world, fundamentally changing the nature of gambling - and the very ways in which we attempt to divine the future. Posed as binary 'Yes/No' questions about future events, prediction markets allow any difference of opinion - whether on pop culture or politics, wars or assassinations - to be financialised. A regulatory minefield with moral implications that divide nations, governments and bettors, they have proved as effective at accurately predicting the timing of missile strikes as they have at calling the outcomes of elections.But are these markets really a new phenomenon? And what does it mean when those tasked with safeguarding democracy hold financial stakes in its volatility?From Renaissance Rome, where merchants wagered on papal conclaves, through nineteenth-century London's wartime coffee house gossip, to the Pentagon's ill-fated terrorism futures exchange and blockchain-based betting on Polymarket today, The Big Bet tells the gripping five-hundred-year story of a permissive regime that no one designed and no one voted for.Drawing on deep expertise, Michael Auerbach examines how these markets are changing our world, and what they mean for the future where democracy becomes just another commodity to be priced and traded. Because prediction markets are not an anomaly - they are the logical endpoint of a society that has applied market capitalism to every aspect of life. And in a world where everything is a wager and nothing is off limits, knowing where the chips will fall matters more than ever.

How Shared Strategy Transforms Results at Every Level

The SOAR Effect

An open invitation to changemakers, educators, conscious consumers, and anyone interested in the creative economy to lean into this grassroots global community and help drive systems change. We live in an age where every convenience is a finger tap away, but historically marginalized communities and ecosystems are paying the price of unconscious consumption. Our current economic practices contribute to environmental damage, social injustice, and declining public trust. The solution, argues Stacey Edgar, social entrepreneur and executive director of the International Folk Art Market, is the artisan economy. In contrast to the profit-at-all-costs model of the mainstream economy, the artisan approach to production and consumption encourages creativity, preserves culture, and cultivates connection. In Artisan Economics, Edgar proposes a shift toward this artisan-centric model that prioritizes creativity, dignity, and community. Drawing on stories and research from around the world, she outlines eight core principles of the artisan economy—purpose, creativity, dignity, resistance, community, value, sustainability, and shared prosperity. She also shares a framework, called the Taproot Model of Systems Change, on which to enact these principles by restoring a vision of the economy as a living system. Ultimately, Edgar proposes, the artisan economy is a way to reconnect consumers with makers, foster sustainable growth, and create a more equitable and human-focused global economy. To create true connections across our global economy, we need a dramatic overhaul of what it means to work and what it means to consume.
