Succeeding in the Boys' Club

Real Estate Rebel

'An excellent look at what Palantir does, as well as a fascinating insight into the mind of its eccentric chief executive' TelegraphPalantir Technologies is the most interesting company in the world -&nbsp;and the most controversial.&nbsp;Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the U.S. government in the war on terrorism - an early investor was the CIA - Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the U.S. military, the National Health Service in England, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to healthcare to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the twenty-first century.&nbsp;Its billionaire CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he's a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir's work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp's close friend and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel.&nbsp;In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger is the first to tell the story of Alex Karp and Palantir from the beginning. Steinberger offers new biographical details and a rich psychological portrait of the man leading one of the world's most secretive companies. Full of revelations, this is an urgent and insightful book about technological power, the surveillance state and the future we all face.

Alex Karp, Palantir and the Rise of the Surveillance State

The Philosopher in the Valley

From the long-tenured head Goldman Sachs - an institution legendary for its culture of success - comes a candid memoir of global leadership in an age of extreme turbulence. 'Lloyd Blankfein is scary smart about people, markets, and life generally. His 10,000 Small Businesses idea proved to be a huge winner, and I personally witnessed the time and effort he devoted to its success. During the 2008-2009 financial crisis, Lloyd acted decisively, and he tells the story of what happened with unique insights.' WARREN BUFFETT 'Lloyd Blankfein has always been a straight shooter, but his journey from public housing to the heights of Wall Street wasn't a straight line. Streetwise is packed with important lessons about leadership, risk-taking, decision-making, and giving back.' MICHAEL BLOOMBERG When Lloyd Blankfein was attacked as a Wall Street fat cat, he had to smile, thinking of his precarious childhood in the notorious public housing projects of East New York, Brooklyn, and attending a high school so chaotic he didn't feel safe leaving class to go to the bathroom in his time there. Harvard University was a total moonshot, and his outsider status never wore off, there or at Harvard Law. When he struck people as street-y, it wasn't Wall Street they were thinking of. But if the chip never quite left Blankfein's shoulder, neither did a wry, resilient spirit and a lucid, democratic intelligence that saw through airs and found talent and ideas in unlikely places. Streetwise is a delightfully honest, sharp and often very funny reckoning with Blankfein's education - in finance, human nature and the workings of the world. It abounds with lessons about leading teams of brilliant, aggressive, competitive people and harmonising them around shared goals; changing when times are hard and when they're good; managing risk; and knowing a crisis is at hand before it swamps you so you can guide your team to the further shore. Blankfein is famed for his calm hand on Goldman Sachs's tiller during the global financial crisis, and that story is told in full here, among many other decisive episodes. A powerful blueprint for the wise stewardship of a cause that is larger than yourself, Streetwise will inspire and inform readers throughout the global business community and beyond.

Jeffrey Epstein: Asquerosamente Rico

Sei interessant!Wir jagen dem Glück hinterher. Wir suchen nach Sinn. Und doch bleibt oft das Gefühl, dass etwas fehlt. Was, wenn es eine dritte Dimension des guten Lebens gäbe - eine, von der kaum jemand spricht? Die Psychologie nennt sie psychologische Reichhaltigkeit. Ulrich Hoffmann nennt sie das interessante Leben. Er, der mit 40 noch ein Philosophiestudium begann und mit 50 den Master machte, nimmt diese Erkenntnisse zum Ausgangspunkt einer klugen, sehr persönlichen Erkundung. Ein erfülltes Leben braucht mehr als Wohlgefühl und gute Taten: das Unerwartete, das Umweghafte, das Unperfekte - und den Mut, sich von ihm verändern zu lassen.

Die Kunst, ein interessantes Leben zu führen

San Diego Rising is the definitive biography of a man whose character was as unyielding as the stone he quarried. Henry G. Fenton's story began on the windswept Iowa prairie with a dying father's mandate to his six-year-old son: "Take care of your mother and sisters." That single promise propelled Fenton through a brief stay in a San Francisco orphanage to the rugged San Pasqual Valley, where he herded hogs while barefoot and learned survival from Kumeyaay mentors.From mule skinner to industrial titan, Fenton outworked his rivals to supply the rock, sand, and gravel that paved modern San Diego. Yet, his legacy transcends the concrete foundations of the city. He was a preservationist ahead of his time, whose insight and deep historical convictions led him to quietly reserve key acreages for future generations of Californians. Some of those locations included Mission Bay, the San Pasqual Valley, and the land that would become the Safari Park.Drawing from a treasure trove of century-old artifacts in a privately held archive, Sandra E. Bonura uncovers a visionary who turned personal grief into public joy through his legendary "Old-Timers" picnics.San Diego Rising is more than a rags-to-riches tale. It is the portrait of a boy who never broke his word and a man who built a city with his heart.

Christine Lagarde is a woman of firsts: first female head of the IMF, first female President of the ECB - and all without a classic career path through the world of finance. In her first autobiography, she recounts her rise, her successes and setbacks, and her fight against prejudice. It sheds light on the great crises of the global economy, her courageous decisions, and her distinctive perspective on power, emancipation, and change. Complemented by the voices of her most important companions, the result is a multifaceted portrait of a woman who breaks boundaries and consistently challenges the status quo.

An acclaimed New York Times Magazine writer brings us into the world of the controversial technology firm Palantir and its very colorful and outspoken CEO, Alex Karp, tracing the ascent of Big Data, the rise of surveillance technology, and the shifting global balance of power in the 21st century. Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends, and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the US government in the war on terrorism—an early investor was the CIA—Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the US military, dozens of federal agencies, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the 21st century. Its CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he’s a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir’s work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp’s close friend and Palantir cofounder Peter Thiel. In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger explores the world of Alex Karp, Palantir, and the future that they are leading us toward. It is an urgent and illuminating work about one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and powerful companies, whose technology is at the leading edge of the surveillance state.
