K Is for Kidlit

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.

How to Build Teams Worth Believing In

Relentless Positivity

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!

For decades, American companies helped set the pace of LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion. That centre of leadership has become less dependable as political pressure, legal uncertainty and corporate caution reshape business. Far beyond this corporate reversal, queer people worldwide face hate speech, online abuse and physical violence. Yet the global response is not simply retreat.The Rainbow Momentum follows the people and organizations that keep change moving: business leaders, employees, investors and advocates, alongside specialized civil-society groups connecting companies and queer communities. Across Europe, Asia and elsewhere, including Canada, these actors work within different cultures, laws and markets - and different understandings of individual rights, social responsibility and community. They show how locally adapted inclusion can deepen belonging, earn trust, attract talent, foster innovation and build economic resilience. They create new centres of influence and power. Drawing on interviews and international research, Jens Schadendorf shows how progress continues to take root, survives disruption and travels in several directions. The book concludes with twelve principles for action. Its argument is realistic but hopeful: when LGBTQ+ people and their allies turn experience into institutions, share knowledge and connect local initiatives, leadership multiplies - and they continue to shape tomorrow's economy.

Why Big Labor moved to the right— and the fight ahead for the left to win back America’s working class Unions helped construct the American middle class, defeat Jim Crow, and advance progressive rights, but in Trump’s America, the labor movement is changing. In Big Labor's Big Shift, journalist Nathan Bomey explores how Big Labor and the working class are no longer an automatic ally of the American left. Fueled by decades of economic decline, political disillusionment, and cultural disenfranchisement, new politically nebulous and economically populist leaders in the movement are building a powerful new movement based on class warfare that prizes wage and benefit gains over traditional progressive priorities. Through original reporting and first-hand interviews, Bomey traces key events that have led to this political shift. Bomey reveals: -At the Teamsters, president Sean O’Brien is cozying up to Donald Trump and blasting Democrats as tools of big business, even showing up at the Republican National Convention to deliver his message. -At the United Auto Workers, president Shawn Fain is seizing an opportunity to break the free trade consensus in Washington. The devout Christian, who wields religious rhetoric from the stump, is aligning with the Trump White House on tariffs and blasting Democrats for aggressively pursuing electric vehicles to fight climate change. Bomey shows how the two interconnected phenomena represent a massive political realignment—not just along cultural and nationalism lines, but of the working class itself away from its historic roots in the Democratic party. Urgent and compelling, Big Labor's Big Shift encapsulates the fight for the soul of the union movement.

Mastering the Invisible Shifts That Shape Your Career

The Five Stages of Career Growth

For fans of Doughnut Economics, The Trading Game and The Big Short, How to Tame Your Vampire Squid is an insightful and irreverent account of how our economic system got here, why it isn't working as it should - and how we could tame it. Meet the vampire squid: a powerful, ingenious creature with one unfortunate habit - it never knows when it has enough. For the past forty years, one idea has come to dominate the way we do business: maximize profit. The result is a system - our insatiable squid - programmed to keep extracting, expanding and chasing ever greater returns, even when the consequences work against the people it was meant to serve. But what if capitalism itself isn't the problem? What if the problem is what we've trained it to do? Drawing on a lifetime in business - from witnessing the transformation of Cadbury in the 1990s to building the much-loved food brand COOK and navigating the chaos of the 2008 financial crisis - James Perry tells the story of modern capitalism from the inside, combining colourful characters and eye-opening encounters to reveal how the pursuit of short-term financial gains came to dominate the way we do business. Along the way, he makes sense of the forces shaping our everyday lives, such as banking, private equity, inequality and the changing role of business. And he introduces us to the people already proving there is another way to do things. This isn't an argument for tearing capitalism down. Enterprise remains one of humanity's most powerful tools. The vampire squid is simply doing what we've taught it to do - which means we can teach it something different.

Why Capitalism Has Gone Rogue – and What To Do About It

How to Tame Your Vampire Squid

What if companies do not fail because they ignore the future, but because they prepare for it? Business history is usually told through reassuring stories about complacency. Kodak failed to understand digital photography. Nokia missed the smartphone. Detroit underestimated electric vehicles. The lesson appears obvious: pay attention, embrace change and invest early. There is only one problem. The story is often wrong. The global automobile industry did not ignore the future. For more than a decade, its leaders talked incessantly about electrification, autonomous driving, connectivity, software and shared mobility. They invested enormous sums, acquired technology companies, hired software engineers, launched electric vehicles and reorganized themselves around the future they believed was coming. And yet many became weaker. Poisoned asks why? Drawing on more than two dozen interviews across the automotive world, Bryan Reimer and Magnus Lindkvist examine an industry in which almost every important prediction contained some truth, yet the resulting picture of the future proved profoundly misleading. Electric vehicles arrived, but as part of a much larger system involving batteries, charging infrastructure, industrial policy, software and China. Cars became connected, but this changed the economics and architecture of the industry in unexpected ways. Automation advanced, but not along the neat trajectory that had been forecast. Technologies expected to reinforce one another began competing for capital, talent and management attention. The problem was not stupidity, complacency or a failure to notice change. It was incompleteness. Human beings simplify the future in predictable ways. Organizations then magnify those distortions through their structures, incentives, histories and identities. Poisoned traces how this happens and introduces five organizational poisons -- Time, Status, Identity, True Lies and the Edges -- that can turn sensible preparation for the future into a source of strategic weakness. The automobile industry provides the book's central case study, but its predicament is increasingly universal. Technology, geopolitics, capital, consumer behaviour and business models are colliding across almost every established industry. The companies most at risk may therefore be neither the ignorant nor the complacent. They may be the ones confidently preparing for a future that is real, important -- and dangerously incomplete. Poisoned offers a different way to think about disruption. The challenge is not simply to identify the next big trend. It is to see how technologies, institutions, incentives and behaviours interact; to recognise what the dominant story leaves out; and to prevent yesterday's assumptions about tomorrow from becoming today's strategy.

Why preparing for the future can destroy your business

Poisoned

The need for resilience at organisational, department and individual level has never been greater. Geopolitical conflict, climate change, supply chain disruption and political instability are just a handful of the risks that leaders must mitigate to ensure stable business operation and optimum effectiveness. Project resilience refers to the ability of a project or initiative to anticipate, adapt and recover from unexpected challenges, disruptions or uncertainties. It involves the capacity to withstand shocks, maintain functionality in the face of adversity, and quickly recover to a stable state. Resilient projects underpin resilient organisations; a resilient organisation produces sustainable competitive advantage. This book offers a structured framework - the Project Resilience Maturity Model - to assess and enhance resilience in organisations. The authors begin by considering different approaches to project resilience, and by identifying potential tensions therein. In the second part, methods of sustaining project resilience are examined, focusing on the perspective of the project manager, personal responsibility and leadership. The latter part of the textbook provides practical tools and applications to assess and enhance project resilience. Throughout, the authors employ a pedagogical framework designed to ensure maximum effectiveness for students and practitioners. Chapters are organised to reflect the evolution of project resilience maturity and concepts are introduced in a sequential order that builds on what has come before, with Key Takeaways summarising each chapter's most critical points. Fictional case studies illustrate how topics can be implemented in a project management setting, while Key and Dormant Tensions highlight potential blind spots. Demystifying complex topics without sacrificing scholarly rigour, Project Resilience provides you with a strategic approach to ensuring projects are well-equipped to withstand uncertainties and adapt to dynamic conditions. It is the perfect textbook to support advanced Project Management and Organisational Resilience courses, and to provide practical methods for leading responsible organisations.
