The Infinite Leader Balancing the Demands of Modern Business Leadership
This book
the spectacular leadership failures we have witnessed in recent history with a lack of « Explains balance between the rational and emotional as well as the spiritual and physical elements of leadership
a whole new model of adaptable leadership that aims to find balance between sometimes « Proposes paradoxical forces and influences part of the Inspire series, which offers insightful analyses of the new, VUCA world of business, « Isfrom digital transformation to the age of artificial intelligence and beyond Is written duo Chris Lewis and Pippa Malmgren, whose last co-authored book, The « LeadershipbyLab,best-selling was a double winner at the 2019 Best Business Book Awards
Description Bestselling and award-winning author duo Chris Lewis and Pippa Malmgren are calling it out. In The Infinite Leader, they argue that the spectacular leadership failures that we have witnessed in recent history, stretching across business, community life and politics, can be explained by a lack of balance. Having spent centuries perfecting processes and systems to maximize productivity and being indicted to the shrine of numbers, KPI’s and financial forecasting, we have to admit, there are very few examples of sustainable and inspirational leadership figures out there. By over-relying on the hard stuff, we have disregarded whole dimensions of values that are desperately needed when trying to engage communities of people towards a common goal. New

The Infinite Leader is a roadmap to introducing balance back into organizations. You can adapt your stance to the infinite possibilities facing you as a leader, and balance the main quadrants of the rational, emotional, spiritual and physical leader, to deliver sustainable leadership with integrity. Business is still about people - people operate across paradoxes and opposing forces, in a world that confounds these influences. Leaders need to continuously juggle and neutralize these to succeed. Be what your people need you to be and learn what they don’t teach you in business schools; remain analytical and numbers-focused when needed, but also bring your heart, person and integrity to leadership.

How can today’s business leaders keep up with seismic geopolitical and economic shifts that include Brexit, inflation and the unseating of traditional political powers, and what do these mean for their own leadership narratives? In The Leadership Lab, bestselling author Chris Lewis and superstar megatrends analyst Dr Pippa Malmgren help you lead your team through this change successfully. Covering everything from how to build a new type of leadership trust when other spheres of public power have been overturned, to robots overtaking companies and worldwide indebtedness affecting business, this book explains not only why the old rules no longer apply, but also how to blaze a trail in this new world order and be the best leader you can be. The Leadership Lab includes exclusive interviews with top executives grappling with the new world order and discusses what key global trends keep them awake at night and how they respond to them. It is a must-read for aspiring leaders and C-level executives seeking to develop a real intuition when it comes to dealing with the global currents disrupting business and how to build an empathetic, credible, stable and strong leadership path.

Description WINNER: Independent Press Award 2020 - Technology Category Blockchain is the technology behind bitcoin and other crypto-currencies. According to Santander, it could save financial institutions $15-20bn a year from 2022 onward. Most experts see an unprecedented potential, but many banks, payment processors and credit card companies fret that bitcoin entrepreneurs could cast a pall over their core business. Whatever the position of blockchain, many voices are shouting from different angles, creating a cacophony of confusion including techevangelists, anarcho-libertarians and industry experts. But while everybody in IT and banking seems to have an opinion on the blockchain, there is little systematic research, no strategic analysis. Blockchain Babel is the ultimate guide to the most disruptive technology to have entered the finance industry in recent years.

Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) are part of a new wave of immersive technologies that offer huge opportunities for businesses, across industries and regardless of their size. Most people think of AR or VR as a new development in video gaming like Pokémon GO, or an expensive marketing campaign by the Nikes of the world. The truth is, businesses of any size can put these new technologies to immediate use in areas that include training and development, customer experience and design, as well as data and information management. Reality Check dispels the common misconceptions of AR and VR, such as them being too expensive or not easily scalable, and details how business leaders can integrate them into their business to deliver more efficient, cost-sensitive and exciting business solutions. The up and coming voice of AR and VR for businesses, Jeremy Dalton, uses exclusive case studies from organizations like Lloyds Banking Group, Honeywell and IKEA to showcase the practical uses of immersive technologies. He argues businesses will see the most immediate benefits in four areas: Training, design, information and data and telepresence. Reality Check makes cutting-edge technology accessible and grounds them into the everyday workings of normal businesses. It is your one-stop non-technical guide to incredibly exciting new technologies that will deliver results.

Future Tech How to Capture Value from Disruptive Industry Trends
This book
« Debunks widely-held belief that technologies alone cause industry disruption a new, cutting-edge framework--the Four Forces--to explain how and why industry « Introduces disruption occurs business executives, policymakers and entrepreneurs understand new technologies as they « Helps emerge and anticipate what’s next « Outlines what individual employees can do to prepare themselves for the future of work Description Amazon’s Fire phone. Google Glass. Facebook Home. Quikster. New technologies alone don’t always cause industry changes. Future Tech explains how the four forces of technology, policy, business models and social dynamics work together to create industry disruption and how this understanding can help to predict what is coming next. Technology is generally viewed as the single force that disrupts markets. However, history is rife with stories of technologies that have failed to meet such hyped expectations. In Future Tech, the author reveals that true change only results from the combination the forces of science and technology, policy and regulation, new business models (i.e. sharing economy) and social dynamics (whether or not people adopt it). Whether these four forces align explains why some technologies, such as AI, blockchain, robotics, synthetic biology and 3D printing, stick and why others fail. With an understanding of these four forces, business executives and policymakers can explain what technology is likely to stick and even anticipate what is coming next.

The Heart of Transformation Build the Human Capabilities that Change Organizations for Good

« Outlines the six capabilities that organizations need to develop to achieve real transformation « Provides clear, actionable and simple tools that any organization can use to drive change efforts « Shows leaders how to embed new habits in the daily life of their organization a new standard for organizational excellence embedded in human-not technological-« Establishes capabilities Description Technology doesn’t transform organizations - people do. In an era of technological and constant change, companies are bombarded with urgent advice to become more agile, lean, and digital. Billions are spent on digital transformation efforts with the promise that these efforts will increase competitive advantage. Yet even when only 30% of these efforts succeed, this e-hard-won competitive advantage only lasts until the next disruption before the cycle repeats, causing transformation fatigue. The Heart of Transformation breaks this cycle by suggesting that the pace and complexity of change is too great and too complex to be addressed by a single change effort or transformation. The answer lies in the organization’s greatest asset-its people. In the face of complexity, it is the organization’s people and their ability to adapt and learn that are the true engine of organizational change.

Description Despite global economic conditions, companies are always looking to attract and retain the best talent. Unfortunately, almost 30% of US job seekers leave a new job within the first 30 days. Why? Many new recruiters rely too heavily on high-tech tools to attract candidates and may not have learned the fundamental relationship-building skills that help recruiters ensure that clients and candidates are a good match. High-Tech High-Touch Recruiting provides recruiters with an end-to-end process for recruiting the highest caliber talent who, after they are hired, will become engaged employees. While emphasizing the overall importance of building “high-touch” relationship-building skills, the book outlines how these can be blended successfully with “high-tech” tools such as AI-powered software applications to identify a large pool of qualified job candidates. Once you’ve identified candidates, the author cautions against the sole use of text and email communication and suggests that recruiters conduct a general interview in order to better ascertain whether a candidate is the best fit for the role.

Marketing & Communications
Global consumer behavior expert Michael R. Solomon directs marketers to move beyond their traditional categories and communicate with consumers as individuals rather than as a market segment. He explains how traditional marketing is based on the assumption of boundaries between us and them, the individual and the collective, producer and consumer, work and play, humans vs. computers, and editorial vs. commercial. He then shows how those boundaries are blurring: people identify with members of multiple subcultures; individuals seek collective advice before making a purchase; consumers no longer distinguish between purchases online or in-store; consumer generated content becomes the norm; gender identity is fluid; gamification strategies turn work into play; and identity marketing becomes more popular. Combining history, data, experience and examples, The New Chameleons is written for every marketer (or reader) who wants to offer products and services that resonate with consumers now and in the future.

Clarifying why machine-learning, AI and automation only tell one side of the story, this book will inspire you with cutting edge interviews and case studies from leading brands like Expedia, Coca Cola, McDonalds, Adobe and Google, to tap into authentic brand loyalty and human connection.

Description Create an influencer marketing strategy that benefits both brand and the influencer with this fascinating guide, rich in case studies from the biggest and the best and the small and specialist. Influencer marketing can no longer be ignored. Whether it’s broad scale celebrity endorsement, or micro-influencers with niche, highly targeted followings, influencer marketing has become a natural extension of content marketing. However, while the opportunities are vast, the very nature of influencer marketing means that a brand must relinquish control of their marketing message to allow the influencer to communicate in their natural style. This can be unnerving, and it’s therefore imperative to have a clearly defined campaign that mutually benefits and protects both the brand and the influencer.

Description Being an active, purpose-driven brand has never been more meaningful. Recent statistics prove that more than 87% of consumers would purchase a product because a company advocated for an issue they cared about, and more than two-thirds would refuse to do so if the company supported an issue contrary to their beliefs. Become a truly ‘purpose-driven’ brand that creates action, with this proven framework. We live in an age of activism - the conscious consumer is more socially aware than ever before, and this is reflected in their buying habits. Yet, activism on behalf of brands is lagging. While many claim to be ‘purpose driven’, far too often this purpose is relegated to a plaque above the CEO’s desk, and never goes any further. Or, worse, the ‘purpose’ is transparently used as a marketing ploy, but never acted upon in any real way.

Description This is a book by retailers for retailers. Authors Gareth Jude and Andrew Smith include case studies of the business operations of large, established retailers such as Walmart, Target (USA), Nike, Inditex and Lush who are thriving while their competitors in the same sector struggle. They look at how their successes contrast starkly with the struggles of discount department stores, Sears and Kmart. Some retailers have been able to adapt to the changing environment, but most struggle to innovate and continue to compete using last century tactics. Throughout this book the authors demonstrate that the difference between success and failure in the new environment is not down to the execution of retail basics, as it has been for centuries, but the ability to reframe. To get the competitive edge, retailers need to change business operations in order to solve different consumer problems in an internet world. New

Description WINNER: 2018 Les Plumes des Achats & Supply Chain - The Committee Special Prize The growing global consumption of resources highlights that our current approaches to production and business are fundamentally flawed and will rapidly become outdated and problematic. Engaged businesses are now increasingly re-thinking product design, material choices, business models and supply chains, and adopting the principles of the circular economy. Through decoupling resources from consumption, products and materials remain in use, waste is reduced and cost-savings are increased. A Circular Economy Handbook is the comprehensive guide to the circular economy and is designed to help the reader create future-fit, sustainable strategies moving forward.

Risk, Compliance & CSR
Now in its seventh edition, the bestselling IT Governance provides guidance for companies looking to protect and enhance their information security management systems (ISMS) and protect themselves against cyber threats. The new edition covers changes in global regulation, particularly GDPR, and updates to standards in the ISO/IEC 27000 family, BS 7799-3:2017 (information security risk management) plus the latest standards on auditing. It also includes advice on the development and implementation of an ISMS that will meet the ISO 27001 specification and how sector-specific standards can and should be factored in. With information on risk assessments, compliance, equipment and operations security, controls against malware and asset management, IT Governance is the definitive guide to implementing an effective information security management and governance system.
