Description
Author Information
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.
Chris Lewis is the founder and CEO of LEWIS, one of the largest independent marketing and communications agencies in the world. He is a media trainer who has coached senior politicians, businesspeople and celebrities. He is a published author and journalist featured in The Financial Times, Daily Telegraph and The Guardian.
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. 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.

Scott Smith is a renowned futurist, business writer and adviser who is an expert in strategic foresight and futures design. He has over 25 years of grounded experience in applied foresight and has advised global corporations, governments and NGOs including UNICEF, ASOS, the Dubai Future Foundation and Comcast. He has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, WIRED, Quartz and The Atlantic. He is based in Amsterdam.
How can you be prepared for what’s next when emerging trends constantly threaten to turn your strategic plan on its head? The world of business is experiencing a state of hyperchange influenced by global movements, disruptive technologies, political uprisings and new consumer expectations. If your world is turned upside down, will you know how to pivot and thrive, or will you be roadkill in the ‘adapt or die’ business race? Futuring is the art of anticipating and testing the trade-offs of different futures by making sense of key trends, signals and emerging patterns. How to Future is the only book that will teach you how to become a strategy wayfinder, allowing you to evaluate, plan and prepare for better futures for you and your business.
Madeline Ashby is a consulting futurist, expert and adviser on technology, culture, politics and strategic foresight, based in Toronto. She is a regular contributor to Slate and writes for MIT Technology Review.
How to Future is a guidebook to futuring and arms you with tools, strategies and practices that illuminate new strategic pathways. Renowned futurists Scott Smith and Madeline Ashby teach you how to manage the daily flood of information and signals, and discern emergent patterns that have a direct impact on the direction of your business. How to Future isn’t about the “one future” you expect. Instead, this book equips you with valuable tools and concepts, builds a future-focused mindset and enables you to envision, stress-test and prototype adaptable, informed and agile strategic visioning. These tools will empower you, your team and your organization to anticipate whatever futures emerge.

Discover the next big competitive advantage in business and learn how augmented and virtual reality can put your business ahead.
Jeremy Dalton leads PwC’s VR/AR team, helping clients across all sectors understand, quantify and implement the benefits of virtual reality and augmented reality technology. As part of his mission to educate, connect and inspire, he is also a member of the World Economic Forum VR/AR Global Future Council and sits on the advisory board of ImmerseUK, a government-sponsored cross-sector network for businesses, research and educational organizations in the immersive technology industry.
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, the UK Courts, 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 - 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.

Description
Igor Pejic is the Head of Marketing at BNP Paribas PF AT, part of Europe’s largest banking group. A former business journalist, the author regularly comments on payments, transactions and the blockchain in the media. He was voted by McKinsey and the Financial Times as one of three finalists in the Bracken Bower Prize with his work on blockchain in 2016, which has resulted in this book.
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 tech-evangelists, 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.

Blockchain Babel looks at blockchain alongside innovation diffusion, competitive dynamics and management strategy. Shortlisted as one of the three best business book proposals by McKinsey and the Financial Times for the Bracken Bower Prize in 2016, this is a must-read for business leaders and aspiring leaders wanting to grasp blockchain and put it into context and understand the practical implications it may have.

Author Information
Modern life is complicated, much more so than it used to be. Acclaimed author and social entrepreneur, Julia Hobsbawm, shows you a simpler way.
Julia Hobsbawm is an entrepreneur and writer who address the problems and solutions of humans in the machine age. She was described by James Harding, former editor of The Times and of BBC News and founder of Tortoise Media, as ‘one of the most important public intellectuals in the UK’. She is Honorary Visiting Professor of Workplace Social Health at London’s Cass Business School.
The Simplicity Principle challenges the assumption that all things that are complex have to stay that way. It helps keep things as lean, simple and focused as possible. Smartphone users experience concentration interruptions every 12 minutes of the day, there are over 250 billion emails sent every 24 hours and by 2021 the internet will have created more than 3.3 zettabytes of data. Yet complexity doesn’t have to dominate, complicate or clutter our lives. Based on a hexagonal model, this book shows you that it’s easy to streamline and simplify both your professional and personal lives with lessons based on the natural world. For anyone who feels that life can be too much, The Simplicity Principle will help you break free of the endless choices and complexities that we face in the world today. It’s time to gain control of your focus and productivity, and most importantly, KEEP IT SIMPLE.

What if you could mindread and snoop around in the minds of the world’s best business leaders?

And these legendary business minds have different thought processes from the rest of us.

Business & Management
There are many reasons why we don’t reach optimum thought performance and we make the wrong decisions at work. We often rely on past experience, we listen to experts blindly or we let group thinking take over. The Sunday Times bestselling and Business Book Award winning author, Jonathan MacDonald, argues in Think Up! that you can train your mind to make better decisions to ultimately win at work. This book is a practical guide to thinking better, managing the most common biases and traps in judgement and putting in place a system to reach optimal thought performance. Think Up! teaches you to pause your thinking muscle, develop an awareness of factors and influences on your decisions, and evaluate better paths and alternatives. With great examples of where companies and leaders have got it right by pausing and thinking, as well as spectacular failings in business decisions, examples include Microsoft, Virgin, Google and GE. Thinking shouldn’t be an afterthought. Prioritize it and think up!

Author Information
Description
Carol Kinsey Goman, Ph.D. is an international keynote speaker and authority on leadership presence and how body language can help (or hurt) a leader’s effectiveness. With clients in over 300 organizations in 27 countries, Dr. Goman helps managers, executives and entrepreneurs build their impact and influence skills. She is a leadership contributor for Forbes and author of LinkedIn Learning’s “Body Language for Leaders” (with over 2 million views). She is cited in Industry Week, Investors’ Business Daily, CNN’s Business Unusual, PBS Marketplace, the Washington Post’s On Leadership column, MarketWatch radio and NBC Nightly News.
Leadership presence is that illusive “we know it when we see it” quality. You may have a leadership title or tremendous leadership potential, but that alone does not give you presence. Being perceived as a leader when interacting with customers, peers or executives is the essence of leadership presence. Your leadership presence is evaluated by others based on how you show up and contribute in meetings, how well you project confidence and keep poise under pressure and whether you can engage others in ways that are authentic, empathetic and motivational. Stand Out walks you through achieving this presence so you get that next promotion and give your career that extra boost. Stand Out explains that the goal of leadership presence is to align other people’s impression of you with your best authentic self. Body language expert and executive coach Carol Kinsey Goman teaches the five essential skills needed: composure, connection, confidence, credibility and charisma. She also explains how leadership presence is different for women, how nonverbal communication builds or destroys presence and why self-promotion is essential. This book shows aspiring and experienced leaders alike how to more positively influence the impression they make on others.

Your biggest asset in leadership is you. How can you expect people to trust and believe in you, if you aren’t truthful and don’t embrace your whole self at work? There is a need for a new kind of leadership; one that bleeds personality and rings true to employees and customers alike who crave authenticity. You Lead argues that business leaders deliver superior results, communities of engagement both inside and outside of the company and true values-driven success when they are themselves and come across as genuine. Bestselling author, Minter Dial, shows readers how embracing your whole self at work encourages people to also be themselves, seek true fulfilment at work and merge the personal and professional to become true followers of what you stand for. You Lead is a call to arms to leaders to stop pretending to be who they are not, and play on their uniqueness and strengths, to allow people to do the same and develop a culture of authenticity and purpose. Learn how you can: - Be yourself, lead by example and merge the professional and personal - Stand for something and allow people to develop true purpose at work - Allow a community to flourish through the right kind of governance model - Radiate your purpose through employees and customers alike for long-term performance

Description
James Ashton was city editor and executive editor at the London Evening Standard and Independent and before that city editor at The Sunday Times and chief city correspondent at the Daily Mail. During this period he covered some of the biggest economic and corporate stories of recent times.
Where chief executives and company presidents lead, thousands follow. These elites make excruciatingly difficult calls on strategies which will affect jobs, drive corporate growth and investment and deliver shareholder returns. But their impact is far greater than merely numbers on a balance sheet. Their personalities dramatically set the tone of their organization. Do these people have anything in common? Do they share any similar behaviours and philosophies?
Today he regularly writes columns and interviews for several national newspapers including the daily and Sunday Telegraph and The Times on business, leadership, technology and investment. His podcast, ‘Leading with James Ashton’, features bosses from the worlds of business, charity, the arts and sport, swapping stories about how they learnt to lead.

The Nine Types of Leader introduce some obvious and some not so obvious types of leader. From the alphas, the campaigners and the lovers, through to the fixers, the founders and the scions, via the sellers, the diplomats and moderns, this book introduces them through stories, anecdotes and insight garnered from hundreds of encounters with world-class leaders. Featuring interviews with industry titans including Jean-Francois Decaux of JC Decaux, Michael Rapino of Live Nation, Ana Botin of Santander, James Daunt of Barnes & Noble and Waterstones, Dame Moya Greene of the Royal Mail and Isabelle Kocher of Engie, it explores how the leaders of tomorrow will improve their game by borrowing from the very best of the nine types of leader that exist today.

Studies show that a massive 70% of people feel like an imposter at some point in their professional life. Brand guru and former Chair of Interbrand, Rita Clifton, shares how she learnt to work with her imposter self rather than hide from it in order to succeed in her career. Imposter syndrome can cause a constant fear of being found out that you aren't 'good enough' or called out for being a 'fraud'. It impacts people in different ways and can be debilitating and negatively affect relationships, personal life and careers. So what can you do about it? Love Your Imposter shows you how to take on your imposter self and use it as a driver to come out stronger. Using practical down-to-earth advice based on her experiences, Rita Clifton, tackles the myth that you need to 'fake it until you make it', highlights why authenticity can be your biggest weapon and skilfully makes the case for business being more humane.

Author Information
The business world is currently experiencing fundamental disruption, in part driven by the technology enabled Fourth Industrial Revolution. Corporate value is created and lost in breathtakingly short periods, and the rise of ‘unicorns’ against the demise of once-venerated organizations has shown that how firms compete has changed. Management and Leadership in the 4th Industrial Revolution presents a framework for managing and winning in the new accelerated world of business, focusing on the key capabilities organizations now need to achieve competitively superior performance. Building on the ‘dynamic capabilities’ approach already familiar to strategists and based around his own research, Stephen Wyatt shows how executives can assess the dynamic capacity of their organization - a leading indicator of future performance in comparison with their industry peers.
Stephen Wyatt is Professor of Strategy and Leadership at the University of Bath. For over 25 years he has been a business consultant focused on developing leaders and enabling organizations to thrive in highly dynamic environments. He is also Affiliate Faculty at Singapore Management University and Industrial Associate at the University of Cambridge, and serves on the boards of the Global Innovation Management Institute and the Management Consulting Institute.
Written in an accessible style with best practice examples from companies and quotes from executives to support each insight, this book includes a self-assessment questionnaire to measure the dynamic capacity of your organization and advice on how to strengthen areas of relative weakness. Management and Leadership in the 4th Industrial Revolution offers timely insights on driving innovation and emphasizes the importance of long-term strategy, change management and new models of dynamic leadership.

Author Information
In the new world of work, agility is a business imperative. From small tech start-ups or large traditional companies, organizations need to be fast, flexible and digitally empowered to succeed. However, too many companies are stuck with siloed, compliance-driven HR processes that work in opposition to the business rather than supporting it. This results in the view that HR is slow and out of touch. However, Agile HR shows that this doesn’t need to be the case. It is a practical guide written specifically for people professionals on how the HR function can develop agile processes and practices that save time, boost performance and support overall business goals.
Natal Dank is the Chief HR Agilist at Southern Blue Consulting where she works with HR teams and leaders to help them to embrace an agile mindset and redesign processes for business success. She is also the co-founder of Agile HR Community.
Covering every aspect of the HR function from people processes, ways of working and HR services to organization design, operating models and HR teams, Agile HR is an essential guide for all HR practitioners wanting to make their HR practices agile and drive business performance but don’t know where to start. As well as guidance on how to deal with resistance, manage a backlog and deal with constraints, there is also invaluable guidance on how HR can prioritize effectively and assess which activities to pursue, which to develop, which to rework and which to abandon in order to achieve continuous business improvement. Supported by case studies from organizations who have seen the benefits of an agile approach to HR including Sky, Zurich Insurance and KONE, this is critical reading for all HR professionals in organizations of any size needing to adopt fast, flexible and evolving agile approaches to effectively compete in the new world of work.

Technology can have huge benefits for the HR function. Whether it’s saving time by streamlining processes, boosting engagement by enabling analysis of people data or improving employee development by allowing staff to access the content they need on different platforms, wherever and whenever they need it, the opportunities are vast. However, with more apps, software and platforms than ever before, the volume and variety of available technologies can be overwhelming. This makes it extremely difficult for HR professionals to know where to start when assessing what technologies are out there and which are worth investing in. Introduction to HR Technologies addresses these issues in clear, accessible and jargon-free language and is an indispensable guide for HR professionals needing to get to grips with technologies and understand how to use them to add tangible business value. Covering all the core areas of HR including recruitment, performance management, learning and development (L&D) and reward, Introduction to HR Technologies allows practitioners to identify areas where technologies can be used to drive performance and what to look for when assessing technological solutions. There is also discussion of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and the Internet of Things (IoT) and what they mean for HR. This book is essential reading for all HR professionals looking to use technology confidently to increase performance, improve processes and add value to both employees and the business as a whole.

Description
Author Information
With unemployment rates globally at a 50-year low, finding the right person for the job is increasingly difficult, expensive and often unsuccessful. In fact, almost 30% of US job seekers have left a job within the first 90 days. In High-Tech High-Touch Recruiting, expert recruiter and trainer Barbara Bruno attributes these low retention rates to poor recruiting practices.
Barbara Bruno has trained over 25,000 recruiters in 13 countries and consults to some of the largest recruiting companies in the world, including Management Recruiters International, Robert Half, Pride Staff, Express Employment Professionals, Fortune Personnel and DAV in South Africa. Her company, Good As Gold Training and HR Search, offers inperson and virtual training services and tools. She has received the highest national award from the Staffing and Recruiting Profession, The Harold B. Nelson Award, and was inducted into the National Association of Personnel Services Hall of Fame.
Retention begins with recruiting. More than explaining why and how recruiting efforts fail, High-Tech High-Touch Recruiting outlines strategies for successfully blending the use of ‘high-tech’ tools with ‘high-touch’ relationship-building skills. For example, she recommends the use of AI-powered software applications to identify a large pool of qualified job candidates, but cautions against the sole use of text and email communication. Instead, she recommends that recruiters conduct a general interview in order to better ascertain whether a candidate is the best fit for the role. High-Tech High-Touch Recruiting provides recruiters with an end-to-end process for recruiting the highest calibre talent who, after they are hired, will become engaged employees. The book comes with online resources including sample offer letters, recruiting scripts, job requisitions, interview scorecard, a listing of characteristics of best hires and guidelines for a 9-step telephone interview process.

Description
Author Information
The best way for a business to succeed is through its people. While there are gains to be had from streamlining processes, reducing costs or making a strategic change, the biggest potential for success comes from people. More than this, the greatest gains are achieved through a high-performing team which is greater than the sum of its parts. Building Top Performing Teams is a practical guide for HR professionals, coaches and anyone with management responsibility on how to motivate, develop, engage and reward a team of employees with different levels of experience and different priorities from a variety of generations to achieve outstanding business success.
Lucy Widdowson is the Founder and Director of Performance Edge Consulting. She has over 30 years’ experience and has worked at board level as HR Director at The Body Shop and Head of HR at Virgin Nigeria Airways. She is also a UK Associate Board Member for the International Coach Federation.
Building Top Performing Teams also includes essential guidance on how to manage internal team conflict and ensure that teams are purpose-driven and working towards a shared business goal. Each chapter includes diagnostic questions and reflective practice exercises to allow readers to identify how to apply each element of team development to their own workforce. There are also tools and techniques throughout on how to promote team ways of working rather than individual-focused processes. Supported by case studies from companies including John Lewis, Mothercare, Carlsberg, PepsiCo and Unilever, this is essential reading for anyone needing to unlock the value of their team to achieve greater business performance.

Named by HR Magazine as one of the most influential HR thinkers of 2017, he is a visiting fellow at Sheffield Hallam University Business School, a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (RSA) and the world’s first WorldBlu-certified Freedom at Work coach.

Productivity is flatlining, employee wellbeing is at an all-time low and stress at an all-time high. Mental health issues are now the biggest single disability affecting the UK and are estimated to cost the economy £105bn each year. Traditional company design, structures and processes are making these issues worse and leading to unprecedented levels of staff burnout. This not only impacts individual employees, there is also a detrimental effect on overall company performance when employees can’t perform to their full potential. It is the responsibility of Organizational Development and HR professionals to address these issues urgently and redesign work to allow people to flourish and businesses to thrive. Full of practical advice, tips and tools, The Energized Workplace provides a blueprint for how practitioners can redesign their organizations to support employees and ensure the business outperforms the competition. It covers everything from why existing structures are causing business output to decline, why traditional processes are holding organizations back and what the consequences of not addressing these design issues will mean for business including increased staff turnover, a rise in employee absence and a decline in company profits. Including case studies from organizations across a range of sectors who have successfully put people at the heart of their workplace design such as ING Bank, Tata Consulting and WD-40; with specific guidance on designing for five generations working side by side, across different countries and on separate time zones, The Energized Workplace will help OD and HR professionals confidently tackle the organizational issues putting their company success and employee health and happiness in jeopardy. Supported by research from Cranfield School of Management, this book is essential reading for practitioners needing to deal with the wellbeing crisis and productivity puzzle in the new world of work.

Author Information
What if we have been wrong about learning? Learning may have more in common with marketing than we thought. Looking at marketing and learning’s common root, How People Learn shows L&D professionals a new way of thinking about learning by exploring what happens when we learn. It considers applications from AI, marketing and ethics and is informed by psychology and contemporary neuroscience in order to show L&D professionals how to design training with their employees in mind so that training makes a real difference to skills, capabilities, performance and development, rather than being a waste of time, money and resources.
Nick Shackleton-Jones is the Director of Learning and Performance Innovation at PA Consulting Group where he helps organizations improve employee performance and engagement through their approach to learning. Prior to this, he was Director of Learning Innovation and Technology at BP and has also held senior roles in L&D at Siemens Communications and the BBC. In 2017, he was awarded the Colin Corder award by the Learning and Performance Institute for services to the learning industry.
Using the author’s ‘5Di model’, How People Learn demonstrates how to define, design and deploy training in a user-centred way so it works both for and with employees. It also includes guidance on what training resources to create when employees are actively searching for learning content. Using this book, L&D practitioners will be able to use pull and push techniques to provide content that people use and experiences that transform their behaviour. From how to use simulations, storytelling and anticipation to the importance of observation and status, this book gives L&D professionals everything they need to build effective training programmes and learning experiences. With a foreword by Dr Roger Schank, the Chairman and CEO of Socratic Arts and Executive Director of Engines for Education, and case studies from companies such as BP and the BBC, this is an urgent read for learning professionals.

Laura Overton is an award-winning learning expert with over 30 years’ experience in the learning industry. She is the founder of Towards Maturity, an independent learning analysis company which has been delivering the L&D industry’s annual benchmark report since 2003. Prior to this, she was an e-learning champion at e-Skills UK and was responsible for e-learning implementation at Smartforce. In 2018, Laura Overton was listed number one in the e-learning Movers and Shakers list, an annual report of the Top 100 most influential people in the learning industry across the world.
The world of work is changing and the pressure on learning and development (L&D) professionals to develop a workforce with the necessary skills to succeed both now and in the future as well as to drive overall business performance is huge. However, this goal can only be achieved if L&D practitioners themselves have the right skills, capabilities and strategies in place. According to research from Towards Maturity which surveyed 7,500 learning professionals, 95% of people didn’t feel confident in their ability to meet this objective because they felt ill-equipped and under-skilled. Excellence in Learning and Development Practice solves this problem by providing L&D practitioners with everything they need to use their role to drive individual and business performance. Excellence in Learning and Development Practice covers how to assess the current learning landscape, how to prioritize performance, how to overcome barriers to learning, outlines strategies for learning success and develops the skills and mindset needed to succeed in an L&D role. It is supported by insights from Towards Maturity research throughout and is full of practical tips, tools and examples from top-performing learning organizations. It also includes interviews with exceptional L&D professionals such as the Chief Learning Strategist at PwC and the Learning and Innovation Director at Unilever. Written by a leading name in the learning industry, this is a book that no L&D practitioner can afford to be without.

Explore Amazon’s disruptive new retail strategies, its impact on the wider eCommerce sector, and gain valuable lessons that can be applied to retailers globally.
Natalie Berg has spent many years helping retailers compete, or partner with, retail giants like Walmart and Amazon. A prolific speaker and retail commentator, she is former Global Research Director at Planet Retail and runs her own consultancy, NBK Retail, specializing in retail strategy, changing shopping habits and future trends. She is co-author of Walmart.
The retail industry is facing unprecedented challenges. Across all sectors and markets, retailers are shifting their business models and customer engagement strategies to ensure their survival. The rise of online shopping, and its primary player, Amazon, is at the heart of many of these changes and opportunities. Amazon explores the e-commerce giant’s strategies, providing original insight at a time when the company is on the cusp of revolutionizing itself even further. Amazon’s relentless dissatisfaction with the status quo is what makes it such an extraordinary retailer. This book explores whether Amazon has what it takes to become a credible grocery retailer, and as it transitions to bricks and mortar retailing, explores whether Amazon’s stores can be as compelling as its online offering and if innovations such as voice technology, checkout-free stores and its Prime ecosystem will fundamentally change the way consumers shop. Written by industry leading retail analysts who have spent decades providing research-based analysis and opinion, Amazon analyzes the impact these initiatives will have on the wider retail sector and the lessons that can be learned from its unprecedented rise to dominance, as stores of the future become less about transactions and more about experiences.
Miya Knights is Head of Eagle Eye Solutions with 20 years’ experience as an analyst, journalist and editor, specializing in enterprise technology use in retail. She owns Retail Technology magazine, is ranked one of Vend’s top 50 retail influencers and has appeared on the BBC, ITN and Sky News, as well as regularly speaking at or moderating industry events.

Description
Author Information
For years, sales people have struggled with cliched views of how they sell, while at the same time customers have become more sophisticated and discerning, stopping off at different or unconventional places in the sales funnel. The result is that the technique of sales people controlling the sales conversation and learning how to influence the customer no longer works. Selling Transformed introduces the new world of selling, and addresses the reasons why sales people are so poorly perceived.
Philip Squire is CEO of Consalia, a sales consulting group. For over 20 years he has provided sales consulting education services and training to brands including Apple, AT &T, Ford, Hertz, HP, Pirelli, Royal Caribbean, SAP and Zurich Financial Services. He is a subject matter expert for the UK Trail Blazer undergraduate apprenticeship sales degrees and is co-founder of the International Journal of Sales Transformation.
Selling Transformed provides fresh, tangible ideas on how to develop better sales practices. Focusing as much on the customers as on the sellers, it explains key theories of selling effectively and introduces four proven strategies that are based on the values customers look for in sales people: authenticity, client-centricity, proactive creativity and being tactfully audacious. Explaining what customers look for in sales people, and advising on how to develop and deliver these values, this is a new type of sales manual guaranteed to improve sales performance. Online resources include videos to support further learning and teaching.

Author Information
When it comes to buying a mobile phone, choosing a university, selecting a software system, or making any other purchase in a crowded marketplace, many consumers feel they are faced with a ‘sea of sameness’. The websites and social media streams of the various companies all seem to blur into one, with the same phrases and promises repeated over and over again. Stand Out Marketing presents original research which compares the content produced by over 30 organizations in leading sectors to quantify this effect, proving not only that the ‘sea of sameness’ exists, but documenting its precise size and nature.
Dr Simon Kelly is President of Shake Marketing, and was formerly Marketing Director (SVP) of British Telecom. He is also Senior Lecturer in Marketing at Sheffield Business School, and Lecturer in Marketing and Sales at University of York.
On the back of this unique and fascinating research, Stand Out Marketing traces the problem back to its roots and offers a proven, seven-step framework to help companies rise above it and differentiate themselves from the competition. By re-focusing on the customer and their needs, and re-shaping the capabilities, attitudes and behaviours of the organization accordingly, the framework will help companies stand out and deliver genuine value. Over time, this value will convert to growth and profits for any business.
Dr Paul Johnston teaches marketing at Sheffield Hallam University and is currently Associate Lecturer and Researcher. He has also been Visiting Lecturer for the IESEG Management School Paris, Visiting Supervisor for the University of Birmingham UK, and Visiting Supervisor for the University of Sheffield UK.

Social networks are the new norm and traditional marketing is failing in today’s digital, always-on culture. Businesses across the world are having to face up to how they remain relevant in the choppy waters of the digital ocean. In an era where a YouTube star gets more daily impressions than Nike, Coca-Cola and Walmart combined, traditional marketing as we know it is dead. The End of Marketing revolutionizes the way brands, agencies and marketers should approach marketing. From how Donald Trump won the American presidency using social media and why Kim Kardashian is one of the world’s biggest online brands, through to the impact of bots and automation, this book will teach you about new features and emerging platforms that will engage customers and employees. Discover bold content ideas, hear from some of the world’s largest brands and content creators and find out how to build smarter paid-strategies, guaranteed to help you dominate your markets. The End of Marketing explains that no matter how easy it is to reach potential customers, the key relationship between brand and consumer still needs the human touch. Learn how to put ‘social’ back into social media and claim brand relevancy in a world where algorithms dominate, organic reach is dwindling and consumers don’t want to be sold to, they want to be engaged.

Description
Tatenda Talent Chingono lectures in the Department of Transportation and Supply Chain Management at the University of Johannesburg.
Developing consumer markets offer exciting economic opportunities to multinational companies that can obtain a market share. However, too often poor infrastructure, difficult trade procedures and fragmented retail markets make it a challenge to break into these regions. Supply Networks in Developing Countries examines how companies have succeeded in overcoming these supply chain challenges in these difficult business environments and provides research to explain how these principles can be applied.
Charles Mbohwa is a professor in the Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment at the University of Johannesburg. He was formerly a senior lecturer in mechanical engineering at the University of Zimbabwe. Jose Arturo Garza-Reyes is a Professor of Operations Management and Head of the Centre for Supply Chain Improvement at the University of Derby
Supply Networks in Developing Countries includes case studies from big name brands such as Coca-Cola and Unilever, who have managed to use creative ways, in line with how businesses work in these developing countries, to tap into the global growth. From utilizing unconventional methods of transportation, to adopting innovative approaches to reach remote regions not accessible via trucks, these strategies offer insights into how to operate in these countries. This book covers a wide range of topics including sourcing, warehousing, humanitarian logistics as well as future trends and opportunities - this is the guide to forming an effective approach to these emerging markets.

Those tasked with managing them must apply a wider range of skills and knowledge in order to identify, control and influence the many stakeholders and drivers to achieve successful delivery. Managing Major Procurement Projects is a comprehensive guide to developing these skills and embedding the knowledge required to handle these unique projects and their challenges. Managing Major Procurement Projects provides the tools and techniques needed to identify, influence and manage stakeholders. Insights are drawn from examining programmes that have significant development, build and through life operating and disposal costs. This book also takes an in-depth look at business case solutions, funding models and risk management. Case studies of major international projects including CrossRail, Al Maktoum International Airport and California High-Speed Rail Project feature throughout the text.

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. Now in its second edition, A Circular Economy Handbook provides a holistic framework for the design of supply chain and supporting business models and includes tools the reader can use to generate ideas. Using real examples across a range of market sectors, this is a mustread for businesses, students and policymakers to understand the theory and fast-developing practice of the circular economy.

Global Energy Management describes different energy sources and their characteristics and importance. It looks at the different phases of the value chain, such as procurement and treatment, transport and storage. International markets are reviewed including global supply and demand, maritime flow and processes. Maritime transport is described in detail, along with EU and US energy security policies and the future usage of different energy sources within the maritime industry.
Manuel Buitrago is a lecturer in Energy Management at Southampton University. He is also a researcher for Infrastructure Transitions Research Consortium (ITRC-MISTRAL). MISTRAL investigates ways to improve the performance and resilience of infrastructure systems and energy in the UK and around the world.
Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is rapidly taking a greater percent of the energy mix for countries around the world due to its numerous benefits. When liquefied, natural gas shrinks to 600 times its original size making it ideal for safer and more efficient shipping. Global Energy Management aims to inform and educate readers about the energy industry as a whole and uses LNG as a special case study throughout the whole book. LNG is compared to other energy sources and its many advantages are explored.

Author Information
Sustainability can create greater efficiency and cost savings in the supply chain. Supply chains, which are more complex and global than ever before, are full of both risks and opportunities. The risks range from inconsistent or poor quality to supply disruptions to health and safety concerns to corruption. Businesses face pressure to adopt sustainable supply chain practices from various stakeholders and motivations typically come from one or more of four sources: customers, compliance, costs, competitive advantage. Sustainable Global Supply Chains is the guide to understanding all aspects and approaches of sustainable supply chains using indepth research from leading academics from sixteen different universities.
Michael Henke is Chair of Enterprise Logistics at TU Dortmund University, Director of Enterprise Logistics, IML Dortmund, Professor for Strategic Sourcing and Procurement at Louvian School of Management, Paris and Professor for Supply Chain Management at Lappeenranta University of Technology, Finland.
Sustainable Global Supply Chains focuses on how to make supply chains sustainable, with an emphasis on new technologies and digitization. The research featured covers topics such as KPIs in production and supply chains, the role of standards, blockchain technology and algebraic models. This comprehensive book presents real world issues, problems in implementing sustainability in the supply chain and examples of best practice.

Author Information
Maritime logistics has been traditionally regarded as the primary means of transporting parts and finished goods on a global scale. Globalization and the rapid increase in world trade in the past decade have contributed to greater demand for international transport and logistics and, consequently, the expansion of the maritime industry. The dramatic changes in the mode of world trade and cargo transportation make it more important than ever to have a clear understanding of the way in which freight is transported by sea and the role of ports in this exchange. Maritime Logistics examines the latest developments within the port and shipping industry including the associated risks and threats.

Lars Jensen is CEO and Partner of Sea Intelligence Consulting, the co-founder of SeaIntel Maritime Analysis, founded in 2011 and CEO and founder of CyberKeel, focusing on cyber security in the maritime industry. He is CEO of the online-only container carrier Youship and responsible for developing and implementing eCommerce strategy in Maersk Line. In 2016, he co-founded LinerGrid, providing advanced tools to optimize network design for container carriers, and joined the board of the New York Shipping Exchange. He teaches on the Blue MBA at Copenhagen Business School.
As the lifeblood of global economic vitality, global liner shipping contributes significantly to international stability and security. Additionally, as a major global enterprise in its own right, the international shipping industry is a major employer and contributes hundreds of billions of dollars to the global economy annually. Liner vessels carry about 60 percent of the goods by value moved internationally by sea each year. Global Liner Shipping fills a gap in the market for an introductory book covering every aspect of this essential industry. Global Liner Shipping examines an industry where operations often do not go as planned, so skilled people are in demand. Bad weather causes delays, ports face unexpected closures due to strikes and the much-needed paperwork for the myriad of containers might be based on faulty information. Even worse, the entire flow might come to a temporary halt as seen in late June 2017 where the world’s largest container shipping line, Maersk Line, was effectively shut down due to a cyber attack. In this groundbreaking book, Lars Jensen covers topics such as network development, supply and demand analysis, collaboration, liner profit and loss, e-commerce, risk management and process management. Each chapter ends with a case study and reflective questions.

Author Information
For a long time, the world of cryptocurrencies and blockchains was viewed as a niche space of little interest to mainstream business and finance sectors. With J.P. Morgan, Facebook, Walmart, and even some central banks investing in these new technologies, this has undoubtedly changed. The Cryptocurrency Revolution explains the most important takeaways from the continued growth of digital currencies and blockchains and explores the transformative possibilities of borderless payments and machine-to-machine transactions.
Rhian Lewis is a consultant software engineer, instructor and former digital journalist at The Times. She is the co-founder of the London Women in Bitcoin meetup and launched the altcoin portfolio tracker countmycrypto.com. She is an international conference speaker and blogger on blockchain and cryptocurrency.
Written in jargon-free and accessible language, this book examines the key value proposition of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and how blockchains could enable banks to become more efficient. It looks at the potential impact of company-backed digital currencies (such as Facebook’s Libra) and how governments and regulators around the world are reacting to new innovations. With discussion of the principles of tokenomics and the difference between public and private blockchains, The Cryptocurrency Revolution is the essential guide for professionals wishing to understand the threats and opportunities of the changing world of money.

Description
Christopher J Hodson is Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), EMEA at Tanium. He has 18 years’ experience across the financial, retail, energy and media industry sectors and was previously CISO, EMEA and Data Protection Officer at Zscaler. He holds an MSc in Cyber Security from Royal Holloway and retains an active role in the Infosec industry through directorship of the Institute of Information Security Professionals (IISP) and membership of CompTIA’s Cyber Security Committee.
Most organizations are undergoing a digital transformation of some sort and are looking to embrace innovative technology, but new ways of doing business inevitably lead to new threats which can cause irreparable financial, operational and reputational damage. In an increasingly punitive regulatory climate, organizations are also under pressure to be more accountable and compliant. Cyber Risk Management clearly explains the importance of implementing a cyber security strategy and provides practical guidance for those responsible for managing threat events, vulnerabilities and controls, including malware, data leakage, insider threat and Denial-of-Service. Examples and use cases including Yahoo, Facebook and TalkTalk, add context throughout and emphasize the importance of communicating security and risk effectively, while implementation review checklists bring together key points at the end of each chapter. Cyber Risk Management analyzes the innate human factors around risk and how they affect cyber awareness and employee training, along with the need to assess the risks posed by third parties. Including an introduction to threat modelling, this book presents a datacentric approach to cyber risk management based on business impact assessments, data classification, data flow modelling and assessing return on investment. It covers pressing developments in artificial intelligence, machine learning, big data and cloud mobility, and includes advice on responding to risks which are applicable for the environment and not just based on media sensationalism.

Author Information
Faced with the compliance requirements of increasingly punitive information and privacyrelated regulation, as well as the proliferation of complex threats to information security, there is an urgent need for organizations to adopt IT governance best practice. IT Governance is a key international resource for managers in organizations of all sizes and across industries, and deals with the strategic and operational aspects of information security.
Alan Calder is Group CEO of GRC International Group plc, the AIM-listed company that owns IT Governance Ltd. He led the world’s first successful implementation of BS 7799 (now ISO 27001) and was involved in developing a wide range of information security management training courses, accredited by the International Board for IT Governance Qualifications (IBITGQ).
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.

Description
Andrew Hayward is a lawyer with more than a dozen years’ experience of compliance roles across sectors. Having previously worked for AstraZeneca and Balfour Beatty, he is now Head of Compliance and Ethics at Subsea 7, an engineering, construction and services contractor to the offshore energy industry. He worked with the British Standards Institute to develop the first anti-bribery standard (BS10500) and was part of the UK delegation on the development of the International AntiBribery Standard (BS ISO 37001:2016).
Across the world, organizations continue to be damaged and brought down by systemic noncompliance or the misdeeds of a few, and newspapers abound with examples of corporate and NGO scandals and crimes. This is despite the increasing ethical demands stakeholders are making of business, the exposing power of social media, the proliferating requirements of compliance laws and regulations, and the burgeoning numbers of policies, procedures and compliance officers that have been put in place in response. So why isn’t compliance working? The Business Guide to Effective Compliance and Ethics examines how rules-based, tickbox, defensible compliance continues to fail, and lays out a new approach for organizations seeking to flourish and succeed.
Tony Osborn is an award-winning writer, creative consultant and content developer. He has worked with leading global corporations to help them find and tell their stories and connect with stakeholders. He helped shape and write Serco’s online and printed Code of Conduct, and, with Andrew Hayward, the award-winning Balfour Beatty Code of Conduct.
Written for any organization and business, this book provides clear, thorough and practical guidance for practitioners and decision-makers. It explains in layman’s terms the skills, tools and mindset needed to develop and deliver a best practice compliance and ethics programme - one that meets the requirements made by law, stakeholders and society, and protects your organization from risk of fines, penalties and reputational damage. But this is also a book for all those interested in how to build employee engagement and motivation. The Business Guide to Effective Compliance and Ethics demonstrates the value - including competitive advantage, career satisfaction, employee and customer loyalty, and brand enhancement - that a truly effective compliance and ethics programme can bring, when it works hand in hand with a values-based culture of shared ownership.
