  Quite simply this book is the executive summary of everything that matters in leadership.Summarised in these pages are the lives of two successful entrepreneurs – Michael Portz and Christian Kohlhof, and what’s more it’s essentially the entire curriculum of the leadership course that Portz and Kohlhof designed; ‘Chief of the Year’ at Global Remote Leadership Experts CoA Academy – The same content that thousands of leaders are using every day to sharpen their minds.Companies can spend thousands of dollars to attend courses, events and seminars to find divine leadership inspiration. Why on earth would they do that when this book contains all the practical, yes – practical, 100% teachable leadership tools and knowledge you and your fellow executives and managers need at an absolute fraction of the price.There's also a key difference to all those other leadership books – something very special about the way it's been written – it’s in dialogue style which has been proven to be the most successful learning format, directly from Plato in 500 BC to Harvard University today, people learn better this way using ‘platonic methodology’.This book is a true treasure trove of leadership that reflects on past successes and failures, it also discusses how the most successful entrepreneurs and leaders are the ones with a deep understanding of who they are, how they function, and how they can use their unique traits to be a positive influence for others.Think of it like the best leadership book of all times combining those that have been and all those training courses rolled into one! As founders of CoA Academy and long-term members of the Entrepreneurs' Organization Portz and Kohlhof’s mantra is: “You either get the results you want, or the excuses you make”.Chief of Anything will give you a 10-year shortcut to great leadership and help you apply the learning to your everyday situations as well as building great strategies for tomorrow.

  Vandana Shiva has been described in many ways: the “Gandhi of Grain,” “a rock star” in the battle against GMOs, and “the most powerful voice” for people of the developing world. For over four decades, she has vociferously advocated for diversity, indigenous knowledge, localization, and real democracy; she has been at the forefront of seed saving, food sovereignty, and connecting the dots between the destruction of nature, the polarization of societies, and indiscriminate corporate greed. In Terra Viva, Dr. Shiva shares her most memorable campaigns, alongside some of the world’s most celebrated activists and environmentalists, all working toward a livable planet and healthier democracies. For the very first time, she also recounts the stories of her childhood in post-partition India?the influence of the Himalayan forests she roamed; her parents, who saw no difference in the education of boys and girls at a time when this was not the norm; and the Chipko movement, whose women were “the real custodians of biodiversity-related knowledge.” Throughout, Shiva’s pursuit of a unique intellectual path marrying quantum physics with science, technology, and environmental policy will captivate listeners. Terra Viva is a celebration of a remarkable life and a clear-eyed assessment of the challenges we face moving forward?including those revealed by the COVID crisis, the privatization of biotechnology, and the commodification of our biological and natural resources.

  "Fiat Money Inflation in France" is a book written by Andrew Dickson White, a prominent historian and diplomat, which explores the causes and consequences of the inflationary period in France during the late 18th century. 
  The book describes the financial crisis that occurred in France during the French Revolution, when the government began printing vast amounts of paper money, known as assignats, to fund its war efforts and other expenditures. The resulting inflation had devastating effects on the economy, causing widespread poverty, social unrest, and political instability. 
  White analyzes the economic and political factors that contributed to the inflation, including the government's reliance on paper money, the lack of fiscal discipline, and the breakdown of the tax system. He also examines the impact of the inflation on various sectors of society, such as farmers, merchants, and workers, and the role of inflation in fueling political radicalism and the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. 
  Overall, "Fiat Money Inflation in France" is a seminal work on the history of money and inflation, and is often cited as a cautionary tale for governments and central banks about the dangers of excessive money creation

  Kind Business - Values Create Value

  Dr. David Cooke

  Imagine a corporate world where people and planet are at the heart of leadership decisions and businesses can still find long-term profitability and improved shareholder returns. In ‘Kind Business’ Dr David Cooke shows us that world. 
  Kind Business is divided into three parts. 
  Part 1 looks at traditional business where business behaving badly is highlighted with short-term profit seeking dominating decision making with little regard for negative impacts. These are the decisions that often result in reputational damage, corporate scandals, loss of shareholder value and discredited corporate leaders. 
  The disappointing attitudes and negative impacts of many of todays businesses in areas such as climate change, loss of biodiversity and disregard for human rights are all analysed. David uses examples from global historical occurrences through to todays Australian business landscape, including scandals and poor decision making at General Motors, VW, Enron, Rio Tinto, Qantas, PwC and Optus. The phenomenon of greenwashing, the rise of shareholder activism and the role of whistle blowers in exposing poor practices are all examined. 
  In part 2 David introduces the concept of Kind Business, where the corporate world is reimagined as a place where leaders with courage and high emotional intelligence, ones who understand the interconnectedness of all stakeholders, make decisions based around their customers and the planet. Global and Australian companies and leaders who are advocating for change and championing a new way of doing business are highlighted. 
  And lastly, in part 3, David provides a case study of an Australian tech-sector organisation that highlights evidence of the power of the philosophy of profit and purpose nourishing each other to show that when a business does good then that business will do well and that values create value.

  A deeply human exploration of how our relationship with work has evolved—and a guide for leaders who aim to make things right—from the author of The Burnout Epidemic. 
   
   
   
  Work has recently undergone profound changes, not all for the better. 
   
   
   
  AI's acceleration has led to worker fears and uncertainties around job security. DEI initiatives are underfunded or canceled. The debate over remote, hybrid, and in-person work is growing more heated. And study after study confirms a widespread sense of employee unhappiness in the workplace. 
   
   
   
  Workers are left to reexamine their relationship with work, asking themselves, Why are we here? 
   
   
   
  Workplace expert Jennifer Moss, author of The Burnout Epidemic, takes listeners to the front lines of this historic shift. Through extensive interviews, she uncovers why work has changed and highlights the leaders and organizations who have managed to build cultures that everyone really wants. 
   
   
   
  Packed with fresh insights, new research, and compelling stories, Why Are We Here? illuminates this turbulent time and offers inspiration and practical guidance for leaders navigating our complex, ever-changing world.
