Relationship Equity - Your...

Richard Walker

“Humanity is the core of our business.” — Richard Walker

As the CEO of a prominent IT consulting firm, York Solutions, Richard Walker has applied the principle of Relationship Equity to achieve tremendous business success as he builds the tech talent pool and helps professionals develop their careers. Walker describes Relationship Equity as the good faith you can build by investing in relationships faithfully and steadily, with no expectation of reaping a return.

In his new book, Relationship Equity: Your Cornerstone Investment to Great Gains in Business and Life, Walker takes his readers on a journey of discovery, examining a principle with the power to revolutionize both business and personal lives.

He explains that the relationships we forge with others are of supreme importance—and when you get those right, the rest will follow.

“If you are a friend who is genuine,” he writes, “you will have genuine friends—and lo and behold— they will want to help you just as you have helped them.”

Sounds simple? It’s not.

Relationship Equity has many nuances, and Walker explores them all in Relationship Equity. To share the story of how he developed the philosophy, he escorts his readers back to the small-town world of his youth in northern England, then onward to his corporate life at the helm of a thriving American tech company.

“In our families, our businesses, our communities, our world—we need one another,” Walker writes. “We are not islands unto ourselves.”

In his new book, Walker teaches us what he and his company are doing today to pay forward the many acts of kindness that have come his way through the years. Richard Walker has made it his business to change lives for the better, and his business reflects that.

The Modern Trusted Advisor -...

Alan Weiss, Nancy MacKay

The best and the brightest use advisors and experts. In fact, one could say that they are the best and the brightest because they utilized trusted advisors throughout their careers. 
 
 
 
Whether in business, sports, entertainment, academia, or politics—expert help is a fundamental enabler of success. That means that the demand for expert advice will grow and the competition will increase for such help. This isn't a matter of "certificates" and "universities," it's a matter of specific skill and behavioral sets that create a trusting bond and reliance. Trusted advisors are beyond coaches—they are comprehensive resources and supporters. 
 
 
 
The Modern Trusted Advisor employs important mastery traits, such as subordinating ego, applying shared experiences, and managing emotional, mental, and intellectual health. We are entering a world of "no normal" today and leaders must inspire others daily. 
 
 
 
This is the book that prepares you to inspire those leaders.

Deadly Departure

Christine Negroni

The in-flight explosion of TWA Flight 800 on July 17, 1996, was one of the deadliest air disasters in American history, triggering one of longest and most confounding investigations. Even today, many people still believe there was a government conspiracy to hide the real cause of the crash. If anyone was covering up the truth about the blast that brought down the jumbo jet as it departed New York for Paris, it was Boeing. For years, the company kept from investigators, vital information about a dangerous design flaw at the heart of the airplane. It took intrepid investigators years to understand how a tiny spark in a massive fuel tank could lead to the deaths of 230 people. This insight into Boeing is significant given several accidents on new model Boeing airliners that would follow in the decades to come. Written by television correspondent and air safety specialist, Christine Negroni, Deadly Departure reveals the chaos behind the massive crash investigation exacerbated by political feuding among various government agencies. Deadly Departure reveals the surprising motivations of those promoting the theory that the true cause of the crash has been covered up. Readers learn about the victims and their families, the rescue and crisis workers, the investigators and scientists, the grifters and imposters. It is an impeccably researched, and provocative story of one of the great disasters of our time.

The Thriving Lawyer: A Multidimensional Model of Well-Being for a Sustainable Legal Profession is based on an innovative model, grounded in science.

Leading Impactful Teams -...

James Louttit

Winner of the 2023 PMI Project Professional of the Year*
Winner of the 2024 Goody Book Awards Best Book - Business / Management
In the run up to 2016 I was a senior manager making what I now know were dozens of mistakes every day, but fixing them with effort and determination, and stress. It nearly killed me, but as my dad says "experience is worth what it costs you", and that experience was worth a lot.
After I got out of hospital I studied everything I could about projects, agile, design thinking, psychology. facilitation human behaviours and anything else I thought would be useful to people like me. I figured out how to simplify things down and explain them to my team and stakeholders and went from being "just another" project manager working 60 hours a week, to becoming a leader in a major PLC with an empowered team who had amazing opportunities, buy-in and motivation.
After 3 years as a Chief Information Officer, coaching guiding my team to take on more and more responsibility (and get the promotions they deserved), I was able to manage my diary properly, and I went to a 4-day working week and started thinking about sharing the techniques more widely. 6 months later, I left that role and now I teach the biggest companies in Ireland how to simplify their projects and work efforts, empower their teams and generally reduce stress and achieve better outcomes all round. Many of the approaches and ideas are incredibly simple to learn and you can start using them immediately.
With stories and insights that will create several "ah-ha" moments, a lot of problems you'll recognise and even a few giggles, I hope you'll enjoy this as both entertainment and a learning experience. I guarantee that you'll take away many valuable ideas. If you don't - ping me on LinkedIn (I'm easy to find) and I'll give you double your money back.
