Synopsis

Post-it Notes Stick explores the fascinating journey of the Post-it Note, an invention arising from a "failed" adhesive. The book examines how 3M's corporate culture, particularly its "15% time" for independent projects, fostered innovation. It also reveals the pivotal role of marketing in creating a need for the product, transforming it into a global office staple. 

 
The book explains how a low-tack adhesive initially deemed useless, combined with persistent marketing, led to a ubiquitous product. The book meticulously details the science behind the adhesive, the internal struggles to champion the product, and the marketing strategies that propelled Post-it Notes to success. Readers gain insights into how a supportive corporate environment and individual ingenuity converged.

 
The narrative unfolds chronologically, starting with the invention of the unique adhesive, its accidental discovery as a bookmark solution, and finally, its lasting impact on communication and organization across various sectors. Post-it Notes Stick offers a valuable perspective on how corporate culture and serendipity, can lead to a globally successful product. By examining internal 3M documents and marketing materials, the book presents a unique case study in business history and technology.

 
This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of technology, business, and the remarkable stories behind everyday innovations.

Lead Like a Marine - Run Towards...

John Warren, Jon Thompson

A NATIONAL BESTSELLER
The U.S. Marines Corps is the greatest fighting force on the planet, but it’s so much more than that: it’s a factory for producing first-rate leaders, problem-solvers, and innovators.
In 2006, John Warren and John Thompson led Marines into combat in the world’s most dangerous city: Ramadi, Iraq. But when they got home, employers didn’t understand what they had to offer. Undeterred, they founded their own specialty mortgage company, growing it from scratch into a national powerhouse over the course of a decade.
When the two decorated veterans applied the values and training of the U.S. Marine Corps to build a thriving business, they defied corporate America’s expectations. That’s because they realized that, far from producing mindless drones, the Corps trains its warriors in adaptability, initiative, and courage—ideal traits for anyone in leadership.
In Lead Like a Marine, Warren and Thompson lay out the simple, universal rules that helped them succeed, from valuing grit and potential over pedigree, to condensing large groups into resilient “fireteams,” to cross-training team members so that anyone can step up to the plate in a crisis. While the corporate world is mired in maintaining the status quo, respecting status, and flattering ego, Warren and Thompson stripped away the fat that prevents organizations from innovating and excelling.
Full of smart, actionable advice, gripping combat stories, and entrepreneurial lessons, this book will give you the tools and the training you need to truly lead like a Marine.
