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.

    The untold story of how efforts to hold big business accountable changed American capitalism. 
     
     
     
    In this vivid and surprising history, we meet twentieth-century activists, investors, executives, and workers who fought over a simple question: Is the role of the corporation to deliver profits to shareholders, or something more? On one side were "business statesmen" who believed corporate largess could solve social problems. On the other were libertarian intellectuals such as Milton Friedman and his oft-forgotten contemporary, Henry Manne, whose theories justified the ruthless tactics of a growing class of corporate raiders. But Kyle Edward Williams reveals that before the "activist investor" emerged as a capitalist archetype, Civil Rights groups used a similar playbook for different ends, buying shares to change a company from within. 
     
     
     
    As a rising tide of activists pushed corporations to account for societal harms from napalm to environmental pollution to inequitable hiring, a new idea emerged: that managers could maximize value for society while still turning a maximal profit. This elusive ideal, "stakeholder capitalism," still dominates our headlines today. Williams's necessary history equips us to reconsider democracy's tangled relationship with capitalism.

    Embark on a transformative journey with The 8 Pillars of Leadership, New Rules for New Times, a focused guide to a new era of leadership excellence distilled from William Stanek's comprehensive work, The Resilient Leader: Embracing Resilience for Success. Times have changed, the rules have changed, and the old certainties of business and leadership no longer provide a reliable map. This practical leadership plan explores the dynamic nature of intelligence, the historical roots and modern evolution of leadership, the limits of society's narrow focus on emotional intelligence, the deeper role of emotional resilience, and the transformative potential of the 8 Pillars as a whole-person framework for growth. Moving beyond familiar discussions of EQ and IQ, Stanek shows how leadership success depends on a broader range of intelligences, including emotional, practical, ethical, relational, cultural, creative, and analytical strengths. Designed for leaders, emerging leaders, and anyone seeking greater personal and professional effectiveness, this book offers a roadmap for challenging old assumptions, cultivating self-awareness, adapting to uncertainty, and leading with authenticity, clarity, resilience, and purpose in new times.
