  When Sven Odia began his career at Engel & Völkers, the most important items in his office were a fax machine and a photocopier, which he used to create exposés by hand. Twenty-seven years later, Sven Odia has achieved what many dream of: starting as an apprentice at Engel & Völkers, he has had a remarkable career in the real estate industry and has worked his way to the top of the company. He took on responsibility early on and started as an entrepreneur within the company. His masterpiece: building the Engel & Völkers licensing business abroad. Odia has thus played a decisive role in shaping the fortunes of the real estate company: from its beginnings in Mallorca to its expansion into the USA – with courage, vision and hard work, Odia conquered new markets.
  
  In his book, he shows what good leadership is all about and wants to empower people to write their own success stories. His credo: people don't follow brands or companies, they follow people! A performance-enhancing corporate culture only works if it is exemplified by management day after day. Odia openly and honestly shows how he has dealt with crises, what an immensely important role culture plays in a company, and how executives effectively initiate real change. A must-read for all executives and those who aspire to write their own success story.

  Fans of TOPGUN, The Hunt for Red October and Forrest Gump will love this epic tale of struggle, tenacity and heroism.  
  Separated in age by eighteen years, Ron and Steve Lambrecht lived under the same farmhouse roof for only six months—yet both left the Minnesota cornfields of their birth for distinctly different roads of military service and achievement.   
  Their joint memoir, Boundless Brothers: Two Warriors from the Heartland, One Mission for the Homeland, offers a fresh spin on a classic American motif of homegrown country boys who navigate the wild blue yonder of sky and sea. From sailing the world on one-hundred-thousand-ton aircraft carriers to flying supersonic combat missions, these two brothers share raucous boyhood gambols, vivid sea stories, and pursuits of identity and inspiration spanning decades of selfless military service.

  Shattered - A Memoir

  From acclaimed author and playwright Hanif Kureishi comes an urgent and stunning memoir about rebuilding a new life in the wake of devastating physical loss. 
  In late 2022, in Rome, Hanif Kureishi had a fall. When he came to, he realized he could no longer walk. He could do nothing without the help of others and required constant care in a hospital. So began a yearlong odyssey through the medical systems of Rome and Italy, with the hope of somehow being able to return home to his house in London. 
  While confined to a series of hospital wards, he felt compelled to write, but being unable to type or hold a pen, he began to dictate to family members the words that formed in his head—thoughts on his medical condition, but also parenthood, immigration, sex, psychoanalysis, and, of course, writing. The result was an extraordinary series of dispatches from his hospital bed: a diary of a life in pieces, recorded with rare honesty, humor, and verve. 
  Shattered takes these dispatches—edited, expanded, and meticulously interwoven with new writing—and charts both a shattering and a reassembling: a new life born of pain and loss but also animated by new feelings of gratitude, humility, and love.
