  The NASA way: lessons on leadership, teamwork, and corporate culture. How does NASA take on seemingly insurmountable challenges, recover from tragedy and continue to attract the best and brightest talent?
  		 
  Space exploration is as much a story of leadership and teamwork as it is a story of exploration and discovery. Leadership Moments from NASA delves into the culture of the famed organization and examines the leadership styles and insights of NASA senior executives spanning five decades of human spaceflight to share the lessons they learned from critical moments. How did they prioritize? How did they resolve differences? How did they decide what to do when no one had done it before? How did they build highly competent teams? How did they build organizational resilience? How did they fight complacency and rebuild a culture of safety and innovation?
  		 
  Through the use of NASA oral histories and interviews, this book shows how NASA recovered from tragedy and adversity, and how it developed a culture of competency that continues to attract the best and brightest.

  The story of The Hundreds and the precepts that made it an iconic streetwear brand by Bobby Hundreds himselfStreetwear occupies that rarefied space where genuine "cool" coexists with big business; where a star designer might work concurrently with Nike, a tattoo artist, Louis Vuitton, and a skateboard company. It’s the ubiquitous style of dress comprising hoodies, sneakers, and T-shirts. In the beginning, a few brands defined this style; fewer still survived as streetwear went mainstream. They are the OGs, the “heritage brands.” The Hundreds is one of those persevering companies, and Bobby Hundreds is at the center of it all.The creative force behind the brand, Bobby Kim, a.k.a. Bobby Hundreds, has emerged as a prominent face and voice in streetwear. In telling the story of his formative years, he reminds us that The Hundreds was started by outsiders; and this is truly the story of streetwear culture.In This Is Not a T-Shirt, Bobby Hundreds cements his spot as a champion of an industry he helped create and tells the story of The Hundreds—with anecdotes ranging from his Southern California, punk-DIY-tinged youth to the brand’s explosive success. Both an inspiring memoir and an expert assessment of the history and future of streetwear, this is the tale of Bobby’s commitment to his creative vision and to building a real community.

  The Father of Modern Management’s final advice for succeeding in the global economy
  
   
  Even in the months before his death, Peter Drucker was thinking in innovative ways about management-in a world transforming before his eyes. He requested a series of meetings with Elizabeth Haas Edersheim to explain his ideas, and this insightful, practical work is the result.
  
   
  The Definitive Drucker provides visions, concepts, and advice that will help you steer your company or non-profit through the turmoil and unpredictability of business today. Topics include business risks and opportunities in the coming decades, the fragility of economic systems, the changing role of the CEO, and important trends--many of which Drucker predicted decades ago. Edersheim discusses Drucker’s questions for redefining assumptions and target results, then organizes the book into five key themes:
  
   
  * Connecting with customers 
  
  * Innovating without abandoning what works 
  
  * Developing lasting partnerships 
  
  * Creating and retaining knowledge workers 
  
  * Establishing disciplined decision making
  
   
  Drucker’s uncanny ability to see around curves and corners made him one of the most celebrated management thinkers of the past century. He always knew what was ahead, and knew how to manage it-calmly, carefully, and effectively. Use the advice outlined in The Definitive Drucker to drive productivity, growth, and a sustainable society in an uncertain future.

  The Zero-Sum Game: The Rise of the Worlds Largest  Derivatives Exchange and its Influence on the Global Economy  offers a behind-the-scenes look at how CME Group came seemingly out  of nowhere to give Wall Streets power players a run for  their moneyliterally. The merger between the Chicago Board  of Trade (CBOT) and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) formed  CME Group in mid-2007 and permanently altered the landscape of the  financial services industry. CME Group develops and hosts trading  of futures contracts that influence everything from the interest  rate on your credit card to the cost of a cheeseburger at  McDonalds to the price you pay for gas.   $5 trillion is a lot of money. Its six times the value of  all of the U.S. dollars in circulation. Its greater than the  economies of the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia and  Indiacombined. Its also the value of derivatives  contracts handled by CME Group, the worlds largest  derivatives exchange, every day.  Against the backdrop of the tumultuous (and at many times,  comical) CME/CBOT merger, The Zero-Sum Game explains just  how extensively futures trading affects the daily lives of  consumers worldwide, whether they are directly invested in the  markets or not. The book also introduces the enormous personalities  responsible for bringing the derivatives industry into the  spotlight, and will show how these same pioneers are still  struggling to transform their exchanges from good ol  boy networks to publicly-run companies. Told by Erika Olson,  an insider to the merger, The Zero-Sum Game gives you  insight into one of the newest and most politically-connected power  players in their industry, while making the inner workings of  futures exchanges accessible.
