    To create cultures where diverse teams flourish, we need boldly inclusive leaders.Organizations have made public commitments to diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, yet their leaders rarely have the skills to lead inclusively. Leadership consultant and former Silicon Valley executive Minette Norman is committed to changing that by sharing some of the most important things she’s discovered over the decades she spent in the corporate world, such as• every human being needs to feel they belong, • teams thrive when everyone feels safe enough to share their unique ideas and experiences, • innovation is a group activity,• empathy and compassion are leadership superpowers, and• leaders set the tone by what they say, do, reward, and tolerate.      This is not a book about quick fixes or paying lip service to the hot topic of inclusion. This is for leaders who want to boldly transform the workplace and are willing to leave their comfort zones. As a leader, you will learn to maximize your team’s potential and appreciate that inclusive leadership is an ongoing journey. As Minette shows, there is no flipping a switch or a neat, three-step formula. Inclusive leadership takes commitment and practice, but the rewards are enormous.

    On his death in the autumn of 2006, Milton Friedman was lauded as "the grandmaster of free-market economic theory in the postwar era" by the New York Times and "the most influential economist of the second half of the 20th century" by the Economist. Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1976, Friedman was both a highly respected economist and a prominent public intellectual, the leader of a revolution in economic and political thought that argued robustly in favor of virtues of free markets and laissez-faire policies. 
     
     
     
    Milton Friedman on Economics: Selected Papers collects a variety of Friedman's papers on topics in economics that were originally published in the Journal of Political Economy. Opening with Friedman's 1977 Nobel Lecture, the volume spans nearly the whole of his career, incorporating papers from as early as 1948 and as late as 1990. An excellent introduction to Friedman's economic thought, Milton Friedman will be essential for anyone tracing the course of twentieth-century economics and politics.

    You’ve followed the rules, hit your financial goals, and done everything “right”—so why does success still feel unfulfilling? 
    Luis Miletti Jr., CIMA®, CRPC®, has guided clients across all walks of life through the emotional complexity of wealth—and uncovered a common truth: financial success doesn’t always equal fulfillment. 
    In The Why Behind the Wealth, he introduces the North Star Method, a research-backed framework grounded in behavioral finance that helps you stop chasing arbitrary benchmarks and start aligning your money with what truly matters. Blending hard-won advisory insight with human-centered strategy, Miletti walks you through clarity, protection, and provision—the three pillars of a purpose-driven plan. Whether you’re approaching retirement, facing a life transition, or simply wondering why “winning” still feels like waiting, this book gives you the tools to turn financial noise into lasting peace. 
    It’s not about having more—it’s about alignment and purpose. 
    I’m Luis Miletti Jr., Founder of Miletti Wealth Management and a Wealth Manager with almost two decades of experience in the financial industry. For the past 15 years, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with individuals, families and small businesses to help them prepare for retirement, enjoy it with confidence, and create a legacy that lasts for generations. 
    My approach is deeply personal. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all advice—because no two people share the same story, values, or goals. That’s why I take the time to understand your “why,” and build a plan around what truly matters to you.
