  The Way of the Leader - 25 Ideas...

  In the history of human progress, the most fruitful developments take place at the intersection of different lines of thoughts. The timeless topic of leadership has for centuries always been dominated by the ideas and philosophies of Western thinkers, business executives, and academics. For far too long, the voice from the East has been deafeningly silent. As Asia rises in the global economy, a question that begs an answer is, "What is the leadership tradition of the East and how will it play out globally?" 
   
   
   
  Leadership consultant BH Tan has written an outstanding exposition of the Asian perspective on leadership. He has drawn upon his deep appreciation of Daoist principles to propose a complementary approach to the Western-centric leadership mindset. 
   
   
   
  A lifelong student of Eastern and Western thinking and leadership, he challenges some of our most cherished truths and perspectives. "Either-or" is out. The "both-and" philosophy will lead us to a better future in this complex, chaotic, yet interconnected world. This is the essence of leadership paradoxes. When we integrate both streams of thinking, we transcend contradictions and tap into greater possibilities for progress and creativity. This can only help us lead more wisely and courageously.

  With your passion for the 2024 football season, you want to look smart to both the sports books and your illogical friends. Instead of hot takes from supposed experts like Stephen A. Smith, you want predictions based on cutting edge analytics. In The 60 Minute Guide to the 2024 Football Season, Ed Feng uses his Stanford Ph.D. and decade of experience in sports betting to bring you two stories. First, whether Josh Allen, the gunslinger, is interception prone. Second, the secret to making accurate NFL spread predictions, especially early in the season. This audio preview is not a formulaic team by team preview or a podcast conversation with zero editing. Instead, imagine John Oliver got a math Ph.D. and tells you two of his deep dive stories on your drive from Baltimore to Philadelphia.
