If these past years have taught us anything, it's that so many women are stuck—stuck in jobs they despise, marriages that are joyless, roles they didn't ask for, and even in their own heads. The pandemic shook our world and now as we emerge from the cover of COVID, going back to "normal" seems insufferable. 
 
 
 
If there was ever an opportunity to shake things up, it's now. Through the pages of She Who Wins, Renee Bauer breaks down some uncomfortable truths about the things holding us back from truly winning in life. Because if we can survive a pandemic, homeschooling, loss of income, and even a toilet paper shortage don't we deserve to win? 
 
 
 
Using her over two decades as an award-winning divorce attorney and entrepreneur, Renee Bauer uses a tough love approach coupled with her own vulnerable stories of divorce, failure, and ultimately, reinvention, to embolden, empower, and inspire women to choose the path most uncomfortable. This self-empowerment and motivational book is equal parts mindset and strategy, that can catapult women's lives from flatlined to fabulous by leaning into doing the hard thing.

Culture Design - How to Build a...

James D. White, Krista White

How would you describe your organization's culture? Are you happy with it? Do you think you fully understand it? Do you know the risks and opportunities it creates? 
 
 
 
Most important, have you done anything to shape or change that culture, by design? 
 
 
 
If you haven't, you must. Business leaders are at a crossroads, pulled into a divided world and expected to take a stand, and they face real economic and social consequences when they don't. They are struggling to stay aligned to their true north while catering to employees, shareholders, and consumers. Gen Z has entered the workforce with new expectations. AI is a looming specter. In this climate, a weak culture will lead to a lack of trust and a lack of commitment from workers and customers. And a weak culture leads to weak results. 
 
 
 
It's time to get intentional about your organizational culture, to shape it yourself and make it strong. This book shows you how, with a proven framework and deeply practical advice for doing the work. By combining design-thinking principles with inclusive-leadership best practices, Culture Design teaches you how to shape a culture that is resilient, inclusive, powerful, and effective.
