    We want the thousands of hours we will work over our lifetime to matter. But how do we know they're really significant? How do we go from being defined by what we do to having our work become an expression of who we are?
    There is not a quick fix but a progressive solution: it begins with surrendering our whole lives and then every moment of our lives to God. In The Spiritual Art of Business, "corporate mystic" Barry Rowan invites us to be transformed by God that he might transform the world through us as we begin to see our work as an extension of our faith. He says, "We don't derive meaning from our work; we bring meaning to our work." Relating his extensive past in high-ranking executive roles, Rowan beckons us into a connection with God that will infuse our lives, our offices, and our world with meaning.
    With forty short chapters, this is not just a book to be read but instead is an invitation into an experience with God. Here's an opportunity to ponder new perspectives and see business as a chance to serve God by contributing to a better society.

    An essential new guide to navigating the turbulent macroeconomic landscape as you form your strategy. 
     
     
     
    When turmoil hits, executives and investors face notoriously unreliable macroeconomic forecasts, whipsawing data, and contradictory opinions. Are disruptions transient and ephemeral—or permanent and structural? False alarms are costly traps, but so are true structural changes that go undetected. Leaders must also assess the doom-laden public macroeconomic discourse, which habitually presents worst-case scenarios as foregone conclusions. 
     
     
     
    How can executives avoid these traps and make better strategic decisions? In this incisive, perspective-shifting book, BCG global chief economist Philipp Carlsson-Szlezak and senior economist Paul Swartz provide a fresh and accessible way to analyze and understand the macroeconomy—what they call "regime analysis"—that pushes beyond conventional model-based prediction to emphasize structural context and judgment. Focusing on what it takes for macroeconomic regimes to break, they apply their approach to key risks in the real economy, financial structures, and geopolitical arrangements to help senior executives and investors assess the true risks of their economic context and to build their capacity to respond to changing conditions more effectively.

    Video Marketing Lead: Essential Guide for Beginners on Video Marketing and Social Media, Discover the Secrets to Using Videos to Reach Massive AudienceVideo content has been proven to be the most effective of the majority of other forms of online content. When watching a video, customers are more likely to remember the video than they are to remember written content or an image, for example. Because of this, marketing videos tend to have a much bigger impact on potential new customers as opposed to a marketing banner, for example.Video can be an extremely powerful medium when it comes to connecting with and communicating with your audience. Many businesses have found that the use of video allows them to better present their brand ‘voice’ and image in a way that customers will be able to relate to personally.One of the most popular types of video content is marketing content, where you will come up with a short movie that convinces customers to express interest in your brand. Some marketing videos may focus on the brand as a whole, whilst others may focus on a particular product or service. You may use actors, animations, or something else in order to put together a marketing video.Every business which has an online presence should use video content in some form or another. With video now being more and more accessible, even the smallest of businesses with the tightest of budgets can afford to use video content to some extent, even if it is just Snapchat stories or Facebook Live videos.If you’re not yet using video content for your marketing strategy, you should definitely change things starting now because even the smallest of businesses are benefiting from it now.

And how did a bank that had been named ‘one of the best-run organizations in the world’ become so entwined with one of the most barbaric groups of gangsters on the planet?Too Big to Jail is an extraordinary story, brilliantly told by writer, commentator and former editor of The Independent, Chris Blackhurst, that starts in Hong Kong and ranges across London, Washington, the Cayman Islands and Mexico.It brings together an extraordinary cast of politicians, bankers, drug dealers, FBI officers and whistle-blowers, and asks what price does greed have?
