Sinossi

Leadership is not a destination. Leadership is an odyssey.
A voyage of discovery, marked by changes of fortune and circumstances, informed by successes and failures.
Defined by how you behaved and who you have become.
The Upside of Being Myself and Other Leadership Stories is a unique opportunity to catch a breath, step back, and take a long, hard, reflective look at who you are as a leader and where your odyssey will take you.
Powered by experience, informed by the reality of operating in today's harsh realities, and leveraging the insights gained from many leadership victories and defeats, each essay creates an opportunity for reflection, introspection and personal growth.
The book spans almost every aspect of leadership, including the journey towards that mythical corner office, the agility and flexibility of styles required for sustained success, the art of crisp, concise communication and the need for an internal compass to guide you on your journey.
Ian Russell draws on his 30 years of leadership experience from around the world, using his irreverent, light-hearted but thought-provoking prose to land key leadership messages. Further diverse and powerful leadership insights come from a number of contributing writers on politics, large corporate life, the public sector and entrepreneurial start-ups.
The Upside of Being Myself and Other Leadership Stories is an investment of your time into your leadership odyssey. This is not an opportunity you can pass by. So pick up a copy, settle down and enjoy.

    Malaysia is no easy country to analyse, or even to understand. With so many narratives about the country, its peoples, and its histories, the noise generated — both online and off — can be as deafening as that of any rave party. 
     
    Since 2019, Malaysians have lived through a unique period in the country’s history: Amid the Covid pandemic and its many challenges, Malaysia experienced three prime minister changes, and countless other political dramas and plot twists. 
     
    Signals in the Noise is not just a book on politics, though. Moving with ease between different sociopolitical and socioeconomic discourses, this collection of Ooi Kee Beng’s columns and commentaries — published between 2019 and 2023 — showcases more than ever his talent as a historian and philosopher, alongside his prowess as a political scientist. 
     
    This wide-ranging collection is a must-read beginner's guide to Malaysian politics. It also highlights Ooi’s love for his hometown of Penang, his concern for the environment, and how the arts define a society and its perceptions of the world.

    It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by money—bewildered by the complexities of building wealth and frustrated by the persistent sense that no matter how much we earn, something crucial feels missing. But what if the key to financial freedom isn’t found in striving for more but in redefining what “enough” truly means? Financial growth expert Elizabeth Husserl’s The Power of Enough invites you to rethink your relationship with money, offering a groundbreaking blueprint that replaces chasing financial success with cultivating a life of meaning, balance, and fulfillment. 
    This transformative guide reveals how our attitudes toward money shape our well-being, illuminating the ways that financial systems block us from achieving true contentment. Elizabeth helps us embrace wealth as a way of being that is grounded in purpose and our core values rather than something to endlessly accumulate. 
    Through practical exercises, you’ll learn to: 
    • uncover your financial DNA, revealing the inherited beliefs, behaviors, and habits that shape your financial decisions 
    • create a wealth mandala to redefine your relationship with money 
    • design a life that honors your whole self, bringing vitality, purpose, and lasting joy 
    With The Power of Enough, you’ll have the tools to break free from the cycle of endless striving and create a life that’s truly rich—in every sense of the word. 
    “A powerfully transformative view of the role money plays in a life worth living.”—Jodi Wellman, author of You Only Die Once

    *A WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER!* 
    Read the book that has inspired thousands of people around the world to pursue their Plan A—making bold career moves, launching dream businesses, fleeing toxic relationships, and silencing the naysayers. 
    Feel like you’re always settling for Plan B? Have big goals but something—or someone—is holding you back?  
    There is a counterintuitive but effective strategy used throughout recorded history to overcome impossible odds and achieve breakout success: Eliminate any thoughts of retreat. 
    In Burn the Boats, you’ll learn:How to break patterns that undermine total commitment (such as imposter syndrome, anxiety, and toxic leadership habits)How science proves that a perfectly crafted plan B saps motivation and diminishes successful outcomes How to achieve financial independence by leveraging the stream of data you consume in your daily life, known as ‘proprietary insights’How to harness the personal power of your pain and shame to turn flaws into your superpowerHow dozens of the people you admire first burned their own boats before becoming household names 
     
    In this gripping rags-to-riches instant classic, Matt Higgins provides the blueprint he used to go from a desperate sixteen-year-old high school dropout caring for his sick mother in Queens, New York, to a shark on Shark Tank. Now a serial entrepreneur with a billion-dollar portfolio of some of America’s most beloved brands, Higgins unpacks the burn-the-boats strategy with raw emotion and radical transparency. 
    Now translated into numerous languages worldwide, Burn the Boats is the definitive tome on the oldest life hack in history. From Sun Tzu to Tariq ibn Ziyad, the ancient Israelites to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky—when leaders want to motivate their troops for success, they self-sabotage their own retreat so all energy is directed on a singular objective. They burn their metaphorical boats that sow doubt; it’s win or perish, and their unshakable resolve propels them to victory. 
    But the clarity of crisis decision-making can also be harnessed in our everyday lives. Higgins draws upon extensive research, historical precedent, and dozens of firsthand case studies—from actress-turned-entrepreneur Scarlett Johansson to NFL Coach Rex Ryan—that prove merely contemplating Plan B diminishes the probability of ever achieving Plan A.   
    Written in the reassuring tone of a mentor and drawing upon Higgins’s experience as a teacher at Harvard Business School, Burn the Boats will carry you through any rough seas on the most exciting journey of your life.
