Summary

It’s no good having a good idea if you cannot communicate it to someone else. John Simmons, in this stimulating and readable book, demonstrates how we can write and use words more creatively and persuasively in business today. From differentiating your company from another, to injecting life and vibrancy into your products and services, to writing everyday emails, this cult business book by the modern-day guru of business writing (now released as a new 21st anniversary edition) shows ways in which we can use words to gain competitive advantage in business life through “tone of voice”. 
 
 John Simmons’ method of writing powerfully for business is based on his “WE, ME, THEM and IT” model, which over the past 25 years has been adopted by tens of thousands of marketers and other professionals around of the world. Simmons argues that effective business writing is about learning to love writing and words, and bringing more of our real selves to working life.

    An inspiring true story that blends life, leadership, and lessons learned  Throughout most of his life, Ethan Spelman felt like he was never good enough. Despite his friendly demeanor and perceived success, he was haunted by his past, controlled by his fears, and consumed by emptiness and loneliness. But destiny – disguised as an ill-timed business trip – ultimately changed the trajectory of his life, and led him to discover and then champion the life-changing power of leadership done right.  By immersing himself in leadership principles and practices and infusing them into his own life story, Ethan discovers that leadership can transcend lives – especially his own. As he works to incorporate leadership into all aspects of his life, he unleashes the leader within – and finds the courage and strength to come to terms with his past, overcome his fears, leave the loneliness behind, and move forward with confidence, conviction, and hope.  If you believe that real leadership is much greater than the titles we hold, seek to find the light in your own darkness, or long to discover the leader within, you’ll be inspired by this candid true story interwoven with powerful leadership lessons that have helped the author transform his life – and may help unleash the leader in you.

    Companies today face an array of unprecedented challenges and disruptions. From technological advancements to global market shifts, the ability to not just survive but thrive in the face of such change is paramount. This book offers a pivotal guide for companies that seek to understand and implement to principles of “antifragility” – a concept that transcends traditional resilience and robustness, and offers a strategy for leveraging disruption for growth and innovation. The authors provide a clear, factual and analytical exploration of antifragility. Unlike resilience, which suggests bouncing back to a former state (post-disruption), antifragility involves using disruption as a catalyst for improvement, driving organizations to emerge stronger and more adaptable than before. The book further offers insights into how various companies navigated their way through crises and used these situations to their advantage.
