Summary

“Offers savvy wisdom and actionable advice from the trenches by entrepreneurs who have lived it all. Great read and inspirational as well.”—Heidi Roizen, venture capitalist, Stanford University lecturer“This is what I want for entrepreneurs, especially for women: to believe in themselves, to dream bigger, reach higher, and to achieve success beyond their wildest expectations.”—Kay Koplovitz  Been There, Run That is an anthology of blog posts by thought leaders in technology, media, e-commerce and life sciences, curated by Kay Koplovitz, founder of USA Network and chairman of Springboard Enterprises. In 2000, Koplovitz co-founded Springboard as an accelerator for an expert network of women entrepreneurs. In their first six months, Springboard companies raised over $165 million in total funding, and nearly $200 million in their first year. Now, fifteen years later, companies in the Springboard portfolio have raised over $6.5 billion and have had positive liquidity events for investors, including high-value acquisition and IPOs. Been There, Run That offers insights from dozens of Springboard alumnae and advisors on starting up, raising capital, fostering human capital, and setting company culture, an entrepreneurial tool chest. For early-stage founders and aspiring entrepreneurs, seasoned business owners, and serial entrepreneurs who want tips on crowdfunding and new technologies, readers will find value in real-life advice from those who have truly “been there, run that.” “A treasure chest of wisdom, common sense that will hopefully become more common as more come to understand it. Take your time reading this one, the good ideas are priceless and they appear on just about every single page.”—Seth Godin, New York Times bestselling author and entrepreneur

    ‘Managing Cybersecurity Risk is a comprehensive and engrossing guide for organizations of any size’ Infosecurity Magazine 
    Everything you need to know to protect from and react to a cyber attack  
    Cybersecurity risk is an increasingly key topic to all those engaged in business and commerce. Widely reported and increasing incidents of cyber invasion have contributed to the growing realisation that this is an area all businesses should understand, be prepared for and know how to react when attacks occur. 
    While larger corporates now pay close attention to defending themselves against cybersecurity infringement, small to medium businesses remain largely unaware of the scale and range of threats to their organisations. 
    The aim of Managing Cybersecurity Risk is to provide a better understanding of the extent and scale of the potential damage that breaches of cybersecurity could cause their businesses and to guide senior management in the selection of the appropriate IT strategies, tools, training and staffing necessary for prevention, protection and response. 
    Foreword by Baroness Pauline Neville-Jones, Chair of the Advisory Panel on Cyber Security and contributors include Don Randall, former Head of Security and CISO, the Bank of England, Ray Romero, Senior Assistant Director, Division of Information Technology at the Federal Reserve Board and Chris Gibson, Director of CERT-UK.

    IT'S TIME FOR AN ECONOMIC EVOLUTION. 
    The evidence is all around us: Humans are squandering natural resources and destroying the environment. There is no real debate about climate change. And with an ever-widening wealth gap, inequality is destabilizing many regions and worsening famine, disease, and civil unrest. 
    We must change, fast - and yet we hesitate. 
    Moneyless Society: The Next Economic Evolution explores how capitalism throttles Earth's capacity to sustain life and undermines our deep longing to live in peace and prosperity. Fortunately, it also provides a blueprint to innovative thinking and new structures to replace our outmoded monetary system. In short, Moneyless Society illuminates just how much our lives and those of future generations could improve with a new kind of freedom: freedom from money. 
    We are at a crossroads: we can choose abundance, community, and prosperity, or we can continue down the path toward collapse. The choice is ours.

    Finding the right talent is hard. Finding the right talent that will prosper and stay is even harder. Business growth is being stifled and fields of office cubicles remain empty due to the fierce competition for talent today with job openings having recently surged to a record high: 6.55 million. 
    Evergreen Talent will show you how to attract, find, and keep employees for the long-term. What many organization leaders fail to understand is that you can't simply transplant a competitor's talent strategy and achieve the same results - just as you can't take plants suited to a warm climate and expect them to thrive in chillier locales. The conditions are too different. But a company that takes the time to examine its own environment, select talent accordingly, and nurture its people will stand tall, regardless of economic conditions. 
    In Evergreen Talent, Roberta Chinsky Matuson challenges leaders to think differently about their approach to growing a sustainable workforce - one that will regenerate regularly, with minimal effort on their part. The audiobook is filled with pragmatic advice, case studies, and best practices from companies that have done this successfully. Also included are tools to help listeners assess their workplace environment and populate their organization with talent that will continue to grow, year after year.
