Summary

It's time to make money and give a damn  
 You give a damn, right?  
 You  want  your money to do good, but your pension is riddled with oil and defense companies. Besides, investing is a pain in the ass. It's tedious, and most sustainable and responsible investing books are as much fun as a root canal. You're fighting the urge to bury your head in the sand. What to do?  
 There is a better way.  
 Invest Like You Give a Damn  is a different kind of investment book. It tells real life stories of people just like you. People who give a damn but who have stomped the devil of inertia and chosen to align their money with their values. Coverage includes:  Why you need to give a damn about your investments  Engaging investor stories to guide financial planning and investment decisions  A ground-breaking financial and socially responsible investing asset allocation tool for profit and sustainability impact maximization  Money makeover profiles  How-to investing from one-click to deep-dive portfolio building  
 Authored by a leading socially responsible investing expert and replete with humor and irreverence,  Invest Like You Give a Damn  is for everyone from college graduates waiting tables, to mid-life generation Xers, to baby boomers who want to live their ideals.  
 Get it, read it, give a damn!

    POWERFUL LEADERSHIP LESSONS FROM A TRAILBLAZING FEMALE COLONEL IN THE U.S. ARMY
    
     
    When Jill Morgenthaler arrived at boot camp in 1975 as part of the inaugural class of women in the Army, she was one of 83 female cadets . . . on a base of 50,000 men. So she knows a thing or two about conquering obstacles.
    
     
    In The Courage to Take Command, Colonel Morgenthaler provides invaluable leadership lessons drawn from her three decades of military service--from her first days in ROTC to combat in some of the world's most dangerous war zones. Ironically, the military taught her that leadership isn’t about "command and control." Rather, it requires a fine balance of reason and emotion, distance and familiarity, hard and soft power. Learn how to lead your team to success by:
    
     Being true to your vision--but being open to new ideas
    
    Tackling obstacles head-on--but using finesse to arrive at solutions
    
    Focusing on the mission--while protecting your people
    
    Projecting strong leadership presence--but serving every member of your team, especially the weakest and most vulnerable
    
    Maintaining team spirit--but refusing to tolerate mediocrity
    
    Accepting and embracing your fears--but never letting them control you
    
    Always having a plan--but also trusting your gut
    
    Expressing a healthy self-confidence--with a side of humility
    
    
    
     
    It took both a spine of steel and a smart sense of people for Morgenthaler to get where she did. Now she draws on the wisdom garnered from her experience to help you develop an authentic brand of leadership and succeed at all levels of any organization.
    
     
    The Courage to Take Command provides the strategies and tactics you need to follow through with your leadership vision, inspire your team, and execute your mission-even when the odds may seem overwhelming.
