Summary

Unleash Commitment, Initiative, and InnovationIn their decades of leading groups all over the world, Marvin Weisbord and Sandra Janoff discovered they could get superior results by creating an unconventional approach to leadership. Leaders still need to get everyone aligned around the same goals. But to maximize energy, creativity, and productivity, they gain more by focusing on structure rather than behavior, enabling people to take responsibility and manage themselves. Lead More, Control Less describes eight essential skills for establishing a culture of autonomy and self-leadership. Using examples and case studies, Weisbord and Janoff describe how leaders can share responsibility, defuse group conflicts, show everyone the big picture, and more. With this approach, leaders truly gain more control by giving it up.

    Being the author of a published book unquestionably establishes authority, and today's non-fiction books might easily be referred to as the new business cards. The reason for being an author in the modern world is no longer about earning royalties but about establishing your brand by positioning you as an expert in your field. 
This step-by-step guide shows how to write your book and self-publish it as a trade paperback at little-to-no cost to you using modern print-on-demand technology where there is no minimum order requirement. With your author's cost of a paperback book being about the same as that of a promotional giveaway, you can use your book as the ultimate business card by giving copies to prospective clients. 
If you would rather have other people do some or all of the work in the production of your book, the chapter on outsourcing explains how and provides estimates on what each step would cost. 
There is also a section on how to easily convert your book to an e-book and distribute it across multiple platforms.

    Originally published by the Norwegian-American economist Thorstein Veblen while he was a professor at the University of Chicago in 1898, the Theory of the Leisure Class is considered one of the great works of economics as well as the first detailed critique of consumerism. In the book, Veblen argues that economic life is driven not by notions of utility, but by social vestiges from pre-historic times.
