  BOOM! - Leadership that Breaks...

  A modern organization can’t survive without innovation. 
  It happens all the time: Vibrant and cutting-edge companies get comfortable — and complacent. They lose touch with their innovative roots. Their dynamic culture slips away. Bureaucracy takes over. Progress slows. Then stops. 
  It’s leadership’s job to set things back on course. 
  Unfortunately, most leaders don’t know how. They’ve been taught outdated strategies. Strategies that don’t move the needle. Strategies that don’t work in this dynamic day and age. 
  So, despite everyone’s best intentions, nothing changes. 
  The solution: an innovation playbook for the modern era. 
  When Brigadier General John “Dragon” Teichert took command of Edwards Air Force Base in 2018, it was choked by bureaucracy and complacency. 
  He applied a unique and unorthodox strategy to launch an innovation movement and unleash the individual genius of the base’s 11,000 Airmen. 
  The result? Edwards became the most innovative Air Force Base on the planet, dwarfing the innovation activity of the rest of the Air Force combined. 
  In this book, he reveals exactly how he did it. 
  Written by a leader for leaders, BOOM! is jam-packed with fascinating aviation analogies, little-known stories of Air Force hero Chuck Yeager, intriguing tales from the highest visibility base on the planet, and stories of internationally impactful activities in war-torn Iraq. 
  BOOM! reveals an innovation roadmap that transcends jet planes and rockets – a process that can work for any leader, at any level, in any industry, who wants to move their mission forward and deliver outstanding results.

  All too often hard working people with good jobs are struggling to get by. 
  These are the same people who are forced to take stressful promotions at work and spend a couple hours commuting each day. They come home to the house they think they own, but they are really just a slave to the mortgage company. 
  These “good citizens” are victims of an engineered system to keep them investing in 401Ks, mutual funds, and stocks. 
  This financial system is setup where the insiders are stealing the majority of your returns (and you take all the risk). 
  The truth is the wealth who are investing in alternative assets and operating off a different financial framework and not using these traditional options from a financial planner, commission-based broker, or the retail 401k/mutual fund/stock route. 
  Lane Kawaoka has been investing in real estate for over a decade and now controls 7,500+ units (1$ Billion plus in assets). Lane is responsible for finding, analyzing, and marketing real estate investment opportunities. 
  It's likely not the journey you’d expect, and it's also more simple than you’d expect. Welcome to the Journey to Simple Passive Cashflow!

  The Big Change - America...

  During the first fifty years of the twentieth century, the United States saw two world wars, a devastating economic depression, and more social, political, and economic changes than in any other five-decade period before. Frederick Lewis Allen, former editor of Harper's Magazine, recounts these years—spanning World War I, the Progressive Era, the Great Depression, World War II, and the early Cold War—in vivid detail, from the fashions and customs of the times to major events that changed the course of history. 
   
   
    
  Politically, the United States grew into its own as a global superpower during these years, even as domestic developments altered the everyday lives of its citizens. The introduction of the automobile, mass production, and organized labor changed the way Americans lived and worked, while innovations like penicillin and government regulation of food safety contributed to an increase in average life expectancy from forty-nine years in 1900 to sixty-eight years in 1950. With the development of a strong, centralized government, a thriving middle class, and widespread economic prosperity, the nation emerged from the Second World War transformed in virtually every way. 
   
   
    
  Richly informative, The Big Change is an indispensable volume charting the many changes that ushered in our contemporary age.

  Through a straightforward, science-based approach, Leading for Wellness: How to Create a Team Culture Where Everyone Thrives explains the steps to become a Generator—the type of leader who people want to work for and organizations want to hire—by leading in a way that fosters trust and positive connections with employees. This book is based on two in-depth studies conducted by the authors, where they found that the keys to employee satisfaction, wellbeing, retention, and productivity were found in the behavior of leaders and the environment those leaders cultivated. 
   
   
   
  Written by experienced industrial/organizational psychologists Dr. Patricia Grabarek and Dr. Katina Sawyer and packed with real-life stories to add context, this book explores topics including addressing the mismatch in the definition of wellness between employees and employers; focusing on the tone leaders set at work, as opposed to time they spend at work; and crafting work to support life, instead of the other way around, to support and respond to employees' unique needs. 
   
   
    
  At a time when employee morale has never been lower, Leading for Wellness is an essential listen for current and aspiring business leaders and managers seeking exclusive data-based insights on how to solve one of the most pressing problems in business today.
