  Do you feel confident at work? Are there times when you lack confidence but can’t show it?

In contrast, this book provides an evidence-based code that outlines the steps we can all take to positively shift our confidence and that of our teams. Confident Leaders by Design is for leaders at all levels looking for a rigorous yet accessible approach to confidence development. Through research and fascinating anecdotes it reveals the surprising secrets to supercharging leadership potential through confidence creation. 
   
  Alongside the theory, listeners will practically locate their confidence sweet spot and explore activities like sludge audits, confidence curves, and self-efficacy circles which will help them to immediately start growing confidence in themselves and their teams.

  Roman Gods and Legends -...

  Mythology was at the heart of ancient Roman culture, shaping the way people understood the world, their history, and even their daily lives. Roman myths were more than just entertaining stories; they provided a framework for religious practices, reinforced social hierarchies, and legitimized political authority. From grand temples dedicated to Jupiter to household shrines honoring protective spirits, mythology was deeply embedded in Roman society. These myths explained the origins of Rome, the will of the gods, and the moral expectations placed upon its people.  
    
  One of the most fascinating aspects of Roman mythology is its connection to Greek mythology. The Romans borrowed heavily from the Greeks, adapting their gods, myths, and religious traditions to fit their own culture. Jupiter became the Roman equivalent of Zeus, Venus took the place of Aphrodite, and Neptune mirrored Poseidon. Yet, Roman mythology was not simply a copy of Greek traditions—it evolved to reflect Rome’s unique values, including its emphasis on duty, discipline, and the power of the state. Roman gods were deeply tied to civic life, with religious festivals and rituals reinforcing the unity and strength of the empire.  
    
  As Rome expanded, so did its pantheon. Over time, new deities were integrated from conquered cultures, blending native Italian, Etruscan, and foreign influences into Roman religious beliefs. This constant evolution reflected the empire’s adaptability and its ability to absorb and reshape traditions to maintain social cohesion. The role of mythology also shifted, particularly as emperors began to position themselves as semi-divine figures, further intertwining politics with religion. These myths were not just ancient relics but living traditions that reinforced Rome’s identity and dominance.

  In the Socrates Meets series, Peter Kreeft revives the classic method of bringing philosophy to life through dialogue. In eight innovative volumes, he uncovers the principles, assumptions, and sometimes dangerous conclusions of some of history’s most influential minds.  Each dialogue imagines a purgatory where we can listen in on conversations between Socrates and the great thinkers who, centuries later, picked up the philosopher’s torch. Each conversation investigates one of the philosopher’s key works, a short, readable classic that raises central questions both for philosophy and for life. In this volume, Socrates cross-examines Karl Marx, the father of communism and author of The Communist Manifesto, exploring freedom and oppression, history and change, property, education, women, and the family.
