Stephanie Bown

Together is better, but only if you turn up and lean in. 
High performing teams are teams in synergy - where the whole is greater than the sum 
of its parts. 
This is especially important for directors and leadership teams who face unprecedented 
market dynamics. Their individual and organisational success depends on their capacity 
to form bonds of trust that allow them to show up, have courage, welcome open dissent, 
and explore new solutions to adaptive challenges. 
In this book, high performance leadership coach Stephanie Bown explores team synergy 
as the intersection between independent thinking and collective capacity with the goal 
of amplifying the potential for great people to come together to achieve amazing things.

Napoleon's Europe - Empire and...

Nova Ashford

Napoleon Bonaparte, one of the most influential figures in world history, rose from modest beginnings to become the emperor of France and the master of much of Europe. Born on August 15, 1769, on the island of Corsica, Napoleon came from a relatively modest family. His father, a lawyer, was part of the minor nobility, but the family’s wealth was limited. Despite these humble origins, Napoleon's extraordinary ambition, sharp intellect, and relentless drive would propel him into the center of European politics, shaping the future of the continent.
Napoleon’s early life was marked by education at military academies, where his talent for strategy and leadership quickly became apparent. At the age of 16, he was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the French army. His rise through the ranks coincided with the turmoil of the French Revolution, which fundamentally altered France and its political landscape. In 1789, the French Revolution erupted, dismantling the monarchy and challenging traditional structures of power. It was in this chaotic period that Napoleon saw his opportunity.
During the Revolution, Napoleon initially made his name through his military prowess, especially during the Italian Campaign in the late 1790s. His innovative tactics and leadership were crucial in securing French victories against Austria and its allies. These victories not only increased Napoleon’s reputation but also solidified his status as one of France’s most brilliant generals. By 1799, France was embroiled in political instability, and the government—the Directory—was weakened by corruption and poor leadership. Amid this instability, Napoleon seized the moment to take control.
