    If you want to be a successful leader in today’s business world, you need to think like an activist.  
    If you want to be a successful leader in today’s business world, you need to think like an activist. 
    This urgent and essential book shows how to do just that. The Activist Leader argues that the world needs a new kind of business leader, one that thinks differently about their role in today’s challenges. From climate change to inequality, the major crises facing society have become critical issues for business, and the world expects companies to step up. 
    This is a pragmatic book. Jon Miller and Lucy Parker show what it takes to do business in these challenging times, taking a close look at companies such as Apple, Mastercard, Nestle, Maersk, JP Morgan Chase and Walmart. 
    Most people feel powerless when they look at the problems facing the world – but if you’re a leader in a big business, you’re not powerless. Whether you’re a top executive or earlier in your working life, this book shows that thinking like an activist can have a transformative impact – for yourself, for your businesses, and for broader society. 
    In The Activist Leader, Lucy Parker presents a new paradigm for leadership, one that is rooted in activism and social responsibility. This autobiography is a beacon for those who aspire to lead with ethics and creativity in their careers. 
    For fans of Cal Newport (Slow Productivity), Michael Bhaskar (Curation), Richard P. Rumelt (Good Strategy/Bad Strategy), Eric Ries (The Lean Startup), and Richard Koch (The 80/20 Principle and 92 Other Powerful Laws of Nature).

    JFK, or John Fitzgerald Kennedy, was an American political leader who functioned as the 35th President of the US from 1961 till his assassination to the conclusion of his 3rd year in office. Kennedy was president throughout the height of the Cold War, and the majority of his time in office was spent handling the Soviet Union and Cuba. Prior to his presidency, Kennedy acted as a Democrat in both homes of Congress, representing Massachusetts. 
    Much controversy exists about the war in Vietnam and other aspects of the Cold War that John F. Kennedy dealt with. Many conspiracy theories exist about this assassination, and all of this has become a big part of the American history and culture in the 20th century. Personally, I think it would be wise to study this part of history a little, with its significant impact on worldwide events, coalitions, cease-fires, wars, and more.
