Why do some young companies become unicorns, while others don't? It's easy for scale-ups, giddy from early startup success, to get ahead of themselves and stumble. It's even easier to be slowed down by the many forces of resistance working against them: drag, inertia, friction, and waste. Drawing on a mastery of lean-based methods for achieving maximum effect with minimum means, private equity operators Matthew E. May and Pablo Dominguez provide listeners with a powerful framework of universally applicable principles that enable any company to effectively accelerate its ability to scale and grow. Called The Unicorn Model™ and built on five foundational principles, the authors deliver a compelling narrative of stories and experiences in an easy-to-remember mnemonic, S.C.A.L.E.: Strategic speed, Constant experimentation, Accelerated value, Lean process, and Esprit de corps. Drawn from the authors' successful track record in using S.C.A.L.E. with a wide variety of unicorn-level companies, What a Unicorn Knows offers a necessary guide for rapid but lasting growth.Show book

As a leader, you likely find yourself frustrated at times, wondering why employees don't meet expectations, peers are slow to act, or pressure from your boss falls unfairly on your shoulders. It's easy to point a finger at others and double down on getting results. But have you ever considered that the problem may not be them—it may be you? Through countless hours coaching executives, Muriel M. Wilkins has pinpointed the biggest reason behind these common leadership challenges: hidden blockers. These unconscious beliefs can block progress if leaders aren't aware of their existence, preventing leaders from seeing a situation clearly, solving problems effectively, and advancing their careers. Leadership Unblocked reveals seven beliefs that hold leaders back, from "I know I'm right" to "I need to be involved" to "I don't belong here." Combining powerful coaching conversations and research from the fields of neuroscience, leadership, and adult development theory, Wilkins offers a road map for identifying, unpacking, and breaking through these barriers. By using the tools in this book, you can finally cultivate the mindset to achieve your goals and become the leader you want to be.Show book
Escape common business myths to unleash game-changing productivity Written by Shingo Prize winner Jacob Stoller, Productivity Reimagined shows how most companies are constrained by deeply engrained myths that prevent employees from reaching their full productive potential, causing frustration, poor decisions, and disappointing results. Evidence is drawn from Toyota and dozens of other companies that have countered these myths to build strong collaborative cultures and achieve sustainable growth. Arguments are reinforced by the latest science on human behavior and systems theory and supported by more than sixty interviews from prominent CEOs, consultants, academics, executive directors, and EVPs in the context of today's pressing global issues, including labor shortage, income inequality, job-related stress, supply chain instability, and climate change. As companies face the new realities of the global economy, Productivity Reimagined is an essential resource for forward-thinking executives, managers, and business leaders looking to solve the productivity puzzle and empower their workforces to perform at their best.Show book
