  From profiles and interviews with the world's leading venture capitalists and high-profile coaches of business founders, A Dozen Lessons distills a set of bedrock methods for approaching business questions and creating value. The veteran business writer Tren Griffin takes the listener through the investment philosophies of VC luminaries such as Bill Gurley of Benchmark Capital, Marc Andreesen and Ben Horowitz of Andreesen Horowitz, and Jenny Lee of GGV Capital to draw out a set of guiding principles that successful businesses follow. 
  With insight and verve, Griffin argues that venture capital is, at a fundamental level, a service business that depends hugely on "human factors." Griffin suggests that, among a number of common features, these investors succeeded because of their sense of hustle, keen judgment, hard work, and good luck. But most of all, they share a deep love of building businesses that goes beyond financial considerations. Griffin reminds us that success is a multidimensional phenomenon requiring talented people, customer traction, productive partnerships, and brand value. These features amplify one another, with incremental success attracting more attention, talent, and investment.

  Culture Shift - A Practical...

  Today, stakeholder consideration focuses as much on an organisation's culture as it does on the bottom line — employees want to work for a company that has clear values and an engaging environment; customers and clients want to know they’re supporting a worthwhile brand; and investors increasingly look to back socially responsible companies with good organisational health. Yet internally, culture is too often still regarded as an add-on, a one-off moment of focus or a distraction from the real day to day business. And when it is given that real focus, the approaches adopted to manage it can prove costly and campaign-like, leading to only temporary emphasis and shift.Using her extensive experience, Kirsty Bashforth outlines exactly what it takes to tackle the topic of culture in an organisation. The audiobook explores the questions to ask, who to involve and what it takes for the person leading the work to fulfil their role. In this practical guide, Bashforth outlines how to recognise the culture you have today, explore the culture you need and communicate those expectations to a number of stakeholders; implement new, lasting habits in the workforce; effectively measure and track organisational culture; as well as deal with pushback from decision makers when, as time passes, the planned culture shift risks falling lower on their agenda.Culture Shift is about how to do things differently. It shows how to ensure culture change, using your own resources, and how to put culture permanently at the core of running the business.

  The Love Jones Cohort - Single...

  Drawing from stratification economics, intersectionality, and respectability politics, The Love Jones Cohort centers on the voices and lifestyles of members of the Black middle class who are single and living alone (SALA). While much has been written about both the Black middle class and the rise of singlehood, this book represents a first foray into bridging these two concepts. In studying these intersections, The Love Jones Cohort provides a more nuanced understanding of how race, gender, and class, coupled with social structures, shape five central lifestyle factors of Black middle-class adults who are SALA. The book explores how these Black adults define family and friends and decide on whether and how to pursue romantic relationships, articulate the ebbs and flows of being Black and middle class, select where to live and why, accumulate and disseminate wealth, and maintain overall health, well-being, and coping mechanisms.

  Do you want to lead like a business professional—or a Neanderthal? This book breaks our millennia-old leadership mold to provide the skills for real, lasting success in today's business worldFor too long, humans have been following others based largely on that person's sense of physical strength, appearance, and dominance. It's a model that dates back to the Neanderthals and which, incredibly, we continue to apply—consciously or not.The Power of Evolved Leadership establishes a new standard for leadership. It shifts you away from a leadership profile of power, command, and control to move your toward the nuance of motivation, inspiration, and, most critically, the shedding of "ego." The author bases his perspective and methods on close studies and personal interviews of many of today's most successful leaders.
