  “A thoughtful and fresh perspective on life’s compassionate journey to success. Irrational Kindness is powerful, provocative, and palatable.” —Linda Cash, former Vice President, Quality and New Model Launch Program at Ford Motor Company This work from a fast food entrepreneur and rare triple-franchisee Kevin Williams was written as part-employee handbook, part-operating manual for life. Irrational Kindness flips traditional wisdom on its head and gives a different lens through which to look at life. Often the idea of being irrational is smeared with negative connotations. It can sound illogical, senseless, unjustifiable, or groundless. It may even represent ludicrous and mad behavior! But Kevin Williams argues that being irrational can be just the opposite. And it is the most positive, inspiring, and empowering way to be. Being irrational has to do with thinking outside the box—way outside. It has to do with viewing life as a journey and still being willing to reverse the route, shake things up, or flip the map upside down. Why? Not just to be different, but to make a difference.Irrational Kindness can serve as a harmonious reminder that one’s hopes and dreams do not have to be derailed—not by their fears, their pasts, or by people who make them feel like they have to know everything to be successful, or even just to get started. Throughout its pages, Kevin provides the inspiration everyone needs to favor understanding over being understood and prioritize kindness—toward themselves as well as others—over everything.“This book is a needed and timely reminder to pause and give Kindness a platform to change the world around you.” —Princess Moon, Podcast Artist & Encourager of People

  More Than Just Work -...

  “A great stimulus for both thought and action.” Sir Mick Davis, Former CEO, Xstrata 
  “Read this book if you’re serious about creating high-performance organisations. David’s authority on the subject stems both from his experience and knowledge.” Sanjeev Gupta, TOC-ICO Lifetime Achievement Award Winner 
  Everyone has the right to be well managed. 
  And it is possible to be “just” at work—to treat others as you would be treated. 
  These are radical propositions. When you live by them, the people you lead through your management hierarchy understand the context of the work they’re doing. They feel connected to the overall purpose of the enterprise and are aligned to its vision and values. They work to arrive rather than arrive to work. They are empowered with the requisite authority over the resources they need to acquit all of that for which you hold them accountable. 
  You know what you have called for is both reasonable and possible, given the human and material resources you place at their disposal. Your people have a deep sense of the significance of what they are doing and experience the world as a better place for their being in it. 
  More Than Just Work will show you how to give your people and organisation this sense of worth and purpose while improving productivity and business outcomes.
