But some leaders have parleyed the moment into sustaining fortune and success. What makes the difference? Viral Leadership - the ability to translate the power of now into something that creates lasting transformation in business.  
 
The authors of this audiobook share personal experiences and insights that have propelled them to long-term success and share enlightening stories from the world of business to inspire you to take the lead in any situation. The ideas in this audiobook are actionable, and the stories are peppered with insights for action that can bring leadership to every level of an organization.
 
Viral Leadership is lasting and creates a legacy of related ideas, projects, and solutions. These innovative ideas are sustainable and can even transform far beyond their original purpose. In this audiobook, you will master the actionable strategies in the four quadrants of viral leadership and harness the power of now to create lasting change. 
 
There are two distinct themes you are going to notice throughout this audiobook. First, that business is perhaps one of the most magnificent creations of all time. And second, that effective leadership is viral in nature. Viral Leadership ignites others, it creates innovation, and it continues to build upon itself. It creates a culture of engagement, not just among the executive, but at every level.
 
This audiobook has been endorsed by some of the top CEOs of our time, and the ideas in this audiobook have been used by companies across America through trainings and keynote speeches. 
 
Viral Leadership is your pathway to seizing the moment and potentially impacting billions of people with something that changes every aspect of life. Viral leadership is important because it produces true freedom. It frees a leader from being the sole source of power and from being reliant on their own limited resources.
 
The biggest takeaway is the value of connection. It's one thing to lead; it's another thing for your leadership to go viral! You will discover how to inspire others to share your message as you listen to this audiobook.
 
Are you ready to seize this moment? To go to the next level? Are you ready to lead others, innovate ideas, and make your mark in either a new business or well-established business? Then this is the guidebook for you and your leadership team.

Velentium's cofounder Dan Purvis attributes their extraordinary success to their decade-in-the-making company culture, which buoyed them in the face of an unforeseeable crisis. In 28 Days to Save the World, he lays out how to harness the power of organizational culture to prepare your small business to weather any challenges ahead. Every quarter, more than 30 million small-business entrepreneurs face innumerable familiar crises that can spell their doom.

    The Human Brand - How We Relate...

    Why do people go out of their way to patronize some businesses while avoiding or even despising others? What drives loyalty to companies and brands? 
Customers everywhere describe their interactions with companies in a deeply personal way—we hate our banks, love our smartphones, and think the cable company is out to get us. What’s actually going on in our brains when we make these judgments? Customer loyalty expert Chris Malone and top social psychologist Susan Fiske discovered that our perceptions arise from spontaneous judgments on warmth and competence, the same two factors that also determine our impressions of people. 
We see companies and brands—such as Hershey’s, Domino’s, Lululemon, Zappos, Amazon, Chobani, Sprint—the same way we automatically perceive, judge, and behave toward one another. As a result, to achieve sustained success in the future, companies must forge genuine relationships with customers that reflect warmth, competence, and worthy intentions. And as customers, we have a right to expect relational accountability from the companies and brands we support. 
Drawing from original research, and evaluating over 45 companies over the course of 10 separate studies, The Human Brand is essential reading for understanding how and why we make the choices we do, as well as what it takes for companies and brands to earn and keep our loyalty in the digital age.
