  We need effective leaders today more than ever before. In fact, the root cause behind failed businesses and failed governments is usually either a lack of leadership or the presence of destructive or ineffective leadership. In this collection of dissertations on topics relevant to effective leadership, you'll be challenged to think. Along the way, you'll learn how to discover and clarify your mission, vision, and values; learn how to handle difficult people and situations; improve the performance of your people and teams; and communicate with coworkers, customers, and colleagues. You'll also learn about the leadership continuum and its gradations and how to find the action, behavior, or decision that balances as best as possible benefits with costs. Balance is getting something just right. However, since the world is always changing, the sweet spot is always changing too. What was in balance yesterday may not be today. Like riding a bicycle, we constantly need to monitor our positions and make adjustments to compensate for curves and bumps in the road. Make sound decisions, build better teams, communicate more effectively, be appropriately flexible, and be appropriately strong, with the lessons, examples, and insights in Balanced Leadership.

  This isn’t your typical business book. Soul Venture sets out to dismantle the myths of the startup culture, revealing a world where 97% of startups fail. Even Jensen Huang, cofounder of the $3 trillion tech giant Nvidia, confessed he would never go through it again. So why do entrepreneurs keep lining up? Why do venture capitalists continue to encourage them? What exactly isn’t working?  
  Part memoir, part transformational guide, Soul Venture lays bare the myths, ambitions, and harsh realities of an irresistible culture with untenable odds. Through captivating interviews, revealing case studies, and his own odyssey of self-discovery, Gulati dives into the gritty and often unspoken truths of startup life - the blurred lines between business and personal, and the impact on relationships, self-worth, and beyond. 
  With hard-earned insights, Gulati poses the big questions:What drives your relentless pursuit of success?What should you do when things go sideways? Do you need a management consultant right now, or a shaman? Are you succumbing to Shark Tank Syndrome?When does passion become the problem?Are you built for what happens next? 
  Gulati’s boldest advice? Don’t start a startup. But if you do, Soul Venture is your essential guide.

  There’s no denying work has changed in the past couple of years. Potentially faster and more than in the previous five or ten years!The rise of remote work, work from home, work from anywhere, telework, work across different time zones and hybrid work (some people here/some there) continues to create change and challenges. What’s one of the best ways to respond and adapt to the changing world of work? It’s to consider not just the work itself … but the WAY it gets done. Consider:?? Do we really need everyone at the same meeting at the same time? (synchronous work)?? Could some people contribute prior to, or after the meeting or begin working on tasks outside of a meeting? (asynchronous work)A growing number of teams and businesses are learning and experiencing the value of deliberately working in sync / async ways. That is, some work is completed synchronously — at the same time with other people; and other elements of work completed asynchronously — at a time and in a way that suits them. ‘Sync Async : Making progress easier in the changing world of work’. In this book you'll read about:?? how, why and when to work in sync and async ways?? tools for creating your team’s sync async strategy?? ways to identify the type of work you prefer ?? techniques to work in more async ways?? how to make daily progress easier — get started on things that have stopped and accelerate things that have slowed. You don’t need to wait for a culture to change or for someone to give you the go ahead on this. You can start working better in both sync and async ways from today. There will always be too much to do and not enough time in which to do it. Putting practical sync async techniques to work can make your work easier … and the rest of life better.

  The Market and Other Orders

  In addition to his groundbreaking contributions to pure economic theory, F. A. Hayek also closely examined the ways in which the knowledge of many individual market participants could culminate in an overall order of economic activity. His attempts to come to terms with the “knowledge problem” thread through his career and comprise the writings collected in the fifteenth volume of the University of Chicago Press’s Collected Works of F. A. Hayek series.The Market and Other Orders brings together more than twenty works spanning almost forty years that consider this question. Consisting of speeches, essays, and lectures, including Hayek’s 1974 Nobel lecture, “The Pretense of Knowledge,” the works in this volume draw on a broad range of perspectives, including the philosophy of science, the physiology of the brain, legal theory, and political philosophy. Taking readers from Hayek’s early development of the idea of spontaneous order in economics through his integration of this insight into political theory and other disciplines, the book culminates with Hayek’s integration of his work on these topics into an overarching social theory that accounts for spontaneous order in the variety of complex systems that Hayek studied throughout his career.Edited by renowned Hayek scholar Bruce Caldwell, who also contributes a masterly introduction that provides biographical and historical context, The Market and Other Orders forms the definitive compilation of Hayek’s work on spontaneous order.
