  This is a very timely study of Russia's development into a global energy power from the Russian Revolution to the present day. Beginning in the late nineteenth century, Russia emerged not only as a key producer but also as one of the world's leading exporters of oil. Russia's transformation into a modern global power was connected to its ability to make use of its vast natural resources and produce energy in increasing quantities. While the development of Russia's energy industry went hand in hand with a profound sociopolitical and economic transformation, the book also tells the story of international cooperation and competition, transnational exchanges, and transborder interdependencies. Through energy exports, Russia shaped global energy flows and connections; at the same time, the growth of international trade impacted the views and decisions of Russian leaders, affecting the fabric of the country's foreign relations and, ultimately, the course of Russian history.

  In a world full of leaders who put their egos first, and crave power and the spotlight, here is a story about a leader who did exactly the opposite the autocratic arena of policing.  This is a story about Allan Sicard, a leader who empowered others to lead.  Allan Sicard was a New South Wales Police Officer for 40 years and Police Commander for the last 15 years of that career.  During this time, he was renowned for creating a workplace where people did their best working together in some of the most challenging crises Australia has ever seen including the Mosman Collar Bomb in 2011 and the first two hours of the Lindt Cafe Seige in 2014.  This is a different book about leadership.  Leadership where mistakes are made.  Leadership where mistakes are learnt from.  Over a period, Allan Sicard developed a leadership style that created a workplace and a community where people do their best because they know they are trusted, included, supported, and cared for.  
  "All I can say is wow.  What a read.  Every chapter really is a story to identify a leadership learning."  Rebecca Pinkstone, CEO Homes NSW 
  "His legacy and this book is sure to inspire generations to come."  Alex Greenwich, MP, Member for Sydney 
  "I especially enjoyed your humility and candour.  We learn from our mistakes. More than anything I enjoyed the compassion that comes through your stories. Compassion and leadership can go together despite traditional authoritarian styles. Great message." Andrew Colvin, APM, Former Australian Federal Police Commissioner

  Marc Wilson is not giving up. He is determined to turn around the struggling family company and keep it, despite his father's decision to sell. The problem is that they are late on more and more projects and their customers won't tolerate it anymore. Marc is looking everywhere for a solution, when in one of his MBA classes he comes across a unique approach that views operations in terms of flow. 
   
   
   
  The concept of flow is straightforward. It's easy to visualize the stream of projects going through the system and understand that if something clogs the flow, the projects pile up; the lead time gets longer, and as a result the reliability of due dates suffers. What is not so easy is to uncover the specific obstacles that obstruct the flow and figure out how to remove them. 
   
   
   
  Whether you're a manager in engineering, IT, service, or sales, this book will help you gain much better predictability and significantly improve your delivery.
