  If you want to be a successful leader in today’s business world, you need to think like an activist.  
  If you want to be a successful leader in today’s business world, you need to think like an activist. 
  This urgent and essential book shows how to do just that. The Activist Leader argues that the world needs a new kind of business leader, one that thinks differently about their role in today’s challenges. From climate change to inequality, the major crises facing society have become critical issues for business, and the world expects companies to step up. 
  This is a pragmatic book. Jon Miller and Lucy Parker show what it takes to do business in these challenging times, taking a close look at companies such as Apple, Mastercard, Nestle, Maersk, JP Morgan Chase and Walmart. 
  Most people feel powerless when they look at the problems facing the world – but if you’re a leader in a big business, you’re not powerless. Whether you’re a top executive or earlier in your working life, this book shows that thinking like an activist can have a transformative impact – for yourself, for your businesses, and for broader society. 
  In The Activist Leader, Lucy Parker presents a new paradigm for leadership, one that is rooted in activism and social responsibility. This autobiography is a beacon for those who aspire to lead with ethics and creativity in their careers. 
  For fans of Cal Newport (Slow Productivity), Michael Bhaskar (Curation), Richard P. Rumelt (Good Strategy/Bad Strategy), Eric Ries (The Lean Startup), and Richard Koch (The 80/20 Principle and 92 Other Powerful Laws of Nature).

  Have you ever been told to do something crazy like “pulling your pants down and sliding on ice?” Do you know why you should always “name your cows?” What is the importance of “eggs, big macs, and whoppers?” In Give to Get to Give, Dorcey uses his trademark humor and decades in the financial planning to help readers understand some of the timeliest truths on investing.One of these truths is Dorcey’s steadfast belief that active investing always trumps passive investing. Going against the advice of many financial advisors, Dorcey pushes back on the idea that investors should always “wait it out” and ride the wave of every financial downturn. As he points out, many times people simply do not have the time to do so. Instead, he encourages investors to engage in the process and know where their investment is going and work with someone who takes an active interest their financial future.Dr. Randolph Dorcey’s advice comes from decades in the financial industry. He knows what he is talking about and doesn’t couch his statements behind a lot of technological jargon. Instead, he says what he means in a way that connects with everyday people.
