Paperback. Zustand: Good. Survived physical abuse. Witnessed community violence. Conquered the streets. Saved by education. This is Dr. Maysa Akbar's story. A story of overcoming Urban Trauma. It's easy to look down at urban communities and wonder why economic and social disparities still exist when so many people of color, despite facing severe adversity, have done better. They have broken the cycle. Yet there are those in urban communities who continue to be plagued by what Dr. Maysa Akbar has defined as Urban Trauma - a set of conditions that sustain modern day oppression. In Urban Trauma: A Legacy of Racism, Dr. Akbar makes the case that since the time of slavery, systemic trauma in our urban centers is a result of poverty, overcrowded housing, poor physical and mental health, despair, violence, crime, and drug abuse. Drawing from historical events, intergenerational biology, and psychology she expertly illustrates that not only is Urban Trauma real, but that by denying it's existence we deny our communities of color the chance to heal and break their cycle.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Ayn Rand was wrong. The form of shareholder capitalism that businesses have been practicing for years and that many business leaders have been taught is not only misguided, but it's also badly misaligned with what we know of human nature. It's even contrary to objective reality. While we spend nearly a third of our waking lives at work, many of us feel dissatisfied and disengaged in our jobs. Or worse, we're sleepwalking, doing only what we must to collect a paycheck. Wouldn't it be great to come to work excited to make a contribution and go home feeling fulfilled?In this groundbreaking book, Gavin Watson explores the principles of Conscious Capitalism, based on two decades of research in the fields of positive psychology, organizational psychology, and evolutionary biology. Conscious Capitalism rejects the toxic myth of neoliberal economics. In fact, a group of collaborative individuals will out-perform a group of selfish individuals every time. It is not selfishness but cooperative, generous, and altruistic behavior that is the basis of our success as a species, and the key to a high-performing business. Watson shows how the four principles of Conscious Capitalism create a culture of trust and caring that in turn leads to higher engagement and productivity. Conscious businesses maximize autonomy, foster intrinsically rewarding work, and encourage individuality and flexible leadership. We flourish when we bring our whole selves to work, and so do our companies.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Once upon a time, companies stayed out of social justice and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) situations. Today, customers and employees expect to be seen, heard, and valued. They expect businesses and their leaders to be transparent about DEI efforts, take a stand on social justice issues, and demonstrate how they're making the world a better place. Misalignment between what a company says and what it actually does destroys credibility and leads to a host of other consequences, including brand reputation damage, high attrition, difficulty attracting talent, lawsuits, boycotts, loss of market share, and more. DEI and social justice communications is a new and required skill set for communicators. The key to success is to embed them in your processes from the very beginning. We must acknowledge unconscious bias and learn to think and act beyond ourselves and our own limited experiences. This book helps organizations answer the why, what, when, and how to communicate DEI and social justice subjects. In the book, Stovall and Clark introduce the DEPTH model, a framework and practical tool to help companies craft DEI and social justice and communications aligned with their mission, vision, and values - consistently, proactively, and in ways that are powerful rather than performative.DEI touches every part of the organization beyond communications, from marketing to sales, human resources to technology. Social justice is no longer something that happens 'out there, somewhere.' In this groundbreaking book, Stovall and Clark lay out the elements of a DEI and social justice communications strategy and a roadmap that will help your organization effectively use a DEI lens to inform all of its work and interactions. The business world has the best potential to usher in change that's long overdue - and now is the time to do it.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A just company creates a win-win in business. Many businesses focus on the numbers. The bottomline seems to be the primary indicator of success. However, lisa wise has not just learned but implemented first-hand the truth that businesses and business leaders who redefine business success-adjusting their focus away from profit and onto their people and those in their communities-see business soar.Self-Elected is lisa's personal testament to the power of abundance and the profitable outcomes that occur when business leaders embrace social entrepreneurship, investing in their people, in their communities and in causes that matter to them and their customers. Part memoir, part business guide, and part manifesto, Self-Elected invites readers to explore the convergence of social justice and profit and uncover the secret sauce to business success-and it is people. People connect with people. People buy from people. People have the opportunity to serve people. She knows because she's lived it and built a business from it. lisa wise shares her deeply personal story about being a child left behind, and how that beginning, coupled with an intuitive knack for entrepreneurship, evolved into an intense desire to build security for herself and others. This work is both personal and practical in nature, providing budding entrepreneurs and those who want to revisit their business models with concrete recommendations for centering their companies in justice without ceding profits. It includes an array of research and case studies to build a compelling argument that prioritizing people and place is the truest path not only to financial success, but to a more equitable and just society. Self-Elected is the story of how one woman who grew up with housing insecurity went on to build a thriving family of property management companies, all while flipping the traditional scarcity-based business model on its head.The old way of tackling business isn't the only way, and it may not be the best way. Customers utilize their purchasing power to align with companies that are in lockstep with their personal values. Proactively and consistently communicating a company's values-and actively living them out in not just how their business interacts with its customers but also, and more importantly, with its employees-is a business' differentiator. To stand out requires businesses to stand up for social justice, and in doing so, their customers, their teams and their communities will be on board, supporting and investing along the way. Businesses have a corporate social responsibility and a charge to make a difference for the greater good. Don't look for the change; become it. The spirit of Self-Elected and the cornerstone of lisa's book is the humbling and empowering realization that we shouldn't wait for things to change. Instead, we should step into our own power to make change happen when and where it can. In businesses specifically, leaders have the opportunity to focus on what is possible rather than what is, and in the process, create companies that are win-win for all. Stop waiting. Stop looking. The answer isn't out there; it's inside each person. It's time to self-elect.…
