'A powerful playbook to lead and master change.'Dominic Price, Atlassian After the global pause in 2020, we returned to a world that feels faster, looser, and less structured our professional boundaries have been erased, social and cultural norms are shifting rapidly, and at the same time, we're facing profound developments in artificialintelligence. We're facing more change more often, and we're applying a mindset that is simply outdated and no longer fit-for-purpose.Adapt offers a fresh perspective. Andrea Clarke, the award-winning author of Future Fit, argues that rather than retreat from change or resist it, we must engage with it continuously learning not just how change unfolds, but how we can shape it. With four simple yet powerful principles, she shows how to explore new possibilities using the 80/20 rule, test out small-scale strategies for long-term benefits, and analyse possible futures by flipping the facts and running 'what if' scenarios. Whether you're navigating a business or seeking more stability in your personal life, Adapt will equip you with a new way to master change in an unpredictable world. Our ability to reconcile the past few years and make sense of what lies ahead depends entirely on our capacity to adapt.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Upon the fifth anniversary of the murder of George Floyd comes an account of leadership, justice, and race by Medaria 'Rondo' Arradondo, the first Black police chief of Minnesota.On May 25, 2020, George Floyd was killed by Minneapolis police. Soon, the city and the entire nation erupted with the most destructive and costly civil unrest since the Los Angeles riots twenty-eight years earlier. Standing steadfast in the middle was Medaria "Rondo" Arradondo, a man who understood from an early age that while police could be heroes, they could also be threats, especially to Black men like himself.

Buch. Zustand: Neu.

Of letting go each responsibility and cutting every tie. And I know I'm not the only one. But, when I learnt about the creative figures who left their lives behind, I began to ask myself: what is gained and what is lost when we withdraw from the world To answer this question, Guy Stagg tells the story of three of the twentieth century's most original minds: the philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein, the poet and painter David Jones, and the writer Simone Weil. All three went on retreat during times of crisis, to find their work and their lives changed for ever. Seeking to understand these experiences, Stagg follows Wittgenstein to the ancient monastery outside Vienna where he recovered from depression, sails to the isolated island off the Welsh coast where Jones discovered a new way to make art, and spends Lent at the forbidding French Abbey that sparked an epiphany in Weil's thinking.The World Withinblends a moving personal account with history, biography and travel,offering a profound exploration of the impulse to withdraw. It asks why retreat still enchants people to this day and hints at how each one of us can find a sanctuary of our own.A luminous new book from the critically acclaimed author of The Crossway, winner of the Edward Stanford Travel Memoir of the Year, and shortlisted for the Rathbones Folio Prize, Royal Society of Literature Ondaatje Prize and Somerset Maugham Award 2019.…
