Download or read book Dreamers and Unicorns written by Abhijit Bhaduri and published by Penguin Random House India Private Limited. This book was released on 2023-01-09 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Which description fits your organisation? DREAMERS: Most Dreamers or early-stage startups, know how to build products, not organisations. Most Dreamers stay local and never become a Unicorn with a national footprint. UNICORNS: Three curses the Unicorns have to watch for-a narcissistic leader, a leadership team of old cronies and a toxic culture. These prevent them from going global and becoming Market Shapers. MARKET SHAPERS: A Market Shaper changes how we live and work-across countries and cultures. Their challenge is to continuously earn the trust of governments and communities. INCUMBENTS: Many Incumbents were once Market Shapers and Unicorns. The leaders don't know that the firm and its offerings are irrelevant. Not being able to attract and retain talent is a warning bell the leaders often ignore. Packed with ideas and innovations, this powerhouse of a book by best-selling author and talent management specialist Abhijit Bhaduri explains why leadership, talent and culture are the new drivers of growth whether you are a Dreamer, a Unicorn, a Market Shaper or an Incumbent.
Download or read book Find Your Unicorn Space written by Eve Rodsky and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2021-12-28 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Fair Play comes an inspirational guide for setting new personal goals, rediscovering your interests, cultivating creativity, and reclaiming your Unicorn Space. With her acclaimed New York Times bestseller (and Reese’s Book Club pick) Fair Play, Eve Rodsky began a national conversation about greater equality on the home front. But she soon realized that even when the domestic workload becomes more balanced, people still report something missing in their lives—that is, unless they create and prioritize time for activities that not only fill their calendars but also unleash their creativity. Rodsky calls this vital time Unicorn Space—the active and open pursuit of creative self-expression in any form that makes you uniquely YOU. To help readers embrace all the unlikely, surprising, and delightful places where their own Unicorn Space may be found, she speaks with trail blazers, thought leaders, academics, and countless real people who have discovered theirs everywhere—from activism to artistic endeavors to second careers. Rodsky reveals what researchers already know: Creativity is not optional. It’s essential. Though most of us do need to remind ourselves how (and where) to find it. With her trademark mix of research based, how-to advice and big-picture inspirational thinking, Rodsky shows you a clear path to reclaim your permission to have fun, manifest your own Unicorn Space in an already too-busy life, and unleash your special gifts and undiscovered talents into the world.

Download or read book Modern Devil s Advocacy written by Robert Koshinskie and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2018, the celebrated biotechnology startup Theranos collapsed from a market valuation of over $9 billion into bankruptcy and felony charges against its superstar founder, Elizabeth Holmes.

This book will show you how practically anyone from the CEO to the newly minted manager can and should think and act like a modern Devil’s Advocate. You will learn the origin of modern Devil’s Advocacy, why the practice is desperately needed today, and how to apply modern Devil’s Advocacy in any setting. If you want to learn how to constructively challenge the judgments that you and others make and achieve better outcomes, then this book is for you.

Download or read book Teaching Old Dogs New Tricks written by Tom Waters and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2022-11-09 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for corporate managers with a mandate for ‘innovation’, but no idea how to make that happen. C-suite executives and boards of directors are increasingly looking for companies to reinvent themselves or risk being left behind. With this book, companies can monetize employee’s ideas in a manner that doesn’t cost a fortune or create conflicts of interest within the ranks. Not every creative expression is going to result in tens of millions of dollars in revenue–but many will create licensing opportunities that are, at the very least, essentially free money for new product development. Another cadre of readers will realize their innovation-rich futures are languishing in corporate purgatory. Should they quit and pitch their ‘million-dollar idea’ to another organization entirely (as outsiders), or can they take this book to their leaders and drive change, one manager at a time?
