Title: The Virgin Way: If It's Not Fun, It's Not Worth Doing Author: Richard Branson Narrator: Gildart Jackson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 26 minutes Release date: September 10, 2024 Genres: Management & Leadership Publisher's Summary: This is a book on leadership from someone who has never read a book on leadership in his life. While building the Virgin Group over the course of forty years, Richard Branson has never shied away from tackling seemingly outlandish challenges that others (including his own colleagues on many occasions) considered sheer lunacy. He has taken on giants like British Airways and won, and monsters like Coca-Cola and lost. Now Branson gives an inside look at his strikingly different, swashbuckling style of leadership. Learn how fun, family, passion, and the dying art of listening are key components to what his extended family of employees around the world has always dubbed (with a wink) 'the Virgin Way.' This unique perspective comes from a man who dropped out of school at sixteen, suffers from dyslexia, and has never worked for anyone but himself. He may be famous for thinking outside the box—an expression he despises—but Branson asserts that 'you’ll never have to think outside the box if you refuse to let anyone build one around you.'

Title: Unlearning Silence: How to speak your mind, unleash talent and lead with courage Author: Elaine Lin Hering Narrator: Elaine Lin Hering Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 56 minutes Release date: March 21, 2024 Genres: Management & Leadership Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. Having a seat at the table doesn't mean that your voice gets heard. Knowing something is wrong doesn't make it easy to speak up. But this silencing - intentional or not - has profound consequences on our work and life. It blocks talent, skews decisions and causes teams and individuals to fail. So what if there was another way? Drawing on her experience as a lecturer at Harvard Law School and as a Managing Partner at one of the world's leading leadership development companies, Elaine Lin Hering delves into the roots of silence, examining the patterns that keep us trapped, and showcases the impact that rewiring unconscious behaviours can have on innovation, creativity and collaboration. From the boardroom to the classroom, from personal relationships to wider communities, Hering shows us how we can have more authentic conversations, foster inclusive spaces and amplify all voices. Because only by unlearning silence can we fully unleash talent, speak our minds, and be more complete versions of ourselves... and help other people do the same. ©2024 Elaine Lin Hering (P)2024 Penguin Audio

Title: The Friction Project: How Smart Leaders Make the Right Things Easier and the Wrong Things Harder Author: Huggy Rao, Robert I. Sutton Narrator: Sean Patrick Hopkins Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 44 minutes Release date: February 15, 2024 Genres: Management & Leadership Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. No organization is totally free from destructive friction; the forces that make it harder, more complicated and sometimes downright impossible to get things done. Drawing on years of research and featuring case studies on the likes of Uber, Netflix and Boeing, The Friction Project teaches readers how to become 'friction fixers'. Stanford professors Sutton and Rao unpack how we should think and act like trustees of others' time. They provide friction forensics to help readers identify where to avert and repair bad friction, and where to maintain and inject good friction. Their help pyramid shows how friction fixers do their work, which ranges from reframing issues they can't fix in the short term, to ultimately redesigning and repairing organizations. The Friction Project is the essential guide to understanding and resolving workplace difficulties, and establishing a thriving culture of positivity and productivity in their place.
