Every Team Actually Doing Business Better

Atif Sheikh and Darren Ashby

Book PRAuthor InterviewsContent CreationReviews

Political unrest, economic instability, rapidly developing technologies and the climate crisis are just some of the unprecedented challenges the world is facing today. Businesses across all sectors face pressures to change, innovate and adapt quickly – and do more with less – yet we all know 70% of all change initiatives fail, so why is nothing actually changing? Why are businesses not only wasting budget, but also missing opportunities to make a positive impact on society.

So, what is the secret behind the few change initiatives that do successfully build and harness a ‘whatever it takes’ culture in a company, and actually do business better?

New book, Every Team Actually Doing Business Better, reveals the inside stories of how organisations around the world have succeeded (and failed) in using purpose to actually make a meaningful difference. Authors Atif Sheikh and Darren Ashby are co-founders of leading purpose, culture and change consultancy, businessfourzero, and have seen and shared the frustrations over the pace and nature of change in businesses. They created a step-by-step guide by drawing upon exclusive real-life case studies of how organisations including Tesco, EA, TSB, IHG and Aviva were able to actually unlock a new level of commercial performance whilst simultaneously delivering massive positive societal impact.

At a time when trust in leaders and big corporations is low, the book provides a blueprint for building human-centred, purpose-driven businesses. It demonstrates how the values of each individual can be harnessed to create organisations where every single team is ready, willing and able to run through any wall to deliver your purpose and strategy.

A business on a mission is a truly remarkable thing, and the commercial and societal gains can be enormous – so why do so few companies get anywhere near that level?

The golden thread between Strategy, Culture and Purpose

From writing the perfect purpose statement to creating a strategy that puts your purpose to action, strengthening your team’s mission-focus to nurturing their collective agency, this book is packed with practical tips, tools and exercises to achieve impactful and sustainable change for success.

Every Team Actually Doing Business Better is a book for C-level leaders who want their businesses to change faster than the world around them. It is an invaluable guide for CEOs, CPOs, entrepreneurs, HR and L&D leaders alike to align their strategy, culture and purpose to create faster, deeper and lasting transformation.

The Paradox of Debt: A New Path to Prosperity Without Crisis

Richard Vague

Publisher: Forum Released: 04.07.2023

Book PRAuthor InterviewsContent CreationReviewsRadio

When we talk about debt and its economic impact, we usually centre on “government debt,” and overlook the debt owed by individuals and firms that is vital to truly understanding the economy.

In this iconoclastic book, Richard Vague examines the assets, liabilities, and incomes of the American economy as a whole, not just of the government. The book shows that debt growth in excess of GDP growth is a feature of modern economic systems, not a bug―and thus ever-increasing leverage is built into the very structure of the economy. Vague uses the data presented in the book to show that rising debt is the primary source of economic growth, new money creation, and wealth creation―but that it also brings heightened inequality and can bring economic calamity when left unchecked.

Vague also compares and contrasts the financial data of the U.S. to the world’s other largest economies.

As an expert on the role of private debt in the global economy, Vague offers an innovative set of policies to try to manage this debt paradox.

Whether you are a policymaker or a private citizen looking to understand these dynamics, this book is an indispensable guide.

Leader as Healer: A new paradigm for 21st-century leadership

Nicholas Janni

Publisher: LID Released: 24.03.2022

Book PRAuthor InterviewsContent CreationReviewsRadio

This is a book about the highest levels of presence and peak performance leadership. It is, above all, a call to break from the chronically imbalanced ways of thinking and functioning that have become the norm in so many corporate cultures, where doing, eclipses being, and hyper-rational, analytical thinking relegates feeling, sensing, intuiting and the transpersonal to the outer fringes of life. To face the scope and threats of 21st-century challenges, today’s leaders must possess potent powers for logic, reason, discernment and strategic forecasting. Yet, they must also be empathic and therefore embodied, grounded and intuitive.

Today's leaders must be:

  • Skilled in mindfulness and deep listening
  • Present and receptive to higher levels of insight and innovation
  • Able to inspire authentic engagement and collaboration
  • Possess a clear and wholehearted sense of service, mission and purpose

Such a leader is the Leader as Healer.

Revolting Women: Why midlife women are walking out, and what to do about it

Dr Lucy Ryan

Publisher: Practical Inspiration Publishing ISBN: 9781788603980 Released: 05.09.2023

Book PRAuthor InterviewsContent CreationReviewsRadio

Professional women over 50 are faced with a triple-whammy of discrimination: they are not male, young, or linear in their career paths. As a result, they are leaving corporate life and taking their career into their own hands. And with it, they take their abundant wisdom, energy and ambition.

Drawing on new research by Dr Lucy Ryan that fills a longstanding data gap, this book shows that assumptions about declining midlife motivation and energy just aren’t true for women and reveals how you can retain and develop this invaluable talent pool with a better understanding of their challenges and a few simple changes.

In Revolting Women, Dr Lucy Ryan shows how professional women have transformed our world and how women over 50 are deserving of your attention and ready to step up in your business.
