Unspoken Truths For Career Success
$19.99Add to cartPeople are competing for jobs at a rate not seen since World War II. In this book, Tessa White teaches readers, specifically digital native millennials, how to recognize what is holding them back from getting a job and climbing the ladder.
People are competing for jobs in a country that hit a high of 14.8% unemployment in April (seasonally adjusted), a rate not seen in the post-World War II era. Of that population during the height of the pandemic, 57% of those who lost their jobs were unable to work because they closed or lost business. With many of these companies and industries collapsing or shutting their doors forever, it necessitated full career pivots for many individuals. It was not just about finding another job; it was about finding a whole new profession.
Adding to the shakeup are the quickly shifting workforce demographics as the Millennials and Generation Z (137,000,000 combined) take over the workforce. These digital natives are squarely in their career-building years, with younger members just getting started on a long career journey. And yet despite their numbers, they have unique work challenges, including being the most overlooked generational group for promotion and the slowest to advance.
This book acts as a workplace “bible” on how to address the most common work problems that get in the way of a person’s success including:
*Work burnout
*Lack of work/life balance
*Pay inequities
*Difficult work politics
*A lack of influence or power
*The lack of clarity around role or performanceLies That Got You Here shows how these common problems often play out and the mistakes individuals often make as they try to navigate them. The book also offers solutions that don’t jeopardize a person’s job or hurt their career, instead getting people back on a successful and satisfying career track. Where many people look to the company to provide the right setting, the right culture, or the right rules and processes, this book gives practical strategies and methods to change the way one interacts with the workplace altogether and get a different result. It requires the reader to be their own greatest advocate, highlighting a path for any individual to own a better workplace and career experience.

Coming Of Neo Feudalism
$20.99Add to cartFollowing a remarkable epoch of greater dispersion of wealth and opportunity, we are inexorably returning towards a more feudal era marked by greater concentration of wealth and property, reduced upward mobility, demographic stagnation, and increased dogmatism. If the last seventy years saw a massive expansion of the middle class, not only in America but in much of the developed world, today that class is declining and a new, more hierarchical society is emerging.
The new class structure resembles that of Medieval times. At the apex of the new order are two classes–a reborn clerical elite, the clerisy, which dominates the upper part of the professional ranks, universities, media and culture, and a new aristocracy led by tech oligarchs with unprecedented wealth and growing control of information. These two classes correspond to the old French First and Second Estates.
Below these two classes lies what was once called the Third Estate. This includes the yeomanry, which is made up largely of small businesspeople, minor property owners, skilled workers and private-sector oriented professionals. Ascendant for much of modern history, this class is in decline while those below them, the new Serfs, grow in numbers–a vast, expanding property-less population.
The trends are mounting, but we can still reverse them–if people understand what is actually occurring and have the capability to oppose them.

Next American Economy
$30.99Add to cartOne of America’s greatest success stories is its economy. For over a century, it has been the envy of the world. The opportunity it generates has inspired millions of people to want to become American.
Today, however, America’s economy is at a crossroads. Many have lost confidence in the country’s commitment to economic liberty. Across the political spectrum, many want the government to play an even greater role in the economy via protectionism, industrial policy, stakeholder capitalism, or even quasi-socialist policies. Numerous American political and business leaders are embracing these ideas, and traditional defenders of markets have struggled to respond to these challenges in fresh ways. Then there is a resurgent China bent on eclipsing the United States’s place in the world. At stake is not only the future of the world’s biggest economy, but the economic liberty that remains central to America’s identity as a nation.
But managed decline and creeping statism do not have to be America’s only choices, let alone its destiny. For this book insists that there is an alternative. And that is a vibrant market economy grounded on entrepreneurship, competition, and trade openness, but embedded in what America’s founding generation envisaged as the United States’s future: a dynamic Commercial Republic that takes freedom, commerce, and the common good of all Americans seriously, and allows America as a sovereign-nation to pursue and defend its interests in a dangerous world without compromising its belief in the power of economic freedom.

Charging Ahead : General Motors, Mary Barra, And The Reinvention Of An Amer
$29.99Add to cartMary Barra’s quest to move GM to a manufacturer of electric cars has captured the attention of automobile aficionados, green-business advocates, and leaders of all types who have to admire Mary’s toughness in moving forward despite the overwhelming obstacles in her path.
A decade ago, no one would have guessed that GM would be the company poised to lead America into the future. At a time when business book readers seem endlessly fascinated by soaring tech giants like Amazon and Netflix, and ill-fated startups like WeWork and Theranos, why is it important to put the spotlight back on 112-year-old GM? Because Charlie Wilson’s quip from 1952 is still true: What’s good for GM is still good for America, and vice versa. America needs to transition to a new era of clean energy and environmentally sustainable transportation. We also need to adapt to a world with far fewer assembly-line jobs, but far more skilled jobs for people who can design, build, and operate robots and other high-tech machines. GM’s attempt to lead those transitions is as important as it is dramatic.
Equally compelling is the story of GM’s CEO, Mary Barra, who against all odds took the reins at GM in 2014. Since that time, she has attempted to reinvent a century-old company and equip it for the biggest change in transportation since the internal combustion engine replaced the horse. In the process, she has been ripping out GM traditions by the roots–and taking flak from all sides. Her plan is to make GM–the company famed for the gas-burning Corvette, hulking Cadillac Escalade, and carbon-spewing Silverado pickup–purely electric and clean by 2035.
She may not be as wealthy as Jeff Bezos, as brash as Elon Musk, or as powerful as Mark Zuckerberg, but Mary Barra is just as important as any of them. And as one of the most powerful female executives in the world, she is overdue for an in-depth look at her forward-thinking vision, her approach to leadership, and her accomplishments against the odds.
