We are heading for uncertain times. And uncertainty is one thing that the brain doesn't like.

This uncertainty is fuelled by a growing drive for businesses to not just innovate, but to disrupt. The result? Technological capabilities that are quickly advancing towards the automation of every job on the market.

Millions of workers around the world are starting to ask a simple question: "What happens to me when my job gets automated?"

Manufacturing and agricultural industries are well-versed in the consequences of automation. For the services industry, this is relatively new. As machine learning and AI capabilities grow, it becomes viable to automate even well-protected jobs.

The result is growing uncertainty. On a global scale, the impact on the human psyche is fear. Fear that renders us vulnerable to policies which can destabilise our global society. In organisations, this fear creates cultures of blame and stagnation, stifling innovation.

Our trajectory of technological advancement is inevitable. We cannot remove the coming uncertainty. However, uncertainty doesn't need to create fear. We can change how we react so that we embrace and even thrive on this uncertainty.

An interconnected set of crucial life skills, collectively called resilience, is the answer to these uncertain times.

For the first time, insights from neuroscience, psychological resilience, and workplace culture are combined to discover the origin of sustainable disruptive innovation. We present a holistic model for resilience that contains the six critical components of a resilient culture.

Executive Resilience takes a tour through practical neuroscience and their implications for leaders and managers to guide their people in uncertain times.

This book will help you understand:

  • The importance of resilience--why now?
  • What resilience is through the lens of neuroscience
  • How to build personal resilience and lead by example
  • How instil resilience into the culture of an organisation

There is an imperative for us all to work together to build resilience in people. Organisations are particularly well-placed in this pursuit. Not only because of its reach with employees, but also in the measurable benefits that come from a resilient workforce--higher engagement, more innovation, healthy, productive and thriving.

New York Burning
Format: Paperback
. This is an important book that explores in depth what is usually only found in textbooks as a one-sentence summation: "In 1741 there was a slave uprising in New York City." Scholars will probably be happier starting with the Appendix and bibliography and then reading the book. The text is disorganized and uneven, and although this is non-fiction, the characters could have been more finely drawn. Peter Zenger's trail keeps popping up in unexpected places, often disconnected from the action the author is working on. Some sections are heavy on primary documents and period writings, others are more poetic. Yes, I do understand the parallels with the Salem Witch Trials. The Salem Witch Trials get more press today because of Arthur Miller's "Crucible." Color and religion of the participants aside, both events are stories of group think and mass hysteria, fear and anger. There is plenty of room here for a first-class film or play to be written. Read this book, learn from it. Expect to complain about it. Kim Burdick Stanton, DE

What You Didn't Know
Format: Paperback
Did you know that if you were a Catholic Priest on the streets of New York in 1747 that you'd be arrested and hung! Great book if you're interested in the times during which our founding Fathers were growing up. It'll give you a different concept on how slavery was different in NYC as opposed to in the South, and how many of the streets in NYC got there names from English magistrates. If you like history, especially of NYC, you'll love this book.

The authors really edit the cases so that only the important and relevant stuff without the other fluff. I think that this book is better than other expensive textbooks. I don't think anyone didn't love this book. 100% would encourage professors to assign this book.
