The way of the Wall Street warrior : conquer the corporate game using tips, tricks, and smartcuts / by Liu, Dave,author.; Snyder, Adam,author.(CARDINAL)533164;
"The Wall Street Way is an insider's irreverent, acerbic guide on how to use gamesmanship to get hired, get ahead, and survive on Wall Street, on Main Street, any other highly competitive environment. The tactics described for getting in the door and rising to the top of the food chain apply whether you spend 18 hours a day in a dog-eat-dog office sitting two steps from your nearest colleague, or if you're working from home because of the pandemic. Either way the secret sauce described in these pages ranges from interview tips, to fitting in, to covering (and glorifying) your behind. The strategies come from the author's personal experiences during the 25 years he worked on Wall Street, arguably one of the most grueling professional work environments in the world, but his tips can lead to financial success in any business. The book will lean heavily on research into cognitive biases and human nature, but will focus almost exclusively on actionable ideas. It will be high on practical, often offbeat, tactics with an emphasis on gamesmanship, and will be accessible to any reader, working at any job, due to its humorous, irreverent, satirical tone"--

Strong ground : the lessons of daring leadership, the tenacity of paradox, and the wisdom of the human spirit / by Brown, Brené,author.(CARDINAL)345864;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 399-415) and index.Strong ground -- Tush push -- The thrill of victory, the agony of defeat, and the power of poetry -- Prardox and the human spirit -- Ode to negative capability -- Adam Grant: on searching for reasons we might be wrong -- Lessons from daring leadership -- The anatomy of transformation -- Ginny Clarke: on managing, leading, and why we need both -- Mission critical? mission clarity -- Amy Webb: a strategic futurist on steering into the slide -- The above/below the line practice -- Sarah Lewis: on mastery, creativity, and failure -- Pocket presence -- Grounded confidence -- Dan Pink: on symphonic thinking -- Aiko Bethen: on getting anchored, aligned, and accountable -- Lock-in and lock-through power -- Abby Wambach: on leading, pointing, and running -- The big reward -- The locked room mystery -- Between stimulus and response.Over the past six years, Brené Brown, along with a global community of coaches and facilitators, has taken more than 150,000 leaders in 45 countries through her Dare to Lead courage-building work. In Strong Ground, Brown shares the lessons from these experiences along with wisdom from other thinkers. This is a vital playbook for everyone from senior leaders developing and executing complex strategies to Gen Z-ers entering and navigating turbulent work environments. It is also an unflinching assessment of what happens when we continue to perpetuate the falsehood that performance and wholeheartedness are mutually exclusive. With equal amounts of optimism and caution about AI, Brown writes, 'I hear a lot of experts trying to soothe people's anxiety about the pace of technological change by offering platitudes like, What makes us human will ensure our relevance. This is dangerous simply because, right now, we're not especially good at what makes us human. We're not hardwired for this level of uncertainty, and many of us feel as if the constant need to self-protect is driving the humanity right out of us. This is why organizational transformation today must foster deep connection, deep thinking, and deep collaboration. We need the courage to lead people in a way that honors and protects the wisdom of the human spirit.' Brown offers a broad assessment of the skill sets and mindsets we need moving forward, including the capacity for respectful and difficult conversations, increased productive urgency and smart prioritization rather than reactivity, and strategic risk-taking, paradoxical thinking, and situational and anticipatory awareness skills. She identifies the toughest skill set as the discipline, humility, and confidence to unlearn and relearn. Brown writes, 'Individuals and organizations are building new muscles. Finding our strong ground--that athletic stance--is the only thing that can provide both unwavering stability in a maelstrom of uncertainty and a platform for the fast, explosive change that the world is demanding.

Dare to lead [large print] : brave work, tough conversations, whole hearts / by Brown, Brené,author.(CARDINAL)345864;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Introduction: Brave leaders and courage cultures -- The moment and the myths -- The call to courage -- The armory -- Shame and empathy -- Curiosity and grounded confidence -- Living into our values -- Braving trust -- Learning to rise.Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential. When we dare to lead, we don't pretend to have the right answers. We stay curious and ask the right questions. We don't see power as finite and hoard it. We know that power becomes infinite when we share it with others. We don't avoid difficult conversations and situations. We lean into vulnerability when it's necessary to do good work. But daring leadership in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely human. The irony is that we're choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the exact same time as we're scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and artificial intelligence can't do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start. Brené Brown has spent the past two decades studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives, and the past seven years working with transformative leaders and teams spanning the globe. She found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies all ask the same question: How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture?
