Mau: MC24, Bruce Mau's 24 Principles for Designing Massive Change in Your Life and Work

Mau believes that design is more than making fancy objects look good. Design provides the process and the tools, Mau argues, for leaders to envision a better future across the spectrum of human activities and devise a systematic approach to achieving their vision. A key premise of Mau's book is you don't have to be a designer to design a better life or a better business.

Gifts of Imperfection

Brené Brown, Ph.D., explores the psychology of releasing our definitions of an “imperfect” life and embracing living authentically. Brown’s “ten guideposts” are benchmarks for authenticity that can help anyone establish a practice for a life of honest beauty—a perfectly imperfect life.

Find Your Why

"Find Your Why" picks up where "Start With Why" left off. It shows you how to apply Simon Sinek’s powerful insights so that you can find more inspiration at work -- and in turn inspire those around you.

Start With Why

START WITH WHY shows that the leaders who've had the greatest influence in the world all think, act, and communicate the same way -- and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Simon Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.

Designing Your Life: How to Build a Well-Lived, Joyful Life

Bill Burnett and Dave Evans show how design thinking can help us create a life that is both meaningful and fulfilling, regardless of who or where we are, what we do or have done for a living, or how young or old we are. The same design thinking responsible for amazing technology, products, and spaces can be used to design and build your career and your life, a life of fulfillment and joy, constantly creative and productive, one that always holds the possibility of surprise.
