IF IT ISN'T FELT, IT WON'T STICK. That simple truth is at the heart of this book. We often think people act on facts and logic - but it's really their feelings that guide them. Both in private life and at work. When you begin to design for what people feel, not just what they think, everything changes. That's when true engagement - and great value - is created. We're in the middle of an experience revolution. People's view of what really matters - in life and in their relationship with businesses - is undergoing a fundamental shift. We no longer just chase stuff, thrills or status symbols. We seek meaning, emotion, and stories worth sharing. That shift holds enormous potential for those who understand the power of designing experiences that leave a lasting impression. Catch the Feeling - The Art of Designing Meaningful Experiences helps you grow the value of your business in ways that are both meaningful and sustainable - while contributing to a better world for the people who matter to you. This book offers key insights, inspiring real-world examples, and practical tools for creating experiences that truly make a difference - whether you work in leadership, communication, business development, customer experience or public service. You'll gain a deeper understanding of what moves people - and why. You'll find tools and models you can apply directly. And you'll learn how to build more human, engaging and profitable relationships - with your customers, your team and your community. Whether you're transforming an entire organization or planning a dinner for someone you love - this book gives you the mindset and methods to make it meaningful. Catch the Feeling will make your (work)life more joyful, more purposeful - and more profitable. More info: https://www.xn--jaktenpknslan-ifbn.se/in-english

This book really resonates with me and not merely because the authors use rock artists I worked with closely in the past such as Kiss, Led Zeppelin and Nirvana to illustrate the management theories which have long guided the careers of rock stars but which have often eluded corporate managers. They fearlessly puncture the bubbles of predictable, mediocre but "safe" theories that preclude breakthrough success in business and they do it with humor and passion. To borrow a turn of phrase from their instantly classic text, I am a big motherfucking fan of "Heavy Metal Management.

How are new forms of management received in Scandinavia? What are the consequences for work and unions? What are specific Scandinavian contributions to a decent and productive working life? Do the experiences show that another world of work is possible? In the Nordic experience there is no trade-off between equality and economic development. Today however, these models of productive welfare and solidaristic individualism are challenged due to global pressures, financialisation and politics of deregulation. With this background twenty-five leading researchers contribute to a unique overview. Nordic Lights analyses management trends like New Public Management (NPM) and Lean Production, as well as Volvos work and management meeting Ford and Toyota, work environment, union renewal, worker resistance, gender perspectives, the flexible firm, boundaryless work, interactive media, and the new economy. Increasing numbers of jobs are of a precarious nature. Inequalities are growing fast, not least in the Scandinavian countries: The Northern lights are perhaps not that bright any longer? But, in spite of their international dependence, the Nordic countries have been different for a long time, and can be so also in the future. "The Nordic countries have long been beacons for people around the world eager to see workplaces transformed into spaces where working people could express their humanity and aspirations. Readers will find empirical accounts and equally rich theoretical perspectives on the team-work alternatives to the Taylorist and Fordist models and on the broader context in politics, the economy and the labour market that made such alternatives possible." From the Foreword by Paul S. Adler, Professor of Management and Organization, University of Southern California "This remarkable book explains the Scandinavian model of economic justice. It shows how information technologies can be put at the service of people, improving both efficiency and well-being. Scholars, business executives, and trade unions alike should read this thorough account of solidarity economics in practice." Manuel Castells, Professor Emeritus of Sociology and Planning, University of California, Berkeley "This superb book shines a penetrating light on contemporary Nordic developments in the fields of innovation in work, organisation and management. Åke Sandberg has produced an insightful and cohesive book, most suitable for researchers, practitioners and general readers." Russell Lansbury, Emeritus Professor in Work and Employment Relations, University of Sydney "In recent years, economic crisis, globalization and imported managerial techniques, have threatened to destroy the Nordic models of labor relations and research. The good news of Nordic Lights is that most key elements of the models remain intact, even as the region's labor movement faces daunting challenges." Ruth Milkman, Professor of Sociology, City University of New York "The Scandinavian model of work and economy long stood for attempts to reconcile its inherent contradictory interests. Within the field of 'Varieties of capitalism' it constitutes a central variation. Nordic Lights analyses this capitalist alternative in a multifaceted and exciting way." Michael Schumann, Professor, Senior President, SOFI, Soziologisches Forschungsinstitut Göttingen "Anyone interested in knowing more about how work in capitalist society can be organised and managed differently from the hegemonic Anglo-American model must read this book. It offers a comprehensive survey of the solidaristic Swedish and other Nordic models, their considerable strengths, but also their vulnerabilities." Chris Smith, Professor of Organisation Studies and Comparative Management, Royal Holloway University of London Åke Sandberg is Professor Emeritus at the Department of Sociology, Stockholm University, formerly at the National Institute for Working Life and the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH).

Millions of readers have embraced Joseph Murphy's writings, including the phenomenal bestseller The Power of Your Subconscious Mind, a beloved classic that sits alongside the works of Napoleon Hill, Dale Carnegie, and Norman Vincent Peale. This new collection, authorized by the Joseph Murphy Trust, focuses on prosperity - and the simple yet powerful ways we can focus our attention and beliefs to achieve life goals, obtain riches, and live the life of our dreams. Whether you are a long-time reader of Murphy's insights or are discovering his work for the first time, this powerful and deceptively simple volume will illuminate the path to success. Comprised of original writings including some that have never been published in book form, along with modern-day updates, examples, and insights for the contemporary reader, the book goes beyond what we've already heard about the Law of Attraction and the power of positive thinking to reveal the ability that each of us has to manifest remarkable change in our lives.

Oskar Dirlewanger is one of the most reviled war criminals in history. A tall, gaunt, ghoulish-looking man, he commanded a penal unit of the Waffen-SS. The Sonderkommando "Dirlewanger" grew from a company of men previously jailed for poaching into a formation of thousands, the majority of whom were former concentration camp inmates. Ranks comprised a diverse array of convicted persons, ranging from soldiers who committed minor breaches of discipline, to political prisoners, to foreign prisoners of war, to eventually even murderers and rapists. Dr. Soraya Kuklinska has studied Dirlewanger for longer and in more critical detail than any other historian. This includes images, 100 of which are included in this book. The work answers the decades-old questions about Dirlewanger's character and personality, his life, and his death. Further, the book provides new insight into who the men who served under him were, and how they conducted themselves on campaign.

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."
