We’re living in a time of amazing innovation, but we’re not paying enough attention to one of the most important of all: the innovation to the company itself. Now, bestselling author of The Second Machine Age, Andrew McAfee, explains how engineers and geeks are changing the world of business – with extraordinary results.
A new model is being pioneered by geeks; a radical new mindset that has shifted the paradigm entirely on what a business can – and should – be. They do not follow the rules of the Industrial era, with their hierarchies and bureaucratic ways of thinking. They do not follow the principles preached in business schools since the dawn of time. They have all dedicated themselves to approaching business as a geek would: through trial and error, egalitarianism, evidence and stress-testing ideas in a group setting – rather than relying on the boss’s instincts.
By investigating and surveying the contemporary research in psychology, economics and the behavioural sciences, as well as first-hand accounts from the ‘geek’ leaders of today, McAfee's groundbreaking exploration of this emerging phenomenon gets to the heart of the tectonic shifts taking place all over the business world. We have entered a new age. And this age will transform how we achieve great things, now and into the future. The future is geek.

What would it do to movements, to our society and culture, to have the
principles of healing at the very center? What does it mean to center
healing in every structure and everything we create?
As we emerge from the past few years of collective upheaval, are we
ready to face the complexities of our time with joy, authenticity, and
connection? Now more than ever, we must learn to heal ourselves,
connect with one another, and embody our values. In this revolutionary
book, Prentis Hemphill shows us how.
What It Takes to Heal asserts that the principles of embodiment - the
recognition of our body's sensations and habits, and the beliefs that
inform them - are critical to lasting healing and transformation.
Hemphill, an expert embodiment practitioner, therapist, and activist,
who has partnered with Tarana Burke and Esther Perel, among others,
shows us that we don't have to carry our emotional burdens alone.
Hemphill demonstrates a future in which healing is done in community,
weaving together stories from their own experience as a trauma survivor
with clinical accounts and lessons learned from their time as a social
movement architect.
In this life-affirming framework for the way forward, Hemphill shows us
how to heal our bodies, minds and souls - to develop the interpersonal
skills necessary to break down the doors of disconnection and take the
necessary risks to reshape our world towards justice.
There are plenty of things to smile about, as long as you open your
eyes to see them! So lift your spirits with this little book of
uplifting quotes and delightful ideas to help you look on the
bright side of life.
