English | ASIN: B0DDQL6R71 | 2024 | 6 hours and 15 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 336 MB
Author: Lida Citroën
Narrator: Raquel Beattie

Leave the power tie at home. The old rules of influence don’t work anymore. It’s time to throw out the old rules of influence and become the leader you’ve always wanted to be. A new type of leader is emerging-one with a bold mission who empowers others through transparency and unwavering passion. Modern-day executive presence mandates levels of authenticity and honesty never before seen in the C-suite. Personal branding and reputation management expert, Lida Citroën guides leaders through this new paradigm of executive presence and influence. Through inspiring examples, compelling stories, and practical exercises, Citron helps leaders tap into their passion, connect authentically with others, and create space for inclusivity and community. Greta Thunberg is a powerful example of a new paradigm leader. The Swedish teenager’s influence arguably exceeds that of most CEOs or political leaders. The youngest person to be named Time’s Person of the Year, she radically upended Swedish politics and world climate policy. Nothing about her conforms to the typical expectations of a leader’s executive presence-her power comes from her honesty and genuine passion to make the world a better place.

The New Masculinity A Roadmap for a 21st-Century Definition of Manhood [Audiobook] (2024)

English | July 25, 2023 | ASIN: B0CBW1JQ15 | M4B@64 kbps | 7h 52m | 209 MB
Author: Alex Manley | Narrator: Tom Max
From AskMen senior editor and non-binary writer Alex Manley comes The New Masculinity: A Roadmap for a 21st-Century Definition of Manhood, a guide for escaping the shackles of toxic masculinity, unlearning what it means to be a man, and pushing back against the various ways masculinity teaches people to hurt rather than help, and to harm rather than heal. Manley charts a course for a wholly new future of the self that’s neither particularly manly nor particularly masculine, but responsive, invested, and caring.
Having written and edited for a men’s website for seven and a half years, Manley has seen up close how angry, scared, and lonely men are, and how entrenched in a culture war they feel. This book is a guide for unlearning the habits that perpetuate that harm. There are an infinite number of ways to be a person, but to access them fully, men first need to unlearn the restrictions of modern gender roles and the ways society has taught them to shave parts of themselves off until their masculinity comes before their humanity.

In The New CEO, Dr. Ty Wiggins, an experienced leadership advisor specializing in CEO transitions, explains how to land well as a new CEO, accelerate your impact, and unlock the most affirming experience of your career. Drawing on compelling storytelling and groundbreaking research of hundreds of CEOs around the world, the book offers a incisive guide on what to say and do as a new CEO, including how to define your priorities, build your team, fast-track critical changes, work with the board, and set (or reset) the organization’s culture.

Author: Jean-Martin Bauer
Narrator: Jean-Martin Bauer

A humanitarian leader with more than two decades of experience working for the United Nations takes aim at the global food crisis-revealing how hunger anywhere affects lives everywhere and what steps we can take to change course. At the turn of the twenty-first century, more than 150 countries pledged to eradicate hunger by 2030. But with only a few years left, we’re far from reaching that goal. Instead, hunger is on the rise-America itself recently experienced levels of food insecurity not seen since the Great Depression. How could the richest nation in the world have so many people going hungry? In The New Breadline, aid worker and activist Jean-Martin Bauer unravels this paradox. Bauer’s family fled to America during the terrors of the Duvalier dictatorship in Haiti. Now on the brink of mass starvation, Haiti and its grim history inspired Bauer to make food justice his life’s work.
