The Rough Guide to Awesome Leadership

A brain friendly approach to take action and be an inspiring leader

By: Ivan Palomino,Elena Agaragimova

This is a book for leaders and leaders-to-be that feel that they can create great impact in their organization through the understanding of human psychology. The authors are not academics. We say it is as it is - plain, blunt, and simple. This book is for people who had enough of knowing what it takes to change but simply find it hard to be motivated and consistent with actions to be an awesome leader. It is for people who believe that life is simply about trying and sometimes failing and that’s ok, as long as there is progress. Each chapter describes insights and actions that defines leadership in the way that leaders can thrive as a person and inspire others. In our work with executive leaders, we have found some commonalities in leaders that were successful in escaping the rat race for validation and lead teams to superior heights: 1. They take decisions based on what makes their teams flourish 2. They have developed a process of regular practice of micro-actions to increase their capacity to manage their interactions with their teams 3. They have developed a mindset where they trust their own capabilities to learn as well as the capabilities of their teams This also means that they let go of existing paradigms on what motivates people, and they even went rogue with the practice of more human centric values. This book is not about leadership frameworks. Instead, we wanted to share a list of ideas that can ignite curiosity and inspire you for some quick action.To come with these ideas, we have combined our experience in the field of leadership development with a couple of applications of behavioral science. Many organizations are craving to create solid human centric cultures and build a new generation of leaders that are prepared to make a human work culture sustainable. WHY IT MATTERS TO BE AN AWESOME LEADER AND WHY IT CAN SOMETIMES BE PAINFUL? Like many people in leadership positions, you have probably sweated a lot to make it there – long hours of work to prove your commitment, some extra work to prepare for presentations to show that you have brains to solve problems, socializing with colleagues (the ones you like and the ones you don’t), enduring some amazing and some painful bosses, learning and repeating new buzzwords, awkward discussions about when you will be promoted. It seems like a never-ending story to prove that you are cut out for the new position. Now that you are part of the sacred circle, the question is - when does the painful aim to prove yourself ends? Some will tell you that it never ends. We believe that there is a way to make it less painful for you and others.

Step Zero Before the Hustle

How to Prepare Yourself for the Journey of Entrepreneurship

By: Ivan Palomino,Dr. Haruka Marufuji

Launching a business is less about a great idea but more about the capacity to execute that idea. This book is made to help aspiring entrepreneurs prepare the mindset and skills to launch and sustain a viable business that they enjoy. Forget 'unicorns' - this book is about the REAL foundation of lasting wealth: YOU. Most business books obsess over the 'big idea'. This one gets it: ideas are cheap, execution is everything. The book tackles the tough questions of becoming an entrepreneur: - How do you build a mindset that learns relentlessly, not just regurgitates knowledge? - How do you truly know yourself - strengths, weaknesses, and all - to build a team that complements you? - How do you turn failure into fuel, not let it burn you out? - How do you master focus in an age of distraction, turning motivation into consistent action? - How do you build genuine relationships, not just transactional networks? - How do you influence without manipulation, say 'no' without guilt, and craft a story that resonates? If you're tired of surface-level 'hustle', this book is a deep dive into the inner game of entrepreneurship. It's not about getting rich quick; it's about building a life of meaning and impact. This book is written by Ivan Palomino [behavioral designer] and Dr. Haruka Marufuji [leadership researcher] with contributions from founders and subject matter experts: Zuleka Kaysan, Jorge Castellote, Dr. Alec Corthay, Michel Heitzmann, Egils Boitmanis, Alei Hassanein, Agni Skafidas, Joshua Berry, Mykola Takzey and Treesha Swami.

Brown's Hole

Brown's Hole

By: Ivan Bosanko

Brown’s Hole was like no other outlaw hideout in the Wild West! It earned its reputation as the “Worst Hellhole in the West” the easy way: It was the safe haven for the notorious Butch Cassidy and his Wild Bunch during their heyday. As the cornerstone for the infamous “Outlaw Trail,” the Hole had no equal, yet honest ranchers like Beemis Markham and his two orphaned nieces proved they could co-exist with Cassidy and the murderous cattlemen’s detective, Tom Horn (with his “system that never fails”), if they were willing to pay the price. Josie and Ann Barnett grew up, loved and lost in an epic about the two prettiest, most eligible women the Hole ever had. Two terrific love stories are wrapped around Cassidy and Horn’s time in the Hole along with a great inside look at how the Outlaw Trail operated. Brown’s Hole is the only place where the Wild West stayed young!

Last Bus to Wisdom

A Novel

By: Ivan Doig

Named a Best Book of the Year by the Seattle Times and Kirkus Review The final novel from a great American storyteller. Donal Cameron is being raised by his grandmother, the cook at the legendary Double W ranch in Ivan Doig’s beloved Two Medicine Country of the Montana Rockies, a landscape that gives full rein to an eleven-year-old’s imagination. But when Gram has to have surgery for “female trouble” in the summer of 1951, all she can think to do is to ship Donal off to her sister in faraway Manitowoc, Wisconsin. There Donal is in for a rude surprise: Aunt Kate–bossy, opinionated, argumentative, and tyrannical—is nothing like her sister. She henpecks her good-natured husband, Herman the German, and Donal can’t seem to get on her good side either. After one contretemps too many, Kate packs him back to the authorities in Montana on the next Greyhound. But as it turns out, Donal isn’t traveling solo: Herman the German has decided to fly the coop with him. In the immortal American tradition, the pair light out for the territory together, meeting a classic Doigian ensemble of characters and having rollicking misadventures along the way. Charming, wise, and slyly funny, Last Bus to Wisdom is a last sweet gift from a writer whose books have bestowed untold pleasure on countless readers.

This House of Sky

Landscapes of a Western Mind

By: Ivan Doig

National Book Award Finalist: A “beautifully written, deeply felt” memoir about growing up in the American West (Los Angeles Times). Ivan Doig grew up in the rugged wilderness of western Montana among the sheepherders and denizens of small-town saloons and valley ranches. What he deciphers from his past with piercing clarity is not only a raw sense of land and how it shapes us, but also of the ties to our mothers and fathers, to those who love us, and our inextricable connection to those who shaped our values in our search for intimacy, independence, love, and family. A powerfully told story, This House of Sky is uniquely American—yet also universal in its ability to awaken a longing for an explicable past. “Engrossing and moving.”—Time

Plant-Based Therapeutics, Volume 1

Cannabis sativa

By: Ivan A. Ross

By examining historical applications of the compounds found in plants, this five-volume series serves as a reference for quality assurance, research, product development, and regulatory guidance of the compounds found in plant-based medicines. This work supports the growing consumers' interest in herbal medicine for wellness and health. Plant-Based Therapeutics, Volume 1: Cannabis sativa, the first in the series, covers a unique plant species and provides the framework to integrate its evidence-based scientific discoveries with healthcare therapies. Cannabis has been used in religious ceremonies and medical purposes for thousands of years. Cannabidiol (CBD), the main non-psychoactive component of Cannabis, was isolated in the 1940s, and its structure was established in the 1960s. In 1964 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive component, was isolated. Cannabis has more than 500 components, of which 104 cannabinoids have been identified. Two of them, THC and CBD, have been the primary components of scientific investigations. They were approved by the FDA for chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in 1985; for appetite stimulation in wasting conditions, such as AIDS, in 1992, and in 2018 for treating two forms of pediatric epilepsy, Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Beyond the indications for which cannabinoids are FDA-approved, the evidence reveals that cannabinoid receptors are present throughout the body, embedded in cell membranes, and are believed to be more numerous than any other receptor system. When cannabinoid receptors are stimulated, a variety of physiologic processes ensue. Thus, other constituents of Cannabis are extremely promising either as individual compounds or their potential synergistic or entourage effects in the treatment of numerous medical conditions.

The Truant From Medicine

A Memoir

By: Ivan Donaldson

The engaging, witty, fascinating memoir of one of New Zealand's most eminent neurologists and winemakers. It all began when Ivan Donaldson's girlfriend, Chris, gave him Hugo Johnson's book Wine in 1966. A light bulb went off in the mind of the talented, ambitious young doctor. A fascination with wine started when he and that girfriend, now his wife of 46 years, started making fruit wines, then wine made with table grapes from her parents' garden. Things got more serious when he was working in London in the early 1970s and they were able to head off to France in their rackety old car to tour vineyards. Things got more serious still when, in the late 1970s, he and a group of Christchurch doctors planted out Mountainview vineyard in Halswell. And things became very serious indeed when, in 1984, Ivan and Chris Donaldson bought a parcel of land in the Waipara Valley on which to start Pegasus Bay Wines. It's now one of New Zealand's best-known and most awarded small wineries, still owned and run by the family and making magnificent wine using sustainable methods. It's highly sought after in overseas markets. Somehow, in between all this Ivan Donaldson has managed to carve out an impressive medical career. This engaging memoir tells how he has integrated the two great loves of his life. It's the story of one of this country's wine pioneers but also the fascinating account of a life in medicine, spent plumbing the deep mysteries of the human brain.
