Why Simple Wins:

Escape the Complexity Trap and Get to Work That Matters
Complexity is killing companies' ability to innovate and adapt, and simplicity is fast becoming the competitive advantage of our time. Why Simple Wins enables leaders and teams to move beyond the frustration and futility of unproductive work to create a corporate culture when valuable, essential work is the norm. By learning how to eliminate redundancies, communicate with clarity, and make simplification a habit, companies can begin to recognize which activities are time-sucks and which create lasting value. Through Lisa Bodell's latest book, we learn how to eliminate low-value work so we can feel less overwhelmed and more focused on work that actually matters.

Kill the Company:

End the Status Quo, Start an Innovation Revolution
In the ever-­changing world of business, we've arrived at a point where process has trumped culture, where the race toward efficiency has left us unable to reach our potential. Stuck in the land of status quo, we've forgotten how to think. The very structures put in place to help businesses grow are now holding us back; it's time to Kill the Company. This book is a call to arms: to start a revolution in how we think and work. But instead of more one -- size – fits -- all change initiatives forced upon employees, we need to embrace small changes that create ripple effects throughout the organization. Lisa Bodell urges companies to move from "Zombies, Inc." to "Think, Inc."

Thinking can no longer be exclusive to the creative team or lead strategists. A culture of curiosity must be fostered among the ranks to shake up our standard practices, from unproductive meetings to go -- nowhere strategic planning. This revolution can and will awaken our ability to think, and ultimately, to innovate and grow.
