Business students, MBA candidates, newly promoted professionals, and managers from non-finance backgrounds often lack a practical understanding of how broader aspects of financial accounting dynamics function in the business world, such as corporate financial reporting, governance, and strategic decision-making.

Accounting Beyond Numbers illustrates that accounting is not confined to the mechanics of double-entry bookkeeping. Rather, it demonstrates the breadth of financial accounting and its applications, helping readers develop a clear, confident understanding of its significance in contemporary business practice.

Structured across twelve chapters, this book uses clear explanations, real-world examples, and case studies to bridge the gap between theory and practice in corporate reporting, financial reporting standards, management accounting, business finance, auditing, corporate governance, ethical practice, sustainability reporting, fraud detection, and business intelligence.

In addition, readers will learn about modern business tools such as the Balanced Scorecard, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, and Shared Service Centres, which offer a practical framework for understanding how contemporary organizations operate, perform, and remain accountable.

Outsmarting the Avalanche: Circumvent Catastrophe, Conquer Crisis, and Cultivate Culture

Outsmarting the Avalanche: Circumvent Catastrophe, Conquer Crisis, and Cultivate Culture

$31.99

In high-stakes leadership, failure is rarely the result of stupidity or malice. It is the cumulative weight of “rational” decisions, of small concessions in culture, process, and accountability that feel like common sense in the moment but create catastrophic momentum over time.

How do you recognize a disaster when it still looks like a “strategic pivot”?

Fintech veteran Mike Orlando has spent twenty years navigating the boardrooms of Garmin, Visa, and CyberSource. In Outsmarting the Avalanche, he pulls back the curtain on the anatomy of a corporate crisis. Part memoir and part tactical handbook, this executive-level “choose-your-own-adventure” places you at the center of an organizational breakdown.

As the narrative unfolds, you aren’t just a reader. You are the decision-maker. Through fictionalized scenarios based on real-world leadership challenges, you will:

  • Interrupt the Momentum: Identify the logical fallacies hidden within strategies, decks, and leadership “alignment.”
  • Trace the Pattern: Connect modern workplace dynamics to iconic historical failures where the smartest people in the room got it wrong.
  • Audit the Culture: Use sharp, diagnostic frameworks to spot flawed logic before it’s dressed up as common sense.

Whether you are a senior executive refining your strategic intuition or an emerging leader building organizational fluency, Outsmarting the Avalanche is a masterclass in critical thinking.

The most dangerous decisions always sound like common sense. Can you tell the difference?

In the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, crises are not hypothetical—they are inevitable.

Through real-world examples and actionable models, this book explores how leaders can master crisis communication, build effective response teams, uphold scientific integrity, and maintain patient-centric and ethical governance—even in moments of intense scrutiny. It addresses the growing impact of digital media, emerging risks such as AI and cybersecurity, and the evolving role of Medical Affairs as a strategic leader during disruption.

Fear in Organizations

Fear in Organizations

$31.99

Fear is pervasive in today’s organizations—and far more damaging than many leaders realize. Fear of failure. Fear of success. Fear of speaking up. Fear of change. When fear becomes embedded in organizational cultures, it undermines decision-making, accountability, innovation, and trust.

In Fear in Organizations, David D. Van Fleet examines fear not simply as an individual emotion, but as a systemic organizational force that shapes behavior, leadership, and outcomes. Drawing on decades of research, teaching, and real-world experience, he explores how fear develops, how it escalates under conditions of control, uncertainty, and high-stakes objectives, and how it silently erodes workplace effectiveness.

More importantly, this book provides practical insights and tools to help leaders recognize fear-based dynamics and take meaningful action. Managers, executives, and HR professionals will gain guidance on fostering psychological safety, encouraging accountability, and building cultures where clarity, courage, and constructive behavior can thrive.

Mistakes Are Your Capital: Turn Entrepreneurial Errors into Business Opportunities

$34.99

Mistakes in business are inevitable, sometimes by circumstances beyond our control, and more often by our own making. The astute entrepreneur uses mistakes as steppingstones, turning blunders and gaffes into business opportunities, and becoming a sharper entrepreneur in the process.

This book explores business mistakes, identifies them and offers up creative solutions across every business sector, from strategic planning, team building and marketing, to decision-making.

Turning errors into business opportunities separates the successful entrepreneur from one who might be more prone to knee-jerk reactions or wishing problems away.

As a Business Consultant with several decades of experience working with a multitude of businesspeople, managers, planners, dreamers and schemers, Jay Silverberg delivers hands-on counsel across every sector of business. The result is a keen knowledge of business mistakes, and an even keener toolbox of counsel, advice and fixes. As well, Jay Silverberg ‘practices what he preaches’, having founded and spearheaded a number of ventures, all with their share of real-world problematic hiccups as normally experienced by entrepreneurs.

Stories and case studies offered up in this book, including those gleaned from his own entrepreneurial adventures, are an integral part of the process by which readers can learn by example.

Look Up! Solve What Matters

Look Up! Solve What Matters

$34.99

Scrum Masters, Project Managers, Agile Coaches, and Delivery Leaders: You’re probably tired of being questioned, undervalued, dismissed. You know you’re making a difference, but you’re struggling to prove it to the people signing your paycheck. Layoff rumors aren’t just whispers anymore – you’re watching friends and colleagues lose their jobs while facing an increasingly brutal job market.

And despite all this turmoil, one thing remains unchanged: You are an experienced professional who knows your stuff.

The complaints your leaders grumble about–”Agile was supposed to fix this mess” or “Everyone looks busy, but nothing is getting done”–aren’t isolated. They’re persistent grievances pointing to the same underlying issue: sweeping dysfunction that no amount of team improvement can fix.

So, what’s happening?

Let me be blunt: You’ve been solving the wrong problems. See, if most of your energy goes into team-level work while organizational chaos above undermines everything you do, you’ll keep banging your head against the same four walls. Over and over again. This is both exhausting and bad for your head.

But here’s the silver lining: beneath each frustration lies an opportunity in disguise. The delivery professionals who become truly indispensable – the ones who get promoted, funded, and trusted with exciting challenges – are the ones who solve system issues, not just team issues.

Are you ready to join them? This book shows you how.
