Think Digital, Beyond Digital: How to Lead Inside by Stepping Outside

$37.99

Most companies talk about digital transformation. Few actually transform.

Think Digital, Beyond Digital isn’t another book about technology, it’s a book about clarity, simplification, and change. Rui Pedro Silva reveals why 70% of transformations fail and what the best leaders and organizations do differently: they stop chasing trends and start thinking beyond digital while going digital.

After two decades leading global change in companies such as Puma, adidas, and A.P. Moller–Maersk, Rui Pedro Silva delivers a field-tested roadmap to make your business truly digital first, by thinking it from the outside in and building it from the inside out. He combines hard-won executive experience with peer-reviewed academic research to bring structure and simplicity to what often feels chaotic.

Through real stories, from small shops that went global to giants that lost their way, Rui Pedro Silva shows how to connect strategy with behavior and vision with execution using his signature frameworks: ASCEND, FRAME, SCRIPT, ENRICH, CORE5, and the 4-Floor Model. Each one turns complexity into clarity and change into measurable progress.

If you’re tired of buzzwords and want to truly lead transformation, not just manage it, this book is your blueprint. Whether you run a startup or a multinational, it will help you see your organization as it really is, understand your market and customers, align people around what matters most, and build momentum that lasts.

Because digital transformation isn’t about being the most technical.
It’s about being the most ready to change.

Megaproject Development and Decision Making: Strategies for Successful Projects and Investments

Megaproject Development and Decision Making: Strategies for Successful Projects and Investments

$41.99

Why do so many billion-dollar megaprojects fail, and how can leaders prevent it?

Megaproject Development and Decision Making provides the answers. Drawing on decades of global leadership across energy, mining, refining, and infrastructure, Akin Oni reveals that the destiny of megaprojects is shaped not in execution, but long before, during development, evaluation, governance, and decision-making.

This book dismantles the myths that delays, cost overruns, and underperformance are inevitable. Instead, it shows how weak evaluations, poor risk discipline, and fragmented stakeholder alignment doom projects before approval. With clarity and conviction, Oni equips leaders with the tools and foresight to change the narrative.

Inside, readers will discover:

  • How to evaluate megaprojects effectively and make disciplined investment choices.
  • Strategic decision-making frameworks for capital projects.
  • Proven risk management approaches to mitigate failure triggers, early.
  • Best practices in project governance and accountability.
  • How to embed ethics, sustainability, and long-term value into delivery.

Far more than a technical manual, this is a call to action. Megaprojects are not just technical or financial undertakings; they are ethical commitments, vehicles for long-term value, and legacies that shape economies and societies.

Whether you are a project manager, executive, or investor, this book challenges you to lead differently, anticipate wisely, decide boldly, and deliver results that endure.

The Age of Global Change: Culture, Power, and Identity

The Age of Global Change: Culture, Power, and Identity

$34.99

The Age of Global Change provides an in-depth examination of the major forces reshaping societies in the twenty-first century, by referring to themes of demography, globalization, cultural change, inequality, governance, health, and sustainability.

It highlights how rapid population growth, urbanization, migration, and shifts in religious and linguistic patterns are transforming the social fabric worldwide. At the same time, globalization has brought about profound cultural shifts, fostering individualism, gender equality, and diversity discourses, while also provoking nationalist and populist reactions.

This book discusses the emergence of a global culture defined by hyperconnectivity, symbolic consumption, and the post-truth condition, alongside the rise of contested phenomena such as wokeism that reflect deeper struggles over identity and values. In international affairs, the book situates these changes within a broader geopolitical realignment, where the decline of Western dominance is matched by the ascent of multipolar power centers, particularly in Asia. Economic inequality and corporate concentration of power are shown to exacerbate global divides, fueled by financialization, tax evasion, and crony capitalism. Health and sustainability are positioned as defining challenges of the century.

From pandemics to mental health crises, and from climate change to ecological degradation, these issues highlight the vulnerabilities and interdependencies of an interconnected world. The author argues that humanity is undergoing a paradoxical transformation, marked by both fragmentation and integration, the persistence of traditions amid modernization, and escalating risks accompanied by new possibilities. Ultimately, the century will be shaped not only by crises but also by opportunities for innovation, cultural synthesis, and collective action.
