David and Goliath (2013)

Bestseller author Malcolm Gladwell explores how we understand and change our worlds.

A shepherd boy from ancient Palestine felled a mighty warrior using nothing more than a stone. Ever since then the names of “David” and “Goliath” have stood for battles between small teams and large companies. David’s victory was unlikely and unexpected. He shouldn’t have won. Or should he have? Malcolm Gladwell examines the power of the underdog, and shows how adversity shapes our lives.

David and Goliath challenges how we think about obstacles, disadvantages, discrimination, coping with disabilities, losing parents, attending mediocre schools, suffering from any number of other seemingly negative experiences.

“Drawing upon examples from business, sports, culture and cutting edge psychology, David and Goliath is the most practical and provocative Malcolm Gladwell has ever published.”

The Book Guide® Editor

Gladwell starts by telling the real story of what occurred between the giant and the young shepherd boy so many years ago. From there, David and Goliat examine Northern Ireland’s Troubles; the minds of cancer researchers; murder and the high costs associated with revenge; and the dynamics of successful versus unsuccessful classrooms – all to illustrate how much of what is good and important in the world emerges from what often appears to be suffering and adversity.

The Power of Now (2000)

In one of his greatest works Eckhart Tolle teaches us the real meaning of spirituality. He teaches us the importance of the present moment. Through the recognition of the ego he makes us aware of how it destroys our lives. We exist only in the present; our past and the future are mental constructs. It is a shame that our enjoyment of the present is so often ruined by regrets about the past and worries about the future. By being more intensely focused on the present, we can be more content and more fulfilled.

In this incredibly life-changing lecture, Dr.Brené Brown helps people to see the beauty that exists in vulnerability. Vulnerability is different from weakness. We often associate vulnerability with feelings we don't want to experience, such as fear, shame and uncertainty. Yet we too often forget that vulnerability is also the source of joy, belonging, creativity, authenticity, and love; and that when we dare to let down our guard, we open ourselves to new experiences that bring purpose and significance to our lives.

The Likeability Trap (2019)

This book explores likability as a proxy for unconscious bias and gender discrimination. It also offers constructive ways for women to reframe so-called feedback from others that focuses solely on style or presentation, and ways to change your mindset from one of likability to that of relatability. The bottom line: It calls for women to be confident, advocate for themselves, challenge stereotypes and bias, and not be afraid to walk away when their personal, ethical, or moral code is undermined.
