    Sundar Pichai’s appointment was hardly an unexpected one. Pichai is a man known as much for his veritable Midas touch with every product he has developed or led for Google – Chrome, Chrome OS and Android, to name just a few – as for his superlative people skills and open-minded approach to innovation. Yet, the company’s decision to restructure its product lines and appoint Pichai as the head of a leaner, more focused Google, has raised inevitable questions: • What does Pichai’s role augur for the future of the tech giant? • Will Google consolidate its position for existing products or will they focus on creating new ones? • And will Pichai transform the organization that Schmidt, Page and Brin created and led, or confirm the belief of a minority of naysayers that he is not yet ready for this daunting role? Pichai: The Future of Google provides answers to these questions while throwing light on Sundar Pichai’s childhood and education; his entry into the tech world and quick rise up the ranks in Google; and his key contributions as a leader and tech-guru to Google’s most successful properties. Timely and insightful, this book offers a rare glimpse into the fascinating ecosystem of a path-breaking company and shows us what it takes to be a dynamic leader in the 21st century.

    In light of twelve years of spearheading research, Dr. Brené Brown disperses the social myth that powerlessness is shortcoming and contends that it is, in truth, our most precise measure of valor. Dark colored clarifies how powerlessness is both the center of troublesome feelings like dread, sadness, and dissatisfaction, and the origin of adoration, having a place, satisfaction, sympathy, development, and innovativeness. She expresses: "When we stop ourselves from powerlessness, we remove ourselves from the encounters that convey reason and importance to our lives." Brave Greatly isn't tied in with winning or losing. It's about valor. In reality as we know it where "never enough" overwhelms and feeling anxious has turned out to be second nature, helplessness is subversive. Awkward. It's even somewhat unsafe now and again. What's more, beyond a shadow of a doubt, putting ourselves out there implies there's a far more serious danger of getting censured or feeling hurt. In any case, when we advance back and analyze our lives, we will find that nothing is as awkward, unsafe, and pernicious as remaining outwardly of our lives looking in and pondering what it would resemble on the off chance that we had the valor to venture into the field—regardless of whether it's another relationship, a vital gathering, the imaginative procedure, or a troublesome family discussion. Brave Greatly is a training and an intense new vision for giving ourselves a chance to be seen.

    From his early days as an educator and activist to his current position as President and CE-Yo of Stonyfield Farm, the world's largest organic yogurt company, Hirshberg's positive outlook has inspired thousands of people to recognize their ability to make the world a better place. In Stirring It Up, Hirshberg calls on individuals to realize their power to effect change in the marketplace -- "the power of one" -- while proving that environmental commitment makes for a healthier planet and a healthier bottom line. Drawing from his 25 years' experience growing Stonyfield Farm from a 7-cow start-up, as well as the examples of like-minded companies, such as Newman's Own, Patagonia, Wal-Mart and Timberland, Hirshberg presents stunning evidence that business not only can save the planet, but is able to simultaneously deliver higher growth and superior profits as well. Hirshberg illustrates his points with practical information and advice, as well as engaging anecdotes from what he calls "the bad old days" of his yogurt company: how a power outage left him milking cows by hand, how a dumpster fire revealed the need for better packaging, and his camel manure taste test challenge to a local shock jock. He also describes hands-on grassroots marketing strategies -- printing yogurt lids with provocative, politically charged messages, handing out thousands of free samples to subway commuters to thank them for using public transit, and devising the country's first organic vending machine -- explaining how these approaches make a much more powerful impact on consumers than traditional advertising. An inspiring book for business owners and managers as well as anyone interested in saving the environment, Stirring It Up demonstrates how companies can work to save the planet, while achieving greater profits and satisfaction, and how we can all use the power of conscious consumption to encourage green corporate behavior.
