Throughout the 2016 campaign, Trump conjured images of American strength and culture when small towns boomed with industry, mom and pop shops bustled, and people said, ĀMerry Christmas!ā
The media scoffed at Trumpās vision and the people who supported him; they were blinded by the Clinton machine. But their eyes were opened after Trump won 62 million votes and the Oval Office. Even Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan said, ĀDonald Trump heard a voice in this country that no one else heard.ā As Trump says inĀ Time to Get Tough, ĀIāve built businesses across the globe. Iāve dealt with foreign leaders. Iāve created tens of thousands of American jobs. My whole life has been about executing deals and making real moneyĀmassive money. Thatās what I do for a living: make big things happenĀ ā
Trump is about to make the biggest deals of his life, and heās going to make them for America! From reversing lax immigration policies to eliminating regulations that restrict small businesses, Donald Trump understands that America Ādoesnāt need cowardice, it needs courage.ā

Power in the Highest Degree: Professionals and the Rise of a New Mandarin Order
Lawyer, doctor, scientist–these are the jobs Americans commonly cite when asked to list the most prestigious occupations. The word “professional” today implies expertise, authority, and excellence. To do a job professionally is to do it well. Yet in a society in which knowledge has
become a prized asset and an advanced degree the ticket to wealth and power, the rise of professionalism has a darker, more ominous side.
Power in the Highest Degree, one of the most comprehensive studies of professionals ever undertaken, exposes professionalism as a double-edged sword; it illustrates how experts have come to “own” and control knowledge, much like the wealthy control capital, thereby transforming capitalist and
socialist society, both for better and for worse. Knowledge long predates money as a source of power and wealth in human society, and professionals are only the most recent in a long succession of powerful knowledge classes that have included shaman, witchdoctors, and the Confucian mandarins who
ruled China for over a thousand years.
Drawing on interviews with over 1,000 practicing professionals, the authors show how, by dispensing self-interested and morally colored judgements as scientific truth, modern professionals are consolidating a monopoly over what passes for objective knowledge. Experts discredit the ordinary
knowledge of the general public to generate a vast market of dependent clients. The result is a powerful professional class that creates vital new knowledge and life-saving services, but also wields growing influence over a population deeply insecure about its ability to manage private and public
affairs without “expert” guidance.
This sweeping study also reveals that more and more experts are abandoning private practice to work for corporations, becoming junior partners in a new “Mandarin capitalism.” While often outspoken advocates of a more socially responsible business world, professionals have joined big business to
produce one of the most pronounced divisions of mental and manual work in history, creating a new dispossessed majority, the uncredentialed. We learn of an experiment at Polaroid to give machine operators more responsibility which is cancelled when managers and engineers decided that they “just
didn’t want operators that qualified.” The authors argue that, as this new “mandarin” class radically transforms the social order, it helps to reform some of the traditional scourges of the business world, but also poses a new threat to equality in America. To reverse this trend, they propose a
post-professional society that de-emphasizes skill hierarchies and substantially democratizes knowledge.
A bold and incisive new work of social criticism, this book provides a fascinating look at the modern professional and provokes Americans to think in a new way about democracy in the age of experts.KSh800.00 -
The Fifth Discipline: The Art & Practice of The Learning Organization
This revised edition of Peter Sengeās bestselling classic, The Fifth Discipline, is based on fifteen years of experience in putting the bookās ideas into practice. As Senge makes clear, in the long run the only sustainable competitive advantage is your organizationās ability to learn faster than the competition. The leadership stories in the book demonstrate the many ways that the core ideas in The Fifth Discipline, many of which seemed radical when first published in 1990, have become deeply integrated into peopleās ways of seeing the world and their managerial practices.
In The Fifth Discipline, Senge describes how companies can rid themselves of the learning ādisabilitiesā that threaten their productivity and success by adopting the strategies of learning organizationsāones in which new and expansive patterns of thinking are nurtured, collective aspiration is set free, and people are continually learning how to create results they truly desire.
The updated and revised Currency edition of this business classic contains over one hundred pages of new material based on interviews with dozens of practitioners at companies like BP, Unilever, Intel, Ford, HP, Saudi Aramco, and organizations like Roca, Oxfam, and The World Bank. It features a new Foreword about the success Peter Senge has achieved with learning organizations since the bookās inception, as well as new chapters on Impetus (getting started), Strategies, Leadersā New Work, Systems Citizens, and Frontiers for the Future.
Mastering the disciplines Senge outlines in the book will:
ā¢ Reignite the spark of genuine learning driven by people focused on what truly matters to them
ā¢ Bridge teamwork into macro-creativity
ā¢ Free you of confining assumptions and mindsets
ā¢ Teach you to see the forest and the trees
ā¢ End the struggle between work and personal time
