New Releases by Raj Sisodia

Bestseller del New York Times Bestseller del Wall Street Journal Apparso su Super Soul Sunday di Oprah Winfrey John Mackey e Raj Sisodia sottopongono ad una serrata critica la narrazione secondo cui il capitalismo sarebbe la fonte di tutti i mali che affliggono la nostra società in quanto sfrutta i lavoratori, inganna i consumatori, genera disuguaglianza, disgrega le comunità locali e distrugge l’ambiente inseguendo una crescita che, alla fine, non può che rivelarsi insostenibile. A questa versione mercantilistica e predatoria del capitalismo, gli autori contrappongono una versione più nobile, che chiamano “Capitalismo consapevole” ed è basata su quattro princìpi fondamentali: Lo scopo di un’azienda consapevole non è creare valore solo per se stessa, ma per l’intera comunità per cui opera: clienti, dipendenti, fornitori, investitori e chiunque sia influenzato a qualunque titolo dalle sue attività. Un’azienda consapevole non ricerca la massimizzazione del profitto ad ogni costo, ma pone al centro delle sue attività il perseguimento di scopi di ordine superiore, che sono il motivo stesso della sua esistenza. Un’azienda consapevole è guidata da leader consapevoli mossi dalla dedizione nei confronti dell’impresa, di tutte le persone su cui essa ha un impatto e del pianeta che noi tutti condividiamo. Un’azienda consapevole possiede una cultura aziendale autentica, innovativa e improntata al rispetto nei confronti degli altri, grazie alla quale tutti i dipendenti possono crescere come individui e sentirsi appagati come persone. In sintesi, secondo gli autori, un capitalismo consapevole può contribuire a creare un mondo in cui miliardi di persone abbiano la possibilità di fiorire e condurre una vita piena di passione, determinazione, amore e creatività.

In our increasingly digital, mobile, and global world, the existing theories of business and economics have lost much of their appeal with the phenomenal rise of Chindia, the reality of Brexit, the turmoil caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, and the seismic shifting of the global center of gravity from west to east. In the area of innovation, the traditional thinking that a developed country, often the US, will come up with the next major innovation, launch at home first, and then take it to other markets does not ring true anymore. Similarly, the world where conglomerates go bargain-hunting for acquisitions in emerging markets has been turned upside-down. This book reveals and illustrates the Global Rule of Three phenomenon, which stipulates that in competitive markets only three companies (which the authors call "generalists") can dominate the market. All other players in the market are specialists. Further, whereas the financial performance of generalists improves as market share increases, specialist companies see a decrease in financial performance as their market share increases, as the latter are margin-driven companies. This theory powerfully captures the evolution of global markets and what executives must do to succeed. It is based on empirical analyses of hundreds of markets and industries in the US and globally. Competitive markets evolve in a predictable fashion across industries and geographies, where every industry goes through a similar lifecycle from beginning to end (or revitalization). From local to regional to national markets, the last stop in the evolution of markets is going global. The pattern is so consistent that it represents a distinct and natural market structure at every level. The authors offer strategies that generalists and specialist should follow to stay competitive as well as twelve expansion strategies for global companies from emerging markets. This book chronicles this global evolution and provides impactful managerial implications for executives and students of marketing and corporate strategy alike.

The image of modern corporations has been shaped by a profits over people approach, but we are at a point where business must take the lead in healing the crises of our time. The Healing Organization shows how corporations can become healing forces. Conscious Capitalism pioneer Raj Sisodia and organizational innovation expert Michael J. Gelb were inspired to write this book because of the epidemic of unnecessary suffering connected with business, including the destruction of the environment; increasing numbers living paycheck-to-paycheck and barely surviving; and rising rates of depression and stress leading to chronic health problems. Based on extensive in-depth interviews and inspiring case studies, Sisodia and Gelb show how companies such as Shake Shack, Hyatt, KIND Healthy Snacks, Eileen Fisher, H-E-B, FIFCO, Jaipur Rugs and DTE Energy are healing their employees, customers, communities and other stakeholders. They represent a diverse sampling of industries and geographies, but they all have significant elements in common, besides being profitable enterprises: Their employees love coming to work. They have passionately loyal customers. They make a significant positive difference to the communities they serve. They preserve and restore the ecosystems in which they operate. The enmity and dividedness between those who champion unfettered capitalism and those who advocate socialism is exacerbating rather than solving our problems. In a world that urgently needs healing on many levels, this is a movement whose time has come. The Healing Organization shows how it can be done, how it is being done, and how you can begin to do it too.

Too many leaders, men and women alike, have bought into the notion of leadership that exclusively emphasizes traditionally ''masculine'' qualities: hierarchical, militaristic, win-at-all-costs. The result has been corruption, environmental degradation, social breakdown, stress, depression and a host of other serious problems. But there is another way, one that restores a balance to this lopsided way of leading. Reaching into ancient spiritual and mythical teachings, Nilima Bhat and Raj Sisodia revive a feminine archetype of leadership: generative, cooperative, creative, empathetic. While these qualities are often thought of as ''feminine'', we all have them. However, for people in leadership positions, they tend to be undervalued and underdeveloped. In the Indian yogic tradition, this feminine principle is recognized as supremely intelligent and responsive. It is personified as the Great Mother or Goddess Shakti and is the source that powers the cycle of life.

Our current one - sided notion of a leader''s power is a root cause of a host of contemporary problems, including social breakdown, environmental degradation, an epidemic of depression, and corruption in business and government. Whether we are male or female, we have been trained to value leadership qualities that are traditionally thought of as masculine: hierarchical, individualistic, militaristic. Reaching into ancient spiritual and mythical teachings, the authors revive a feminine archetype of leadership: generative, cooperative, creative, empathetic. In the Indian yogic tradition, these qualities are associated with Shakti, the source of creation, sustenance and transformation that powers the cycle of life. Bhat and Sisodia seek to restore a long - lost balance, for men and women alike, of masculine and feminine energies. All leaders should learn to value and understand ''''''''Shakti Leadership'''''''', meaning acting from a consciousness of life - giving creativity and sustainability to achieve self - mastery and be of selfless service. When leaders of both sexes learn to embrace this mindset, we can restore sanity, elevate humanity and heal the planet by evolving consciously together.
