Your mindset may be the only thing standing between you and your potential. Break free from the beliefs that hold you back.As a leader, do you find yourself frustrated, wondering why employees don''t meet expectations, peers are slow to act, or pressure from your boss falls unfairly on your shoulders? It''s easy to point a finger at others and double down on getting results. But have you ever considered that the problem might not be them—that it might be you?Through countless hours coaching executives over the past twenty years, C-suite adviser Muriel M. Wilkins has pinpointed the biggest reason behind these common leadership challenges: hidden blockers. These unconscious beliefs can actively stall progress if leaders aren''t aware of their existence, preventing them from seeing a situation clearly, solving problems effectively, and advancing their careers.In Leadership Unblocked, Wilkins reveals seven key beliefs that hold leaders back, from "I know I''m right" to "I need to be involved" to "I don''t belong here." Combining illustrative and powerful coaching conversations and research from the fields of neuroscience, leadership, and adult development theory, Wilkins offers a self-coaching guide for identifying, unpacking, and breaking through these barriers.By using the practical advice in this book, leaders ...

Sir Hubert Wilkins is one of the most remarkable Australians who ever lived.The son of pioneer pastoralists in South Australia, Hubert studied engineering before moving on to photography. In 1908 he sailed for England and a job producing films with the Gaumont Film Co. Brave and bold, he became a polar expeditioner, a brilliant war photographer, a spy in the Soviet Union, a pioneering aviator-navigator, a death-defying submariner - all while being an explorer and chronicler of the planet and its life forms that would do Vasco da Gama and Sir David Attenborough proud. As a WW1 photographer he was twice awarded the Military Cross for bravery under fire, the only Australian photographer in any war to be decorated. He explored the Antarctic with Sir Ernest Shackleton, led a groundbreaking ornithological study in Australia and was knighted in 1928 for his aviation exploits, but many more astounding achievements would follow. Wilkins'' quest for knowledge and polar explorations were lifelong passions and his missions to polar regions aboard the submarine Nautilus the stuff of legend.With masterful storytelling skill, Peter FitzSimons illuminates the life of Hubert Wilkins and his incredible achievements.

Wild and strong. A force to be reckoned with. But ever since her younger brother was killed in a violent mugging, she has led a very different life: quiet and cautious, seeing danger everywhere.

Lesley Chan Downer retraces BashoÂ’s pilgrimage through Japan, blending travel, haiku, and contemporary reflections.After eight years working in Japan, immersing herself in its language and literature, Lesley Chan Downer set off in the footsteps of Matsuo Basho, JapanÂ’s most cherished poet, to explore the countryÂ’s remote northern provinces. BashoÂ’s pilgrimage to find the landscapes that had inspired the great medieval poets gave birth to JapanÂ’s most famous travel book, rich in strange imagery and sometimes comic encounters along the road. In this intriguing cross-threading of journeys, perceptions and exquisite haiku, Lesley creates her own funny, loving and honest portrayal of contemporary Japan. As she walks, she finds at one and the same time a drab post-industrial landscape of concrete and cable, but also a land still full of the old enchantments. Nights in thatched highland villages and sake-drenched poetry sessions encourage her to see for herself if any of the legendary hermit-priests still survive in the sacred mountains of the north.

Svůj první koncert odehráli Rollin' Stones v londýnském jazzovém klubu Marquee dne 12. července 1962. Časem přibylo „g", rozhořela se jiskra a jejich osud byl zpečetěn. Pětice bílých britských kluků si vytkla za cíl hrát hudbu černé Ameriky. Přestože je odsuzovali za mravní ohrožování mládeže, Rolling Stones vytvořili jedny z nejúchvatnějších hudebních nahrávek všech dob. Dnes jsou snad ještě hlasitější a vlivnější než kdykoli dříve - Kameny sice obrůstají mechem, ale valí se dál. Jak se z největších odpůrců establishmentu stala globální značka, kterou zná celý svět? A za jakou cenu? Lesley-Ann Jonesová sleduje tuto rozporuplnou, znepokojivou a nezničitelnou kapelu v obdobích naděje, slávy i exilu přes léta, kdy se z ní stal moloch, až k dnešnímu zúčtování s rockem… Tady jsou Rolling Stones, jak je ještě neznáte - hodní, zlí a často oškliví. Lesley-Ann Jonesová je novinářka, moderátorka, hlasatelka a autorka životopisných bestsellerů jako Proč zahynul John Lennon? Konečný portrét hudební legendy a Freddie Mercury: Bohémská rapsodie jednoho života.

From Sunday Times bestselling author Lesley-Ann JonesOn 12 July 1962, the Rollin' Stones performed their first-ever gig at London's Marquee jazz club. Down the line, a 'g' was added, a spark was lit and their destiny was sealed. No going back.These five white British kids set out to play the music of black America. They honed a style that bled bluesy undertones into dark insinuations of women, sex and drugs. Denounced as 'corruptors of youth' and 'messengers of the devil', they created some of the most thrilling music ever recorded. Now, their sound and attitude seem louder and more influential than ever. Elvis is dead and the Beatles are over, but Jagger and Richards bestride the world. The Stones may be gathering moss, but on they roll. Yet how did the ultimate anti-establishment misfits become the global brand we know today? Who were the casualties, and what are the forgotten legacies? Can the artist ever be truly divisible from the art? Lesley-Ann Jones's new history tracks this contradictory, disturbing, granitic and unstoppable band through hope, glory and exile, into the juggernaut years and beyond into rock's ongoing reckoning . . . where the Stones seem more at odds than ever ...

*** By the Sunday Times bestselling author of BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY ***From mod folk artist to flower power pixie elfin to the king of glam rockers, Marc Bolan was the ultimate chameleon. His far-reaching musical and stylistic influence is more relevant today than ever with hits such as ''Ride A White Swan'', ''Children Of The Revolution'', ''Get It On'' and ''Hot Love'' as fresh and exhilarating as when first released. At the peak of his popularity during his lifetime Bolan was outselling Jimi Hendrix and The Who, and yet relatively little is really known about the hypnotic, enigmatic 20th century boy turned 21st century icon. At last, in the 35th anniversary year of his tragic death, Marc Bolan represents the definite biography. Here rock biographer, Lesley-Ann Jones, paints a meticulous portrait of the T-Rex front man. From his childhood growing up in Hackney to his untimely death at the age of 29, Bolan''s life was one of relentless experimentation and metamorphoses. Hallucinogenic drugs, wizardry and levitation, alcoholism, tax evasion and a spectacular fall from grace were to punctuate his short life, as he continued to strive to reinvent himself and his music over and over again.
