The Innovator’s Solution: Creating and Sustaining Successful Growth

A seminal work by bestselling author Clayton M. Christensen.

In his international bestseller The Innovator’s Dilemma, Clayton M. Christensen exposed this crushing paradox behind the failure of many industry leaders: by placing too much focus on pleasing their most profitable customers, these firms actually paved the way for their own demise by ignoring the disruptive technologies that aggressively evolved to displace them. In The Innovator’s Solution, Christensen and coauthor Michael E. Raynor help all companies understand how to become disruptors themselves.

Clay Christensen (author of the award-winning Harvard Business Review article, “How Will You Measure Your Life?”) and Raynor not only reveal that innovation is more predictable than most managers have come to believe, they also provide helpful advice on the business decisions crucial to truly disruptive growth. Citing in-depth research and theories tested in hundreds of companies across many industries, the authors identify the processes that create successful innovation—and they show managers how to tailor their strategies to the changing circumstances of a dynamic world.

The Innovator’s Solution is an important addition to any innovation library.

Chakra Therapy: For Personal Growth & Healing (Llewellyn’s New Age)

You are an energy being. Your thoughts, feelings, and actions are energy events—to know who you are and why you think, feel, and act the way you do, you must know yourself energetically.

Each of the seven chakras of the human body processes and distributes energy. The chakras transform the energy into sensations comprehensible to us, namely, thought, emotion, and physical sensation. Human problems—spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical—are caused by the inability to radiate energy freely due to blockages in our energy systems.

This practical, easy-to-use self help book by renowned healer Keith Sherwood teaches you how to work with your chakras to release energy blockages for improved health. You’ll learn techniques for increasing your level of energy, and for transmuting unhealthy energies into healthy ones, to bring you back into harmony with yourself, your loved ones, and the world in which you live.

One Day My Soul Just Opened Up: 40 Days and 40 Nights Toward Spiritual Strength and Personal Growth

One Day My Soul Just Opened Up is a program of inspiration and motivation that will help you work through problems and improve your emotional and spiritual health. Through exercises and readings, Iyanla provides you with the tools to tap into your strengths and make your dreams come true. One Day My Soul Just Opened Up will open your mind, heart, and soul to the truth of your identity as a creative and powerful being.Ordained minister and “spiritual life counselor” Iyanla Vanzant doesn’t know the exact moment when her soul opened up “and the spirit of the divine entered [her] body.” But she will always remember the key insight that opened the door to her soul and simultaneously locked the door to her insanity: “If you know who walks beside you, you can never be afraid.” This is the premise from which Vanzant has launched her enormously successful 40-day, spiritual self-help program. One Day My Soul Just Opened Up is designed as day-by-day journal/workbook to help readers believe in a divine presence while pondering daily spiritual lessons such as simplicity, peace, compassion, and nonjudgement.

The charismatic Vanzant (whom Oprah Winfrey considers to be one of the world’s most admirable spiritual leaders) has a gift for humble, tell-it-like-it-is talk. She is also a wise and warm soul, eager to help others trust in love and find a relationship with God in order to get on with their lives. Readers especially like her daily list of inspirations titled “Let Me Remember.” For example, under day 23, “When You Feel Angry,” she uses the list to remind readers: “All things work to bring me healing”; “Forgiveness will provide relief and release”; and “Love will heal anything that is not an expression of love.” –Gail Hudson
