Speaking of insurrections, all eyes might do to dwell upon   ANTARCTICA: THE THE GLOBAL WARNING, published by Earth Aware. Sebastian Copeland’s eloquent photographs tell an urgent tale that begs our activism; a foreword by Mikhail Gorbachev and preface by actor Leonardo DiCaprio press the point further: the ice is melting. An accompanying DVD with interviews, footage and music by Damien Rice should widen this book’s appeal.      -Publishers Weekly

The best leadership today in the twenty-first century is authentic, not patriarchal, heroic, or fast-charging as leadership was practiced previously.  The largest study on leadership development based on 125 in-depth interviews with business leaders from across the country and different industry as well as non-profits, TRUE NORTH (Jossey-Bass, March 2007 $27.95) demonstrates that it is internal development, understanding and maintaining your authentic self that leads to long-term lasting success.
