Rough Diamond
In life, you will most likely regret that you didn't do more of what you love. You will likely feel as though you spent your professional life getting up, going to the office and living the same day over and over, week after week, year after year, decade after decade. Ironically, it's the same people who wind up regretting not doing more who spend their careers resisting change and shutting down creative ideas. I know because I spent nearly two decades as a change agent in a large advertising agency. If you found your way to this book, it's because you have a fire in your belly, a hunger for change, and a belief in the transformative power of disruption. If you found this book, it's probably because you know it's time to shake things up but you're not quite sure how. This book puts you on notice. You have it within your power to do more and be more, and I'm going to give you the tools to start. This is your opportunity to change your destiny, so you are the statistical anomaly - the Rough Diamond - who shines bright, even if unpolished, and savours each day for the opportunity it presents to innovate, connect and disrupt the status quo.

Blood Diamonds
First discovered in 1930, the diamonds of Sierra Leone have funded one of the most savage rebel campaigns in modern history. These "blood diamonds" are smuggled out of West Africa and sold to legitimate diamond merchants in London, Antwerp, and New York, often with the complicity of the international diamond industry. Eventually, these very diamonds find their way into the rings and necklaces of brides and spouses the world over. Blood Diamonds is the gripping tale of how the diamond smuggling works, how the rebel war has effectively destroyed Sierra Leone and its people, and how the policies of the diamond industry - institutionalized in the 1880s by the De Beers cartel - have allowed it to happen. Award-winning journalist Greg Campbell traces the deadly trail of these diamonds, many of which are brought to the world market by fanatical enemies. These repercussions of diamond smuggling are felt far beyond the borders of the poor and war-ridden country of Sierra Leone, and the consequences of overlooking this African tragedy are both shockingly deadly and unquestionably global. Updated with a new epilogue.
