Enterprise Portfolio Governance
This book argues that the appropriate application of the principles and practices of corporate governance to organisational portfolio, program, and projects (‘3P’) governance brings about highly engaged, knowledgeable, and effective governance practices, which in turn substantially improves business case success. The book addresses all three layers of portfolio, program, and project within an integrated governance framework, and it answers the fundamental questions everyone involved in 3P governance must address: What governance structures (processes, functions, roles, responsibilities) need to be in place to ensure optimal portfolio investment outcomes? How do I know our portfolios, as structured, will deliver expected benefits and value? What should senior management be doing, acting in their portfolio governance roles, to deliver great portfolio outcomes? The book introduces and describes a number of important frameworks and models, designed not just for their practical application, but also to be easily comprehended by senior executives not comfortable with traditional ‘project speak’.
Revolution in Rojava
"Surrounded by enemies including ISIS and hostile Turkish forces, the people in Syria’s Rojava region are carving out one of the most radically progressive societies on the planet. Visitors have been astounded by the success of their project, a communally organised democracy which considers women’s equality indispensable, has a deep-reaching ecological policies, and rejects reactionary nationalist ideology. This form of organization, labeled democratic confederalism, is both fiercely anti-capitalist and boasts a self-defense capacity which is keeping ISIS from their gates. Drawing on their own firsthand experiences of working and fighting in the region, the authors provide the first detailed account of a revolutionary experiment and a new vision of politics and society in the Middle East and beyond"--Back cover.
Paralysis
Life is changing for Jed Waters. He is losing his girlfriend, there are rumors that he is losing his job, and he fears that he might be losing his mind. Jed begins to experience vivid dreams and nightmares with bouts of sleep paralysis, accompanied by the appearance of a dark entity that reminds him of long forgotten events from his childhood. Jed's dreams start to coincide with the deaths of people around him, and also begin to leach into his waking world. Jed must reach out to those around him and dig into buried events from his past to determine if he is indeed losing his mind, or if there is something more sinister at work. The difference between the two could mean the difference between Jed saving just himself, or all of humanity, from being lost forever.

Consistently Mediocre
This book is a compilation of stories, anecdotes, and experiences I have been the cause of, the result of, the victim of, a witness to, and a part of. They are all true. Some are unbelievable, some are unrealistic, and some are just a part of everyday life. However, every one of them, in some way, shape, or form, gave me the lessons, the knowledge, and experience I have hopefully passed on to others. This is not a self-help book or success manual. It is not a how-to book by any means. It is, however, real-life experiences and stories that hopefully will let you look at things a little differently, change your perception, and show you how to apply it not only to your business, but to your everyday life. Enjoy!
Revolution in Rojava
Given the widespread violence and suffering in Syria, it's not unreasonable that outsiders look at the situation as unrelentingly awful. And while the reality of the devastation is undeniable, there is reason for hope in at least one small pocket of the nation: the cantons of Rojava in Syrian Kurdistan, where in the wake of war people are quietly building one of the most progressive societies in the world today. Revolution in Rojava tells the story of Rojava's groundbreaking experiment in what they call democratic confederalism, a communally organized democracy that is fiercely anti-capitalist and committed to female equality, while rejecting reactionary nationalist ideologies. Rooted in the ideas of imprisoned Kurdish leader Abdullah Ocalan, the system is built on effective gender quotas, bottom-up democratic structures, far-sighted ecological policies, and a powerful militancy that has allowed the region to keep ISIS at bay. This first full-length study of democratic developments in Rojava tells an extraordinary and powerfully hopeful story of a little-known battle for true freedom in dark times.
