This book (2014) is about the “soft edge” – that is, the human side – of business. If you don’t want to be left foundering in the wake of your competitors, your company needs something more – more creativity and flexibility, more passion. The soft edge is the wellspring of such attributes. Your company’s soft edge might seem elusive at first, but remember: finding it is absolutely critical for long-lasting success.

4.5 (347 ratings)
Late Bloomers (2019) explores why modern society is obsessed with early achievement. It explains the damaging effects a super-charged education can have on young people’s mental health, as well as how our family, our peers, and the media influence the life paths we take. Drawing on his own experiences, author Rich Karlgaard suggests that blooming later in life is not something to be ashamed of, but something to be celebrated instead.
