Leadership is the habit of making good choices. Even in difficult and uncertain circumstances, the most effective leaders focus their attention and overcome entrenched patterns of behavior to push an organization to new heights of success. This capability is no fluke: the latest research on the brain shows that we can pinpoint the mental activity associated with it--and cultivate it for our benefit. In this book, Art Kleiner, a strategy expert; Jeffrey Schwartz, a research psychiatrist; and Josie Thomson, an executive coach, give a transformative explanation of how cutting-edge neuroscience can help business leaders set a course toward better management. Mapping the functions of a manager onto established patterns of mental activity, they identify crucial brain circuits and their parallels in organizational culture. Strategic leaders, they show, play the role of wise advocates able to go beyond day-to-day transactional behavior to a longer-term, broader perspective that articulates their organization's deeper purpose. True leaders can play this influencer role in an organization because they have cultivated similar self-reflective habits in their own minds. Providing a powerful guide to decision strategies and their consequences, The Wise Advocate helps managers find their own inner voice and then make that voice ring out loud and clear, with a four-step program for practice and catalytic implications for management strategy, executive education, and business results.Binding Type: Hardcover

Comfortable pillows
Color: White, Size: King (Pack of 2)
I bought the king size and they are like a small body pillow. They’re soft n squishy which I like but yet provide the right amount of support. I’ve bought these twice and the 2nd set seemed a little less filled than the first but still comfortable. I would buy again.

Love the new pillows! Even though there smaller than my last larger pillows. I would recommend these pillows if you do just want a smaller fluffy ones.

The king size pillows do not offer the same firmness and comfort as the standard size.
Color: White, Size: King (Pack of 2)
I buy a lot from from Amazon and this is my first negative review as this was one of my biggest disappointments. I have bought 7 sets of this Basic pillow in the Standard size over the past 4 years, for my home and my boyfriends, using them both to sleep on and for my pillow shams. I love these pillows and my guests do too, best sleep ever and I have tried a number of expensive pillows prior to this. So when I recently purchased my first king size bed, I bought two sets of the king size pillow of this same brand, and I hate them. They are not the same as the standard size as they are flat, and no matter how much I tried to fluff them up, they fall flat in filling and firmness. After a few restless nights using my new king size pillows, I used the standard pillows I purchased in the past and there is definitely a difference.
I see where there are different reviews/opinions on this, but this has been my experience. I will be complaining to Amazon, though not sure there is anything they can do since I used them.
