Summary of Leaders Eat Last by Simon Sinek: Includes Analysis , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 29min
Leaders Eat Last by Simon Sinek advocates for a leadership style that focuses on serving others rather than pursuing shareholder goals or personal interests. Modern trends in leadership prioritize profits and executive bonuses over creating a healthy environment for employees. Leaders who think of themselves as serving their employees like family can increase job satisfaction and engagement, which reduces stress and increases productivity because employees feel secure. For example, in the US Marine Corps, the lowest-ranking soldiers eat first and the leaders eat last to ensure that everyone gets a chance to eat and feel cared for. The best leaders create a circle of safety that encompasses the entire company, which employees can extend to the customers they serve. Poor leaders extend that circle of safety only to their immediate supporters, which increases stress for those outside the circle who may believe that their jobs are not secure.

Summary of In Trump We Trust: by Ann Coulter: Includes Analysis , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 21min
In Trump We Trust is conservative pundit Ann Coulter's wholehearted endorsement of Donald Trump in his bid for the presidency in 2016. While Coulter acknowledges that Trump may not be the polished candidate of the Republican Party's dreams, she supports him as the only person who can save conservative America and bring its values into the White House. Given the current media ecology, only a person with the audacity and resources of a man like Trump will be able to finally speak for the average, Republican voter who has long felt alienated by the GOP's image as the establishment party of the rich and well-connected. Without needing to rely on the traditional funding sources for Republican candidates, Trump has been able to make statements that no other GOP leader would dare say aloud, despite how popular these sentiments have proven to be with voters.

Summary, Analysis & Review of Peter J. D'Adamo's Eat Right 4 Your Type by Instaread , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 23min
Eat Right 4 Your Type by Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo, with Catherine Whitney, is a detailed diet book based on D'Adamo's groundbreaking research that links an individual's blood type to foods that support overall health and wellness. The Blood Type Diet is not a cure-all for disease - there are many factors, such as genetics and environment that play into the development of illnesses. However, eating according to blood type can help people boost the body's natural immune systems and metabolic functioning so that disease is less likely to occur and a healthy weight can be achieved and maintained. Blood is vital to a person's well-being; a single drop contains the essential blueprint of an individual's genetic code. In terms of identity, blood type is more relevant to diet than race or ethnicity. There are four blood types: Type O, Type A, Type B, and Type AB.

Summary, Analysis & Review of Christopher H. Achen's & Larry M. Bartels's Democracy for Realists by Instaread , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 28min
Democracy for Realists: Why Elections Do Not Produce Responsive Government offers a critique of conventional wisdom surrounding popular theories of democracy. Authors Christopher Achen and Larry Bartels argue that the public, journalists, and political scientists rely on a group of common-sense understandings of democracy. The authors collectively refer to these beliefs as the "folk theory" of democracy. The folk theory presumes that people behave as engaged citizens and that election outcomes reflect public policy preferences. This assumption is inaccurate and misleading, and therefore presents a danger to democracy. Political scientists have tried in various ways to validate or systematize the intuitions on which the folk theory in based. Anthony Downs put forward a spatial model of voting, which supposes that individuals vote for the politicians who are closest to their own policy preferences.

Summary of Influence: by Robert B. Cialdini | Includes Analysis , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 23min
Preview: Robert B. Cialdini's Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion examines the compliance methods by which marketers, salespeople, and others, such as cult leaders, pressure people into doing things they would not otherwise do. There are six basic compliance tools: reciprocity, consistency, social proof, liking, authority, and scarcity. Listeners can learn specific techniques to resist each. Humans rely on standard responses in many situations. For example, when one person gives another a gift, the recipient automatically feels indebted and is inclined to reciprocate. These mental shortcuts are usually helpful both to the individual and to society as a whole. Reciprocity helps facilitate mutual aid, which in turn helps solidify social bonds. These bonds in turn strengthen both the group and the individuals within it.... Please Note: This is key takeaways and analysis of the book and not the original book.
