Since 1980, America has been run by a corporate regime that has co-opted both political parties and shifted sovereignty from "we the people" to trans-national corporations. The result has been job insecurity for millions of workers, debts as far as the eye can see, and a dangerous quest for global domination. Democracy itself has been undermined and the Constitution weakened. This regime must be overturned! And, as Charles Derber demonstrates in his provocative new book, it can be. After all, Derber points out, there have been other corporate regimes in American history, although this latest version is by far the most extreme. Still, the corporate regimes of the Gilded Age and Roaring Twenties were overturned. To create regime change again, it will require bold, creative strategies, uniting progressives and conservatives in a new politics, which Derber outlines in detail. Regime Change Begins at Home exposes the many lies the corporate regime has used to maintain itself throughout its history, from the Cold War to the Iraq war, with a particular emphasis on how the Bush administration has cynically sought to, as Condelezza Rice once put it, "capitalize on the opportunities" presented by 9/11. Derber reveals how the Bush administration has used the so-called "war on terror" to frighten and distract the public. But regime change is possible. In Part III, Derber lays out the vision of a new regime, describing the social movements now fighting to achieve it, and the major new political realignment-one spanning the traditional conservative-liberal divide-that can make it happen. Derber does not minimize the difficulty of the task ahead, but he offers hope and specific, sophisticated, often surprising advice for defeating the regime and returning America to its citizens.

A wonderful book for thinking about how to release ourselves from crippling processes. It's time for men-and for all of us-to stand up and say, Give us back our full humanity, give us back our dignity.'
-Paul Gilbert, PhD, author of The Compassionate Mind
In a recent FiveThirtyEight poll, 60 percent of men surveyed said society puts pressure on men to behave in a way that is unhealthy or bad. Men account for 80 percent of suicides in the United States, and three in ten American men have suffered from depression. Ed Adams and Ed Frauenheim say a big part of the problem is a model of masculinity that's become outmoded and even dangerous, to both men and women.
The conventional notion of what it means to be a man-what Adams and Frauenheim call Confined Masculinity-traps men in an emotional straitjacket; steers them toward selfishness, misogyny, and violence; and severely limits their possibilities. As an antidote, they propose a new paradigm: Liberating Masculinity. It builds on traditional masculine roles like the protector and provider, expanding men's options to include caring, collaboration, emotional expressivity, an inclusive spirit, and environmental stewardship.
Through hopeful stories of men who have freed themselves from the strictures of Confined Masculinity, interviews with both leaders and everyday men, and practical exercises, this book shows the power of a masculinity defined by what the authors call the five Cs: curiosity, courage, compassion, connection, and commitment. Men will discover a way of being that fosters healthy, harmonious relationships at home, at work, and in the world.

In a recent FiveThirtyEight poll, 60 percent of men surveyed said society puts pressure on men to behave in a way that is unhealthy or bad. Men account for 80 percent of suicide deaths in the United States and twice as many opioid overdose deaths as women. It's clear we urgently need new a model for a masculinity that works for both men and women.
As an antidote to “toxic masculinity, which the authors reframe as Confined Masculinity, Ed Adams and Ed Frauenheim propose a new male paradigm: Expanded Masculinity. It replaces negative traits like hypercompetitiveness, anger, violence, misogyny, and extreme self-interest with compassion for others, a strong collaborative spirit, emotional expressivity, respect for cultural diversity and gender equality, and protection of the earth. Through hopeful stories, interviews with both thought leaders and everyday men, and practical exercises, this book shows the liberating power of a masculinity defined by the five Cs of Expanded Masculinity: Curiosity, Courage, Compassion, Connection, and Commitment. This way of being a man fosters healthy, harmonious relationships at every level.

In this book, preeminent organizational scholar Edward Lawler identifies a comprehensive and integrated set of talent management practices that fit today's rapidly evolving workplace.
The world of work has changed dramatically, says Lawler. Organizations now operate in a global environment. New technologies continue to disrupt how, when, and where work is done and should be managed. The workforce is becoming more diverse. Sustainability has joined profitability as a key business goal. All of this has dramatically accelerated the pace of change, making recruiting the best talent—not simply filling positions—an overriding concern.
But too many organizations still use a job-based, bureaucratic talent management approach that doesn't take into account how the world has changed. Indeed, a recent study showed that from 1995 to 2016, there was no significant change in the way HR spends its time.
Lawler says that talent management has to be reinvented. It needs to be closely linked to the organization's overall strategy. Recruitment and talent management should be driven by the skills and competencies the organization needs for long-term growth. This means talent management requires agile systems that can respond quickly to changing conditions and that take a more individualized approach to evaluating and rewarding performance. And everything talent management does has to be based on evidence, not tradition.
Lawler looks at attracting, selecting, developing, rewarding, managing, and organizing talent through this new lens. In today's world, organizations have to constantly reinvent themselves—and talent management must do the same.

This new, data-driven book teaches managers and HR executives how to identify a comprehensive and integrated set of talent practices that fit the evolving workplace and that will dramatically improve the effectiveness of all organizations.
Many talent management principles and practices now being used in organizations are obsolete as a result of the fluid nature of work. Globalization, technological advances, automation, the diversification of the workforce, the push for sustainable practices, and the increasing pace of transformation have wrought dramatic changes in the world of work. And yet a recent study showed that from 1995 to 2013 there was no significant growth in the way HR spends its time.
Based on extensive research by Lawler and his colleagues, this book identifies the new strategies, policies, and practices needed for talent management today.
What used to be good or best practices with respect to how people are recruited, selected, trained, assigned, developed, rewarded, and evaluated no longer fit. Today's hierarchical, bureaucratic talent management needs to become agile, strategic, and performance based. This is the first book to identify a comprehensive integrated set of talent practices that fit the changing workplace and that will dramatically improve the effectiveness of organizations.
