Book Description
In Leading Matters, current Chairman of Alphabet (Google's parent company), former President of Stanford University, and "Godfather of Silicon Valley," John L. Hennessy shares the core elements of leadership that helped him become a successful tech entrepreneur, esteemed academic, and venerated administrator. Hennessy's approach to leadership is laser-focused on the journey rather than the destination. Each chapter in Leading Matters looks at valuable elements that have shaped Hennessy's career in practice and philosophy. He discusses the pivotal role that humility, authenticity and trust, service, empathy, courage, collaboration, innovation, intellectual curiosity, storytelling, and legacy have all played in his prolific, interdisciplinary career. Hennessy takes these elements and applies them to instructive stories, such as his encounters with other Silicon Valley leaders including Jim Clark, founder of Netscape; Condoleezza Rice, former U.S. Secretary of State and Stanford provost; John Arrillaga, one of the most successful Silicon Valley commercial real estate developers; and Phil Knight, founder of Nike and philanthropist with whom Hennessy cofounded Knight-Hennessy Scholars at Stanford University. Across government, education, commerce, and non-profits, the need for effective leadership could not be more pressing. This book is essential reading for those tasked with leading any complex enterprise in the academic, not-for-profit, or for-profit sector.

Book Description
Daniel Richards is fresh out of business school and working for his family's business, when his father dies suddenly. He finds himself at the helm of a multimillion-dollar company with little understanding of its structure, minimal experience, and even less confidence. At a loss, he turns to the company's COO, a longtime family friend, for help. It is soon discovered all is not as it seems with the business, and Dan realizes he's at risk of losing everything his father and grandfather worked their entire lives to create. With his legacy on the line, the bank breathing down his neck, and investors' and employees' confidence waning, Dan must discover the inner resources and faith to fix both his company and himself before it's too late. The story teaches crucial lessons for personal and professional success-it's a must-read, whether you're just starting out or have many years of experience. It addresses real-life business matters and covers more critical business issues than most graduate-level business courses.
