Total THB. [graphic novel] / by Pope, Paul,author,illustrator.;
Mars is a planet divided. In the north, the bohemian Plutonium City teems with music and art. In the south, the people of Velo City are stifled by an oppressive bureaucracy with a tightening grip. And it is in Velo City that we find HR Watson, the sheltered daughter of a wealthy industrialist, and THB, her loyal but mysterious bodyguard who can expand from a tiny rubber ball to a nine-foot-tall humanoid with just a splash of water. To HR, THB is a novelty--a strange new toy of dubious value. But when she finds herself in the crosshairs of her father's enemies, HR will quickly discover the true extent of THB's power.

Career forward : strategies from women who've made it / by Puma, Grace,author.; Shi, Christiana Smith,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.In 'Career Forward', former PepsiCo COO Grace Puma and former Nike President of Consumer Direct Christiana Smith Shi offer a groundbreaking, empowering guide for women that shows how to prioritize a career path, build professional value, and enjoy a full life both in and out of the workplace. At a time when many long-held workplace structures and beliefs are changing, "Career Forward" is a beacon. Drawing on decades of experience reaching the top of Fortune 500 companies, the authors show women how to get paid what they're worth, navigate the shifts that occur in any company, and build a leadership identity. The authors challenge negative stereotypes about female ambition and urge women to be purposeful, follow their dreams, and seize the chance to lead "big" lives. Partly, the secret is to focus on career first and job second. More rewarding even than chasing a job title or salary bump is staying on a long-range career path that leads to success. Packed with personal anecdotes and wisdom, and featuring quizzes and checklists for self-evaluation, "Career Forward" provides a wealth of lessons, including the value of thinking of yourself as a "growth stock" and what it means to live a well-rounded 360-degree life. To anyone who wonders whether working hard is really worth it, Puma and Smith Shi emphatically answer "yes," because the rewards will far outweigh the effort.

High road leadership : bringing people together in a world that divides / by Maxwell, John C.,1947-author.;
The world's most influential leadership expert, John C. Maxwell, tackles the problem of our divided world in his latest book High Road Leadership. "Everything rises and falls on leadership," says Maxwell. "Today it is causing people to fall -- into disputes, frustration, anger, and despair. His solution is to expose the problems of taking the low and middle roads when interacting with others and teach people how to instead take the high road. Leaders who practice high road leadership value all people, do the right things for the right reasons, take accountability for their actions, and place people above their own agenda. In his trademark communication style, Maxwell teaches the principles and practices of high-road leadership that can increase anyone's influence and help them make their world a better place.

No straight road takes you there : essays for uneven terrain / by Solnit, Rebecca,author.; Solnit, Rebecca.Essays.Selections.;
"Beginning with an essay about a three-hundred-year-old violin and what it can tell us about forests, abundance, and climate, and ending with on about a prisoner dreaming of seeing the ocean, No Straight Road Takes You There deftly bridges the political and the literary, offering unique insights, nuanced understanding, and inspiration for the challenging work ahead. In her latest essay collection, the award-winning author explores climate change, feminism, democracy, hope, and power and its abuse. Throughout she asks us to heed the stories we tell or have been told, and the ways those stories can be, or should be changed. Solnit offers a reappraisal of the value of indirect consequences, an embrace of unpredictability, slowness, and imperfection in the politics of how to change the world"--
