A New York Times bestselling series A USA TODAY bestselling series A California Young Reader Medal–winning series In this riveting series opener, a telepathic girl must figure out why she is the key to her brand-new world before the wrong person finds the answer first. Twelve-year-old Sophie has never quite fit into her life. She’s skipped multiple grades and doesn’t really connect with the older kids at school, but she’s not comfortable with her family, either. The reason? Sophie’s a Telepath, someone who can read minds. No one knows her secret—at least, that’s what she thinks… But the day Sophie meets Fitz, a mysterious (and adorable) boy, she learns she’s not alone. He’s a Telepath too, and it turns out the reason she has never felt at home is that, well…she isn’t. Fitz opens Sophie’s eyes to a shocking truth, and she is forced to leave behind her family for a new life in a place that is vastly different from what she has ever known. But Sophie still has secrets, and they’re buried deep in her memory for good reason: The answers are dangerous and in high-demand. What is her true identity, and why was she hidden among humans? The truth could mean life or death—and time is running out.

The COVID-19 global pandemic has revealed the fragility of humanity. It is because of uncertainty and ambiguity that leaders must adapt and rise to the challenge. Co-creation leadership is a superpower that leaders need in order to help their organizations thrive. In this book, Dr. Terry Jackson, a renowned expert in executive coaching and organizational change, discusses co-creation leadership and how all leaders can use it to achieve organizational success. He also introduces the co-creation leadership's RECIPE model: (R) Revolutionary Results. Co-creation leadership can produce revolutionary results because co-creation itself is a revolution. Leaders need to ensure that their co-creation isn't merely lip service; otherwise, real transformation can't take place. (E) Execution. Leaders should execute the plans and initiatives to help the organization produce better solutions for their customers. Just imagine what humans could do if they never heard the words "failure" and "limitation." (C) Culture. The culture set by co-creation leadership is all about the "why." By having a North Star in the organization, co-creation leadership can help create a healthy culture with fully engaged employees, improved performance, and increased productivity. (I) Intention. Co-creation leadership is intentional leadership. Leaders should intentionally develop those in the organization to their fullest potential and encourage collaboration. (P) Purpose. Purpose is a key part of co-creation leadership as it motivates everyone in the organization to grow and succeed. Co-creation leadership helps people live their purpose, resulting in increased motivation to succeed. (E) Evolution. A thriving organization is a constantly evolving organization. Co-creation leadership pushes everyone in the organization to grow, explore new possibilities, and embrace transformation in order to succeed. All six components in co-creation leadership-revolutionary results, execution, culture, intention, purpose, and evolution-are equally important in building a co-creative organization. Take one element away, and the RECIPE of co-creation leadership is incomplete. Leaders with underperforming teams can recognize and apply the components in co-creation to succeed. Successful co-creation paves the way for healthier and happier humans and contributes to flourishing and thriving organizations.

Harry Potter may not be the biggest brand in the world, or the most venerable, but his story is one of the most dramatic. This book tells the story of the Harry Potter brand and how it has taken the entertainment world by storm. Joanne K Rowling and her fabulous money-spinning creation is a contemporary fairytale, a 21st century version of the classic cornucopian chronicle. An impoverished single parent pens an accidental bestseller, which grows exponentially. The book begets more books, which beget movies and merchandise and huge media coverage. Today, Harry Potter is as much a brand as Tom Cruise, Starbucks or even Heinz. This book provides a fascinating insight into how Harry Potter became one of the world's most recognised brands in an extraordinarily short period of time.
