Book Description

Business is a machine, and ultimately the best robot wins. Today's trend is to believe that everything in business rises and falls on leadership, but where is the strategy in that approach? Encompassing both strategy and leadership are the four basic elements that are the bedrock to business management: planning, leading, organizing, and control. Artificial intelligence and the robot revolution have created the need for an evolution of these vintage management principles. Whether you are a task-oriented or a people-oriented leader, Krystal Parker, former executive for a Fortune 200 publicly traded oil and gas company, believes that any leader who wants to construct the best machine must align human workers, processes, and systems with their enterprise's mission, vision, and values. This is where and how the best robot wins!

Book Description

Twelve-year-old Jordan Steel moves with his family from California to the City of Materials in Ohio, where science and technology permeate all aspects of daily life. At his new school, the Roberts Academy, Jordan discovers the secret world of the Robotics Club and the awe-inspiring Robot Wars. Even though underclassmen are rarely allowed to join the Robotics Club and participate in the Robot Wars, Jordan gets in with his new friends, the Silver triplets. They soon forge a team called the Warriors of the Old Republic. Paris is the electronics wiz and Friday is the welding guru. Goldie brings magnetics to life, and Nick is a computer ace. Together, they learn to depend on each other's strengths to build a robot to compete in the Robot Wars. But not everyone wants an underclassman team in the Robot Wars. Jordan and his teammates can't be sure who their real friends are as they try to understand their new school, the secret Robotics Club and their competition. Even darker than some of their competitors' intentions, however, is a secret housed in the halls of the Roberts Academy - a secret that seems drawn to Jordan and his friends.
