That hardback consists of 404 interlinked dictionary entries, inviting listeners to choose their own path through its radical vision. Recognizing that Lean Logic's sheer size and unusual structure can be daunting, Fleming's long-time collaborator Shaun Chamberlin has selected and edited one of these potential narratives to create Surviving the Future.

We all long to belong, especially those in positions of leadership. But deeply rooted shame can keep leaders from connecting authentically and vulnerably. Reverend Will van der Hart and Dr. Rob Waller - an experienced church leader and respected psychiatrist - integrate the story of Scripture with the science behind mental health, offering real steps for transformation. When leaders know that they belong to God - when they develop a deep sense of security in him - they can overcome constricting shame and lead with confidence.

You run a business. And running a business is hard. The burden of responsibility, the weight of stress, and the loneliness of running your business are a far cry from your friends who work salaried jobs. The path of least resistance is to let the stress and isolation of starting, running, and growing a business infiltrate most aspects of your life. Over and over, we've watched our fellow entrepreneurs succumb to the mental toll and chaos of running a business. We've also experienced it firsthand as we've launched and grown our own businesses.

It's the hidden epidemic of small moments of anxiety that infiltrate both our work and personal lives.

The long-term effect is devastating: microstress invisibly weighs us down, damages our health, and contributes to a decline in our overall well-being. The good news is that once you learn about microstress, you can fight back.

For many, the colonial story of Australia starts with Captain Cook's discovery of the east coast in 1770, but it was some 164 years before his historic voyage that European mariners began their romance with the immensity of the Australian continent.
