A simple guidebook for navigating the new world of sports marketing and brand management

The modern consumer, today’s fan, is no longer passive. Over three quarters of millennials say they prefer experiences over traditional advertising. Old approaches won’t work. Yard barkers handing out free towels. A stadium plastered with billboards. Maybe a new Jumbotron. Today’s fan is looking for something more engaging, more interactive, and more immersive.

Industry pioneer, James Giglio, the founder of MVP Interactive, takes us through his fascinating decade-long journey, starting out with a vision for immersive experiences, well before anyone had ever heard of virtual reality. Over that time, he has had the opportunity to work with many leading sports teams, professional leagues, advertising agencies, and consumer brands, to completely redefine the fan experience and now he shares those lessons with us.

James also takes us through his own personal story of building a startup, from growing up as a daydreaming kid in Ocean County, New Jersey, to working with an advertising agency in New York and recognizing that three themes were emerging: the iPhone app explosion, the increased use of digital signage or so-called “street furniture,” and the emergence of “pop up events” by leading brands. He began to wonder how these three trends could be brought together. What if the immersive technology on our iPhone could be brought to the streetscape? What if those digital displays could become interactive? And what if brands could attract consumers to them rather them just hawking them promotions and free stuff? The result was MVP Interactive. But like any startup, there were bumps along the way and James’ story is a heartfelt, honest tale of making many... let’s just say, learning a lot of lessons along the way.

The timing could not be better. Post Covid, events are back and back big. During the pandemic, we all went fully remote and realized it was just way too much screentime. But we are also not going back to the way it was. Beyond the Jumbotron lies a new, hybrid world where human interaction and technology combine. James takes us through not only the why — the dramatic changes in consumer attitudes and behavior that are driving the adoption of immersive technology, but more importantly the how — how to bring these projects to life and lead to real, measurable result after case study and shows the possibilities of new technology are not only endless, but also just the beginning. lts for sports properties and brands. James and his team at MVP Interactive have completed over 200 immersive technology projects and the book is filled with case study after case study and shows the possibilities of new technology are not only endless, but also just the beginning.

Follow his journey from a childhood spent in working-class rural Virginia caring for his mentally disabled sister and factory worker mother to an unexpected career as a co-founder and corporate executive of a supply chain logistics company to the visionary investor of people.

When Blake embarks on a hunt to uncover the cause behind a series of sudden medical emergencies that leave doctors puzzled, his life is forever changed. Once a work-obsessed and ambitious career man, Blake finds his priorities drastically transformed when faced with a life-altering diagnosis. But through adversity and unwavering determination, he uncovers the true meaning of love, family, resilience, and faith.

Prior to his fight against a mysterious disease, Blake had been consumed by the demands of his career, inadvertently sidelining his wife and daughter in the process. But as the symptoms of an elusive multiple sclerosis (MS) diagnosis begin to take control of his daily life, he must reevaluate the purpose of his time on earth. Realizing the importance of his family’s unflinching support and his faith in God, he asks for the strength to change his ways and strengthen the bonds with his loved ones.

As the tale unfolds, Blake’s transformation goes beyond the professional sphere. He becomes an advocate for those suffering from neurological diseases, sharing his story to inspire others facing similar challenges. Through his bravery and vulnerability, he touches the hearts of many, spreading hope and encouragement to those who may feel overwhelmed by life’s trials.

In the end, this gripping story reveals that life’s most profound lessons often emerge from the darkest of times. It serves as a reminder to embrace the love of family, cherish every moment, and find strength in one’s past to conquer the present. Blake’s journey through his MS diagnosis to find healing in mind, body, and spirit is an endearing testament to God’s power.

Suzanne Hopgood was eleven when she got her first real job bussing tables at her parents’ hotel in New Hampshire. By seventeen, she was running the place. That’s when a chef threw a knife that barely missed her head because she’d forgotten to include turkey on the menu. It wouldn’t be the last time she had to duck and weave in her career.

In Get Your Own Coffee, Hopgood takes readers through her journey from that small-town beginning to chairing multiple corporate boards, including a NYSE company during what became known as Director Magazine’s article, “Board from Hell.” Along the way, she shows how she navigated a business world where the rules for women weren’t just different—they were kept secret until you broke them.

When her first boss told her, “You will always be underestimated. Use it to your advantage,” she couldn’t have known how valuable that advice would become. She’s had a boss grab her, throw her over his shoulder, and carry her into a business meeting. She’s been fired for refusing a boss’s late-night advances at her condo. She’s been fired for “insubordination.” She’s watched male colleagues take credit for her ideas while ignoring her voice at the table.

But she also became Chair/CEO after the proxy contest that The Wall Street Journal called “The Shot Heard Round the World,” fired executives who thought she didn’t have the authority, and slammed her files on the table before walking out of negotiations—only to have the deal she wanted waiting when she returned.

Between the corporate battles, Hopgood shares the joy she found with her husband Frank during their forty years together, biking through Southeast Asia, navigating the streets of Moscow and São Paulo, and finding laughter even in his final days.

She learned that getting ahead doesn’t mean playing by other people’s rules. Sometimes, you have to create your own—and sometimes, you just have to be bold enough to take a stand.

What do you inherit when your family flees everything they’ve ever known? For Dr. Emily Watson, the daughter of Cambodian refugees, the answer was clear: tenacity, faith, and the unspoken mandate to succeed.

In Roots of Resilience, Watson recounts how her parents escaped the Khmer Rouge and arrived in Indiana with nothing but hope and work ethic. From growing up in the back room of a donut shop to leading a modern orthodontic practice, she tells a deeply personal, sharply observed story of what it means to build a life from scratch—one rooted in family legacy, shaped by sacrifice, and defined by daily acts of quiet courage.

Each chapter delivers a leadership insight forged not in classrooms but in lived experience. Watson shares how cultural identity shaped her professional path, how she navigated practice ownership while pregnant and overwhelmed, and how lessons learned in her parents’ business—like cleaning the floors and showing up no matter what—gave her an edge no textbook ever could. From hard conversations with staff to the chaos of early practice years, she is refreshingly candid about what success actually requires.

Perfect for women in dentistry, first-generation professionals, and readers of memoirs that merge heart and hustle, Roots of Resilience offers: * Practical leadership lessons from a faith-driven, immigrant upbringing * A behind-the-scenes view of owning a dental practice as a woman of color * An honest look at balancing ambition, motherhood, and cultural expectations * A timely reminder that success starts with showing up every single day

Watson’s voice is grounded and warm, never sentimental. Her story is one of small, defiant miracles—refugees learning English in the dead of winter, children of trauma building businesses, a daughter finding purpose through pain.

This book is for anyone who’s ever felt pressure to make it count—for their parents, for their community, for themselves.

For fans of Beautiful Country, Somewhere in the Unknown World, and Minor Feelings. A moving, unflinching tribute to family, faith, and the fierce grace of starting over.

With increased demand for hybrid and fully remote work styles, most firms understand that some form of distance work is here to stay—and have put some remote protocols in place. But are they the right ones? Do they reflect best practices when it comes to the hiring, training, and onboarding of new remote hires? Are policies and workflows in place that enable remote workers to be as productive as possible? Does management know how to keep remote teams engaged while keeping an eye out for burnout and other wellness issues?

Often, the answer is “we’re not quite there yet.” Many companies either see the shift to remote work as a threat to their culture and management style, or they just don’t know how to make the transition.

It’s time to take advantage of the many opportunities remote work presents. Stop saying “we’re not there yet,” and start saying “we’ve arrived!” This book will show you how.

American education is often attacked by critics citing test scores and pundits claiming systemic failure. Yet American Educational Excellence: The Foundation of Our Values, Democracy, and Market Capitalism by Kenan Sahin reveals a different story: one of resilience, innovation, and unmatched global impact.

Through personal experience—from Robert College in Istanbul to MIT—and decades as an entrepreneur and educator, Sahin illustrates why the US education system remains an unparalleled engine of innovation. Rather than focusing narrowly on standardized testing, he highlights how the American education system produces individuals capable of thriving in democracy, capitalism, and global markets. Drawing vivid examples from ventures like Kenan Systems and CAMX Power, Sahin showcases how US education fosters adaptability, creativity, and leadership skills essential in an AI-driven future.

Sahin argues that the real success of American education lies in having incorporated core American values and its symbiosis with democracy and market capitalism—nurturing initiative, competition, and community involvement. He shows how graduates of the US education system have led the world’s greatest companies—Amazon, Apple, Google—demonstrating the effectiveness of a values-driven education. The book explores how K-12 outcomes, higher education success, and cultural values converge to support the economy, emphasizing that metrics like innovation in education and resilience against disruption matter more than international test rankings.

By blending historical analysis, business insight, and personal narrative, Sahin redefines the discussion on education and democracy. He warns that failing to recognize the system’s deep-rooted strengths could endanger the very forces that power America's future.

For educators, policymakers, business leaders, and citizens concerned with American competitiveness, American Educational Excellence: The Foundation of Our Values, Democracy, and Market Capitalism provides an essential, optimistic, and fact-driven understanding. It’s a rallying cry for those who recognize that preserving the best of our education system is critical to national success in a world increasingly dominated by AI, quantum computing, and shifting global dynamics.

Visualize Your Greatness is more than a memoir—it’s a masterclass in purpose, grit, and godly ambition from Hall of Fame linebacker and leadership mentor Mike Singletary. Raised in Houston’s Sunnyside neighborhood under the weight of poverty and generational pain, Singletary refused to accept despair as his destiny.

Smarter healthcare IT is the solution to three interrelated problems: widespread physician burnout, uneven care quality, and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

In The HIPUS® Revolution, emergency physician and healthcare IT innovator Dr. Mark Sorensen reveals how these challenges are symptoms of a deeper issue: outdated, inefficient information systems that overwhelm doctors, compromise care, and inflate costs.

Research shows that nearly half of all physicians in the U.S.—and many abroad—have experienced burnout serious enough to impact the quality of care. While many patients still receive excellent treatment, our healthcare system struggles to deliver that same standard of high-quality care to everyone. At the same time, rising healthcare costs are placing growing pressure on families and the broader economy.

Dr. Sorensen introduces a breakthrough solution: the HIPUS® system, which uses patented, color-assisted, Bayesian-like analysis to help physicians:

• Fully process diagnostic information
• Integrate use of all patient and care data during decision-making
• Communicate and document care more easily and effectively

By restoring cognitive clarity, diagnostic confidence, and autonomy to physicians, the HIPUS® system addresses burnout at its root—while improving outcomes and lowering costs.

Designed for emergency departments but adaptable across care settings, this transformative IT also supports diagnosis-related, doctor-nurse collaboration and enhances the integration of AI and machine learning tools.

This book provides a way for physician and non-physician readers to propel implementation of the IT described. The better readers understand the need for such IT, the better they can advocate for its use.

Whether you're a clinician, hospital leader, or simply someone who cares about the future of healthcare, The HIPUS® Revolution offers a compelling and understandable roadmap to smarter, safer, and more sustainable care—starting now.

In 1980, Graham Broyd did something outrageous—he sold his scholarship ticket to Washington, DC, bought a one-way flight to Los Angeles, and set off to hitchhike across America. Armed with a red backpack, a surfboard, and a knack for finding himself in both incredible and ridiculous situations, he bummed rides, crashed on beaches, and stumbled into experiences that would shape him forever. From rolling the dice in Vegas to interviewing senators in Congress, from the open roads of the West to the neon chaos of New York City, every mile brought a new story.

Forty years later, Graham returns to retrace his steps, revisiting the landscapes, people, and memories that defined his youth. What has changed? What remains? And how does time shift our understanding of the roads we once traveled?

Backpack, Jacket, Surfboard is a raw and humorous adventure memoir, a time capsule of 1980s America, and an unfiltered reflection on risk, nostalgia, and the unexpected turns that shape a life. It’s for anyone who has ever dreamed of throwing away the map, saying yes to the unknown, or looking back at a wild decision and thinking, “I’d do it all over again.”

For fans of Bill Bryson, Paul Theroux, and anyone who knows that the best stories come from the roads we didn’t plan to take.

Jim Decker’s gentle storytelling empowers the reader to embrace a greater challenge, as healthcare is at a point of no return in America.

Written for corporate leaders in every field, Jim calmly offers the basics of compassion and servant leadership as a better way. His non-healthcare friends say that the pressures he has experienced in his forty-seven year career are significantly more intense than those in the typical corporate world. Considering the notion “that which does not kill me, only makes me stronger,” he tells the story of his journey.

Immersed in healthcare for five decades, Jim is hearing more frequent complaints from friends and neighbors about how difficult it is to navigate the healthcare maze. Everything from understanding the health insurance quagmire and watching healthcare costs continue to rise, to the impersonal feeling of just being a “number” and being shuffled through the system in assembly line fashion.

Something is wrong.

And the problem, Jim suggests, is that these well-meaning leaders may not realize the damage of an authoritarian style of leadership. Talk to nurses. Talk to long-term employees. They are not happy. They are unfulfilled. Company loyalty is gone.

Exercising good “judgment in administration” is a trait that all good leaders should possess. But Jim asks if that is always the case. He fears that some of the problems the US healthcare system is experiencing today result from poor judgment by key decision-makers.

Me too, he notes. He has been in pressure-filled situations where he felt no escape from brutal management decisions. “Twenty-twenty hindsight would suggest that I should have handled certain situations differently. Hopefully, I learned from those experiences.”

Jim seeks to get the attention of Board leadership as well. The local business leaders serving on boards across America need to ask themselves the same questions. They make decisions without regard to their employee morale and failing loyalty, the vast majority of which have lost respect for their company leadership.

It is time for those in leadership positions to change course before we reach the point of no return. A different focus might be the best remedy for what ails us. Could a healthy dose of compassion, servant leadership, and better judgment be just what the doctor has ordered?

Jim Decker adds that the price we are paying is impacting the healthcare quality in America.

If you have ever averted your eyes when walking past something for sale that you really wanted, knowing you could never afford it, you need this book. If you have ever had to decide which bill to pay because you couldn’t pay them all, you need this book. If you have ever looked at your bank account and wondered if you’ll ever have enough to achieve your dreams, you need this book.

I write this for the woman who has carried the weight, who has held things together, who has worked twice as hard for half as much and still wonders, Am I doing enough? Am I enough? Let me be clear: Yes. You are enough. You always have been. And when you finally see that—when you believe it deep in your bones—the world can’t help but reflect it back to you.

Most books will tell you to budget better, negotiate harder, climb the ladder faster. This one won’t. Because your success—your wealth—doesn’t come from working more or chasing opportunities. It comes from recognizing your worth and standing in it, unapologetically. For too long, we’ve been taught that empowerment means learning to play the game the way men do. But that’s a lie. Real power comes when you stop proving, stop striving, and start trusting in the value you already bring. When you stop shrinking, the world expands to meet you.

So no more waiting. No more second-guessing. No more handing over your power and hoping it is returned to you. It is time to gather yourself, stand tall, and claim what has always been yours.

Let’s walk together and rewrite the story—not by doing more, but by being more. By believing more. By finally seeing yourself as the unstoppable, extraordinary woman you already are.

Lo que comenzó como un esfuerzo sincero de dos madres decididas que buscaban apoyo para sus hijos con síndrome de Down se ha convertido en un faro de esperanza para las familias.

Stop hiring with your gut. Start hiring with your head.

I believe that you will find this a valuable, nitty-gritty, nuts-and-bolts how-to guide that is also an exciting power-pack book. I am going to deal you some ideas that will be new to you and some ideas to make you think differently. I’m here to rattle your cage a little bit. As you delve into these pages, I suggest you refrain from dwelling on anything you decide you have been doing wrong. Instead, just relax and let yourself grasp and appreciate that there is a way of doing it better that isn’t complicated at all. Do it right and get the right people to fill those empty seats, employees who are current or potential A-players with measurable attributes and an understanding of how to succeed in the first 90 and 365 days. My aim is simple: to deliver what you need to put people in the right seats facing in the right direction, not in a static way but in a “you are free to move around the cabin” way.

When you finish this book, you will know how to win somebody over to your team and bring them on your journey for—as Jim Collins put it so perfectly in his book Good to Great —however long they stay on the bus. Do I trust our way? We trust it enough to be different by design: We are the only company of our type in the world to guarantee 100 percent performance of the people we recommend you hire. And we guarantee that not for a week or a month, but for 365 days. We know it works. Very few people are going to join your company and stay for twenty years, but they will choose to make you part of their journey, just as you choose them to be a part of your organization’s journey.

Accountability Starts With You
Are you a manager who struggles to get accountability right within your organization? Have you been faced with the need to hold someone accountable and either bulldozed your way through the encounter or talked yourself out of it with excuses like "I've already tried that," or "It's too risky"? If you've ever done a poor job of holding others accountable, this book can help you feel more comfortable with how you gain ownership from employees.

Own Up! addresses the big myths, everyday hesitations, and all the other stories we tell ourselves about what it means and how much time and effort it takes to create a culture of responsibility. Author Jennifer Thero Long's central insight is that lack of clarity around ownership is responsible for all the drama that accountability conversations (done poorly) entail. It's the drama, and not actual accountability, that demands our extra attention, time, and energy. To combat misunderstandings and self-defeating assumptions, she guides readers through a series of practical and immediately implementable steps for achieving accountability in any situation.

Own Up! shows how clarifying ownership—of expectations on the one hand and duties on the other—is the key activity by which accountability is established and maintained. Accountability done well takes very little time and energy, and its results include immediate gain in employee performance and execution, reduced work and workarounds, increased trust between individuals, and greater employee reliability.

Each year, millions of professionals enter the job market, but only a fortunate few ever make it to the top. How do they ascend, and what sets these leaders apart?
In Breaking Away From The Pack, business leader Jon Rambeau reveals the art and science behind exceptional success. His proven approach is founded on effective use of career currency, that finite amount of time we are all afforded to invest in our careers.

All Orthodontists Are Not Created Equal.
Choosing an orthodontist is kind of like selecting a parachute—the moment you realize you’ve made the wrong decision, it’s too late to change your mind. The braces themselves are only part of the journey. It’s also important to consider the quality of care, the relationship with the provider and team, the costs of treatment, and your expectations about the journey.
When patients’ braces are removed, their smile—the smile that was created through dedication and perseverance—will be with them when they do well in school, at their graduation ceremony, at their first kiss, at their first job interview, on their wedding day, when they greet their children. It will be with them when they celebrate any event in life.
With decades of experience, Dr. Doug Depew wrote Change Your Smile, Change Your Life: Your Guide to Orthodontic Treatment, a guide on everything you need to know about orthodontics. Don’t waste another second—improve your health by learning if orthodontics is right for you.
