Through volunteer coaching projects like the ones I conduct with prestigious non governmental organizations such as the Turkish Education Foundation TEV, I support young women who have limited access to education and quality living conditions. My goal is to help them discover themselves, remember their dreams, and shape their careers. In partnership with the Turkish…
Safi Bahcall borrows an idea from physics the way water can suddenly turn to ice to explain why the same group of people can be wildly receptive to bold new ideas one moment and reflexively shut them down the next. He argues the difference usually isn’t culture or genius, it’s structure: how a company separates…
Set in the summer of 1981, the story follows a young woman driving across the country in a graduation-gift Mustang, ostensibly to track down the mother who left her years earlier — a plan that unravels once she and her childhood friend pick up a stranger along the way. It’s a road novel at heart,…
Coming out of the Harvard Negotiation Project, this is the foundational text behind “principled negotiation” — separate the people from the problem, focus on underlying interests rather than fixed positions, generate options that create mutual gain, and judge outcomes against objective standards rather than sheer willpower. It speaks directly to the trap most people fall…
Built around motivational speaker Les Brown’s own hard-knocks story, the book pushes readers to notice the limiting beliefs and convenient excuses that quietly keep them small, and to get specific about their underlying “why” as the thing that actually sustains motivation once the initial burst of inspiration fades. It’s less a how-to manual and more…
Aimed mostly at women navigating life’s different stages and transitions that come with it, this book combines psychological insight with practical coaching exercises to help readers rebuild a sense of identity and direction once the roles that used to define them — caregiver, career title, certain relationships — start to shift or fall away. It…
Picking up where The Element left off, this is the practical, exercise-driven companion: a series of reflective questions meant to help readers locate the specific point where their natural ability and genuine enthusiasm overlap. Robinson’s underlying claim is that most people go through school and work without ever really being asked what they’re good at…
İlker Köksal turns the questions he was repeatedly asked by other founders, plus his own startup journey, into a working guide that walks through the realistic, unglamorous shape of building a company — assembling the right team, shaping culture before it shapes itself, raising money, and eventually exiting. The underlying point is that the founder’s…
The novel moves between two time periods to follow a young woman whose intense, almost obsessive attachment to a visiting painter quietly shapes the rest of her life, and a present-day gallery owner who starts pulling at the threads of that old story through a handful of unfinished sketches. It’s less about a single twist…
