2. HarperCollins LEBEN. Meine Geschichte in der Geschichte
When we reach a certain age, it is important to revisit the book of memories from time to time. This is an exercise we should all undertake before it's too late! In "Life. My Story," Pope Francis tells the story of his life for the first time, based on the events that have shaped humanity—from the outbreak of World War II in 1939, when he was almost three years old, to the present day.
"Life" is a journey through the decades, tracing the key milestones of our time through the Pope's memories. These include the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Videla coup in Argentina, the moon landing in 1969, and even the 1986 World Cup, during which Maradona scored a goal that went down in history as "the Hand of God."
The book is filled with the memories of a priest who shares his personal perspective on the Holocaust, the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the great economic crisis of 2008, the collapse of the Twin Towers, the pandemic, the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI, and the conclave that elected him as Pope Francis. The "papa callejero" opens the treasure chest of his memories to recount these moments that changed the world with the openness that characterizes him.
At the same time, Francis shares important messages on major current issues such as social inequalities, the climate crisis, war, nuclear weapons, and racism. The voice of the Pope alternates with that of a narrator, Fabio Marchese Ragona, a journalist and Vatican expert, who describes the historical context in which the Pope has lived. "Let us learn from history so that we do not repeat the mistakes of the past." Pope Francis.

He provides insights into the cultural, political, and spiritual dimensions of this conflict and highlights the importance of compassion and dialogue in the pursuit of peace and justice.

7. HarperCollins Multipliers, Revised and Updated
A revised and updated edition of the acclaimed national bestseller that explores why some leaders drain capability and intelligence from their teams while others amplify them to produce better results
We’,ve all had experience with two dramatically different types of leaders. The first type drain intelligence, energy, and capability from the people around them and always need to be the smartest ones in the room. These are the idea killers, the energy sappers, the diminishers of talent and commitment. On the other side of the spectrum are leaders who use their intelligence to amplify the smarts and capabilities of the people around them. When these leaders walk into a room, light bulbs go off over people’s heads, ideas flow and problems get solved. These are the leaders who inspire employees to stretch themselves to deliver results that surpass expectations.
These are the multipliers. And the world needs more of them, especially now, when leaders are expected to innovate and do more with less. This revered classic has been updated with new examples of Multipliers as well as two new chapters on accidental diminishers and how to deal with diminishers. Just imagine what you could accomplish if you could harness all the energy and intelligence surrounding you. Multipliers, Revised and Updated will show you how.
