In October 2005, Jason Foster, then a staff member of the Alberta Federation of Labour, was walking a picket line outside Lakeside Packers in Brooks, Alberta with the members of local 401. It was a first contract strike. And although the employees of the meat-packing plant—many of whom were immigrants and refugees—had chosen an unlikely partner in the United Food and Commercial Workers local, the newly formed alliance allowed the workers to stand their ground for a three-week strike that ended in the defeat of the notoriously anti-union company, Tyson Foods. It was but one example of a wide range of industries and occupations that local 401 organized over the last twenty years. In this study of UFCW 401, Foster investigates a union that has had remarkable success organizing a group of workers that North American unions often struggle to reach: immigrants, women, and youth. By examining not only the actions and behaviour of the local’s leadership and its members but also the narrative that accompanied the renewal of the union, Foster shows that both were essential components to legitimizing the leadership’s exercise of power and its unconventional organizing forces.

As an expansion Major League Soccer team, the Orlando City Soccer Club marked the return of professional soccer to Florida for the first time since 2001, selling out the sixty-thousand-seat Citrus Bowl for its home opener and going on to have the second‑highest home attendance for the 2015 and 2016 seasons. It was the successful culmination of a nine-year process orchestrated by the team's owner, Phil Rawlins, who sold his successful sales consultancy company for a shot at sports ownership and a chance to tap into America's growing interest in pro soccer. Rawlins was relentless in building a franchise from the ground up, overcoming crippling setbacks, devious politics, and near financial ruin. Underpinning his efforts was a deep commitment to re-creating the tribal passion and community spirit of his hometown team in the United Kingdom, Stoke City, for which he served as board member for fourteen years. The payoff was the Orlando City Soccer Club, an attractive new team that galvanized the region. The subsequent acquisition of international superstar Ricardo Kak� catapulted the club to celebrity status and ensured that its debut season defied expectations. Defying Expectations gives insight into the challenges faced on the road to success, challenges through which Rawlins has remained focused on the six core values that he and his wife formulated at their kitchen table years ago, continuing to foster a community institution that gives back as much as it receives.

This book is about how to lead with both the heart and the head, but the heart first. This book is about being brave enough to be willing to open your heart as well as your head to lead. Love is the missing ingredient in our corporate culture. We hear a lot of talk about trust, integrity and authenticity in leadership, but without love, none of these are possible. Without loving your teams, your peers, and your mission, you can never truly be a leader that people want to follow. But we never teach people the skill of leading, speaking and working from the heart. We never teach people to be truly open and vulnerable. This is a book about leadership and team building but it is not your usual management book. I never set out to write a traditional book on leadership as I feel that the leadership philosophies and styles that have helped us to where we are now are not going to get us where we need to get to next. We see and treat people as units of labour, rather than the critical part of any business that they are. We have undervalued people and the role that their life experience can bring to work, and we have allowed exclusion and elitism to run our boardrooms and executive suites. What will this book do for you? This book will challenge you to think about the type of leader you want to be, both at work and at home; Force you to define your values and boundaries so that you know what you stand for and ask you to be brave enough to stick to these; Teach you how to love and lead with integrity, along with the trust of those around you in a way that is sustainable; Give you the steps you need to take to become and stay truly vulnerable. Love leadership is not for the faint-hearted, there is nothing soft about love, nothing fluffy. Love is not weak, love is not a doormat, love does not compromise, but love is compassionate, listening and understanding. Love does not sit there with a smile on her face in submission. Love sprints headfirst into action. To me, love is the ability to see the potential in another, no matter where they are in their journey. What more could we ask from our leaders but to see our potential no matter what? I am not special or different; I am just me. I have been hurt, I have failed and messed up numerous times, and I will continue to do so. I have hurt others, both intentionally and accidentally. I am not perfect, and I don't aim to be, but I do, passionately, want to make a difference to people and their lives. I do, however, have over 20 years' experience working, coaching and managing people. I know what works and what doesn't, for the good of each individual, not just the business. I have shown again and again, that by serving and uniting your teams with love, integrity and trust, that you can deliver sustainable business growth. This book aims to help you in doing the same.
