About Madison Avenue Revisited
Madison Avenue Revisited is a critical, deep dive examination of how the advertising industry's media function collapsed from a profitable, integrated department during the Golden Age of Advertising into today's fragmented, less effective and often opaque business. The book traces this decline from an era when media was a low status but high profit "back office" activity fuelled by 15% commissions, through to a current state marred by technological complexity, financial mismanagement and a lack of C-suite leadership. Farmer examines the economic realities facing agencies today, their staffing and metrics, and the influence of the "shareholder value" mindset that has prioritised short term cost cutting over long term effectiveness. The book also looks ahead, exploring the transformative potential and challenges posed by artificial intelligence in the media world.

LID Radio with the LID team
We're proud to introduce our new series on LID Radio Podcast celebrating LID’s 30th anniversary. In light of this huge milestone, we’ll welcome some of the LID team members in the upcoming weeks to talk about some of the successes of LID in the past few years and what the future might hold for us.
The very first guest in the series is LID’s Chief Operating Officer & Publisher, Martin Liu, who started out the LID UK office ten years ago. Martin brings several decades of experience at the top level of publishing in the business and professional fields. A multiple award-winner, Martin counts editorships, directorships and publishing roles among his career highlights.
In today's episode of LID Radio, we're joined by retail experts Dimas Gimeno and Luis Lara to talk about their new book Retail Reset, why retail, as we know it, is coming to an end and whether physical stores are still the key to the future.
Dimas Gimeno is the former CEO of El Corte Ingles. Today, he is Executive President of WOW, a new retail and lifestyle concept recently opened in Madrid. He is based in Madrid, Spain.
Luis Lara is the Managing Partner of Retalent, a growth strategy consultancy. He is based in Madrid, Spain.
In their book, Retail Reset, the authors explain how the structural changes taking place today will affect each retail channel. They explore strategies to promote the rebirth of the retail sector and the companies that operate within it. This reset is based on enhancing the emotional connections with consumers (through memorable content and experiences) so that stores will surprise again. Moreover, it rests on integrating the physical and digital so that shopping, whether online or offline, becomes a connected and singular experience.
In the very first episode of LID Radio Podcast for 2023, we're joined by marketing & branding expert Dan White. We talk about his latest book, The Smart Branding Book, and how we can build a strong and resilient brand.

In today's episode of LID Radio, we're joined by Neil Francis, the author of The Creative Thinking Book: How to ignite and Boost Your Creativity. We talk about his book and the different inhibitors blocking our creative thinking.
About Neil Francis
Neil Francis is an entrepreneur with extensive experience in digital and software technology. He is the author of four other self-development books, including Positive Thinking (LID).
About The Creative Thinking Book
Creative thinking is about finding a way of looking at problems or situations from a fresh perspective, and then to conceive of something new or original. A creative person has clever and original ideas, and that all starts with firing up your imagination. It’s through your imagination that you produce and simulate novel objects and new ideas, images or concepts.
The good news is that everyone is capable of thinking creatively – as human beings, it is within our nature to do so. Through a mixture of anecdotes, stories and practical methods, this book is designed to help you understand what creativity is and how to unleash and apply your inner creativity.

In today's episode of LID Radio, we're in discussion with Jacob Dahl, the author of In Search of Time: Understanding the Nature and Experience of Time for a Better Life. We talk about his book and the ten lenses through which he looks at time in it.

Jacob has always been passionate about history, philosophy and physics.
About In Search of Time
We talk about time all the time; in fact, it is the most used noun in the English language. Yet, we have a very limited understanding of what time really is and find it difficult to explain it. The clock itself has become essential in our lives and having a shared idea of what time is has been critical for the evolution of our societies.
However, time also comes with frustrations: we never seem to have enough of it during our busy days, we are bothered about our big life clock ticking too fast, and we are saddened by the lack of long-term considerations by decision makers. So, can we somehow maintain the good aspects of time and deal with the bad, by gaining a better perception of what time really is? This book looks at time through ten lenses in order to grasp a better understanding of it, as well as laying out the benefits of getting rid of our self-imposed bad time habits.

In this episode of LID Radio Podcast, we're joined by Dr Paul Weinberg to speak about the life of an American Emergency Room doctor and some of the fascinating stories from Paul's career. We also discuss Paul's first professional memoir ER Doctor.
About ER DoctorIn turns shocking, sad and funny, this book contains remarkable tales, inside stories and the experiences of a doctor’s career in ER. Emergency medicine in America is a critical asset to its healthcare system. The ER doctor is located at the interface of the public and the first point of healthcare. If a doctor is needed outside of office hours, nights, or holidays, if the patient is uninsured or has inadequate insurance, or is of such a social state that they might be unpleasant to be around, no one is turned away at the ER. In short, the life of the ER doc is one where no situation is off limits.
Paul Weinberg, M.D., a self-confessed adrenaline junkie, spent a total of 45 years in Emergency Medicine primarily in a community hospital in a major metropolitan area in California, USA. He is now retired.
In today's episode of LID Radio podcast, we're speaking with Myles Downey and Ian Harrison about their book The Enabling Manager, the align-and-enable management model and many more useful insights for managers and leaders.
About The Enabling ManagerA practical, modern book for managers and leaders, at any level and in any department or company, who need to know how to get the best from their teams in a 21st Century business world. The world of work and the needs of people in the workplace have changed to the extent that the old models no longer work. Today’s manager cannot rely on “command-and-control” and a culture of compliance to get their job done.
What is the answer? Much of what Millennials are asking for – development and growth, transparency and connection, work that has meaning and purpose, empowerment. These things suggest something very simple: a change in management style, that is fitting to today’s business environment, that seeks to align rather than control, to enable rather than constrain, to coach rather than command.

In today's episode of LID Radio podcast, we're speaking with Panos Papadopoulos, the founder of Swedish swimwear brand Panos Emporio, about how he came from a small Greek village and went on to build a multi-million-dollar fashion empire. We also talk about Panos' autobiography, PANOS: My Life, my Odyssey, which shares every aspect of his extraordinary journey - from childhood to what the present look like for Panos.
About PANOS: My Life, My Odyssey
This is a rags-to-riches story about a man who came from a Greek village, born to a father with three years’ schooling and an illiterate mother, whose down-to-earth Greek values formed the foundation of an entrepreneur who went on to build a multi-million-dollar fashion empire.
Today, Panos Emporio is one of the most established luxury swimwear brands in the world, being the choice of celebrities and royal families amongst others. Panos Papadopoulos created this empire in his new country of Sweden in record time, introducing the winning combination of innovative design, skillful entrepreneurship and ground-breaking marketing, which elevated the brand to its world-leading position. Panos’ life as an entrepreneur is a tale of passion and total commitment. In telling his story, he also provides success lessons and valuable advice to other entrepreneurs, that can be applied to sectors beyond fashion.
Panos Papadopoulos spent the past 35 years starting and developing Panos Emporio, one of the world’s leading brands in luxury swimwear, which today generates annual revenues of $20 million. Born in Greece, he is now based in Sweden.
In today's episode of LID Radio Podcast, we speak with Dr Maria Katsarou-Makin about all things group dynamics, her lates book Group Dynamics-Mix, a very special experiment she conducted and more interesting insights.
About Group Dyna-MixSince the 2008 financial crisis, existing methods of executive leadership have experienced in-depth scrutiny beyond their control. In reference to Patrick Lencioni, to understand teams is to comprehend an “inattention to results, an avoidance of accountability, and a lack of commitment”. Executive leaders have been operating through silent, lucrative and confidential team dynamics that are difficult to access and subsequently difficult to challenge and understand.
Dr Katsarou-Makin explores the team-to-trust and trust-to-team relations between executives and their associates – pertaining to the familial relations between these members and their unconventional codes of conduct. Under this umbrella of governance, directors, leaders and corporate gatekeepers operate in teams that are selected and trusted through unorthodox relations which must now come to light. Dr Katsarou-Makin seeks to explore how these teams operate through a collective consensus of trust and the values this trust demands.
Dr Maria Katsarou-Makin is the founder of the Leadership Psychology Institute and has more than 20 years of experience in organizational development and executive coaching. She combines business and consulting experience and has done extensive work and research in team dynamics.
In today's episode of LID Radio, we're speaking with Anthony 'Tas' Tasgal about his new book The Storytelling Workbook, whether anyone can be a storyteller, why storytelling is essential for your brand and much more.
Anthony Tasgal spent 15 years as an ad agency planner before setting up POV, a strategic brand consultancy. He is a Training Director for the CIM and a Visiting Lecturer at Buckingham, Nottingham Trent and Beijing Normal Universities. He lives in the UK.
The Storytelling Workbook is a practical, nine-week programme (based on Anthony Tasgal’s “rule of three”) to help you learn to tell your own narrative and present your story, whether it be for your CV, your dating apps or your own personal writing. It is an entertaining, instructive and interactive guide to becoming a better storyteller across all facets of your personal and professional life.
Including a mix of case studies, advice and exercises, this workbook is structured into three sections: before, during and after. In the before section, you will learn to free yourself from reductionism, obsession with numbers, facts, data and ‘messaging’; in the during section, you will concentrate on finding simplicity, meaning and depth; while finally, in after, you will come to understand how to write less and think more and ultimately how to keep writing again and again.

Philippe De Backer and Juan Gonzalez are coming back for a second episode on LID Radio. This time they discuss whether traditional banks can strike back and compete with the NeoBanks.
Philippe De Backer is Managing Partner and Global Practice Leader of Financial Services at Arthur D. Little. Philippe draws from his extensive experience as a global leader in financial services to share a proactive view on the disruption in banking and emerging business models, which are reshaping the sector and many industries as traditional business boundaries are blurring.
Juan Gonzalez is a Partner at Arthur D. Little. He has worked extensively on the impact of technological change on the information flows that shape organizations and their interactions with their environment.
Philippe and Juan are co-authors of the book Disruption, together with Arthur D. Little's CEO Ignacio Garcia Alves.
Disruption provides a critical understanding of the impact of the current economic crisis and the current industrial revolution on financial services, the new trends in the sector, and the opportunities for banks to leverage their unique assets and pre-empt challengers from gaining meaningful market share. The book also provides top-level advice about transforming financial services organizations by finding the right balance between short-term requirements and the imperative of long-term change. This balancing act is what the authors call the “ambidextrous approach”, which requires focus on two strategic initiatives: performance and innovation.

Originally a director of theatre, Nicholas Janni taught acting at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and directed his own theatre company. He dedicated 30 years to exploring the theory and practice of peak performance flow states.
Over the last 20 years, he gained an international reputation for his leadership programmes, designed for chief executives and top teams from diverse sectors, public and private. He teaches regularly at Oxford University and the IMD Business School.
Nicholas' transformative work bridges the worlds of creative, personal, spiritual and professional development in a uniquely powerful, relevant and accessible way.
Leaders of today must possess potent powers for logic, reason, discernment and strategic forecasting. Yet, they must also be empathic and therefore embodied; grounded and therefore intuitive; present and therefore awake. They must be skilled in mindfulness and deep listening, able to inspire authentic engagement and collaboration, and possess a clear and wholehearted sense of service, mission and purpose – restoring coherence where there is fragmentation and unity where there is division. Nicholas Janni presents this new and necessary leadership style as the Leader as Healer.
The book outlines both a theoretical and practical map towards a new form of leadership, one that embodies the ‘skill, heart, and wisdom’ that the current moment demands. The pathway Janni describes is one of integration and restoration, which is designed to reawaken the innate human capacities – physical and emotional, individual and transpersonal – that were previously discarded and forgotten during our perilous journey towards profit-maximization and “infinite” economic growth. It offers a way to grow ourselves as leaders and to heal our organizations.

Alain Liebaert started his career as a management consultant, specializing in reorganizing companies on a ‘no cure, no pay’ basis. Following the death of his father, Alain entered the family business – Liebaert Textiles – and eventually became CEO, where he turned the business around in a declining market. After 30 challenging years, he left the family business in the capable hands of his children (the fifth generation), only to return to his old love of management consulting.
Alain just published his first book, Mastering Decline, sharing his tips with managers running a company in a declining market.
Compounded by the pandemic-induced economic recession, many companies find themselves operating in declining markets – markets that have no real long-term prospects for growth, and where the demand for certain goods and services are stable at best but are not increasing. Yet, in such an environment, it is not impossible for companies to survive and make profits.
In this book, a former management consultant and current CEO of a company that survived decline in its market provides practical and hard-won advice for managers and owners of any company in a declining market or situation. In doing so, the author highlights key activities that companies in declining markets should focus on in order to secure their future and remain profitable.

John is a globally recognized guru of modern business writing. He founded two influential organisations for writers – 26 and Dark Angels – that continue to champion more creative writing for business.

It’s no good having a good idea if you cannot communicate it to someone else. John Simmons, in this stimulating and readable book, demonstrates how we can write and use words more creatively and persuasively in business today. From differentiating your company from another, to injecting life and vibrancy into your products and services, to writing everyday emails, this cult business book by the modern-day guru of business writing (now released as a new 21stanniversary edition) shows ways in which we can use words to gain competitive advantage in business life through “tone of voice”. John Simmons’ method of writing powerfully for business is based on his “WE, ME, THEM and IT” model, which over the past 25 years has been adopted by tens of thousands of marketers and other professionals around of the world. Simmons argues that effective business writing is about learning to love writing and words, and bringing more of our real selves to working life.

For too long, we have bought into the myth of separation; the story that we each win or lose through the relentless pursuit of self-improvement, achieving personal and organizational goals and increasing consumerism. This has led us to being more lonely, exhausted, and disconnected than ever, with a devastating impact on our personal lives, families, communities, organizations, and the planet.
Not Beinginvites us to be curious about a different way of life, where we are interconnected, interdependent with each other and our environment; no longer fragmented but whole. It invites us to transition from a selfie culture to a selfless one that is radically inclusive of the other. We need to relinquish narrow ideas about who we are, to discover and embrace a wider identity. We are part of something much bigger than any of us.

A new human species will soon come to co-exist with us. This new species, ‘Homo nouveau’, will be created using artificial intelligence and genetic engineering; both important tools which are in their infancy. Not only are the science and technology relatively new, but their implications in the mind of the general public are also only just beginning to enter our collective consciousness. This book expands on the research done for the author’s pervious book, What Comes After Homo Sapiens?
Written by a medical professional and independent consultant to healthcare IT companies, The Fourth Great Transformation explores the questions of what this new species will look like, how we as humans will get along with them, and the potential threats and opportunities that will come along with genetically modified humans.

He is a published author and speaker whose projects have delivered measurable business results across a balanced scorecard and been recognized with industry awards.
He is also co-author of The Values Economy.

JENS SCHADENDORF is an economist, author and keynote-speaker on topics related to diversity and inclusion (D&I), primarily LGBT+ D&I, corporate social responsibility (CSR), and leadership. He also advises companies, scientists, and managers on book projects globally and consults on communications, change, and CSR matters. Alongside this, he is also an independent LGBT+ diversity researcher at the Chair of Business Ethics at the Technical University of Munich. His book is entitled GaYme Changer.
The LGBT+ community has experienced a stunning development in a short period of time: yesterday marginalized, stigmatized, and criminalized, now champions of creativity, diversity and innovation in a highly competitive world. In addition, corporate social responsibility and ethical demands for inclusivity have become economic directives that every organization would like to attain.
The struggle of recognition is not over yet, but in workplaces and markets, gay, lesbian, transgender, bisexual and queer individuals have become symbols of diversity and economic power – true GaYme Changers developing the global economy faster and for the better. Illustrated by fascinating stories around individuals, companies, nonprofits and a fast - growing cohort of organizations, Jens Schadendorf has traced the LGBT+ community and an increasing number of their allies from across the globe to discover the start of a revolution. Supported by up-to-date research, he shows that investment in LGBT+ inclusion delivers a powerful return. Always - even in times of hostility, resistance and crisis - it is economically and ethically beneficial for companies and societies and every human being, to let LGBT+ members develop into dynamic forces, rooted in new forms of cooperation and learning for ga(y)me changing results.
