Most Popular Books by Scott Galloway

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER USA TODAY BESTSELLER Amazon, Apple, Facebook, and Google are the four most influential companies on the planet. Just about everyone thinks they know how they got there. Just about everyone is wrong. For all that’s been written about the Four over the last two decades, no one has captured their power and staggering success as insightfully as Scott Galloway. Instead of buying the myths these compau00adnies broadcast, Galloway asks fundamental questions. How did the Four infiltrate our lives so completely that they’re almost impossible to avoid (or boycott)? Why does the stock market forgive them for sins that would destroy other firms? And as they race to become the world’s first trillion-dollar company, can anyone chalu00adlenge them? In the same irreverent style that has made him one of the world’s most celebrated business professors, Galloway deconstructs the strategies of the Four that lurk beneath their shiny veneers. He shows how they manipulate the fundamental emotional needs that have driven us since our ancestors lived in caves, at a speed and scope others can’t match. And he reveals how you can apply the lessons of their ascent to your own business or career. Whether you want to compete with them, do business with them, or simply live in the world they dominate, you need to understand the Four.

Bestselling author, NYU professor, and cohost of the Pivot podcast Scott Galloway offers a path forward for men and parents of boys. Boys and men are in crisis. Rarely has a cohort fallen further and faster than young men living in Western democracies. Boys are less likely to graduate from high school or college than girls. One in seven men reports having no friends, and men account for three of every four deaths of despair in America. Even worse, the lack of attention to these problems has created a vacuum filled by voices espousing misogyny, the demonization of others, and a toxic vision of masculinity. But this is not just a male issue: Women and children can’t flourish if men aren’t doing well. And as we know from spates of violence, there is nothing more dangerous than a lonely, broke young man. Scott Galloway has been sounding the alarm on this issue for years. In Notes on Being a Man, Galloway explores what it means to be a man in modern America. He promotes the importance of healthy masculinity and mental strength. He shares his own story from boyhood to manhood, exploring his parents’ difficult divorce, his issues with anger and depression, his attempts to earn money, and his life raising two boys. He shares the sometimes funny, often painful lessons he learned along the way, some of which include: • Get out of the house. Action absorbs anxiety. • Take risks and be willing to feel like an imposter. Don’t let rejection stop you. • Be kind. That’s the secret to success in relationships. • Find what you’re good at; follow your talent. • Acknowledge your blessings—and create opportunities for others. Be of surplus value. • Being a good dad means being good to the mother of your children. • Life isn’t about what happens to you—it’s about how you respond to it. With unflinching honesty, Scott Galloway maps out an enriching, inspiring operator’s manual for being a man today.

From bestselling author, CNN+ host of No Mercy, No Malice, and NYU business school professor Scott Galloway comes an urgent examination of the future of our nation – and how we got here. We are only just beginning to reckon with our post-pandemic future. As political extremism intensifies, the great resignation affects businesses everywhere, and supply chain issues crush bottom lines, we’re faced with daunting questions – is our democracy under threat? How will Big Tech change our lives? What does job security look like for me? America is on the brink of massive change – change that will disrupt the workings of our economy and drastically impact the financial backbone of our nation: the middle class. In Adrift, Galloway looks to the past – from 1945 to present day – to explain just how America arrived at this precipice. Telling the story of our nation through 100 charts, Galloway demonstrates how crises such as Jim Crow, World War II, and the Stock Market Crash of 2008, as well as the escalating power of technology, an entrenched white patriarchy, and the socio-economic effects of the pandemic, created today’s perfect storm. Adrift attempts to make sense of it all, and offers Galloway’s unique take on where we’re headed and who we’ll become, touching on topics as wide-ranging as online dating to minimum wage to the American dream. Just as in 1945 and 1980, America is once again a nation at a crossroads. This time, what will it take for our nation to keep up with the fast and violent changes to our new world?

AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A must-have guide to optimizing your life for wealth and success, from bestselling author, NYU professor, and cohost of the Pivot podcast Scott Galloway. Today’s workers have more opportunities and mobility than any generation before. They also face unprecedented challenges, including inflation, labor and housing shortages, and climate volatility. Even the notion of retirement is undergoing a profound rethink, as our lifespans extend and our relationship with work evolves. In this environment, the tried-and-true financial advice our parents followed is no longer enough. It’s time for a new playbook. In The Algebra of Wealth, Scott Galloway lays bare the rules of financial success in today’s economy. In his characteristic unvarnished, no-BS style, he explains what you need to know in order to better your chances for economic security no matter what. You’ll learn: How to find and follow your talent, not your passion, when making career decisions How to ride and optimize big economic waves (hard truth: market dynamics always trump individual achievement) What small steps you can take that pay big returns later, including diversification and tax planning How stoicism can help you minimize spending and develop better financial habits Brimming with wise, game-changing advice from one of the world’s most popular business school professors, The Algebra of Wealth offers a powerful framework for making the most of what opportunities come your way.

New York Times bestseller! "Few are better positioned to illuminate the vagaries of this transformation than Galloway, a tech entrepreneur, author and professor at New York University’s Stern School. In brisk prose and catchy illustrations, he vividly demonstrates how the largest technology companies turned the crisis of the pandemic into the market-share-grabbing opportunity of a lifetime." --The New York Times "As good an analysis as you could wish to read." --The Financial Times From bestselling author and NYU Business School professor Scott Galloway comes a keenly insightful, urgent analysis of who stands to win and who''s at risk to lose in a post-pandemic world The COVID-19 outbreak has turned bedrooms into offices, pitted young against old, and widened the gaps between rich and poor, red and blue, the mask wearers and the mask haters. Some businesses--like home exercise company Peloton, video conference software maker Zoom, and Amazon--woke up to find themselves crushed under an avalanche of consumer demand. Others--like the restaurant, travel, hospitality, and live entertainment industries--scrambled to escape obliteration. But as New York Times bestselling author Scott Galloway argues, the pandemic has not been a change agent so much as an accelerant of trends already well underway. In Post Corona, he outlines the contours of the crisis and the opportunities that lie ahead. Some businesses, like the powerful tech monopolies, will thrive as a result of the disruption. Other industries, like higher education, will struggle to maintain a value proposition that no longer makes sense when we can''t stand shoulder to shoulder. And the pandemic has accelerated deeper trends in government and society, exposing a widening gap between our vision of America as a land of opportunity, and the troubling realities of our declining wellbeing. Combining his signature humor and brash style with sharp business insights and the occasional dose of righteous anger, Galloway offers both warning and hope in equal measure. As he writes, "Our commonwealth didn''t just happen, it was shaped. We chose this path--no trend is permanent and can''t be made worse or corrected."

An unconventional book of wisdom and life advice from renowned business school professor and New York Times bestselling author of The Four Scott Galloway. Scott Galloway teaches brand strategy at NYU''s Stern School of Business, but his most popular lectures deal with life strategy, not business. In the classroom, on his blog, and in YouTube videos garnering millions of views, he regularly offers hard-hitting answers to the big questions: What''s the formula for a life well lived? How can you have a meaningful career, not just a lucrative one? Is work/life balance possible? What are the elements of a successful relationship? The Algebra of Happiness: Notes on the Pursuit of Success, Love, and Meaning draws on Professor Galloway''s mix of anecdotes and no-BS insight to share hard-won wisdom about life''s challenges, along with poignant personal stories. Whether it''s advice on if you should drop out of school to be an entrepreneur (it might have worked for Steve Jobs, but you''re probably not Steve Jobs), ideas on how to position yourself in a crowded job market (do something "boring" and move to a city; passion is for people who are already rich), discovering what the most important decision in your life is (it''s not your job, your car, OR your zip code), or arguing that our relationships to others are ultimately all that matter, Galloway entertains, inspires, and provokes. Brash, funny, and surprisingly moving, The Algebra of Happiness represents a refreshing perspective on our need for both professional success and personal fulfillment, and makes the perfect gift for any new graduate, or for anyone who feels adrift.

Certo dia um estudante chegou uma hora atrasado a uma das concorridas aulas de Scott Galloway na Universidade de Nova Iorque. O professor mandou-o imediatamente embora, a sua tolerância era de 15 minutos. O aluno não gostou e queixou-se num email indignado. Numa época em que o politicamente correto aconselharia ao silêncio, o autor deste livro respondeu-lhe com um épico raspanete – que se tornou viral. O professor, de origens humildes mas hoje milionário graças às empresas que fundou, continua a dar aulas naquela universidade. E a sua resposta não espanta quem o conhece. Afinal, o seu mantra para a riqueza implica apostar na nobreza de caráter – coisa incompatível com a interrupção grosseira de uma aula. A Álgebra da Riqueza não apresenta folhas de Excel para preencher, nem conselhos para poupar na conta da luz. Defende, isso sim, uma filosofia de vida, dirigida a quem já tem um rendimento fixo, mas pretende ficar independente das amarras do emprego (e da ansiedade económica). É preciso pois viver as virtudes estoicas da temperança, paciência e resiliência, aproveitar o tempo de forma produtiva (sendo as redes sociais o maior inimigo) e diversificar os investimentos. E tudo isto começa com a escolha da carreira (esqueça a paixão e aposte antes naquilo em que for bom), com a escolha da pessoa com quem vai viver (ou daqueles que o rodeiam) e, por fim, dos diferentes “cestos” onde coloca o seu dinheiro. Apelidado pela revista Fast Company como o “Jordan Peterson liberal”, e hoje um dos mais populares professores na área da gestão, Scott Galloway oferece aqui uma poderosa ferramenta para observarmos o mundo e agarrarmos as oportunidades que surgirem pelo caminho.

Amazon, Apple, Facebook, en Google zijn vier van de invloedrijkste bedrijven ter wereld. Bijna iedereen denkt te weten hoe ze dat geworden zijn. Bijna iedereen heeft het fout. Over De vier is de laatste twintig jaar ongelooflijk veel geschreven. Niemand beschrijft hun macht en fenomenale succes zo inzichtelijk als Scott Galloway. Hij gaat op zoek naar antwoorden op een aantal fundamentele vragen: Hoe is het De vier gelukt ons leven zo te infiltreren dat ze bijna onmogelijk te vermijden (of te boycotten) zijn? Waarom vergeeft de beurs ze zondes die andere bedrijven zouden verwoesten? Is er, in hun race om als eerste het bedrijf te worden dat een biljoen dollar waard is, nog iemand die de strijd met ze kan aangaan? Op zijn eigen unieke manier, die hem ook een van de meest gevierde business-professoren heeft gemaakt, deconstrueert hij de strategieën van De vier die schuilgaan onder het glanzende oppervlak. Hij laat zien hoe zij – met een niet te evenaren snelheid en bereik – onze fundamentele emotionele behoeftes manipuleren die ons al sinds de oertijd drijven. En hij onthult hoe je deze inzichten kunnen toepassen voor de groei van je eigen bedrijf of carrière. Of je nu de concurrentie met ze wilt aangaan, zaken met ze wilt doen of gewoon in de wereld wilt leven die zij domineren, je moet De vier begrijpen.

Traditional Chinese edition of The Algebra of Happiness: Notes on the Pursuit of Success, Love, and Meaning

Amazon, Apple, Facebook e Google sono le quattro aziende più influenti del mondo. Quasi tutti pensano di sapere come lo sono diventate. Quasi tutti si sbagliano. Sulle Quattro è stato scritto moltissimo in questi vent’anni, ma nessuno ha indagato più a fondo di Scott Galloway le ragioni del loro potere e del loro successo. Anziché prendere per buoni i miti che le Quattro si sforzano di tramandare sul proprio conto, l’autore scava più a fondo e si pone alcune domande fondamentali. Come hanno fatto queste aziende a insinuarsi nella nostra vita in modo così capillare, rendendo praticamente impossibile evitarle (o boicottarle)? Perché il mercato azionario le ha perdonate per errori che avrebbero decretato il fallimento di qualsiasi altra impresa? E mentre aspettiamo di scoprire chi tra loro diventerà la prima azienda da mille miliardi di dollari della storia, si profila all’orizzonte qualcuno che sia in grado di competere con loro? Con lo stesso stile irriverente che ha fatto di lui uno dei docenti di business più stimati al mondo, Galloway ricostruisce le strategie impiegate dalle Quattro – in modo più veloce e più mirato di chiunque altro – per sfruttare gli istinti e le emozioni primordiali che orientano l’azione umana. E vi svela come applicare i principi del loro successo al vostro business o alla vostra carriera. Sia che vogliate competere o fare affari con loro, oppure semplicemente vivere nel mondo che dominano, dovete prima capire come funzionano le Quattro.

QUANTO MAIS DISRUPTIVA FOR A CRISE, MAIORES SERÃO AS OPORTUNIDADES – E OS RISCOS. Do autor bestseller e professor da NYU Business School, Scott Galloway, chega-nos uma análise urgente e perspicaz de quem pode ganhar e quem corre o risco de perder, num mundo pós-pandemia. Numa altura em que o mundo está ainda a lidar com uma pandemia, os efeitos na economia já se sentem, mas ainda se desconhece o verdadeiro impacto no tecido empresarial, na taxa de desemprego e na perda de poder de compra das famílias. Enquanto os quartos se transformaram em escritórios pelo mundo fora, algumas empresas como a Peloton (treino físico em casa), o Zoom (software de videoconferência) e a Amazon, dispararam para vendas e lucros impensáveis no espaço de apenas um ano. Outros como restaurantes, agências de viagem ou hotelaria e entretenimento, lutam para escapar à falência. Este livro capitaliza a incerteza dos tempos e oferece conselhos concretos numa época em que o futuro se mantém indefinido. Como argumenta Scott Galloway, a pandemia não foi um agente de mudança, mas um acelerador de tendências já em andamento. Neste livro, ele traça os contornos da crise e as oportunidades que se avizinham. A dispersão do trabalho remoto, o comércio online, o futuro do ensino, a importância das redes sociais, o reforço de alguns monopólios, o papel dos governos, o fosso entre ricos e pobres são alguns dos temas que o autor explora. É um livro indispensável a qualquer pessoa que queira saber com que mundo pode contar, por forma a tomar as melhores decisões para a sua vida. Combinando o seu humor característico e estilo impetuoso com análises de negócios precisas, Scott Galloway mostra-nos os riscos e enche-nos de esperança sobre as oportunidades que as crises nos podem trazer. Uma boa forma de tentarmos animar-nos com alguma coisa positiva que possa nascer depois dos momentos difíceis. Um livro indispensável a qualquer pessoa que queira saber com que mundo pode contar, por forma a tomar as melhores decisões para a sua vida.
