Some events that transform a nation are frozen in time. Others pass with little public awareness, and we only appreciate their momentous nature long after they occur. Regardless, these events are few and—almost always—far between. But in 1969, four such events took place within the span of only 100 days. In this book, cultural historian Harlan Lebo looks back at the first moon landing, the Manson family murders, Woodstock, and the birth of the Internet to tell the story of how each event shaped the nation and how we perceive ourselves. Loaded with captivating anecdotes and insights based on extensive interviews with eyewitnesses and participants, to provide historical insight and contemporary context, 100 Days will fascinate readers who seek a deeper appreciation of how four seemingly unrelated events shaped America’s emergence as the nation we have become. - Häftad, Engelska, 2022

Disruption comes without warning. By the time most people recognise it, it’s already too late. Disrupters at the Gate highlights the huge, world-shifting change arriving from unexpected places that turns business models and human behaviour upside down. Jeffrey I. Cole and Harlan J. Lebo offer a definitive exploration of how disruption happens, why it so often comes from unexpected outsiders, and why even the most powerful organisations consistently fail to see it coming or refuse to understand and acknowledge it. As digital transformation, artificial intelligence, and global crises accelerate the pace of change, Disrupters at the Gate provides business leaders, policymakers, and curious minds with a clear-eyed framework for understanding disruption – not as hype or theory, but as an enduring force that reshapes the world Disrupters at the Gate takes the reader on a journey from the unlikely successes of “two guys in a garage” to the spectacular failures of once-dominant companies. The book uses real-life examples to introduce a powerful method to anticipate and prepare for disruption. Drawing upon decades of experience, Disrupters at the Gate illuminates, among many topics: How the demise of coal-burning stoves led to creating one of the world’s most popular toys Why Xerox and Kodak should be bigger than Apple, Google, or Amazon How the recording industry could no longer force customers to pay for music they did not want Whose legendary product launches inspired Steve Jobs? How overweight visitors almost ruined Disneyland’s most popular attraction Why Uber had no business being in the transportation business How HBO and cable succeeded by discovering outer space Why longer lifespans may not be all good news How Sweden, in one moment, converted driving from the left side of the road to the right How a blunder that made perfect sense almost ruined the world’s best-known product At no other point in history has disruption produced such a broad impact. Disruption shifts organisations, countries, and people’s lives – often with broad implications that can ripple through society. The impact of disruption can make companies and billionaires – or break them.
