REVIEWS
One Life hits the epicentre of what we are fighting for every single day in Joe & The Juice. Namely, to build a brand that delivers an unseen level of meaningfulness in the intersection between our people and our workplace. This is a must read for anyone who is ambitious about life.
Kaspar Basse, Founder and Executive Chairman, Joe & The Juice
Leadership is about creating ‘movement’ on two dimensions –continuously setting the right coordinates for the direction and making sure each and every employee feels a genuine meaning in what they do. Morten’s book should be read by every leader or aspiring professional.
Stine Bosse, Director of the Supervisory Board, Allianz Group and appointed as one of the most influential businesswomen in the world by the Financial Times
Morten delivers an inconvenient but extremely enlightening critique of humanity while providing optimistic answers to how we can navigate our lives, our businesses and our society towards abetter and more sustainable future. All organizations should indeed define and work for a higher purpose than just profit, so this book should be an embedded part of all leadership curricula.
Professor Flemming Besenbacher, Chairman, Carlsberg Group and the Carlsberg Foundation

Under Ma's leadership, Tencent has moved into web portals, social networks, multi-player games and e-commerce, making the company today an Internet powerhouse and China's number one brand. Ma himself was hailed by Time magazine in 2014 as one of the world's most influential people.

Business Alchemy
In this enlightening and engaging book, Andrew Wallas views the company from a metaphysical perspective to provide a new approach to transforming the organization. Business Alchemy focuses on the inner dynamics and energy flow within the organization itself, seeing where there is visible and hidden contradiction working against the aims of the company. It is by taking a deeper look inside of your company (instead of focusing on the outer machinations of your business), and by bringing these (often unconscious) blocks to light, that energy is released and the company is then free to move forward, fully aligned with its stated objectives and goals. This is a unique perspective on how companies can evolve and grow naturally and successfully.
