Book Description
"Hosts of all kinds, this is a must-read!" --Chris Anderson, owner and curator of TED From the host of the New York Times podcast Together Apart, an exciting new approach to how we gather that will transform the ways we spend our time together—at home, at work, in our communities, and beyond. In The Art of Gathering, Priya Parker argues that the gatherings in our lives are lackluster and unproductive--which they don't have to be. We rely too much on routine and the conventions of gatherings when we should focus on distinctiveness and the people involved. At a time when coming together is more important than ever, Parker sets forth a human-centered approach to gathering that will help everyone create meaningful, memorable experiences, large and small, for work and for play. Drawing on her expertise as a facilitator of high-powered gatherings around the world, Parker takes us inside events of all kinds to show what works, what doesn't, and why. She investigates a wide array of gatherings--conferences, meetings, a courtroom, a flash-mob party, an Arab-Israeli summer camp--and explains how simple, specific changes can invigorate any group experience. The result is a book that's both journey and guide, full of exciting ideas with real-world applications. The Art of Gathering will forever alter the way you look at your next meeting, industry conference, dinner party, and backyard barbecue--and how you host and attend them.

Book Description
“Immigration in America is simple,” said no one, ever. Here’s why: the immigration laws in America have not been updated significantly in over four decades. The chance of getting picked in the H-1B lottery was less than 10% in 2023. And, there are over a million immigrant workers waiting in a green card backlog today. Yet, despite these constraints, immigrants have done extraordinary things. With Unshackled, we aim to lower the barrier so you can too. Unshackled will give you a friendly map of the legal immigration system as it exists today in the United States. Whether you want to start companies, obtain a talent visa like the O-1 and EB-1, or decide that this country is not a fit, the book will be your trusted companion. Through vivid stories and personal accounts, the book also unearths the raw emotions of frustration, loneliness, and self-doubt that underscore every immigrant's journey to remind you that you're not alone. With beautiful illustrations and infographics, Unshackled is as much a treat to your eyes, as it is to your mind. Go on and take a look inside! When you purchase Unshackled, you get access to the following: - Guidance to navigate 11 visa pathways, including the O-1, EB-1A, EB-1B, L-1, H-1B, F-1 OPT, and more. We’ve shared insights from some of the best lawyers out there, written in simple, engaging language. - Stories of 11 high-skilled immigrants, each of whom had walked an unconventional path and remind you that you’re not alone. Expect to tear up at some point! - Access to free resources on top of the book, including a Notion tracker to build your O-1 or EB-1 profiles, short videos answering top questions around EB-1A, a list of VC funds that support immigrant founders, and more. - Free invites to all future webinars and events conducted within the Unshackled online community!
