Shift happens. It's time for Plan D. Long gone are the good old days where a sudden market shift was tempered -- even held back -- by restrictive laws, huge capital requirements, complex data, industry secrets, distribution networks and expensive infrastructure. Goliath has lost his edge. Today, "what's next" is conceived by firebrand leaders who topple the once proud giants of established industries. You know, the crazy ones . . . the Disruptors. This book explores two questions about them: 1. What makes them special? (So we can do what they do and upend our competition as well.) 2. How do they think? (So we know how to manage them while getting the absolute best out of them.) This book is written about -- and for -- Disruptors. It crystallizes the Disruptor's unique superhero powers so you can use them too (for good, not evil). The future belongs to the Disruptors. You need them, and they need you. This book will help you dream, drive and deliver like the crazy ones.

Popular host of The View set to debut new daytime talk show on FOX TV, SHERRI* In Plan D, Sherri Shepherd, Emmy Award winner and cohost of The View, presents her easy-to-follow program for losing weight, managing sugar sensitivity, and getting moving—all to help you feel and look your best. For years, Sherri Shepherd was told that she was pre-diabetic. And for years, she ignored her doctor’s advice to lose weight and get healthy before she developed full blown diabetes. When she finally got the big-D diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes, the same disease that took her mother’s life, Sherri vowed that she’d change her ways so that her son wouldn’t be left alone, without a mother, as she had been. With the help of her doctor, she created this program, lost more than 40 pounds, and she looks great and has more energy than she did in her twenties. Sherri’s diabetes is under control, and she was happy to show her stuff, wowing the world on Dancing with the Stars. With tools to help you live a long and healthy life, Plan D is a smart and supportive plan designed to help you lose weight safely, make exercise a real, and fun, part of your life, and control your sugar sensitivity. And through it all, Sherri Shepherd is there, like a trusted friend, offering advice, encouragement, and of course a healthy dose of humor.
