ASCENT is about the invisible gap that forms between what you’re capable of and the progress you’re actually making, and why that gap has far less to do with effort than with the rooms you operate in. As businesses grow and leaders accumulate experience, something subtle happens. Decisions take longer. Conversations feel productive, but don’t close. Standards stabilize instead of rising. This book is not about motivation, productivity, or tactics. It’s about how environments shape judgment, identity, and decision-making over time.

It shows you what creates these moments, what sustains them, and what it actually takes to lead through them.

He had to transform himself from a tenured professor - with a love of argument for argument’s sake and the freedom to experiment - into the head of a hierarchical organization. The professor is free to speak his mind against “the man.” The college president is “the man.” Maeda has had to teach himself, through trial and error, about leadership.

For decades, alarms have sounded about declining engagement. Yet companies continue to struggle with toxic cultures, and the low productivity and unhappiness that go with them. Why is "culture" so difficult to improve? What makes so many good employees check out? Neuroscientist Paul Zak shows that innate brain functions hold the answers. It all boils down to trust. When someone shows you trust, a feel-good jolt of oxytocin surges through your brain and triggers you to reciprocate.
