“I’m a huge fan of High Output Management and Setting the Table […] Luca’s Best Practices for Operational Excellence took my management to the next level. It’s been almost a month since I started implementing the principles, but I can already say that I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my company’s morale […] That feels amazing.”

– Molson Hart, Viahart CEO

“One of the most important books I’ve read, period. It’s short, articulate and expansive on a singular subject matter — ergodicity which is really the key ingredient to success in life, marriage, business, family, happiness, health, etc..”

– Black Janover, Janover Inc. CEO

“A SUPERB book […] by one of the profound thinkers in our field [behavioral economics].”
– Michael G. Bartlett

A quick and practical guide to improve talent retention and engagement.

“Thanks to Luca Dellanna for his book about autism and ASD. It’s probably one of the best works I have read in that matter (I have read a few) and it’s surprising how realistically he depicts the condition.”
– Manel Vilar

“Loved The World Through a Magnifying Glass – this analogy NAILS IT.”
– Emerson Spartz, NYT Bestseller Author

Engagement is an adaptation.

As a manager, make decisions not for their direct effect but for the adaptations they engender in your team.

Luca’s second book on management. Twelve lessons with practical exercises with a focus on adaptation.

The first Roam Book on management.

An innovative book format that puts the reader in a proactive role and integrates with their notes.

Half a treaty on epidemiology, half a reflection on what went wrong during the 2020 response and on what we can do next.

“This guy! Luca is amazing. So insightful with common sense applications of Complexity and the ability to communicate clearly!!”

– Bob Klapetzky.

I’m the inventor of the Roam Book (rBook), a book format that enables the reader to discover a topic through non-linear exploration and proactive learning.

I’ve published two rBooks and helped a few authors do the same.
