Reflective Leadership Memoir Featured in LibraryBub Selection for March

LOS ANGELES, March 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Business thinker Armin Trost maintains that effective leaders understand their leadership context, possess suitable and clear leadership ideas, communicate those ideas to those they lead, and act accordingly. For author Jörg Kornblum, that quality of leadership comes from reflection. In his book, Lifting the Curtain: memoirs of a CFO, he looks back at his experience of cross-cultural business gained as a European working in the Far East and Southeast Asia. For those considering a long-term move abroad, he offers "a glimpse of what such a life can hold: the challenges, surprises and rewards that may await them". For bestselling author Kumar R. Parakala, Kornblum's "candid stories about culture shock, adaptation and professional growth are very insightful with actionable strategies". This very practical book combines a personal memoir, a cultural journey and a private compass to intercultural leadership.

LibraryBub is an industry first. Established in 2015, it works in conjunction with all major libraries. It is dedicated to making strong, mutual connections between indie and small-press authors and an extensive network of libraries. The core commitment of the LibraryBub service is to help librarians to identify acclaimed books from the independent publishing sector. LibraryBub introduces thousands of librarians to bestselling and award-winning books from the independent publishing sector. These books hold immense potential for enhancing the lives of their readers. Acclaimed novelist Ling Ma recalls, "As a kid, I went to the library every weekend. It was how I learned English, and how I realized the possibility of alternative worlds. The library was so essential to me that my first job in high school was shelving books at one, partly because I loved being around its culture and community." Librarians enable writers to make that kind of difference to people's lives, and LibraryBub CEO Alinka Rutkowska considers it a privilege to support them in that role.
