In 2021, Dr. Duncan published his third book, The Mahogany Project (MLP). The MLP provides a unique reflection of systemic and institutional barriers associated with racism, stereotypes, and misinformation. The Five Points of Progressive Change provides a methodology that features synchronization among each change point. By working in unison in different areas within the MLP, individuals, families, and generations of Blacks can benefit from one desired path of change simultaneously with another. This synchronization method allows the opportunity to improve some of the stubborn negative connotations of the disparities noted with African-Americans and their ethnic peers. Systemic and institutional racism must be countered with a systemic and institutional response. and the first steps to addressing racial wealth, healthcare, education, employment, and other disparities are provided within the project, as discussed throughout the book.
In 2017, Dr. Duncan published his second book, The Four Fits of Dynamic Leadership. With this book, comes a new philosophy that will enable leaders to take new perspectives on old problems such as employee morale and engagement, wages and benefits, communication, and work-life balance. The result will be a team whose members can use their wide range of skills to reach shared goals. Empowering employees to achieve objectives is the basis of leadership, and building a connection between the leader and the team is paramount. To do so requires understanding of each of the four fits or areas: mental, emotional, team, and personal power. This comprehensive handbook explores each in detail and includes worksheets to clarify important lessons.
In 2016, Dr. Duncan published his first book, The Four Fits of Holistic Growth. The Four Fits incorporates 16 axioms, or foundations, to achieve a holistic frame of mind. Worksheets enhance the material provided with each axiom to give a deeper relationship and connection between the words read and the actions created with each worksheet. Even though this book fits well for individuals of all ages, The Four Fits of Holistic Growth helps provide a foundation for readers to define success at a level that best suits them. As readers continue to read the stories and build upon each foundation, the quest for personal growth and development is accomplished.
