Entrepreneurism Under Attack
The progressive left believe that the capitalists are the root cause for the inability to have an equal distribution of wealth! They refuse to debate on the facts that capitalism has had the most impact on changing poverty and servitude into freedom and the best living conditions in the world. As we began the first chapters we profiled the small to medium businesses that represent approximately sixty percent of all employees in the United States! So, who are the so called rich? The entrepreneur who has risked everything, driving themselves to inhuman heights, lived with anxieties that few have experienced and who have a heart for every single person that they employ. Yes, that is who the rich are; that is who the left is targeting along with anyone that has assets more than their chosen standard amount. After that same entrepreneur has suffered and endured all of those agonies of ownership, he is asked to forfeit to those that have endured none of those pains. The last question you must ask the progressive left...take away the incentive of success, give away those earned assets to the underserving and what do you think will happen to our economy, our stability as a nation and our ability to drag the under privileged up to the privileged? The people of this country are the biggest "givers" in the world. Across this country every catastrophe is followed by massive giving. Our Elmbrook Church has a world-wide mission with more than seventy-two missionaries in the field with a budget of two and half million dollars. This is happening all over the country, church after church and charity after charity. Elmbrook church had a targeted forty thousand dollars for a Ukrainian relief fund and received over one hundred and thirty thousand dollars! Ask yourself where did that giving come from? Who were the givers? Yes, not just the entrepreneur, but all the employee/partners that are instrumental in the business success! Remember the conservative's core beliefs...they desire to give to those that cannot but refuse to give to those that can but... will not!

Proscribing Peace
Proscribing peace offers a systematic examination of the impact of proscription on peace negotiations. By introducing the concept of 'linguistic ceasefire', Haspeslagh adds to our understanding of the timing and sequencing of peace processes in the context of proscription. With relevance for more than half of the conflicts around the world in which an armed group is listed as a terrorist organisation, 'linguistic ceasefire' helps to explain why certain conflicts remain stuck in the 'terrorist' framing, while others emerge from it. International proscription regimes criminalise both the actor and the act of terrorism. Proscribing peace calls for an end to the amalgamation between acts and actors. By focussing on the acts instead, Haspeslagh argues, international policy would be better able to consider the violent actions both of armed groups and those of the state. By separating the act and the actor, change - and thus peace - become possible.

The Dictatorship of Woke Capital
For the better part of a century, the Left has been waging a slow, methodical battle for control of the institutions of Western civilization. During most of that time, "business"-- and American Big Business, in particular -- remained the last redoubt for those who believe in free people, free markets, and the criticality of private property. Over the past two decades, however, that has changed, and the Left has taken its long march to the last remaining non-Leftist institution. Over the course of the past two years or so, a small handful of politicians on the Right -- Senators Tom Cotton, Marco Rubio, and Josh Hawley, to name three -- have begun to sense that something is wrong with American business and have sought to identify the problem and offer solutions to rectify it. While the attention of high-profile politicians to the issue is welcome, to date the solutions they have proposed are inadequate, for a variety of reasons, including a failure to grasp the scope of the problem, failure to understand the mechanisms of corporate governance, and an overreliance on state-imposed, top-down solutions. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the problem and the players involved, both on the aggressive, hardcharging Left and in the nascent conservative resistance. It explains what the Left is doing and how and why the Right must be prepared and willing to fight back to save this critical aspect of American culture from becoming another, more economically powerful version of the "woke" college campus.
Environmental Strategy for Businesses
There are as many ways for companies to improve their environmental performance as there are stakeholders who are calling upon them to do so. If companies make the right choices, they can satisfy their stakeholders, enhance their financial position, and help address the climate crisis. The wrong choices invite stakeholder scorn and risk wasting valuable resources. What problems do companies need to solve, and how can they solve them, to achieve the promise of shared value environmental performance? This book presents a framework for companies to design, develop and implement an effective environmental strategy that identifies environmental improvements, enables value exchanges with stakeholders, and improves competitive advantage. The step-by-step guide through this framework, illustrated with many examples, shows the promise of environmental initiatives that align with strategic opportunities and resources and the pitfalls of those that do not.
The Microstress Effect
How a million little things are dragging you down, and what to do about it.There's a force we encounter every day that we aren't aware of--and it threatens to derail otherwise promising careers and lives: microstress.This hidden epidemic of small moments of stress has insidiously infiltrated both our work and our personal lives with invisible but devastating effects. Microstress doesn't trigger the normal stress response in our brains to help us deal with it. Instead, it embeds itself in our minds and accumulates daily, one microstress on top of the other. The long-term impact can be debilitating. Unregistered microstress weighs us down, damages our physical and emotional health, and contributes to a decline in our well-being. What's more, microstress is baked into our lives. The source is seldom a classic antagonist, such as a demanding client or a jerk boss. Instead, it comes from the people with whom we are closest: our friends, family, and colleagues.The good news is that once you understand microstress, you can fight back. Drawing on fresh research, Rob Cross and Karen Dillon explain the science behind the phenomenon. They also share the secrets of a small set of people who've endured their share of microstress but have still managed to cultivate relationships that enable them to thrive both at work and in life. Compelling interviews with these high achievers bring to life best practices that show you how to build resilience against microstress and ultimately how to find purpose--purpose that helps you break free from this quietly invasive force that's stealing your life.

Stitching Governance for Labour Rights
Transnational labour governance is in urgent need of a new paradigm of democratic participation, with those who are most affected - typically workers - placed at the centre. To achieve this, principles of industrial democracy and transnational governance must come together to inform institutions within global supply chains. This book traces the development of 'transnational industrial democracy', using responses to the 2013 Rana Plaza disaster as the empirical context. A particular focus is placed on the Bangladesh Accord and the JETI Workplace Social Dialogue programme. Drawing on longitudinal field research from 2013-2020, the authors argue that the reality of modern-day supply chain capitalism has neither optimal institutional frameworks nor effective structures of industrial relations. Informed by principles of industrial democracy, the book aims at enhancing emerging forms of private transnational governance as second-best institutions.

Fruitful Living
Life is a gift, and it is full and pregnant with possibilities. With this gift, God granted purpose and provision; elements created to yield fruitfulness worth multiplying.Although a phenomenal present, life is overwhelming at times. Constant juggling leads to frustration, anxiety, and poor choice selection. When this is the norm, thoughts of failure, shame, guilt, incompetence, and unworthiness raise their ugly heads, attempting to control life.For believers, those who accept salvation through Jesus Christ, this is not God's plan. His plan gives The Holy Spirit, equipped with the Fruit of the Spirit, access to demonstrate spiritual control. Spiritual control increases the probability of believers attaining a rich, fruitful life.Fearfully and wonderfully made believers are a big deal. Live like it! Produce thoughts, feelings, and actions that yield abundant living. Break away from living beneath your value, penalizing yourself for mistakes, and falling into destructive behavior.Receive God's love in the person of The Holy Spirit as your best friend. Engage in constant communication, generating strength, power, and desire to take actions that foster spiritual productivity. You will be unstoppable, taking advantage of such a relationship.Why do I invite you to join me in discovering God's plan for your fruitfulness? Because this journey of discovery led to recovery for me. As a believer, I knew about some of God's promises. Yes, I knew of the Trinity, God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. However, I didn't fully grasp how much God loved me and what He gave me in this three-in-one being. And I had no clue of the power of The Holy Spirit. Here was my best friend living right inside of me, a sure ticket to success and productivity God's way.Why was I suffering and subjecting myself to pain, disappointment, and poor mental health when the answers to all I would need to know were right inside me. I want to shout for joy on the one hand and weep for the misery I allowed in my life and the lives of others by not getting to know The Holy Spirit and developing my relationship with Him. Once I came to the knowledge of what I had with The Holy Spirit, what I could do with Him and how I could influence others, it was a no-brainer. I had to use this power!!!We all want to be successful, accomplished, and significant. Fruitful Living addresses the godly principles for achieving such feats. Believers get the opportunity to examine the inner working of the force created by God and directed by The Holy Spirit, using the Fruit of the Spirit. This force is the major advantage in yielding godly outcomes in life, which bring Heaven to earth -- legacy building for the King.As a believer, you are born with an advantage. Why not use it and honor God? Your trust, faith, and obedience in this decision serve in the assignment of carrying out His purpose. What a privilege to be considered worthy of this high calling!

Lady Diversity Power
Women make up half of the world's population, yet they hold less than 25% of senior leadership positions across all industries.

Educating for Business, Public Service and the Social Sciences
Tertiary economics and business education started early in Australia but was not organised on a faculty basis until the 20th century.

Its progress for the next 80 years is chronicled in this comprehensive history of the Faculty of Economics.The book presents a broad overview of staff, students and courses of study during Depression, war, postwar reconstruction, student unrest and successful moves to add further Business studies. A prelude surveys the 19th-century beginnings and the epilogue presents the varied education opportunities offered for the 21st century by the Faculty of Economics and Business.
Addressing Systemic Discrimination by Reframing the Problem
The book introduces and demonstrates the importance of three new concepts in Addressing Systemic Discrimination. These are Focus on the Individual; Evolution of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) to Equity, Inclusion and Individual Engagement (EIIE) and Safe Haven Dialogues (SHD) Reframing Process. The book describes the contributions of Equity and Inclusion in determining the psychological safety of an organization and introduces the Equity-Inclusion Culture Matrix as a tool to assess these cultures.In the second section of the book, the author presents a case series of Individuals from a wide cross-section of professions including academia, industry, government, and healthcare, who have experienced Systemic Discrimination. The SHD Reframing Process is then used to objectively determine aspects of Systemic Discrimination which are depicted in these cases. A VIP (Victors over Injustice in their Professions) panel reviews issues of Equity and Inclusion and seeks a Better Problem to Solve to achieve the Desired Outcome by Reframing the Problem. Understanding the Aggrieved Individual's position within the Equity Inclusion Culture Matrix helps to find a Better Problem to Solve.

As an adult, she downplayed her Latino heritage and her life as a mother to fit in. But after two decades of hiding and feeling exhausted and frustrated, she realized that to truly belong she needed to accept herself first. It worked.

Through her own story and those of other top executives, she offers powerful strategies and simple tools on how you too can show up as your authentic self at work. If you've ever hidden your identity to fit in, this book will set you on the path to succeed at levels higher than you ever thought possible.

Capital and Capitalism
Capitalist societies need to undergo major change to provide for the material needs of all the people who work within the system, not just the 1 percent. They have become dysfunctional and need a different kind of orientation to continue in existence. Instead of creating wealth, which is what they are supposed to accomplish, they have created nothing but debt for the past several decades and are now in serious trouble with regard to finding the wherewithal to keep on functioning as viable societies that can provide job opportunities for their workers and the promise of a better life in the future for their citizens. The coronavirus pandemic has exposed just how many people live paycheck to paycheck and have not been able to accumulate any kind of savings. The 1 percent, meanwhile, have benefited greatly and have vastly increased their wealth over the past several decades. This book does not advocate the need to turn to a form of socialism, however, to give most workers a chance at a decent life for themselves. What is needed is a redefinition of capitalism to make it work for everyone. Capital and Capitalism seeks to uncover various myths about capitalism that hinder our ability to change the system and discuss the task of redefining capitalism by examining where neo-liberalism went wrong and what role restructuring the corporation along stakeholder lines can play in making capitalism more responsive to the entire society.It will be of interest to researchers, academics, and students in the fields of business and society, leadership, and business ethics.
