Western Individualism
Individualism is not individuality. Individualism is our new, uniquely Western insistence that people are single, solitary selves: I am just I, you are just you, and he or she is just he or she. Individuality is different tastes, opinions, and so forth we traditionally cherished. Paradoxically, we've become much alike. The author's experiences through his corporate legal career demonstrate that the only sustainable basis for morality between people has proven to be tribalism of some form, inspiring us to a common good. People in big corporations are like people outside, but with our characters most obvious in tightly confined spaces. Without tribalism, ethics are just marketing. We might treat our friends and family well, but not people whose paths we cross. If tribalism leaves people without empathy for people of other tribes, then Western individualism produces people without empathy for anyone.

Teaching as a Knowledge Profession
What knowledge do teachers need for 21st century teaching? Today, teachers have an important role in guiding and shaping students' use of digital tools and optimising the educational benefits of their digital experiences. They are also agents of inclusive, equitable education and ambassadors of embracing diversity as an enriching element of our societies. To fulfil these roles teachers need to be experts of teaching and learning, and base their practice on a specialised and updated body of knowledge. However, there is a great need for a better understanding of the knowledge and skills that teaching in the 21st century requires. This is the ambition for the next cycle of the OECD Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) and its new Teacher Knowledge Survey (TKS) assessment module. Studying teaching as a knowledge profession across education systems is as challenging as it is important. This publication aims to contribute to this challenging endeavour by summarising the state-of-art on teacher knowledge and its measurement across systems. It discusses cutting-edge methodologies and designs and outlines implications for research as well as policies and practices for strengthening knowledge-based and evidence-informed practices in schools.
Create Your Business Plan for the Digital Age Guide to an Effective Business Plan
"Napoleon mocked the United Kingdom as 'a nation of shopkeepers'. What of that nation today in which leading businesses sell physical goods without holding any inventory? Entrepreneurs are opening new enterprises without 'bricks-and-mortar' premises, while their back-office staff operate miles away. Innovation is the very root of growth, but it demands adaptive thinking - open minds - and plenty of imagination.Whether you are planning a start-up or taking a mature business forward, crafting your business plan forces critical analysis. This, in turn, demands you justify your suppositions. It serves to eliminate the guesswork and to reduce risk. Above all, your business plan is not merely a tool for gaining investment but becomes, truly, your day-to-day survival handbookHow to Write a Modern Business Plan is a guide to encourage fresh thinking.

Teachers Getting the Best out of Their Students
Developing, promoting and maintaining a good professional teaching workforce from primary to upper secondary education is a policy imperative for education systems around the world. The data drawn from the OECD Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) can help policy makers and education practitioners design policies and practices that enhance teaching across education levels. This report presents TALIS 2018 findings for countries and economies that took part in the primary and upper secondary education survey. It focuses on the following research questions: What are the levels of teachers' and school leaders' professionalism in primary and upper secondary education? What are some of the educational challenges unique to each education level? What are the factors that could explain differences in the levels of professionalism across education levels? The findings offer a broader view of teachers and school principals across all levels of compulsory education and the similarities and differences in the issues they face. The report also offers policy reflections on these findings.
Moral Gray Zones
Anyone who has been employed by an organization knows not every official workplace regulation must be followed. When management consistently overlooks such breaches, spaces emerge in which both workers and supervisors engage in officially prohibited, yet tolerated practices--gray zones. When discovered, these transgressions often provoke disapproval; when company materials are diverted in the process, these breaches are quickly labeled theft. Yet, why do gray zones persist and why are they unlikely to disappear? In Moral Gray Zones, Michel Anteby shows how these spaces function as regulating mechanisms within workplaces, fashioning workers' identity and self-esteem while allowing management to maintain control. The book provides a unique window into gray zones through its in-depth look at the manufacture and exchange of illegal goods called homers, tolerated in a French aeronautic plant. Homers such as toys for kids, cutlery for the kitchen, or lamps for homes, are made on company time with company materials for a worker's own purpose and use. Anteby relies on observations at retirees' homes, archival data, interviews, and surveys to understand how plant workers and managers make sense of this tacit practice. He argues that when patrolled, gray zones like the production of homers offer workplaces balanced opportunities for supervision as well as expression. Cautioning against the hasty judgment that gray zone practices are simply wrong, Moral Gray Zones contributes to a deeper understanding of the culture, group dynamics, and deviance found in organizations.

How does purpose help you grow a profitable business that people love?What exactly does it mean to be a purpose-led business?What higher purpose should your business serve and how do you serve it in a meaningful way?Purpose in business has become a common expectation, from employees, customers and investors. Yet many business leaders struggle to understand what it means for their business.For Love & Money offers clarity on the most recent evolution of organisational purpose.

Key Indicators for Asia and the Pacific 2021
This publication provides updated statistics on a comprehensive set of economic, financial, social, and environmental measures as well as select indicators for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The vital data within Key Indicators are now accessible in a digitized format, with the new Key Indicators Database. The report covers the 49 regional members of ADB. It discusses trends in development progress and the challenges to achieving inclusive and sustainable economic growth across Asia and the Pacific. This 52nd edition discusses how the COVID-19 pandemic has intensified the challenges of meeting development targets, which needed urgent attention even before the global health crisis began. To put into practice the "leave no one behind" principle of the SDGs, the availability of more detailed and informative data is crucial. With the pandemic intensifying society's reliance on digital platforms for remote working and learning, as well as for shopping and entertainment, the 2021 report features a special supplement, Capturing the Digital Economy: A Proposed Measurement Framework and Its Applications, which is rooted in input-output analysis and uses readily available national accounts data. The study provides a sound basis on which to assess the relative importance of the digital economy in national and global production processes.

A Philosopher’s Take on Economics
Economics is the meeting place of these two worlds. Whilst the immediate concern of economics is policy in the "world of matter", the key participant in economic life is the human being, whose ultimate purpose of participation is to do with the "world of spirit". Hence economics meets these two realms, stands at their interface. Its task is to ensure the rule of justice. This book is aimed at presenting a common-sense, first-principles, philosophical perspective on a vital subject that seems to have lost its way. There is such a thing as justice, there is such a thing as truth; and these two need not be lost forever. This book suggests that solutions can be found by returning to first principles: - Economics is the knowledge to support and encourage prosperity whilst managing human greed. - Economics is to provide for the practical possibility of every individual fully developing his or her potential as an intelligent, creative, happy being. - Economics is the institution and protection of the reign of economic freedom.

Involuntary Exit
It can take less than a minute to get fired. Less than a minute to hear the words that change your life as you've known it. You're stunned, shocked, humiliated--because your career has defined your life and you've been blindsided. You're a company Loyalist with a capital L, and you've been sucker punched professionally. How do you even talk about this? Countless books focus on leadership and resilience, but none of them take you through what actually happens to women leaders who are suddenly let go, or who endure untenable circumstances and ultimately fire themselves. None of them take you, step by step, through the emotional process of acceptance and beginning again. And that's where Involuntary Exit comes in. With advice for every unexpected twist, turn, and emotional trigger, this book is based on author Robin Merle's experience at the top of billion-dollar organizations, as well as her interviews with accomplished women who were suddenly severed from their organizations and navigated their way back to success. The real-life examples she offers in these pages prove that you're not alone--and that you, too, will get through this. Whether you've been fired or need to move on, Involuntary Exit will help you rediscover your value and emerge as a stronger leader on your own terms.

Navigating Your Journey
What's Your "ALL"? We've all been in those moments when we feel stuck. It feels like life is just happening to you. Even in those hardest moments, there are always opportunities to take control and navigate purposefully toward your goals. In Navigating Your Journey, author Vicki Updike shares her personal experiences and lessons learned as she continues to help women in their careers. No matter what your goals are, Updike meets you where you are and helps you see and take the next step in your journey to finding your "all." This book does not attempt to define what it means to "have it all." Rather, it encourages women to define their own, personal "all" and helps them achieve that goal. Your journey can only be defined by you. No one else can define it for you. Not society. Not a husband or partner. Not friends. Not the media. Not your networks. You are entirely up to you.
