The Impact of Organizational Ethical Climate on Organizational Commitment and Job Performance
This study seeks to evaluate the impact of organizational ethical climate on the organizational commitment and job performance of Japanese-funded manufacturing enterprises (JFMEs) in China using empirical analysis and discussion, and includes a review of related research into economic ethics as well as a quantitative analysis of the various types of organizational ethical climates typically found in JFMEs operating in China. While prior studies have approached the topic from an ethical, psychological, philosophical and/or sociological perspective, none have specifically analyzed organizational ethical climate and its effect on organizational commitment and job performance under these conditions. Nor has an analysis of the relationship between organizational ethical climate, organizational commitment, and job performance ever been approached from the perspective of economic ethics. This study illustrates the feasibility of researching organizational ethics from an economic perspective, while laying out a theoretical basis for exploring the philosophy of economics from the perspective of economic ethics.

Small to Medium Sized Enterprises and Corporate Social Responsibility
While the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities of small firms have been analysed to some extent, their engagement in international networks relating to CSR is less understood. Most of these networks primarily address the needs of multinational corporations. Surprisingly, however, the number of small firms participating in such institutions has substantially increased over recent years. But what is the reason for this new interest of SME in institutional forms of CSR? Based on a qualitative empirical study of German small firms' participation in the most prominent CSR institution, the UN Global Compact, this book explores the drivers for small firm participation. The motivations are complex and do not follow the same hierarchical order associated with large business behaviour. Rather, reasons for institutional engagement suggest a heterarchical structure, where alignment is contingent upon factors such as individual CSR perception, self-conception or social environment. The book explains why small firms prefer to engage in sustainable development within institutionalised forms of CSR rather than act in isolation, and provides recommendations on how to support and thus increase SME participation in institutionalised forms of civic engagement.

Glass Half-Broken
Why the gender gap persists and how we can close it.For years women have made up the majority of college-educated workers in the United States. In 2019, the gap between the percentage of women and the percentage of men in the workforce was the smallest on record. But despite these statistics, women remain underrepresented in positions of power and status, with the highest-paying jobs the most gender-imbalanced. Even in fields where the numbers of men and women are roughly equal, or where women actually make up the majority, leadership ranks remain male-dominated.The persistence of these inequalities begs the question: Why haven't we made more progress?In Glass Half-Broken, Colleen Ammerman and Boris Groysberg reveal the pervasive organizational obstacles and managerial actions—limited opportunities for development, lack of role models and sponsors, and bias in hiring, compensation, and promotion—that create gender imbalances. Bringing to light the key findings from the latest research in psychology, sociology, organizational behavior, and economics, Ammerman and Groysberg show that throughout their careers—from entry-level to mid-level to senior-level positions—women get pushed out of the leadership pipeline, each time for different reasons. Presenting organizational and managerial strategies designed to weaken and ultimately break down these barriers, Glass Half-Broken is the authoritative resource that managers and leaders at all levels can use to finally shatter the glass ceiling.

Counting Statistics for Dependent Random Events
This book on counting statistics presents a novel copula-based approach to counting dependent random events. It combines clustering, combinatorics-based algorithms and dependence structure in order to tackle and simplify complex problems, without disregarding the hierarchy of or interconnections between the relevant variables. These problems typically arise in real-world applications and computations involving big data in finance, insurance and banking, where experts are confronted with counting variables in monitoring random events.In this new approach, combinatorial distributions of random events are the core element. In order to deal with the high-dimensional features of the problem, the combinatorial techniques are used together with a clustering approach, where groups of variables sharing common characteristics and similarities are identified and the dependence structure within groups is taken into account. The original problems can then be modeled using new classes of copulas, referred to here as clusterized copulas, which are essentially based on preliminary groupings of variables depending on suitable characteristics and hierarchical aspects.The book includes examples and real-world data applications, with a special focus on financial applications, where the new algorithms' performance is compared to alternative approaches and further analyzed. Given its scope, the book will be of interest to master students, PhD students and researchers whose work involves or can benefit from the innovative methodologies put forward here. It will also stimulate the empirical use of new approaches among professionals and practitioners in finance, insurance and banking.

"Innovation done quicker, better, and cheaper. Innovation for the modern marketeer" Hugh Pile, CEO Blue Skies, ex L'Oreal CMO Western Europe "Agile Innovation responds to ever-changing consumer and business needs. It is fast, flexible and focussed to maximise success." Laura Sheard, Marketing and Innovation DirectorInnovation in Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) and Fast Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) has been relatively unchanged over the last 40 years. Innovation has been a source of profitable growth for scores of companies worldwide. Innovation helps grow sales, profits, people's capabilities, and shareholder value with a Return on Investment (ROI) of 185%.However, CPG's innovation model readily accepts an innovation failure rate of around 90%, with limited opportunities over the last 20 years to significantly improve that failure rate. No matter the company's size, its innovation budget, and its experience, the failure rate exceeds the successes. This failure represents a massive inefficiency in the innovation ecosystem as well as hindering successful innovation. It means, on average, for every successful product, it costs 瞿41m and countless years lost.Innovation needs to innovate. We need to not only find a better way to innovate but to do it cheaper and faster. Agile Innovation does that, and we want to share how you can do that too.The Agile Innovation Playbook sets out the opportunities for innovation in a CPG company, the costs of innovation, and the current reasons for innovation failure. We define our Agile Innovation vision as zero per cent failure, then describe how your business would look and feel with that context, along with how to bring Agile Innovation into your organisation. Our last section helps implement Agile Innovation into your business, highlighting the tools you'll need, your teams' structure, and how to govern Agile Innovation.The Agile Innovation Playbook is a practical book written to help all CPG and FMCG companies improve their innovation success. It offers you the tools to develop better products for consumers, bring more profit to retailers and manufacturers, enhance job satisfaction for employees, and improve shareholder value.
