Gower Business and Management 2015

Welcome,
In the first half of 2015 we have seen the publication of a number of exciting titles on both our Professional Practice and
Applied Research lists and some clear themes are emerging: culture, diversity, sustainability, women and business among them.
In the practitioner arena, the trend for books on ethical and authentic leadership continues apace and Reframing the Leadership
Landscape: Creating a Culture of Collaboration by Roger Hayes and Reginald Watts and The Tone from the Top by Ian Muir are
just two examples of how leaders must learn to navigate the new normal, they can be found on page 27.
We continue to expand our offerings on Business and Sustainability, particularly in the Applied Research programme and
largely through our three recently established series, which focus on promoting socially, environmentally and economically
aware organisations. We have six titles publishing in the Finance, Governance and Sustainability series, edited by Gler Aras,
in 2015/2016, two in the Integral Green Society and Economy series, edited by Ronnie Lessem and Alexander Schieffer and two
in the Women and Sustainability series, edited by Kiymet aliyurt.
Theres also a growing focus on Islamic business and our Islamic Business and Finance series, edited by Ishaq Bhatti, has
3 forthcoming titles, which draw on expertise from across the Islamic world.
Whatever your business need, Gower offers concrete solutions from thought leaders, both practitioner and academic, across
all disciplines.

and Rachel LAbb
www.gowerpublishing.com/islamicbusiness
For at least the last two decades, patterns of increased

economic activity by indigenous peoples in many countries
have been viewed to be significantly on the rise. Indigenous
People and Economic Development reveals some of the
characteristics of this economic activity, coloured by the
unique regard and philosophy of life that indigenous people
around the world have. The successes, difficulties and
obstacles to economic development, their solutions and
innovative practices in business all of these elements,
based on research findings, are discussed in this book
and offer an inside view of the dynamics of the indigenous
societies which are evolving in a globalised and highly
interconnected contemporary world.

Industrial Poverty
Yesterday Sweden, Today Europe,
Tomorrow America
Sven R. Larson
Dr Larsons book title should send a chill up the spine of
policymakers all over the world. Industrial Poverty explains
how preservation of the welfare state and its culture of
dependence is setting the stage for the world to become
poorer for everyone. While there is still room to debate details,
Dr Larsons shot across the bow must be heeded to rebuild
policies that lead to growing prosperity.
Byron Schlomach, Director of Center for Economic Prosperity
at the Goldwater Institute, USA
Conventional wisdom says that Europes crisis is a financial
crisis. But is this really the case? In Industrial Poverty,
economist Sven R. Larson, challenges this view and suggests
instead that Europe is in a state of permanent economic
decline. Using Sweden in the 1990s as an example, he shows
how a welfare-state crisis combined with the wrong kind of
austerity policies replaces prosperity with industrial poverty.
Today, Europe is going through the same transition into
industrial poverty. Tomorrow, it could be the United States,
unless Congress and the President take decisive action
against the runaway budget deficit.

Masudul Choudhury is a leading scholar in Islamic

finance and banking. In this book, he demonstrates his deep
understanding of the ethical implications of Islam for these
activities. Aspects covered include philosophy, applied topics,
social welfare effects and policy issues, just to mention a few.
All who have an interest in this subject will profit from reading
this book.
Clement Tisdell, The University of Queensland and Fellow of
the Academy of Social Sciences in Australia
Islamic Financial Economy and Islamic Banking, is a thorough
work concerning the epistemological foundation of the
Islamic world-system.
The book presents an original contribution to the theme
of the generalized-system model of shariah. The model,
derived from the Quran and Sunnah (Prophetic guidance)
incorporates wide analytical coverage of the purpose and
objective of the Islamic worldview (maqasid as-shariah),
within the context of Islamic economics and finance in
particular.
The author covers issues that are at odds with the existing
understanding of Islamic economics and finance and assesses
the specific goals, which define the field, and how they relate
to one another in todays world of financial volatility. He
outlines a new heterodox approach to economic theory.

institutions, and the ethical preferences in Islamic choice

Gower Business and Management Books 2015
In his new book Competitiveness in the Real Economy,

Rui Vinhas da Silva provides a rounded, multi-disciplinary
perspective linking national competitiveness, economics
and management. His emphasis is on value aggregation as
a key driver of national competitiveness across sectors in
the real economy. The author challenges other approaches
that underplay the role and responsibility of entrepreneurs
in aggregating value and stigmatize labour. He then
explores the links between productivity and national
competitiveness, acknowledging that the nature and
dynamics of contemporary global competition requires a
sharper focus on value aggregation. The role of exports and
the attraction of foreign direct investment inflows in building
national GDP are examined, as well as the notion that culture,
being cosmopolitan and understanding aspirational and
discriminatory consumers with high disposable income are
key drivers of success in the global economy. The author
highlights the limitations of current economics in responding
to contemporary challenges, and acknowledges that the
complexity of economic development problems comes from
diversity and the heterogeneity of global actors. The book
concludes by addressing the implications of these issues in
terms of how the management skills needed for competitive
advantage might be best developed.

Rediscovering Sustainability
Economics of the Finite Earth
A.R.G. Heesterman and W.H. Heesterman
The strength of this book is not in offering new data
on climate changes or environmental impacts of energy
consumption. Its main contribution is bridging in an original
way the gap between environmental science data and
economic strategies and systems for a sustainable world.
Rediscovering Sustainability is compulsory reading for those
teaching, studying, analysing, or otherwise involved in the
nexus between science and policy of the sustainability debate.

INTEGRAL GREEN
SOCIETY AND ECONOMY
Series Editors: Ronnie Lessem and Alexander Schieffer
There is a profusion of book titles with green and indeed
with integral credentials, including those focused on
sustainable development. Commendable as such works
are they tend to be lacking in one or other of three
major respects. Firstly, these authors tend to focus most
specifically on the environmental and ecological, if not also
technological, aspects of green and in that respect are not
altogether integral. By integral, as such, Ronnie Lessem
and Alexander Schieffer encompass not only nature and
community, but also culture and spirituality, science and
technology, politics and economics as an integral whole.
Secondly, and equally notably, the few such integral books
that have appeared, often either American or European,
tend to be culture-free. In other words, they are written
from a perspective whereby the ideas advanced could apply
anywhere in the world, whereas Lessem and Schieffers
integral societal green economic approach is distinctive in
that it takes account of the particularity of a society, or indeed
region, of the world, whereby one complements the other.
Thirdly, the notion of integral, while increasingly being
adopted today, is generally associated with the work of Ken
Wilber (for example Wilber, K. (2008), Integral Spirituality,
and is not necessarily associated with the environmental
movement, in its broadest sense. The editors acknowledge
the integral work of Wilber, but do not restrict themselves
to such. Their integral orientation draws on the whole of
the world south, east, north and west rather than merely
on America, or for that matter India or Germany.
Finally, many books or authors with green credentials
may be outstanding authorities in their own right, backed
by important constituencies (for example Hawken, P. et al.
(2010), Natural Capitalism, who is a co-founder of Rocky
Mountain Institute in Colorado, USA), but they will primarily
represent their constituency. While the two editors of the
series are co-founders of Trans4m, based in Geneva, the
rationale behind the proposed books in the series is that
each of the edited readings represent constituencies in
themselves, albeit ones that are all linked within an overall
integral green ethos.
An African Phoenix Rising

Edited by Liz Mamukwa, Ronnie Lessem
and Alexander Schieffer
Integral Green Zimbabwe features a diverse community of
writers united by a shared concern with fostering multi-level
approaches to development and imagining possibilities for
a better future. Drawing upon a wide range of community
experiences and personal stories, it avoids didactics, exhibits
hope, and is underpinned by the principles of care and
commitment. Integral Green Zimbabwe is an important
locally-based and innovative contribution to a growing
body of literature disenchanted by the shortcomings of
grand theories of development.
Daniel A. Yon, York University, Canada
Integral Green Zimbabwe: An African Phoenix Rising marks
the debut of the Integral Green Society and Economy series,
which links the philosophical integral age with the practical
green movement. The series blends elements of nature and
community, culture and spirituality, science and technology,
politics and economics while this particular volume
focuses specifically on Zimbabwe, as well as Southern
Africa, drawing on the particular issues and capacities
that this country and region represent.

David Booth
Examples from Around the World
Strategy Journeys draws on the authors experience of

helping organisations develop effective strategic plans
over the past 20 years, including all aspects from strategy
development to planning to implementation, and covering
both process and content. This has been informed by an
enthusiasm for continuing professional development and
broad learning, and reinforced by a commitment to client
feedback and reflective practice.
Organisations have never had greater need for a flexible,
resilient and engaging approach to strategic planning than
now. How do those leading an organisation know where to
start, what approach to take and how to go about the process
of strategic planning? This book will help, by demystifying
the concept and propounding a first principles approach
to developing a strategic plan within the context of the
individual organisation, and the flexibility to adapt the
process to focus on what really matters to the organisation.

Organizational Justice
during Strategic Change
The Employees Perspective
Marcos Komodromos and Daphne Halkias
Organizational leaders often struggle to establish and
sustain a trusting culture in times of constant changes in
the corporate fabric and unethical behaviour by corporate
leadership. The purpose of Organizational Justice during
Strategic Change is to examine how an organizational justice
framework can be used to explore employees perceptions
of trust, fairness, and the management of change during a
period of strategic change.
The authors research findings from the case study indicated
employees who experience trust and positive feelings
regarding their treatment within the organization are willing
to become involved in the change process and adopt positive
working relationships with their colleagues and managers.

Priya E. Abraham explains how to establish connections
across technological, cultural, and social boundaries,
mirrored in organisations succeeding in todays hybrid
business world. Abraham shows how seemingly opposing
domains (technology, business anthropology and diversity)
best leverage interactions for the benefit of organisation
development, using findings from practitioner-focused
research. The book presents a much-needed strategic
framework required for cyberconnecting: The Three
Lenses of Diversity, designed to organise thinking in the

A valuable source and resource for all interested in the BRICS.
Academics, students, journalists, managers and politicians
can all profit from this extensive volume. It tackles theoretical
and conceptual problems regarding not only the historical use
of the term BRICS, but also how the transcultural encounter
or cross cultural relations have been interpreted and dealt
with by different academic fields in the member countries.
In this reader the complexity of culture appears in full force!

Livia Barbosa, Pontifical Catholic

Transculturalism and Business in the BRIC States, edited

by Yvette Snchez and Claudia Franziska Brhwiler, is the
first handbook on the BRIC States that offers a transcultural
perspective, which goes beyond the typical how to manuals
or economic projections and provides an understanding
of transculturalism as it is studied and practised in the
respective countries themselves. This unique reference
book also offers insights into the relations between the
corresponding states and the challenges facing those trying
to foster more intense business exchanges.

An Indian Approach to Human Values

in Management
TRANSFORMATION AND INNOVATION
G.P. Rao
Series Editors: Ronnie Lessem and Alexander Schieffer

Business as usual no longer works. The time has come to fundamentally rethink enterprise, economics and development.
The Gower Transformation and Innovation series, with contributions by leading thinkers-and-doers from diverse cultures
across the globe, combines theory and practice, informing both decision makers and scholars. It provides cutting-edge, viable
approaches to the unprecedented challenges faced by business leaders, management consultants, economic policy makers
and development agents.
The pioneering Integral Worlds approach, developed by Lessem and Schieffer, provides a unique and coherent orientation to
the wide-ranging volumes in the series. This approach combines individual, organizational and socio-economic development.
Drawing on the particularities of each and every culture, it enhances local identity while contributing to global integrity. It
activates the potential for a holistic realignment of enterprise and economics.
Integral Advantage
Revisiting Emerging Markets and Societies
Ronnie Lessem
Around the world, the failure of a society to develop is not
due to its economic limitations, in isolation, but to the failure
of nature and culture, technology and economy, to co-evolve
in unison says Ronnie Lessem. Drawing on the approach
he has developed towards the release of a societys genius
he demonstrates how the pursuit of integral advantage may
actually arise.

An African Perspective on Human Niches

and Diversity of Thought
Rica Viljoen
Never in all my reading endeavours have I met a piece that
integrates the human and corporate soul to this extent. It
invites inclusivity, creates insight and intrigues the leadership
mind in all individuals. The information, interventions and
intent shared took me on an inherent spiral journey. The
concepts are powerfully interwoven and form an integral part
in all corporate transformation processes. The book succeeds
in creating insight into the personality, culture, colour,
intelligence and ability of man and the corporate brain.
Case studies from Ghana, South Africa, Australia, Peru

and Tanzania. A synthesis of Inclusivity is presented in a
model, meta-insights are derived and the prerequisites for
Inclusivity on individual, group and organizational domains
are illustrated.
A Relational and Renewal Perspective

Ronnie Lessem and Alexander Schieffer
This book continues the integral story to show how to close
the gaps between scientific research method/process and
social science content/substance. Because transformative
masters and PhD programs are focused on the Global
South, where the vast majority of the worlds population is
based, most people with whom the authors deal select the
relational research path, and the path of renewal, over and
above the paths of reason and realization.

The examples of integral polity are very inspiring by
starting development from the local context as opposed to
the prevailing top-down method. Trans4m gives a valuable

ourselves where we stand in order to proactively shape our
future in a purposeful and sustainable way.
Helmy Abouleish, Managing Director of Sekem Group
Using case studies ranging across the globe this review of
a newly integral theory and practice provides a new lease
on life to what may increasingly be perceived as the selfseeking, insulated and occasionally violent and corrupt
realm of the political.

WOMEN AND
SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS
Series Editor: Kiymet aliyurt
The concept of sustainability hinges on perfecting the

balance between society, economy and the environment
and this issue is firmly and squarely on the corporate
agenda. After many financial crises, corruption scandals,
natural disasters and developments in e-trade, companies
understand that being sustainable and well-governed are
more important factors in the competitive market than simply
turning a profit and maximizing shareholder value.
Stakeholders, particularly shareholders, have started to
review a companys sustainability much more closely, thus,
companies know that they have to put this issue high on their
list of priorities and become increasingly transparent about
their strategies in regard to environmental, gender, social and
ethical issues. In order to be funded by these green investors
or socially responsible stakeholders, organisations must
produce non-financial statements, such as sustainability
reports or social responsibility reports, to support their
engagement with this agenda.
Sammy Kumar, Executive Board Member and Managing

Partner, Enterprise and Strategy & Transformation PwC,
Australia
With books covering topics such as social and

environmental sustainability and womens issues, women
and entrepreneurship and women and public policy, the
series will undoubtedly fill a gap in the existing literature
surrounding women in business and appeal to a broad
range of readers, including academicians, corporate board
members, CSR and sustainability directors, representatives
of female NGOs and policy regulators.
Women and Sustainability

in Business
A Global Perspective
Edited by Kiymet aliyurt
Today, sustainable companies cannot survive without
strategies involving women.
Stakeholders, regulators, NGOs and rating agencies
track both women-focused strategies and the corporate
sustainability reports of companies. Well-designed strategies
for women workers help companies to develop their financial
and social sustainability initiatives progressively.
Women and Sustainability in Business: A Global Perspective
analyses the practice of women in sustainable business, in
terms of company performance, social responsibility, board
management, entrepreneurship, employment, education,
management, social sustainability, environmental politics
and technology from a wide range of diverse, regional
perspectives, and highlights the differences between the
underdeveloped, developing and developed world.

The Seven Inconvenient Truths of Business Strategy is an

antidote to a process of strategic planning that in many
organizations is often sporadic, biased, poorly articulated
and rarely implemented with total success. Drawing
on a fundamental collection of definitive principles, the
author offers a structure for strategizing; an indicator and
explanation of strategic tools, and insights into collaborative
techniques for carrying out the process successfully:
formation, evaluation, alignment and implementation. It
will help you ensure that your strategic process is always
professional, relevant and timely.
A case study, based on the story of Cadbury, is woven
through the chapters to provide a vibrant illustration of
the value and application of the various techniques and
processes described.

Corporate Strategy in the

Age of Responsibility
Peter McManners
This book is a valuable addition to the growing field of
strategic management which seeks to integrate a concern
with the bottom-line with a reconceptualised model of
the role of the corporation in 21st-century capitalism. It is
a remarkable contribution, given its sensitivity to looming
problems of resource scarcity and the gathering momentum
behind the sustainable revolution. It is a must-read for
practitioners and theorists alike.
Gordon L. Clark, University of Oxford, UK
and Monash University, Australia
During the boom times, governments championed

de-regulation and business responded by adopting an
anything-goes attitude. In these straitened times, strategic
analysis has to engage with the challenges that society
faces to create resilient corporations fit for the 21st century.
In Corporate Strategy in the Age of Responsibility, Peter
McManners provides a strategic framework for navigating
the new economic environment.
The book steers senior business leaders towards radically
new strategic thinking for surviving and thriving in a
challenging and changing environment.

Design Attitude
Open Design and Innovation
Design Leadership
Kamil Michlewski
Facilitating Creativity in Everyone
Securing the Strategic Value of Design
Leon Cruickshank
Raymond Turner
Cruickshank provides us with unique and fascinating

insights into the rapidly expanding field of open design and
innovation, describing its origins and underlying theories
alongside contemporary applications that do facilitate
creativity in everyone.
One of the most refreshing aspects of Turners writing

is its clear roots in his years of experience as a design leader
in both consultancy and client environments. Turner
uses conversational patterns in his argument rather than
heavy-handed and gimmicky summary checklists to make
this happen. The result is both an engaging read and a
reference that earns its position on the bookshelf of any
leader looking to navigate the tricky landscapes we face
in the vision and practice of design.
Kamil Michlewski has for the first time given us an accessible,

well-evidenced insight into the Designer and their contribution
to organisations and society. Offering us the essence of what it
is to be a designer and how these essential attitudes enhance
economies, society and the environment.
Rachel Cooper OBE, Director of Imagination Lancaster,
University of Lancaster, UK
Design Attitude makes the compelling argument that any
firm in any profession in any land will be better equipped
for the 21st century world of business if they introduce into
their organizations the attitudes, behaviours, skills, and
mindset in sum, the culture of the design profession.
Kamil Michlewski describes the rise of the design profession
and its impact on organizational cultures; at the heart of the
book, however, are the five design profession behaviours that
offer a blueprint for transforming the traditional company
into an innovative, daring, and growing organization.

Design Pedagogy
Developments in Art and Design Education
Edited by Mike Tovey
This is an excellent and timely contribution to the
development of our understanding of design teaching.
As leader of the Design Research Societys Design Pedagogy
special interest group, Mike Tovey has brought together
several of its leading members to crystallize thinking in the
field. Research in design pedagogy is flourishing and this
book provides a significant contribution to the debate.
Rachel Cooper, University of Lancaster, UK

Open innovation, pro-sumers, disruptive design and brand
fanaticism are amongst a handful of new approaches to
design and innovation that have generated discussion and
media coverage in recent years. In practice, these ideas
often excite more than providing pragmatic strategies.
Open Design and Innovation develops the argument for
a more nuanced acknowledgement and facilitation of
non-professional forms of creativity; drawing on lessons
from commercial design practice; theoretical analysis
and a wider understanding of innovation.
The book offers a critique of the hype surrounding some
of the emerging phenomena and a framework to help
understand the emerging relationship between citizens
and designers.
Specifically it examines: innovation and design, mass
creativity reality and myth, the future of design (practice
and profession), through a series of case studies of new
approaches to open design practices. The text draws on
academic research, practical experience of the author in
delivering open design projects and first hand interviews
with leaders in the fields.

Branding and Product Design

An Integrated Perspective
Monika Hestad
Branding and design are moving closer together. Despite
the strong link between famous brands and the products
sold under their name, there is still a gap in understanding
the relationship between product design and brand-building
Monika Hestad plugs that gap.
Branding and Product Design examines how winning
brands appear to be more creative and authentic than less
successful ones. The book provides tools to help understand
the role of products in building a brand and guidelines
for how to bring branding and product design processes
together. There are case studies based on the authors
research, her years of teaching, and her own practice.
Interviews delivering an insider perspective on major
brands bring abstract concepts to life.
This is a book for design practitioners, marketers and others
working with designers and for those teaching and studying
at the intersection between design and branding.

DESIGN FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Series Editor: Rachel Cooper
Social responsibility, in various disguises, has been a recurring theme in design for many years. Since the 1960s several more
or less commercial approaches have evolved. In the 1970s designers were encouraged to abandon design for profit in favour
of a more compassionate approach inspired by Papanek.
Design decisions all have environmental, social and ethical impacts, so there is a pressing need to provide guidelines for
designers and design students within an overarching framework that takes a holistic approach to socially responsible design.
This edited series of guides is aimed at students of design, product development, architecture and marketing, and design
and management professionals working in the sectors covered by each title. Each volume includes:
The background and history of the topic, its significance in social and commercial contexts and trends in the field.
Exemplar design case studies.
Guidelines for the designer and advice on tools, techniques and resources available.

Design for Policy is a valuable and fresh insight into

policymaking. It underscores the urgent need to bring design
to the very heart of modern public policy. Through highly
pertinent and illuminating examples from a variety of fields,
this book shows that it is possible to transform the policy
making process and make it much more innovative. I hope
that policymakers across Europe will read it, so that they
can become policy designers and we can shape together
the future we aspire to.
Maire Geoghegan-Quinn, European Commissioner,
Research, Innovation & Science
Design for Policy charts, for the first time, the emergence
of collaborative design approaches to innovation in public
policy. It is a rich resource for policy makers, public
managers, the academic community and advisers to
government.
The book is structured in three main sections, covering the
global context of the rise of design for policy, in-depth case
studies of the application of design to policy making, and
a guide to concrete design tools for policy intent, insight,
ideation and implementation. The summary chapter lays out
a future agenda for design in government, suggesting how
to position design more firmly on the public policy stage.

In Multipreneurship, Nick Harkiolakis argues against the
more commonly held view that diversification at the level
of the individual entrepreneur, rather than that of the
established corporation, is the wrong business strategy to
pursue in times of economic crisis. The book illuminates the
multipreneurship or parallel diversification perspective
by presenting cases from around the world to highlight the
success factors attending diversification and the personal
and professional entrepreneurial attributes that lead to
successful and sustainable ventures. In so doing, Harkiolakis
provides a framework for diversification as a means of
achieving sustainable development.

The New Natural Resource

Knowledge Development, Society
and Economics
Hans Christian Garmann Johnsen
It is a commonplace that knowledge is a social
phenomenon. However, in this far-reaching and learning
treatise, Hans Christian Garmann Johnsen explores the
sociality of knowledge in a way that goes very substantially
beyond the sociology of knowledge. Johnsens exploration
takes him from Dilthey and Husserl to Hayek and Popper
to Argyris and Richard Florida. Many new and fertile ideas
are suggested when Johnsen wrestles with the thoughts
of intellectual giants, past and present.

This is a book about the role of knowledge in social and

economic development. There is a need to address the
process of developing knowledge as a social process and
The New Natural Resource starts with the argument that
knowledge is inherently a social phenomenon. This allows
us to discuss the relation between individual opinions and
what is regarded as knowledge. It also allows us to see
how economic and political and democratic processes
are interrelated.
Acknowledging that we are more dependent on contesting
processes of knowledge development in society implies
that we should address how society as a whole is able to
legitimize what it regards as the right kind of knowledge.

Managing Innovation Adoption
From Innovation to Implementation
Majharul Talukder
This book is an important source of information for the people
who deal with the strategic implementation of technological
innovation. The book is rooted in strong theories and is
a practical guide to practitioners interested in effective
implementation of technological innovations at work.
Professor Lawrence Pratchett,
University of Canberra, Australia
When Innovation is considered one of the key drivers

of corporate success, why do organisations struggle to
implement it? Research suggests that innovations fail
due to a lack of acceptance by employees; therefore
an understanding of potential adopters and the factors
influencing their decisions is essential.
Despite much research on adoption of innovation by an
organization, very little is known about its acceptance
by individuals within it. Managing Innovation Adoption
addresses this by presenting a new theoretical framework.
The data collected proves that Dr Talukders enhanced
model, based on the theory of reasoned action (TRA), the
technology acceptance model (TAM) and other conceptual
frameworks, will assist a broader understanding of how
people adopt innovations.

Territorial Development and

Action Research
Innovation Through Dialogue
James Karlsen and Miren Larrea
The book bridges the gap between analytical theories of
territorial (regional) development and practical change and
development activity. This process presupposes that problem
owners participate and become vital in the knowledge
generating process. Action research is proposed as the
research strategy that facilitates this inside out knowledge
generation process.

Professor Morten Levin, The Norwegian University

of Science and Technology, Norway
Based on their own experience of territorial development

processes from the inside-out, James Karlsen and Miren
Larrea argue that filling the gap regarding social relations in
the innovation process means researchers can engage in the
processes taking place in the territory, thereby revealing how
to make things work.
This book will help researchers face the pressure to play a
useful role in the development of their host regions. It will
help policy makers continuously learn and redefine policy
approaches and bring about collaboration through networks,
programs and projects where researchers and practitioners
in regional, local and urban development work together to
construct territorial development.

The crash of 2008 marked the end of one form of rather autistic
capitalism. But below the surface a new way of doing business
has been emerging it is ethical and has integrity because its
based on the reciprocity of deep relationships. If the economic
base has at least some bearing on the social infrastructure then

Women and Entrepreneurship comes from authors

with especially rich experience in this field of research.
Beatrice Avolio and Mirjana Radovi-Markovi profile
women entrepreneurs and consider their motivations,
together with the obstacles and challenges they face
and often overcome.
The authors deal with how rural entrepreneurship, virtual

entrepreneurship, and project-based and home-based
businesses lend themselves to providing opportunities for
women. Their findings reveal that increased participation of
women in business leadership is imposing a new behavioural
style on businesses; and that particularly female kinds of
durability, persistence and intuition are producing business
advantage. This book clearly identifies success factors and
proposes guidelines for the benefit of female entrepreneurs,
female-led businesses, and businesses in general.

John A. Lanier
Measuring, Modelling and

Commerce Across Borders, Finance

Haim Y. Bleikh and Warren L. Young
Alexander R. Malaket
In Time Series Analysis and Adjustment the authors explain

how the last four decades have brought dramatic changes
in the way researchers analyze economic and financial data
on behalf of economic and financial institutions and to
provide statistics. An understanding of time series and the
application and knowledge of related time series adjustment
procedures is essential in areas such as risk management,
business cycle analysis, and forecasting. The case studies in
this book demonstrate that time series adjustment methods
can be efficaciously applied and utilized, for both analysis
and forecasting, but they must be used in the context of
reasoned statistical and economic judgment this is the
first known published study to really deal with this issue
of context.
This is an essential source of reference for anyone involved

in international trade and using or seeking to use short-term
financing. Alexander Malaket not only provides a thorough and
logical insight into how trade and supply chain finance can
work for companies today, but also does this through an easy
and interesting read. This is a book long overdue, and Malaket
has nailed it for users and practitioners alike.
John has taken stock of the lessons learned in his many

years of real world experience and distilled them into a
useful and pragmatic synthesis in this book. It is refreshing
to see the attention paid to many topics often overlooked
and underappreciated as value levers in investing.
Ric Andersen, Milestone Partners, USA
Seen as the job creating engine within the US economy,
small business is often a prime target market for private
equity investment. Indeed, private equity backs over six of
each 100 private sector jobs. Both the small businesses in
which private equity firms invest, and the private equity
firms making the investments, face inter- and intra-company
fiduciary leadership challenges while implementing
formulated strategy.
The architecture of each private equity firm portfolio
company relationship must be uniquely crafted to
capitalize on projected ROI that is memorialized in the
investment thesis. Given the leveraged capital structure of
portfolio companies, the cost of a misstep is problematic. In
Value-creation in Middle Market Private Equity, John A. Lanier
examines relationships between middle market private equity
firms and their portfolio companies.

Solvency II
Stakeholder Communications and Change
SECOND EDITION
Sheikh F. Rahman, Central Queensland University, Australia
Gabrielle ODonovan
here is the main virtue of the book: it is not only providing
a fair summary of what Solvency II is all about, but guides
the reader through the complex task of change-management,
as well as developing communication strategy and plans
to address, impress and inform all stakeholders: the staff,
the customers, the shareholders, the delivery partners,
the supervisors, etc. And this is done in a clear and well
understandable style and language, thus the book can
be an invaluable help for all those who are involved in
the implementation of Solvency II rules into the everyday
practice. Albert Einstein wrote once aptly: you have to learn
the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than
anyone else. ODonovans book helps the reader learn the
necessary rules; moreover it even inspires to apply them.
The only thing where the reader is left on its own: to play
the learned stuff better than anyone else.
Mr Elemer Tertak, European Commission, Principal Advisor,
Director General Internal Market and Services
As the deadline for Solvency II approaches, affected entities
will find implementing the required policies into everyday
practices becomes a major focus. The second edition of
Solvency II: Stakeholder Communications and Change,
explains how to prepare for and negate the associated risks.

In Conceptions of Professionalism, the authors present the

results of research into understanding what professionalism
means to those individuals who are CERTIFIED FINANCIAL
PLANNER professionals and how they conceive of acting
professionally. Financial planning is establishing itself as a
relatively new profession and an understanding of how its
members experience professionalism provides insights that
will help those responsible across the international financial
planning community to establish accurate and meaningful
professional standards for CFPs.
Jonathan Bell, Editor in Chief,

Trade and Export Finance, London, UK
Financing Trade and International Supply Chains takes the
mystery out of trade and supply chain finance. The book
suggests that every trade or supply chain finance solution
no matter how elaborate addresses some combination
of four elements: facilitation of secure and timely payment,
effective mitigation of risk, provision of financing and
liquidity, and facilitation of transactional and financial
information flow.
The book includes observations on the effective use of
traditional mechanisms such as Documentary Letters of
Credit, plus an overview of emerging supply chain finance
solutions critical to the financing of strategic suppliers and
other members of complex supply chain ecosystems. The
important role of export credit agencies and international
financial institutions is explored, and innovations such
as the Bank Payment Obligation are addressed in detail.
This valuable resource balances concept with practical
insight and can help protect the financial interests of
companies pursuing opportunity in international markets.

Cyber Security
An Introduction for Non-Technical Managers
Jeremy Swinfen Green
Jeremy Swinfen Green has succeeded in creating a
cybersecurity book that is both well written and uses
the language of business management. This is just the
right reference for managers who need to understand key
cybersecurity concepts and threats and how they can
manage the risks.
Paul Dorey, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK
Cyber security is often thought to be the domain of specialist
IT professionals, however cyber risks are found across
and within organisations. Unfortunately, many managers
outside IT feel they are ill-equipped to deal with these risks
and the use of jargon makes the subject especially hard to
understand. For this reason cyber threats are often worse
than they really need to be.
The reality is that the threat from cyber risks is constantly
growing, meaning non-technical managers need to
understand and manage these threats as best they can. As
well as offering practical advice, the author guides readers
through the processes that will enable them to manage and
mitigate such threats thereby offering the best protection for
their organisations.

Reviews of Previous Editions:

In 15 years I have read hundreds of security books. Seldom
have I read a book with such ambition and scope, impeccable
sources, and grasp of whats possible and practical and
whats not in the business of security management. Any
serious security managers wanting to make things happen in
their workplaces should open this book.
Mark Rowe, Editor, Professional Security Magazine
Security Culture starts from the premise that, even with good
technical tools and security processes, an organization is
still vulnerable without a strong culture and a resilient set of
behaviours in relation to people risk.
Hilary Walton combines her research and her unique work
portfolio to provide proven security culture strategies with
practical advice on their implementation. And she does
so across the board: from management buy-in, employee
development and motivation, right through to effective
metrics for security culture activities.
The book draws together all the best ideas on how you can
embed security in the culture of your organization, including
a blend of psychology, risk and security, to offer a security
culture interventions toolkit from which you can pick and
choose as you design your security culture programme
whether in private or public settings.

Occupational Risk Control

Predicting and Preventing the Unwanted
Derek Viner
Derek Viners name is synonymous with the study and
practice of engineering approaches to health and safety. In this
highly readable and instructive book he draws on his enviable
wealth of experience, taking the reader on a journey from the
foundations of accident theory through the measurement,
control and management of risk using practical, down-to-earth
examples to de-mystify and simplify the subject and dispel
common misconceptions.
Steve Cowley, SafeWork Solutions
In Occupational Risk Control you will find Derek Viners
wealth of experience used to its fullest. He presents a
coherent and scientific theoretical basis for, and a practical
understanding of, the prediction and management of
accidents in the industrial and commercial worlds.
The author spans ideas formed between the industrial
revolution and the present day, but focuses on more recent
theoretical developments specifically in defence and petrochemical systems. He argues that the consequences of the
absence of a holistic approach is the tendency for regulators
to form (misinformed) theory on which to base legislation
and the prevalence of commercial systems leading to
disparate efforts by different industries. The net effect
of this is seen in disasters of the magnitude of the Gulf
of Mexico explosion and oil spill.

If only a single book on business risk management could

be purchased, this would be the one to buy.
This is the first book to tackle this important, but

controversial topic in depth with its many nuances.
The authors take the reader into what for many will be the
unfamiliar territory of corporate appraisals and bonuses to
uncover its complexity, its principles and its contentiousness.
Their case studies handily illustrate the positive and negative
aspects derived from their theoretical analyses. It is a timely
book given the findings of recent disaster investigations
implicating unsuitable incentive schemes.

Andrew Hale, Professor Emeritus,

Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands
Financial incentives have long been used to try to

influence professional values and practices. Recent events
including the global financial crisis and the BP Texas City
refinery disaster have been linked to such incentives, with
commentators calling for a critical look at these systems
given the catastrophic outcomes. Risky Rewards engages
with this debate, particularly in the context of the present and
potential role of incentives to manage major accident risk in
hazardous industries.

SHORT GUIDES TO BUSINESS RISK

Risk is a far more complex and demanding issue than it was ten years ago. Risk managers may have expertise in the general aspects of risk management and in the specifics that relate directly
to their business, but they are much less likely to understand other more specialist risks. Equally, Company Directors may find themselves falling down in their duty to manage risk because they
dont have enough knowledge to be able to talk to their risk team, in a sensible way.
The Short Guides to Risk are not going to make either of these groups experts in the subject, but will give them plenty to get started and in a format and an extent (circa 150-250 pages)
that is readily digested.
A Short Guide to Climate

Change Risk
Nigel Arnell
Covering the nature, science, politics, assessment and
management of climate change risks, this book is aimed
at those who need to know about it as a strategic and
operational risk.
CIR (Continuity, Insurance & Risk) magazine
Climate change poses a risk to business operations and
to markets, but at the same time it can bring opportunities
for some businesses. With chapters on the nature, science
and politics of climate change, on the assessment and
management of climate change risks, and recommendations
for incorporating climate change risks into a Company Risk
Management System, this concise guide serves the needs
of business students and practitioners across a wide range
of sectors, public and private.

I have welcomed their previous title Proactive Law for
Managers and now I am professionally very happy with the
new book this successful duo has been able to compose. What
I like most is the instrumental, proactive approach to business
legal matters; in their own words: Contracts are not made
for the legal department or future litigation; they are made for
business, in order to reach business objectives (introductory
chapter). It is this managerial way of handling the law that is
so needed in practice and yet so seldom seen in literature.

Team Leadership in High-Hazard
Environments

Risk Governance Beyond Boundaries
Performance, Safety and Risk Management

Strategies for Operational Teams
Vicky Kubitscheck
A Governance, Risk and Compliance

Framework
Randy E. Cadieux
I think Randy Cadieuxs book is a must for any leader with
high-velocity teams that respond to important conditions. The
book reads like a carefully constructed cookbook that helps
you prepare your response teams for amazing performance.
Todd Conklin, Los Alamos National Laboratory, USA
Safety performance is a complicated issue, particularly
in high-hazard environments where time and other
constraints, as well as impacts, can be exaggerated. From
an organizational and business perspective, safety and
production/performance are often seen as competing
goals. Team Leadership in High-Hazard Environments
recognizes these difficulties and constraints and proposes
an approach to safety leadership in which safety and
organizational performance are inextricably linked; one
that addresses safety from both the systems and human
factors perspectives. This is an important book that draws
on techniques and models developed from crew resource
management, human factors, risk management as well
as more traditional HR management disciplines.

Effective assurance is undoubtedly the watch word for

every non-executive director today. Based on my 10 years of
experience in the boardroom, I believe that this book provides
an invaluable and insightful examination of assurance and
risk oversight and how these meet the needs of the board.
I recommend this book to both executive and non-executive
board members seeking to optimise the value of governance
by ensuring an integrated approach to risk and internal
control.
Davida Marston, experienced Non-Executive Director and
Audit Chair for PLCs and non-UK listed companies
Much has been written about assurance, but mainly by
those who provide it the professionals such as internal
auditors, accountants and information security technologists
for the purpose of advancing their professional practices.
Less is written for or by those in governance who need it for
the effective discharge of their responsibilities. It is time to
rethink assurance beyond its usual functional boundaries, to
focus on what matters to the business and how discussions
in the board room can be better supported by more joined
up assurance. This book will provide practical guidance for
those who need that support and for others providing it.

Managerial Fraud
The Field Guide to

Understanding Human Error
Executive Impression Management,

Beyond Red Flags
THIRD EDITION
Sidney Dekker
When things go wrong in organisations, one thing is almost
always found in the post-mortem: human error (in various
guises). But one only needs to scratch the surface of system
failures to understand that things are not so straightforward.
What seems to make sense as a causal catch-all for our
everyday slips and blunders snaps when stretched; it fails to
explain the context and complexity of our work and systems.
There is a better way. In this important book, Sidney Dekker
conveys a practical approach for life after human error. It
is both humanistic and systemic; it treats people holistically
and non-judgementally, while considering system conditions
and dynamics in context. If you are prepared to suspend your
own preconceptions and reactions to failure this book will
repay you with a practical, highly readable and deeply humane
approach to dealing with failure.

Cyber Security Management places security management

in a holistic context and outlines how the strategic
marketing approach can be used to underpin cyber
security in partnership arrangements. The book is unique
because it integrates material that is of a highly specialized
nature but which can be interpreted by those with a nonspecialist background. Those with a limited knowledge
of cyber security will be able to develop a comprehensive
understanding of the subject and will be guided into devising
and implementing relevant policy, systems and procedures
that make the organization better able to withstand the
increasingly sophisticated forms of cyber attack.

Building Anti-Fragile
Organisations
Risk, Opportunity and Governance
in a Turbulent World
Tony Bendell
Tony Bendall has comprehensively researched and
analysed the concept of anti-fragility and its implications for
organisations and their people. The result is an engaging and
timely tour de force which should be required reading for all
business leaders as well as students embarking on a career in
the corporate world.
Stuart Ansell, BPP Business School, UK
In Managerial Fraud, Dr Terry Sheridan reports the findings

of her study of fraudulent executives. Her work illuminates
the particular methods fraudsters employ to appear more
authentic than the average person and reveals two types of
executive fraudster with very different behaviours. All this
helps to explain why the current Red Flag approach fails
to identify potential fraudsters and instead tends to focus
on Red Flag executives who are negative characters, but
non-fraudulent.
Better understanding of what Dr Sheridan has uncovered
might result in organisations being able to reduce
their exposure to fraud perpetrated by their own senior
management.

Every day human organisations fail. Building Anti-Fragile

Organisations explores a powerful alternative framework
for risk in design and management of human systems.
Anti-Fragile organisations, like biological systems, being
more than robust actually improve their resilience through
being stressed.
In the book, Professor Bendell explains how its application
in development and management of organisations, services
and products, allows us to identify the characteristics that
will not only mitigate against the realisation of hazards,
but enable growth in protection, strength and anti-fragility
over time.
The book identifies characteristics relevant to survival in
a turbulent world, and how our approaches to risk and
governance must change to create and manage anti-fragile
organisations. It gives readers the opportunity to make
sense of applying the concepts within their own worlds.

Obstructive Marketing
Restricting Distribution of Products and
Services in the Age of Asymmetric Warfare
Maitland Hyslop
In Obstructive Marketing, Maitland Hyslop deals with a very
negative kind of activity which embraces activities, legal or
otherwise, designed to prevent or restrict the distribution
of a product or service, temporarily or permanently, against
the wishes of the product manufacturer, service provider or
customer.
When the author defined this phenomenon as Obstructive
Marketing and started to research it more than a decade ago,
it was seen as a valid concept that was perhaps ahead of its
time. The World has moved on and Obstructive Marketing
can now be seen as the business equivalent of asymmetric
warfare.
This book explains what Obstructive Marketing is and why
it is not called anti-marketing. It explains who practises
Obstructive Marketing, where, when and how; and why
businesses are particularly vulnerable to Obstructive
Marketing attack when entering new markets and engaging
in change and innovation.

Evgueni Ivantsov
A brilliant review of the financial crash and the problems

associated with calculating actual risk exposure in the
financial markets. Dr Ivantsov applies supreme logic and
intellectual acumen when dissecting the topics of bank
capital and risk management, and the result is incisive.
Everyone with an interest in the events of 20072009, from
students to CEOs to regulators, should read this clear,
accessible and coherent account of the causes of the crash
and its accompanying critique of the legislators response
that was Basel III. Unlike most authors on this subject, Dr
Ivantsov also presents his recommended policy response,
which is excellent. An absolute classic and an exceptional
and worthy addition to the finance literature.

Tim Marsh
The missing factor for most senior managers is not the desire
to do something to improve health and safety, rather it is a
lack of knowledge of what they practically need to do to make
a difference. Talking Safety for most people is the missing
piece of the jigsaw, the piece that brings realisation and helps
them to get it. Key to this success is the light hearted and
yet impactful style of the book which makes the techniques
which have been developed through hard won experience
immediately accessible.

This excellent book comes at a time when cyber security is
paramount in the concerns of all organisations that handle

technical threat mitigation is not enough. What is required is a

to do this though changing the way we organise ourselves

everyone with an interest in safeguarding their business

It should never happen again, but too many recommendations

just make the situation worse. Every private and public sector
executive needs to read this book so they understand how
their decisions and actions can solve some problems whilst
inadvertently creating others.
The world of business in economically developed countries

generally does not lack for policy, regulation and law. However,
businesses around the world often avoid or ignore their own
rules if they clash with economic objectives or may disrupt
a current business practice long in place. ...Alan Warings
coverage of risk management is a text book for all students
of security and compliance. It concerns the types of risk
encountered in business and the severe consequences that
can occur if ignored. I was captured by Alans many examples
of corporate missteps and the significant effort needed to
reverse the damages from bad decisions. The book is a must
for corporate executives as well as it lays out the process of
risk management decision making. Alan makes it very clear
to all readers that you are only as good as your reputation.

PSYCHOLOGICAL AND BEHAVIOURAL ASPECTS OF RISK

Series Editors: Cary L. Cooper and Ronald J. Burke
Risk management is an ongoing concern for modern organizations in terms of their finance, their people, their assets, their projects and their reputation. The majority of the processes and
systems adopted are either very financially oriented or fundamentally mechanistic; often better suited to codifying and recording risk, rather than understanding and working with it. Risk is
fundamentally a human construct; how we perceive and manage it is dictated by our attitude, behaviour and the environment or culture within which we work. Organizations that seek to
mitigate, manage, transfer or exploit risk need to understand the psychological factors that dictate the response and behaviours of their employees, their high-flyers, their customers and their
stakeholders.
This series, edited by two of the most influential writers and researchers on organizational behaviour and human psychology explores the psychological and behavioural aspects of risk; the
factors that: define our attitudes and response to risk; are important in understanding and managing risk managers; dictate risky behaviour in individuals at all levels.

Mental Illness in the Workplace

Psychological Disability Management
Henry G. Harder, Shannon Wagner, and Josh Rash
Mental Illness in the Workplace fills a large void in the
existing literature by defining common psychological health
conditions and broadening the readers understanding of how
mental health conditions impact in the workplace. It explores
current evidence, diagnostic challenges and treatment
complexities. The authors articulate and present solid and
well-thought-out solutions for prevention and management.
Disability Management professionals will benefit greatly
from this resource.
Liz R. Scott, Principal/CEO of Organizational Solutions,
Canada
The extent of mental health concerns in the workforce is
becoming increasingly apparent. Stress, depression, anxiety,
workplace bullying and other mental health issues are
costing businesses billions every year in lost productivity,
poor treatments and employee retention. The authors of
Mental Illness in the Workplace provide a practical guide to
identifying, understanding, treating and preventing individual
and organizational mental health issues, drawing on
empirical evidence from North America, the United Kingdom,
Australia and New Zealand. They illustrate how organizations
can save money and improve the health and well-being
of their employees by using a psychological disability
management approach in the treatment and accommodation
of mental health issues. This book will meet the needs of
students and practitioners in human resources, psychology
and business management.

Creating Healthy Workplaces

Stress Reduction, Improved Well-being,

The Organizations Role in Achieving

Individual and Organizational Health
Edited by Caroline Biron, Ronald J. Burke

and Cary L. Cooper
Edited by Ronald J. Burke and Cary L. Cooper
Creating Healthy Workplaces provides a comprehensive

overview of interventions that will be of use to both the
researcher and practitioner. While the book is written in the
language of the academic, it represents a valuable resource
for anyone charged with creating healthy and psychologically
safe workplaces, regardless of disciplinary background or job
role. Given it is one of the very few good books Ive read
on intervention for healthy work, I fully recommend it to
all and sundry!

Tim Bentley, director, NZ Work Research Institute

and AUT Future of Work Programme
Those working in the field of occupational stress have

received criticism that too much emphasis has been placed
on negative issues and that positive initiatives have been
largely ignored. This book delves into both the positive and
the stress fields and compares the types of interventions
each entail. Some of the interventions described target
individuals and their attitudes and behaviours, others
target workplace relationships, work units and the wider
organization. Outcomes such as reduced occurrences of
smoking, obesity, depression, elevated blood pressure,
accidents and workplace injuries, absence and staff turnover
are reported. The factors associated with the success of
these interventions are identified and advice is given as to
how you might proceed to develop worksite interventions
of your own.

Human Frailties
Wrong Choices on the Drive to Success
Edited by Ronald J. Burke, Suzy Fox and Cary L. Cooper
This is a valuable and unique book which reflects a new trend:
namely concentrating on the dark side of work. Over half the
well written and up-to-date chapters examine the causes and
consequences of dark people and dark work situations that
reflect the books subtitle. I very much enjoyed reading many
of the chapters in a book that should be of use not only to
students and researchers but managers struggling with
the forces of darkness in their workplace.

Rebalancing Public Partnership

Innovative Practice Between Government
and Non-Profits from Around the World
Edited by John Brothers
The relationship between governments and non-profits is
built on the shifting sands of political and social discourse,
yet, making this relationship work is critical in supporting
and sustaining resilient communities. This book provides a
rare and invaluable international analysis of this important
relationship and should be compulsory reading for
government and non-profit leaders.
David Crosbie, Chief Executive Officer of the
Community Council for Australia
Based on his original research, John Brothers brings
together prominent thought leaders from the United States
and around the world by exploring the prevailing attitudes
and perceptions of the non-profit sector towards government
and vice versa and provides advice and direction to help both
sides of the equation towards effective collaborative working.
Both sides of this emerging partnership need fast-track
education on each others capabilities, constraints and
working practice. John Brothers contributors provide some
very valuable perspectives and insights that should inform
and direct this process.

Inspired by a three year research project involving leading
European universities, this book explores the relationship
between copyright and intellectual property, creativity and
innovation, and cultural heritage institutions. Its contributors
are scholars from both the humanities and the social
sciences from cultural studies to law as well as cultural

Museum Space
Where Architecture Meets Museology
Kali Tzortzi
The book is an excellent and timely contribution to an
important critical debate in museum studies and architecture:
how to conceptualise and analyse the architectural
organization of display spaces in museums and the movement
of visitors within them. Tzortzis exploration of the syntactic
analysis of museum space stands as the most accessible and
reader-friendly account of this important method. This book is
required reading for anyone interested in understanding and
analyzing museum space.
Christopher Whitehead, Newcastle University, UK
How does the architecture of museums affect our experience
as visitors? This book proposes that by seeing space as
common ground between architecture and museology,
and so between the museum building and its display, we
can illuminate the individuality of each museum and the
distinctive experience it offers. The book starts with an
overview of the history of museum buildings and display
strategies. It then focuses on specific museums as in-depth
case studies, and uses methods of spatial analysis to look at
the key design choices available to architects and curators,
and their effects on visitors behaviour. Theoretically
grounded, methodologically original, and richly illustrated,
this book will equip students, researchers and professionals
in the fields of architecture, museum studies, curating,
exhibition design, and cultural studies, with a guide for
studying museums and a theoretical framework for their
interpretation.

Russell Staiff
This is a rich and vividly articulated evocation of the
complex relationship we have with the past, its objects and
its intangibles, the things and non-things that we call heritage.
Staiff has achieved more than a simple account of interpretation
could ever do. With his very individual perspective he has
envisioned the very nature of our encounters, engagements and
subjective experiences, as individuals, bodies and collectivities.
Can heritage interpretation ever be understood in the same
way again? Not after this!
Steve Watson, York St John University, UK
Staiff suggests that the dialogue between visitors and
heritage places has been too focused on learning outcomes,
and so heritage interpretation has become dominated by
psychology and educational theory, and over-reliant on
outdated thinking. Using his background as an art historian
and experience teaching heritage and tourism courses,
Russell Staiff weaves personal observation with theory in
an engaging and lively way. He recognizes that the digital
revolution has changed forever the way that people interact
with their environment and that a new approach is needed

Unified Systems and New Governance
in Cultural Life
Edited by Biljana Mickov and James Doyle
In Sustaining Cultural Development, Biljana Mickov and
James Doyle argue that effective programmes to promote
greater participation in cultural life require substantial
investment in research and strategic planning. Using studies
from contributors throughout Europe, they look at ways to
promote cultural life as the centre of the broader sustainable
development of society. These studies illustrate how
combining cultural identity, cultural diversity and creativity
with increased participation of citizens in cultural life
improves harmonized cultural development and promotes
democracy. They indicate a shift from traditional governance
of the cultural sector to a new, more horizontal, approach
that links cultural workers at different levels in different
sectors and different locations.

The Roles of Organisation

The Handbook of Dealing

Temporary Agency Work

and Globalisation
Annamaria Garden
Edited by Anne-Marie Quigg
Beyond Flexibility and Inequality
Dr Garden brings her extensive consulting experience

and in-depth knowledge of the field to identify key roles in
organisational development. Her book is a brilliant guide to
making change happen and uses self-assessments, exercises
and a wide range of practical references. It is truly inspirational
and an essential read for all leaders.
This is an excellent resource in the study of workplace

bullying. What sets this book apart is the wide range of
perspectives that have been taken, identifying the multifaceted
nature of the subject. The authors show passion and rigour in
their work, and provide a unique insight into this important
and complex area.
Mark Horan, Huddersfield University, UK
Ralph Lewis, Programme Director,

London Business School, UK
The Roles of Organisation Development introduces a

radically new and original framework to explain organisation
development work and how it is achieved. Dr Garden does
not describe the roles typically thought of in Organisation
Development or Management literature. Instead, she
describes them in terms of: the Seer, Translator, Cultivator,
Catalyst, Navigator, Teacher, and Guardian. These are
presented primarily for OD people, but strategy and
marketing consultants, academics as well as managers
doing OD work will find this framework extremely useful.
Dr Annamaria Garden was trained in her PhD from MIT by
two of the founding fathers of OD: Professor Ed Schein and
Professor Dick Beckhard. The book refers, in places, to their
teaching and interaction.

By taking temporary labour placement as a strategic lens of

analysis, the contributors shed new light on the intersections
between changes in the macro political economy, industrial
reconfigurations and regulatory adjustments, and individual
experiences and perceptions. Well written and exceptionally

and neoliberalism.
Xiang Biao, University of Oxford, UK
This edited collection provides a comprehensive overview
of TAW, in an international context, revealing how the
temporary agency work (TAW) industry is intertwined with
the changing relationship between the state, corporations
and labour unions at the institutional-structural level, and
also the perceptions and experiences of ordinary workers
in everyday practice. By combining global and local forces,
macro and micro levels of analysis, and theoretical and

in Knowledge-Intensive Environments
Edited by Dariusz Jemielniak
It focuses on the ways knowledge workers define, organize
and make sense of their workplace. Moreover, it presents
studies from different cultural contexts, and this international
perspective is still insufficiently researched and described. In
my opinion this book is critical reading for anyone who wants
to understand the nature, and multidimensional character
of knowledge work.
Beata Glinka, The University of Warsaw, Poland
In The Laws of the Knowledge Workplace, Dr Jemielniak
has collected research-based chapters providing deep,
interdisciplinary insight into knowledge professions,
addressing issues of professional identity, emotion, power
and authority, trust and indoctrination, and management
behaviour. The accounts and studies in this book come
from management, organization studies, sociology, and
anthropology of work perspectives and are fully international
in scope. They highlight the scale of the serious changes
in occupational roles and to the meaning of work that is
taking place in knowledge-intensive environments and
give a pointer to what might constitute good and bad
management practice in knowledge-intensive companies.

Towards Organizational Fitness
A Field Guide for

Organisation Development
Deception in Selection
A Guide to Diagnosis and Treatment

Gerry Randell and John Toplis
Taking Theory into Practice
Max A. Eggert
A healthy organisation is a lot like a well-tuned human

body, say two of the UKs most celebrated thinkers on the
topic. Though the analogy is a little over-deployed, Towards
Organizational Fitness does feel like a world-leading medical
manual for ailing businesses. Randell and Toplis deliberately
avoided writing a textbook, and this accessible text covers
diagnosing, understanding and fixing organisational flaws
in an intelligent, informed manner. You sense it will become
a classic in its field, even if it is notable how simple the fixes
turn out to be: a few bad apples or one localised problem
can send an entire company over the edge.
Edited by Ed Griffin, Mike Alsop, Martin Saville

and Grahame Smith
A Field Guide for Organisation Development offers a
variety of perspectives and experiences from researchers
and practitioners on Organisation Development, a concept
that many organisations find difficult to tackle. From
organisational health and planning and managing complex
change, through to working with external consultants and
using data wisely, the comprehensive guide covers issues that
continue to challenge organisations of all shapes and sizes.
HR Magazine
People Management
Towards Organizational Fitness is about the people who work
in organizations and addresses two main issues: firstly, how
to investigate and manage problems involving people at
work; secondly, how to assess and develop the capability
and fitness of an organization.
The message is clear; organizations should not proceed
to change any of their policies, procedures, processes or
practices until a systematic thorough diagnosis of the root
cause underpinning the need to change has taken place.
The book provides managers with a conceptual and practical
guide for achieving this.

A Guide to Managing Workplace Relations
A Global Business Model for Virtual

Team Collaboration
Cassandra J. Smith
Many projects fail in the virtual environment because
project managers rely on the assumptions and
communication strategies they use in the face-to-face
environment. Smiths Virtual Team Global Business Model
makes a significant contribution to working and learning
at a distance because she provides a concrete model that
helps managers examine their assumptions and tailor their
communication practices to work effectively at a distance.

Howard R. Jacobs, School of Education,

Capella University, USA
Organizations are implementing virtual teams using web

technologies as a cost-effective measure for training and
project development. In Working at a Distance, Cassandra
Smith provides a detailed, comprehensible virtual team
business model for managers, professionals, teachers
or students involved globally with such initiatives.

Greg Clydesdale
Interviewees and the Psychology of Deceit

Deception in Selection delves into its examination with both
broad perspective and focused inquiry. Long before coining
the Liars Index concept, I became progressively alert to the
degree of deception imbedded in the process of employment
selection. In a career spanning both corporate and consulting
selection experiences, I have stumbled enough along the way
that I have applied increasing discipline to the process, both in
my own work and that of my clients. The often undetected risk
is in missing a candidates self-deceptionwhere an honest
falsehood results from ones inaccurate sense of who they
truly are. Digging into this book can help both screener
and candidate in keeping each other honest.

Beyond Goals
Effective Strategies for Coaching
and Mentoring
Edited by Susan David, David Clutterbuck,
and David Megginson
What a relief. Finally an academically sound and engrossing
recognition that goals in coaching are simultaneously central
and irrelevant. Demonstrating lifes elegant non-linearity, the
authors ask us to question current coaching lore and to build
an up-to-date understanding of the real nature of goals in
coaching and mentoring. A mind-opening feast.
Nancy Kline, Founding President, Time To Think
Humans are weird! They can be emotional, irrational and

often unpredictable, yet as their manager, it is your job to
get the best out of them. In fact they are often the key to your
success. Sadly, humans do not come with an instruction
manual which lists their technical specifications.
The presence of goals in coaching and mentoring programs

has gone largely unquestioned, yet evidence is growing that
the standard prescription of SMART, challenging goals is not
always appropriate and even potentially dangerous in the
context of a complex and rapidly changing world.
In Human Nature, Greg Clydesdale argues that even where

human nature is addressed at a conceptual level; the link
between theory and what actually happens in the workplace
is usually weak and often fails to recognize that social ability
is probably the defining aspect. Students are expected to
understand the concepts but are left to themselves to grasp
the workplace implications. It is an intense focus on human
nature and the link between a conceptual understanding of
it and what actually happens in the workplace that makes
this book so valuable.
Beyond Goals advances standard goal-setting theory by

bringing together cutting-edge perspectives from leaders in
coaching and mentoring. From psychology to neuroscience,
from chaos theory to social network theory, the contributors
offer diverse and compelling insights into both the
advantages and limitations of goal pursuit. The result
is a more nuanced understanding of goals.

Collaborating for Results

Silo Working and Relationships that Work
David Ian Willcock
This is a thoughtful and very perceptive examination of
our natural tendency to want to work within silos and the
problems this creates for businesses, small and large. The
strategies suggested for encouraging collaboration both
within and across different organisations are practical,
sensible and easily implemented. They should be widely
and universally adopted.

THIRD EDITION
Exploring Internal Communication is the essential primer

for both students and practitioners keen to understand the
roots and dynamics of internal communication. The breadth of
research is impressive, as is the effort made to provide a clear,
coherent line of sight from theory to practice. For all the rigour,
it remains an accessible read with a strong narrative appeal.
Steve Doswell, Chief Executive,
Institute of Internal Communication, UK
This third edition of Exploring Internal Communication

includes new chapters on the history of internal
communication, the evolution of employee engagement,
the current state of practice, change communication,
storytelling, research and measurement, an internal
communication measurement dashboard, intranet
management, and internal social media.
It argues that internal communication practice is about
keeping employees informed and at the same time giving
them a voice that is treated seriously.
The book is both a companion for internal communication
courses and an exploration of key concepts for a strategic
approach to practice that underpins employee engagement.

Diversity and Culture in Business
Man-Made
Why So Few Women Are in Positions
of Power
Eva Tutchell and John Edmonds
Man Made gives a graphic, very realistic and convincing
account of the injustices that women still endure in our society.
The information is well researched, revealing and, often, frankly
breathtaking. Anyone concerned about equality and civil rights
should study the radical proposals set out clearly in this very
readable and truly illuminating call to action.
Baroness Kinnock, former Foreign Office Minister and MEP
Eva Tutchell and John Edmonds Man-Made looks at women
in business, government and not-for-profit organizations to
explore the reasons behind and the solutions to the gross
underrepresentation of women in leadership positions. Along
the way, the authors look at the value of work for women and
vice versa; how women are seen and how they are expected
to behave; the impact of prejudice and discrimination;
how some women have succeeded against the odds.
The text draws on the authors interviews with over 100
successful UK and international business women from
across sectors, academic research, and the authors own
experience to offer a rigorous and convincing analysis,
along with a pragmatic set of recommendations for change.

Many publishing models have emerged over the last 10 years,

and technology has made the mechanics of publishing in
general, and web publishing in particular, easier. As a result,
the role of the professional publisher is being challenged,
and issues of quality and trust are now competing with
easy access to information. Publishing, in all its forms, can
be viewed as a conspicuous bellwether for any business
that must make strategic and tactical adjustments quickly
in order to innovate and grow and Ross applies principles
from both consumer and educational publishing to explore
publishings ongoing sea change and its implications for
other industries.
Lots of initiatives are launched but many fail to deliver any

discernible business outcome and yet clients are screaming
out for better ways of doing business. This practical book
filled with insights, case studies and useful tools offers a
blueprint for the creation of a sustainable innovation system.

Management Practice
and Creative Destruction
Existential Skills for Inquiring Managers,
Researchers and Educators
Steven Segal
Philosophy still matters for management and Steven Segals
book makes this point clear. Philosophy provides an informed,
reflective, and intelligent way to interrogate, evaluate and
change ones practices. As you read this book just let it disrupt
you; let it guide you to live philosophically as a practically
wise manager, let it open you to understand and welcome your
own anxieties about your practice. Wise practice starts with
understanding the difficult things in life rather than shying
away from them. We all need help and guidance to do this
and Segal has much to offer in this regard.
David Rooney, Macquarie University, Australia
In Management Practice and Creative Destruction, Steven
Segal changes our understanding both of management and
research through his exploration of the concept of Creative
Destruction. He explains how progress and development
can also have negative and destructive effects within the
same environment, and that in order to embrace new ways
of doing things it is necessary to let go of the old. This is
both frightening and exciting.
The book finds new ways of looking at management and
provides a framework for managers, management educators,
theorists and researchers to turn moments of creative
disruption into opportunities for curios inquiry into their
practices. It fully explores a mode of inquiry that is only
beginning to emerge in management research and theory.

SECOND EDITION
Edited by Loyita Worley and Sarah Spells
Mauri Laukkanen and Mingde Wang
Acclaim for the first edition:-
This book presents in a highly accessible yet scholarly form,

an introduction to the theory and practice of comparative
(cognitive) causal mapping (CCM), centred on the authors
CMAP3 software. Although the authors main focus is on
their own particular approach, there are many useful insights
and lessons for all users of CCM techniques, novices and
experienced users alike.
Gerard P. Hodgkinson, University of Warwick, UK
The cognitive movement has proven robust, with CCM
methods and research serving not only scientific, typically
explorative objectives, but also pragmatic purposes such as
problem solving and decision support, systems planning and
organizational interventions.
Comparative Causal Mapping is an essential introduction
to causal (cognitive) mapping exploring the different
interpretations and motives for using them, the technical
aspect of using CMAP3 (a thoroughly revised version of
an original 1998 CCM-CMAP3 guide) in different research
situations, and typical cases of CM/CCM-research.
The book will appeal to both academic and professional
audiences, in particular to doctoral students and experienced
researchers looking for new topics and method approaches,
but also to practitioners in fields such as management
training and knowledge management.

Creating the Next Wave

Anne Marie McEwan
It is more possible than ever to influence and shape our
working environments, our experience of work and each
other. Business leaders who set the conditions and create
engaging, meaningful work through organisational design
and use of the knowledge and creative potential of their
workforces are engaging in smart working.
This book explains that smart working is more than
flexible and mobile working. It is flexibility and autonomy
how people work, not just where and when. It discusses
stimulating and harnessing collective intelligence within
and beyond organisational boundaries, and shows that smart
working is an outcome of designing organisational systems,
working environments and governance principles that are
good for business and for people.

Mapping Motivation
Unlocking the Key to Employee Energy
and Engagement
James Sale
What is motivation, and why do we need it? This book
tackles these questions as well as introducing core concepts
on how motivation relates to fundamental issues such as
performance and productivity, and its role in a number of
key management functions: team building, performance
appraisal, leadership development, engagement and change
management. Mapping Motivation is based on Motivational
Maps, created by James Sale and over ten years of research
into motivation and performance, and is therefore the
definitive book on motivation, its language and metrics.

The Social Domain in CSR

and Sustainability
A Critical Study of Social Responsibility
among Governments, Local Communities
and Corporations
Monica Thiel
In this fascinating book Monica Thiel discusses the lack of
social responsibility engagement with local communities by
corporations and governments. She also debates the absence
of reciprocal social responsibility and sporadic participation
from individuals and local communities themselves. Monica
sheds light specifically on the social domain within CSR and
Sustainability, an area that has received remarkably little
detailed coverage. With business, government and local
community leaders faced with challenging societal constraints
and consumer and public demands on a daily basis these
practical tools will put readers in a better position to manage
and develop CSR and sustainability strategies.

Reframing the Leadership

The Secrets of World-Class Performers
Creating a Culture of Collaboration
Harald S. Harung and Frederick Travis
Roger Hayes and Reginald Watts
Peak performance researchers, such as Dr Harald Harung

and Dr Fred Travis, have uncovered the key active ingredient
in peak performance - mind-brain development. They found
an integrated state of brain functioning to be a common
neurophysiological signature in the world-class athletes,
CEOs, and musicians they have studied.
This book is a must read because in our world problems have

acquired a wicked nature, they are complex. So leaders need
to bear in mind that solutions can only be found through
collaborative approaches.
David K. Williams, Forbes Magazine

This research-based book explains how, with higher
mind-brain development; knowledge and skills become
more useful, relationships more enriching, and actions
more effective. Using the experiences of top performers like
David Lynch, Jerry Seinfeld, Pel, Sir Roger Bannister, Billie
Jean King, Sir Alex Ferguson and Stephen Covey, the authors
show how people that excel have a much more orderly,
restfully alert and economic brain.

Using the Tools of Business to Create

Public Good
SECOND EDITION
Tom Levitt
Review of Previous Edition
Society is a complex web of mutually dependent stakeholders
who need each other to be successful and sustainable but
who are constantly having to re-evaluate their roles and
relationships as the world and our values change this book
explains the dilemmas currently being faced by these different
groups and seeks to explain a way forward so that all elements
of society can benefit.
Richard Ellis, Director of Corporate Social Responsibility,
Alliance Boots Group
This second edition of Welcome to GoodCo updates the
authors critically acclaimed analysis of how the tools of
business are being (and ought to be) used to help tackle the
great problems of both the planet and of local communities.
In exploring the increasingly politically relevant issue of
responsible capitalism and its variations he asks what
it means, where it came from, why politicians are so timid
around the issue and what exactly are the obstacles this
crusade will have to face.
Dr Roger Hayes and Dr Reginald Watts argue that the

interconnected and interdependent world requires leaders
to adopt a more holistic and inclusive approach.
The NEW normal must be navigated, negotiated, networked
and a narrative built around it. Aggressive individualism
is no longer a sustainable basis for companies needing to
deliver social and economic value, now, enterprises must
change to balance stakeholder expectations. The tool kit is
here, ready to be unpacked. The only question is whether
aspirant leaders are sensitive enough to read the signals and
develop the skills needed to create an essential collaborative
paradigm, which they must do if they wish to regain trust, fill
the leadership void and help reshape a sustainable future.

This is an important book in the ongoing discussion
of Tone at the Top. Beginning with a survey of top
management makes it stand out. Quotes from those seeking
to set the example and embed ethical leadership are telling,
as they understand the difficulties of achieving this. These are
well illustrated in the variety of case studies in Part 2. Whilst
Part 3 may cause readers to stop and think about their own
leadership style, and reflect. Anybody reading this engaging
book will learn from it, and taking heed will contribute to a
better informed, and behaved, leadership in companies, to
the benefit of wider society.
Philippa Foster Black CBE, Director,
Institute of Business Ethics
Many companies have been criticised for weaknesses in

their business ethics, and every year, new scandals and
ethical breaches hit the media. The problem of ethical lapses
however, is not confined to business and there are few
sectors of society that can claim the moral high ground.
In an increasingly transparent world, employee engagement
is founded on trust - of their boss, their department, their
whole enterprise.

Value stands as the ultimate trade-off between customers

and companies. The Value Trail by Dr Marc Sans develops a
disruptive new model of strategic analysis based around three
areas of value: Appreciation, Concentration and Predation. A
central issue for most managers is how to capture customer
insights and use them to deliver outstanding products

customer with a profitable business model. This book allows
the reader to understand how companies can set corporate
goals and leverage internal resources to deliver successful
value propositions, offering a comprehensive approach to

work is a marvelous resource thatalso includes detailed
and extensive footnotes, meticulous graphs, and practical

research into practical organizational applicationI would
recommend [this] book to those graduate-level students of
leadership who are seeking to gain a deeper understanding
of the ways in which macro and micro currents of chaos and
complexity are inviting continued organizational evolution and
adaptive leadership. This book will also be a strong support to

Leadership Meta-Competencies
Discovering Hidden Virtues
David N. Abdulai
Dr Fosters book The Open Organization highlights

the challenges many 21st century organizations face.
Demographics, an aging population, a shrinking workforce,
culture, technology, and a world economy are changing the
way we engage human capital. In The Open Organization,
Dr Foster offers solutions to these pressing challenges and
challenges leaders to rethink outdated organizational models.
Skip Prichard, President & CEO, OCLC, USA
Solutions for the future viability of any organization must be
scalable, agile, self-forming, and self-led. In this 21st century
era it is not difficult to find organizations that are getting it
right. But why should only a handful succeed when there are
boundless opportunities for all organizations to embrace a
new way of thinking and doing? Welcome to the era of the
Open Organization.
In The Open Organization Philip Foster explains how
organizational design requires an ability to share ideas,
knowledge, resources and skills across generational and
cultural boundaries in order to achieve the desired goals.
The book investigates the challenge to find a design that
will address generational, cultural, industry, and other
environmental factors in which the system must operate. It
explores the impact of motivation, culture, and generational
differences on the system defined as an Open Organization.

The meta-competencies discussed in this refreshing book are

timeless virtues of which effective leaders seem to possess:
Existential intelligence the ability to pose questions and
reflect on fundamental issues in ways that develop a
mature ability to interpret the world and better understand
other people;
Phronesis the ability to exercise sound judgement based
on skilful application of moral and political rationality;
Solitude a voluntary state achieved when an individual
has the ability to momentarily withdraw and be free of
external pressures and demands in order to concentrate
on desired mental-cognitive activities.
Trust building the ability to be credible, show trust in
and respect for other people and inspire trust
For anyone wishing to consider hidden or forgotten aspects
of leadership competence this book introduces the notion of
meta-competences and deals in detail with them.

Socio-Economic Perspectives of CSR

Edited by Samuel O. Idowu, Abubakar S. Kasum

This detailed study offers long awaited concise solutions on the

highly complex governance mechanism for immigrant families
worldwide starting their business venture on their own.
CampdenFB
Conservative estimates put the proportion of worldwide
business enterprises owned or managed by families at 65%.
The importance of family businesses to the economies of
both developed and developing countries cannot be ignored.
Governance in Immigrant Family Businesses is an important
book. It explores the relationship between ethnic cultural
influence in family businesses and its impact on corporate
governance, addressing the intertwined influences of
contractual, relational and cultural governance mechanisms
and sets out a comprehensive theoretical model which
clarifies the complexities involved in business planning,
family harmony, and ethnic cultural variables. The authors
specifically identify the implications for research, education,
and practice. Application of their model will be of value
to policy makers, consultants, business researchers and
educators.

Abdulai believes that, like Asian economies, Africa can
sustain its current growth and development by combining its
abundant natural resources with its human capital to attain
economic development. In African-Centred Management
Education he explains how this will require an African cadre
of well-trained managers at the helm of both private and
public sector institutions. Management education will play
a significant role but it cannot be effective by mimicking
the West in the programmes it delivers. It must come up
with innovative and relevant pedagogy that will address
the special challenges that the continent faces and deliver
an African-centred management education.

The Open Organization
People, Planet and Profit is an impressive achievement.

At a time when studies of CSR continue to be dominated
by northern hemisphere concepts and examples this book
extends the parameters for analysis and debate to areas that
hitherto have been neglected. As such People, Planet and
Profit should be essential reading for academics and policy
makers who are serious about contributing to CSR as a
global concept.
Stephen Vertigans, Head of School of Applied Social Studies
Robert Gordon University, UK
Many studies examine the relationship between good
governance within corporations and socially responsible
behaviour. In People, Planet and Profit the emphasis is
on what corporations take from and give back to their
stakeholders when apparently behaving in a corporately
responsible fashion.
Stakeholders, including employees, customers, host
communities, governments and NGOs have diverse interests
and expectations of CSR. This gives rise to questions about
what constitutes CSR and its benefits to todays recipients
and providers.
This book provides thoughtful answers to these questions
and assesses the outcomes of corporate activities both in
developed and developing countries and regions, in terms
of economic progress and social and political advancement.

A Systems Approach
Stefan Khl
From businesses, public administrations, universities and
schools, to hospitals, prisons, political parties, or the military,
peoples lives are inextricably bound up with organizations
from cradle to grave. Yet we receive little training in how
as members, customers, voters, or patients to deal with
them. In Organizations Stefan Khl asks and answers many
questions. What are these entities that wield such strong
influence in our society? What makes them tick? What are
our options for intervening, either from within or without?
This book explains how organizations function by examining
their three central features: their purposes or goals, their
hierarchies, and their memberships. The author presents
the three aspects of organizations the display, formal, and
informal aspects, explaining them in metaphorical terms
as faades, machines, and games.

Governance of the
Petroleum Sector in an
Emerging Developing Economy
Edited by Kwaku Appiah-Adu
This book deals with a range of factors that are critical to the
success of managing petroleum resources and hence require
close attention by emerging petroleum producing nations.
The style of the text makes it valuable to a wide spectrum of
readers and I highly recommend it to technical staff involved in
policy making in both oil companies and government agencies.
Additionally, readers who wish to acquaint themselves with
the dynamics of the petroleum industry, scholars in business
schools as well as engineering institutions, business executives

Douglas G. Long
Douglas Longs Third Generation Leadership and the Locus
of Control focused on individuals values, world views and
the behaviours needed to facilitate leadership in the future.
Here, in Delivering High Performance, he concentrates on the
individual, unit and organisational performance tied to Third
Generation Leadership. Leaders constantly seek high levels
of performance and staff engagement; but achieving either
depends on the competence and commitment of individuals
or groups.

Many people are competent to do things, but not prepared to
do them. They lack the willingness, confidence or motivation
the readiness to perform. You can have the most committed

impacting performance.
This is a How to book for those excited by the prospect of
a Third Generation Leadership approach but who still have to
grapple with performance issues.

Issues and Controversies

Edited by Mihaela Kelemen and Nick Rumens
This fascinating book provides a refreshing and stimulating
return to the analysis of pragmatism and neo-pragmatism
in the social sciences. It assesses the work of key figures
associated with the movement and expands this investigation
to consider issues of current intellectual concern to scholars
of economics, institutions and organisations. The various
contributors offer perspectives that are at once original,
critical and reflexive. Simply a must for anyone interested
in the contemporary analysis of pragmatism.

Leadership with integrity and effectiveness has always been
a major challenge, and never more so than in the global crises
we face today. Leaders need resilience, and editors Jonathan
Smith and Ginger Charles are in a prime position to enlighten
us on its importance and how to build it. With a focus on
the police service, who are so often walking the boundaries
of society, the authors provide us with vivid narratives and
practical ways of moving forward to meet challenges with
purpose and inner strength, through experience and reflective

Re-Tayloring Management
Scientific Management a Century On
Edited by Christina Evans and Leonard Holmes
If you ever thought Taylorism was a thing of the past,
then think again! The contributions to this stimulating

principles of scientific management are alive and kicking
across numerous sectors of the modern economy, debunking
the myth that modern management is all about engagement

New Normal, Radical Shift

Changing Business and Politics
for a Sustainable Future
Neela Bettridge and Philip Whiteley
Bettridge and Whiteley present a compelling indictment of
conventional measures used to gauge leadership performance
in public and private enterprises. Stressing the illogical
emphases on measures such as growth in GDP or quarterly
earnings as consistent with long-term sustainability they
bring substance to the much-ballyhooed catchphrase of
sustainability that is more often than not part of the feel-good
lexicon of corporate and governmental leaders. George
Bernard Shaw aptly described the thesis of New Normal:
Radical Shift when he wrote that all progress depends
upon the unreasonable man. Bettridge and Whiteley dare to
be unreasonable in offering a prescription for avoiding the
recurring lessons of accounting scandals and asset bubbles
of the 21st century by adoption of leadership assessments
more in sync with todays dynamic global economic and
political climate.

We know little about corporate community involvement

this interesting study starts to fill this gap by providing an
insightful analysis of corporate community involvement in
Turkey. The analysis draws on a fascinating primary data set
which is strengthened by extensive interviewing in indigenous
Turkish companies.
Andrew Millington, University of

Bath School of Management, UK
There has been tremendous growth in CCI projects in recent
years and the projects incorporated into some companies
strategy implementation are now so extensive that they are
having a profound impact on community development.
Dr Uyan-Atays systematic analysis of CCI behaviours in
Turkey provides a comparative research context that is
distinct from other environments within which CCI has
hitherto been studied. She explores economic, strategic,
cultural and institutional influences on CCI and goes a
long way to clearing up ambiguity or confusion about
where CCI sits as a manifestation of CSR in action.

Greg Park
Dr Greg Park has produced a highly readable and useful

In doing so, he provides many deep insights into leadership

alike. I very much enjoyed this book.

Sustainable Markets for

Sustainable Business
A Global Perspective for Business and
Financial Markets
This book makes an important contribution in deepening

our understanding of how the corporate governance continues
to evolve across the world and why it matters. Much of the
existing corporate governance work has focused on the
Anglo-Saxon world. This book, in contrast, fills a significant
void by providing a unique look inside the governance norms
and practices of firms based in emerging markets as well as
family owned businesses.

In Transforming Governance the contributors, guided by
Maria Aluchna and Gler Aras, address the current state,
as well as the development of corporate governance and its
perceived tasks and functions, in response to the changing
market and regulatory environment.
The book addresses the inefficiencies, scandals and crises
as well as the significant shortcomings and current criticism
of shareholder value, the forces which lead to the changing
corporate governance paradigm, and corporate governance
case studies within various organizational and institutional
settings. The books contributors comprise both researchers
and business experts addressing both theoretical and

Sustainable Governance
in Hybrid Organizations
An International Case Study of
Water Companies
Edited by Gler Aras

This work demonstrates the multi-dimensional elements
of sustainability, moving beyond conceptions of sustainable
enterprise and industry, to ask fundamental questions
regarding the sustainability of markets. Can markets be
made to work towards sustainable development rather than
environmental destruction? The book highlights how new
modes of regulation, governance, incentives and strategic
thinking are essential to reformulate the fundamental
objectives and operations of economic endeavour towards
sustainable goals.
Thomas Clarke, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia
Today, sustainability risks and opportunities have
become a global imperative and a megatrend for business.
Sustainable Markets for Sustainable Business explores the
relationship between markets and business and sustainable
development, as well as issues such as climate change,
pollution, land degradation and biodiversity loss. Gler Aras
explains how these factors are, in part, the result of market
failures, present in most sectors of the economy.
The worlds markets have the potential to improve the lives
of billions in developing countries, reducing poverty and
securing environmental quality for future generations.
Often they fail to capture the full value of natural resources or
promote the interests of poor people. Therefore, an effective
public policy framework is required. Market governance and
the relationship between the market and political authority
remains a core question at the heart of the sustainability
debate.

Linne Marie Lauesen

This book addresses a topic of current worldwide
significance: the quasi-privatization of water management
services. Based on rich data from Scandinavia (and beyond),
it offers actionable insight into the challenges of implementing
a sustainable (stakeholder-based) governance system that is
suitable for the hybrid organizations that are emerging in this
new global context.
Eva Boxenbaum, Mines ParisTech, France
Linne Marie Lauesen explores how organizational
governance and sustainability are at play within hybrid
organizations, with a particular focus on water companies.
Water companies are highly regulated whilst working
primarily for the betterment of society and on behalf of
generations to come.
Lauesen explains how these organizations manage
to balance their triple bottom lines in order to survive
financially, socially, and environmentally. The author shows
in a clear and accessible way how the model of juxtaposition
between non-profit and for-profit water companies can be
transferred to other business spheres.

There is evidence to testify to the fact that new business

cannot be dealt with simply by looking at findings from
traditional marketing. The reality is that many of these
new enterprises result in very high infancy mortality rates.
Entrepreneurial Marketing offers a blend of two discrete
management areas, marketing and entrepreneurship. The
book delves not only into the concept but also the operation
of EM in such a way that it becomes easy to implement.
The chapters include contemporary real-life stories and

technical and product wizardry of whats possible. Value
Creation and the Internet of Things is refreshing in its ability
to frame up the opportunity and the challenges by focusing us

us as a society, a culture and our businesses. Alexander Manu
succeeds in building the so-needed thread between business,

Value Creation and the Internet of Things describes value
delivery and consumption, exploring the mechanisms by
which new value is captured and created in enterprises
dedicated to competing and prospering in this new
environment. Manu revisits existing theories and frameworks
of intrinsic motivation, explores their validity in the age of
co-creation, and synthesizes a new framework to capture the
changes in the mind-sets of individuals and organizations.
The book provides a context in which the Internet of Things
will soon become mainstream, forcing organizations to
re-evaluate their value creation methodologies in light
of new consumer behavior and expectations.

Why Customers Would Rather

Have a Smartphone than a Car
Cor Molenaar
Why Customers Would Rather Have a Smartphone than a Car
explores some of the fundamental changes in consumer
behaviour: Why do we buy less in shops and more on the
internet? Why do we spend more on gadgets, smartphones
and Apps and not more on food, holidays or clothing? Why
do most business people only look at symptoms and not
causes of changing customer behaviour? The new generation
buys differently from the baby boomers; they have different
priorities and preferences. The internet has changed us
in the way we think, act and communicate. Whilst many
retailers now understand the need for change, few of them
have established convincing or sustainable models for the
future.
Cor Molenaar argues that by understanding the drivers
behind these new consumer behaviours, retailers can
identify the opportunities this represents and adapt their
offering accordingly. The kind of relationship retailing he
advocates involves the way the retailer interacts with their
customer; the new environment that they need to sustain
along with their ability to relate customer data, technology
and new services.

Its a given in todays online marketplace that you are

perceived as being always on. Make sure your governance
programmes for your systems and platforms keep it that way.
Always On provides an understanding of what it takes to
develop, implement and run a digital strategy but it is not
meant as a rigid process document that must be strictly
adhered to. Companies have different needs and live in
vastly different environments. The internal structure of an
organization and the market in which it competes is not
going to adapt to a digital strategy process, it must find
a process and methodology that works best for it.
Success or, more moderately, a good result is all about
your people, their engagement and their buy-in.
Think fast, be agile, be ready youre always on!

Whats Your Business?
Corporate Design Strategy Concepts and
Processes
Claire T. Tomlins
Being in the midst of revamping and rebranding my business,
I found this book very useful. I wanted to understand the
concept of Corporate Design and its impact and what needed
to be considered. The book is incredibly thorough and I
would highly recommend it to anyone involved in corporate
design, either as a consultant or business owner. It would
also be very useful as a textbook for students. The chapters
are clearly laid out and the headings and sub-sections make
it easy as a reference book. I also like the use of the case
study which is used throughout the book to demonstrate
various elements relating to each chapter. I found it a very
enjoyable read; was able to learn a lot from it and will definitely
use as a reference in the future.
Thora Thorsdottir, specialist transition consultant
and owner of T Thorsdottir
Whats Your Business? explores the impact of developing
digital technology on brand creation which uniquely
positions a business in a marketplace, through symbolic
and coherent design.
By combining corporate and design strategy with creativity,
Claire Tomlins illustrates the subjects diversity. She ensures
businesses set goals, strategies and plans and that they
take care in selecting an identity to spark the corporate
design strategy and creative inputs for marketing purposes;
including design management, measurements and IP topics.
This book explains to business people, designers and
students why design is important and where each of their
skills are required within the corporate environment.

Action Research for

Professional Selling
Measuring Service Performance
Peter McDonnell and Jean McNiff
Ralf Lisch
This is an exhilarating book. McDonnell and McNiff give us an

enlightened and enlightening perspective on action research
which is thoroughly modern. The texts modernity lies in its
clarity of vision and future-orientation for professional practice
in higher education. Drawing deeply on inter-disciplinary
theories of practice, they challenge academics in business
schools and education departments alike to embrace the
democratisation of knowledge for 21st-century learning.
This book is an eye-opener for everybody dealing with

quality measurement. It looks at quality studies from an
invigoratingly different perspective focussing on meaning
and drawing the fine line between facts and artifacts.
Measuring Service Performance has the potential to become
a standard work and is a must-read for everybody who deals
as researcher or as manager with quality studies in the
service industry.
Jenny Naish, Dean of York St John Business School, UK
Dr Eberhard Sasse, Chairman of Dr Sasse AG, Munich-BerlinLondon, and President of the Chamber of Commerce and
Industry for Munich and Upper Bavaria
Practical Research for Better Quality
Action Research for Professional Selling is about selling.

It is also about studying and improving your practice as
a salesperson. By doing this you can increase your sales,
raise your professionalism and show how you hold yourself
accountable for what you are doing.
The book offers an innovative, practical approach to
selling, underpinned by strong theoretical and philosophical
frameworks and as such makes a valuable contribution to
the literature and to the knowledge base and enhancement
of selling as a profession.

How to Shorten and Focus the Shoppers

Routes to Purchase
Roddy Mullin and Colin Harper
Mullin and Harper are very experienced directors and have
succeeded in capturing their knowledge and expertise in this
fascinating book, Shoppernomics: how to shorten and focus
the shoppers routes to purchase. The biggest disservice that
19th-century economists did to mankind was to assert that
consumers are rational. The fact is that they remain an enigma
and any insights into their behaviour are to be welcomed.
I wish I had had this book and its insights and wisdom when
I was Marketing Director of a major fast-moving consumer
goods company all those years ago. Well done Roddy and
Colin. You have made a major contribution with this book.

Malcolm McDonald, Emeritus Professor,

Cranfield University School of Management, UK
What happens from the moment the thought of a purchase

occurs, to ownership, is a journey that is impacted by media,
advice, packaging and now even experiencing the product
or service.
This book will open your mind to a new consumer and a new
way of going to market. It is a true wake up call (innovate or
die!) filled with loads of practical advice and real life examples
of great successes. You will emerge from reading it a marketer
ready for the 21st century.
Shelly Lazarus, Chairman Emeritus, Ogilvy & Mather
To compete for the modern consumer it is critical to move
from being an old-fashioned FMCG to being an FICG a
fast-innovating consumer goods company but there are
major internal and external hurdles to this transformation.
Outdated communication strategies based on television,
radio and print with constant repetition must be replaced
by what the authors call Lego strategies, whereby the
marketing and communication strategies are built up by
many key facets and delivered to the consumer through a
mix of various touch points. From Great to Gone points out
what the winners of the 21st century have in common that
has enabled them to achieve this transformation.

Measuring Service Performance is an appeal for an approach

to quality research that meets quality criteria itself. It is a
compelling argument against widespread but rather dubious
dealings with measurement, data and statistics. Ralf Lisch
calls for a reconsideration of the research process, focusing
on content instead of method and adding meaning to results.
Written in a practical, accessible style, the book offers
practitioners, as well as market researchers, MBA students
and others involved in the service sector a critical discussion
of Practical Research for Better Quality.
Shoppernomics
Quality research and testing means better service,

and success in the service industries demands quality.
Nonetheless, complaints about insufficient, inconsistent or

path taken by the shopper. The authors describe the drivers
including the barriers, the journey to purchase from the
discovery of the need, on the way to the store, in the store
and after purchase and then describe how to put what

The New Brand Spirit
The End of Shops
How Communicating Sustainability Builds

Brands, Reputations and Profits
Social Buying and the Battle for the Customer
Marketing High Profit Product/

Service Solutions
Cor Molenaar
Roger More
Shops need to change, to reassess their unique customer

appeal and work in new ways with suppliers and customers
if they are to survive. Online retailing is often seen as the
panacea, but is that really the case? The internet will undergo
many changes, too. Many e-retailers will disappear or end
up surviving on the margin of the mainstream. Only the most
canny suppliers and webshops, those that can make best
use of the opportunities offered by the Internet will survive.
Marketing High Profit Product/Service Solutions addresses

one of the most exciting and growing strategic marketing
opportunities facing product and service companies
bundling. Many customers want bundled products
and services which represent integrated solutions to
their problems, rather than buying individual products
and services piecemeal, and if you become that supplier
it can transform a company.
Cor Molenaar analyses the struggle, the risks and describes

the opportunities and potential for the retail trade to turn the
tide. He looks at the new buying behaviour of consumers
(the new shopping), the evolution of retail (how it used to be,
how it is now and what it has to become) and shows what the
future for the shop will actually look like.
Roger More explores what was learned by leading

companies such as Magna International, GE and IBM when
they transformed their market strategies to become bundlers
of complex integrated customer solutions. Over many years
the author has developed and tested scores of new concepts,
maps and tools for use by a wide variety of managers in
developing strategies for these bundled product/service
solutions. His book now offers access to these maps and
tools.
Christian Conrad and Marjorie Ellis Thompson

The New Brand Spirit will give confidence to and challenge
everyone engaged in brand marketing and communication.
Its breadth and depth will provide the inspiration and guidance
needed to take further the responsibility for sustaining the
planet on which we live and breathe and have our being.

To achieve patient-centricity and provide better value for

look at improving health literacy (web sites; targeted mass

patient safety (adherence to treatment regimens; equipping

Patient Safety
Transforming Big Pharma
Perspectives on Evidence, Information

and Knowledge Transfer
Assessing the Strategic Alternatives
Edited by Lorri Zipperer

From deep history to future prospects, the authors lay out the
shortcomings of current evidence-seeking and pull together
disparate concepts to show how to improve systems and
practice through effective deployment of evidence, information
and knowledge. This thoughtful, multidimensional book will
be an important contribution to the literature of patient safety.
Helen Haskell, President, Mothers Against Medical Error
The book draws from multidisciplinary areas within the acute
care environment to share models to drive proactive changes
in how team-based improvement efforts can make evidence,
information and knowledge (EIK) sharing processes reliable,
effective and necessary in support of safe care delivery. The
publication discusses how the tenets of safety (described
in the beginning of the book) can be actively applied to
EIK processes in the front line of care.

making the case for asserting democratic control over
the incursions of corporations into local medical institutions.
there is plenty to engage the interest of anyone who enjoys
thinking about the ethics of global clinical trials.
Developing World Bioethics
Edison Bicudo examines the connections between global
and local scales, exploring how it is possible for social
actors as different as global companies and patients of local
hospitals to come together and establish social relationships
that may last many years. He identifies the implications of
these global-local relationships for the financial, technical
and cultural structures of the participating hospitals. His
study draws on fieldwork conducted in five countries: the
UK, Spain, France, Brazil and South Africa.

Knowledge Management in
Healthcare
Edited by Lorri Zipperer
One of the most valuable strategic assets that can lead to
a sustained increase in the high reliability in the delivery of
healthcare is medical knowledge management. It is essential
that healthcare promotes and encourages knowledge exchange;
but to do so requires a learning culture. Although knowledge
exchange is essential for a high reliability in the delivery of
healthcare, few know how to manage the knowledge effectively.
This requires innovative management strategies to determine
effective ways of utilizing knowledge resources and capabilities
from within and outside of the facility. Lorri Zipperers book
Knowledge Management in Healthcare does just that and
peels away the onion layers of knowledge. Enjoy!

Based on an in-depth study of clinics offering assisted

fertilization, Reproductive Medicine and the Life Sciences
in the Contemporary Economy, is the first book to examine
the commercialization and commodification of know-how
derived from the life sciences, from the point of view of
organization theory. Assisted fertilization clinics are more
than just places in which medicine is applied in a clinical
setting. Changing societal norms, technology, different
professions, and a front- and back-office set-up all influence
the practices at the clinic. Clinicians actively influence
policy-making and the regulatory frameworks that monitor
and set the boundaries for their work. Clinics are thus places
where individual interests and concerns and social and
institutional arrangements intersect.

by Wendy Briner, Michael Geddes and Colin Hastings,
anticipated so many of the changes in approaches to project
management that are now regarded as mainstream; not least
the whole behavioural management focus. The third edition by

the transformation that has taken place in the world of
projects, teams and leadership.
Project Leadership, Third Edition, looks at the nature the
leadership role in projects and how this is significant

shaping and scoping, start up, delivery to project closure.
The authors put considerable emphasis on a set of core
human skills around the themes of vision and strategy,

Project Portfolio Management

Alfonso Bucero
Project portfolio management has been a much neglected
element within many organizations approaches to project
management which is counter-intuitive when you consider
the potential it offers. Alfonso Bucero recognizes the value
of this technique as a means of enabling decisions on which
projects to approve, which to reject and which to fast-track.
He explains the relationship of portfolio management to
project and program management and places all three
elements in the context of organizational success.The text
then uses models, templates and examples to provide you
with a battery of tools for making portfolio management
decisions and realising the results of those decisions.

Project Stakeholder Management

Pernille Eskerod and Anna Lund Jepsen
Projects can only be successful through contributions
from stakeholders. And in the end, it is the stakeholders
that evaluate whether they find that the project is a success.
To manage stakeholders effectively, you need to know your
stakeholders, their behaviours and attitudes towards the
project. In Project Stakeholder Management, the authors
give guidance on how to adopt an analytical and structured
approach; how to document, store and retrieve your
knowledge; how to plan your stakeholder interactions in
advance; and how to make your plans explicit, at the very
least internally. A well-conceived plan can prevent you from
being carried away in the heat of the moment and help you
spend your limited resources for stakeholder management
in the best way.

ADVANCES IN PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Series editor: Darren Dalcher
Project management has become a key competence for most organisations in the public and private sectors. Driven by recent business trends such as fewer management layers, greater
flexibility, increasing geographical distribution and more project-based work, project management has grown beyond its roots in the construction, engineering and aerospace industries to
transform the service, financial, computer, and general management sectors. In fact, a Fortune article rated project management as the number one career choice at the beginning of the 21st
century. Yet many organisations have struggled in applying the traditional models of project management to their new projects in the global environment. Project management offers a
framework to help organisations to transform their mainstream operations and service performance.
Some organizations have responded to this situation by trying to improve the understanding and capability of their managers and employees who are introduced to projects, as well as their
experienced project managers in an attempt to enhance their competence and capability in this area. Advances in Project Management provides short, state of play, guides to the main aspects of
the new emerging applications including: maturity models, agile projects, extreme projects, six sigma and projects, human factors and leadership in projects, project governance, value
management, virtual teams, project benefits.

All project stakeholders have different needs, objectives,

responsibilities and priorities. For many project managers it
is disturbing to realise that some of their stakeholders may
not be as co-operative and helpful as they expect. It could
be a negative and powerful sponsor (the Anti-sponsor),
a demotivated team, low-maturity or unrealistic external
clients, maliciously compliant gatekeepers and finance
teams, or uninterested internal customers.
Jake Holloway, Professor David Bryde and Roger Joby bring
their years of project management experience and combine
it with research and insight from social psychology to delve
into how and why project stakeholders can be difficult.
The book describes some of the common stakeholder types
such as Sponsors, the Team, Gatekeepers, Clients and
Contractors - and associated unhelpful or difficult behaviour
profiles that you will often come across on projects. It
combines theory with practical ideas, techniques and
methods to help manage the impact of these stakeholders.

Twelve Project Cases and a Commentary

Stephen Wearne and Keith White-Hunt
The book reviews 12 real-life urgent and unexpected projects,
how they were started and managed, and the lessons that can
be learnt from these It is suitable for lecturers and students
of management; managers/project managers; and those
involved in disaster-recovery, business continuity planning
or incident management in both public and private sectors.
BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT
Sometimes unanticipated threats or opportunities create a
situation in which work is required unexpectedly. On these
occasions, such urgent and unexpected work demands
an instant start, in contrast to the often lengthy processes
of investigation, evaluation, development, selection and
planning normal in businesses and public services before
the start of a project.
Managing the Urgent and Unexpected explores what
is different managerially if work is unexpected, its
implementation is urgent and an immediate start it is
required. The lessons offered here will help private and
public organizations plan how to authorize and support
future urgent work to take advantage of immediate new
business opportunities or to protect or restore systems
and services.

The book begins with an overview from Dalcher and some

context-setting. It then offers a diversity of astute opinion
from a range of experienced individuals, all with their own
specific focus within project management. I was delighted
that there were a number of chapters addressing what I
would refer to as tough skills (more commonly, erroneously
labelled soft skills) including stakeholder management,
the psychology of project management, decision making,
communication and benefits realisation.

Four Spheres of Lean and Agile

Transformation
Edited by Massimo Pica
Thomas P. Wise and Reuben Daniel
This is an essential guide for those involved in construction

project design, tendering and contracting to help ensure the
sustainability of the project, or their contribution to it, from
the start. It is also important for those involved in the delivery
of the project to help them make the choices to keep the
project on a financial even keel.
Wise and Daniel have crafted a powerful book on the

possibilities of repeatable successes for agile and lean
initiatives. Taken together these management tools present
opportunities for dramatic changes to organizational flexibility
and adaptability for the technology and services age. Through
a combination of applied theory, practical frameworks and
homespun tales, the authors provide a practical set of advice
for current and future transformational leaders.

Project Management for

Supplier Organizations
Harmonising the Project Owner to
Supplier Relationship
Adrian Taggart
Adrian has produced a guide that deals with the realities
of project management. He addresses the key issues that
cannot be controlled by rules and procedures, including the
interaction between people, the relevance of organisational
structures and the importance of stakeholders. He uses
practical experience to guide us through the management
of the full project lifecycle from a supplier and owner
organisations view. This helps the reader understand the
challenges of their counterpart. This is a wide-ranging and
practical guide.
Steve Pears, Managing Director,
Telent Technology Services Limited
Project Management for Supplier Organizations tackles key
issues such as: how a well thought-out procurement process
seeks to maximise those interests that client and supplier
have in common and diminish the consequences of those
that are not; the commercial and practical importance of
managing change; the risks that face supplier organizations
when addressing project related work; the implications
for other organizational disciplines of the Supplier when
embracing project work and areas of additional expertise that
may be required.
Adrian Taggart offers readers, from contract organizations,
a real story and urgent set of priorities when it comes to
managing a project and, those from client organizations,
with an understanding of how best they can work with their
suppliers to mutual benefit.

Exercising Agency
Strategy happens via projects. How strategy drives project

initiation is a missing link in understanding between strategyformulation and project-management. This study uses
real-life experiences to theorise this process. Organisations
and processes are important, but much is about individuals,
their personality and their sense of agency. A very useful book
for both academics and students who want to understand
project initiation in practice, and practitioners who want to
understand rigorously how to make decisions better.
Terry Williams, Hull University Business School, UK
Mark Mullaly uses his 25 years of experience to lift the lid
on many of the important behavioural factors that inform
project decisions: power and politics, personality, the rules
of an organization. If you are involved in framing or making
decisions about the future of your organization; the projects
that you do or dont decide to initiate, then read this book.
It wont make the decisions any easier but it will help you
improve the quality of the decisions you make and over time,
the effectiveness of your organizational decision making.

Management (PM) has become an important discipline and a
concept critical to modern organizations, public and private.
With his focus on the quantitative models of Operations
Research and Management Science applied to Project
Management, Jos Ramn San Cristbal Mateo fills the gap
between scientific research and the practical application of
that research, providing project managers with the tools and

Martin Price
If ever a book were written better equipped to stimulate
you to think about your thinking when it comes to projects,
programmes and the changes they bring; I have yet to find it.
Martin puts forward not only a collection of ideas that reach
out and grab your attention, but also a number of subtle
suggestions which sow the seeds of change in your attitude.
This is one of those rare books which you will love to own
and cherish more.
Paul Hodgkins, Executive Director,
Paul Hodgkins Project Consultancy
The Single-Minded Project offers an approach to project
management that is entirely complementary to the existing
methodologies; one that recognises that at its heart, the
management of a project relies on the perceived choices
and methods, behaviours and decision-making of its players
and the freedom of action that is permitted to the project
regime. It fills in the gaps where the methodology doesnt
provide any kind of response to questions such as how fast
should we deliver this project and how much diligence
is appropriate in our decision-making. It recognises that
performance ultimately rests on human knowledge, resolve,
skill and collaboration.

Techniques for Reconciling Business-asUsual and Project Cultures
Dennis Lock
Everyone who is involved in project management will benefit

from reading this book. Dennis Lock has maintained the
standard that we have come to expect of him in his writings
and there is little doubt that this latest book will join his
others as a must-have for all experienced and aspiring
project managers. Companies whose business is project
management should ensure that all its coal face employees
have read this book and have the full support of the company
so that they can implement the suggestions that Lock has
been kind enough to make. Unlike several other books in the
marketplace on project management, this book covers both
project planning and project execution - the combination of
which is necessary to achieve a wholly successful project.
Inadequate project planning will make successful project
execution a difficult, if not impossible, target to attain.
Project Magazine
The fourth edition of Essentials of Project Management
is the complement to Dennis Locks comprehensive, and
encyclopaedic textbook; Project Management (now in its
Tenth Edition). Essentials provides a concise account of the
principles and techniques of project management, designed
to meet the needs of the business manager or student. Using
examples and illustrations, the author introduces the key
project management procedures and explains clearly how
and when to use them.

Edited by Dennis Lock and Lindsay Scott
This book has 63 chapters that average at about 13 pages per
chapter. Each chapter has an introduction, some discussion
and a conclusion, and is written by a current practitioner. I
think that rather than being read from cover to cover, this
book should be treated more like an encyclopedia - it could be
the first place you would go to in order to research a topic, to
be followed up in more detail if need be. In this application,
the book does a good job across a wide range of subjects it
should be borne in mind that for this price you are getting at
least 3 times the content of a more standard-sized book. This
would be a good book to have on the shelves of a university,
an organisational PMO, or a PM practitioner looking to develop
their knowledge of the people aspects of PM.

as an introductory guide to the world of project management.
It is for students and managers who need to understand how
small projects should be managed but who, nonetheless, do
not necessarily intend to become permanent project managers
themselves. In this little book, Dennis has stripped project
management down to its bare facts simplifying everything
but trivializing nothing. He explains and illustrates the
essential project management skills in pragmatic and jargonfree terms. Everything is carefully laid out and supported with
clear diagrams. It covers all the essential aspects of project
management using astonishingly few words.

Bridging the Business-Project Divide is a wonderfully

pragmatic book which understands that one of the most
natural ways to connect projects and business-as-usual
activities is by identifying the needs of both, where these
diverge and, most importantly, how to bring them together.
Unfortunately, the natural side-effect of two so different
perspectives is misunderstanding, mutual incomprehension,
and despite good intentions on both sides, failure to deliver
to mutual benefit.

A very valuable body of knowledge covering best practice
and established theory for those involved with the long term
cost appraisal of complex engineering projects. The first part
of the book provides a thorough and essential grounding
in the basic concepts of systems life cycle and related
economics. The second part of the book, with its coverage of
a wide range of practical engineering applications, will afford
an essential reference for practitioners conducting analysis,
estimation and managing the life cycle costs of complex
systems as well as for students of life cycle cost estimation
and evaluation.
A.J. Barltrop, President, Association of Cost Engineers, UK
The pressure to minimize expenditure and provide value for
money from reduced resources means that complex projects
have to encompass a wide range of often conflicting issues
and interests. Systems Lifecycle Cost-Effectiveness shows
how to manage the difficulties that can arise. Massimo Pica
presents a variety of models for calculating cost, benefits
and risk in projects, and explains how the human factors
associated with a systems design and consequent value
are as important as the technical costs associated with its
construction or creation.

Ever wondered why your organisations strategies have
limited impact or simply fail? Phil Drivers book addresses
this issue using a simple but powerful model: PRUB (also
known as Project Results Users Benefits). As I read the
early chapters, I began contacting work colleagues about the
simplicity of PRUB and how it can be applied to the way we
look at the benefits of our interventions The PRUB model
is a valuable tool for both the organisation and a professional
project manager to have at their disposal.
Project magazine
The model at the heart of this book: Organisations run
Projects that produce Results and enable people to Use
them to create Benefits, is intuitive and provides a succinct
approach to project and programme management that
guides organisations to create, validate and implement
strategies.
Phil Driver brings together the worlds of strategy and project
management so as to combine effectiveness (doing the right
things) with efficiency (doing things right).

Implementation Guidelines for Major Projects

Robert James Chapman
Rob Chapmans book is highly unusual but completely
invaluable in taking a case study based approach to a subject
that often is confused by an excess of jargon and process.
Dr Chapman draws on an extensive international range
of real projects to demonstrate how things can so easily
go wrong, and what project managers can learn from high
profile failures. I thoroughly recommend this book to
anyone involved in project and programme management.
Steve Fowler, CEO, The Institute of Risk Management, UK
The discipline of project risk management is continually
evolving and has matured over time. However within
the literature there has been a disproportionate focus on
process, techniques and statistical analysis at the expense
of understanding how effective risk management is
delivered. The Rules of Project Risk Management provides
readers with practical insights in the form of guidelines or
rules to enhance effective delivery of a discipline which
has been proven to directly contribute to securing a projects
objectives. A series of mini case studies are included to
improve comprehension of the guidelines. The structure
of the book has been designed to enable project and risk
personnel and students alike to quickly appreciate and
assimilate those aspects of risk management that warrant
close scrutiny and comprehension. Robert Chapmans advice
is given with clarity and is based on very broad experience.

Communicating Projects
An End-to-End Guide to Planning,
Implementing and Evaluating Effective
Communication
Ann Pilkington
This is a well written, practical and easy to read book,
whilst at the same time having a sound grounding in theory.
Its coverage of all elements of communication in project
management make it invaluable to those new to projects.
However, I would also recommend it to the more seasoned
project manager to improve on techniques already used.
All in all a productive read.

This is a very useful guide for any project manager who is

first step is to be aware of the issues involved, and the book

How to Ensure You Achieve What You

Need from Your Projects
Mario Kossmann
There are many books and scientific publications on systems
engineering and requirements management. This book is not
claiming to substitute them but rather offers a comprehensive
and practical guide for project managers in a wide range of
business contexts of different levels of complexity. The book
is written in a simple but not simplistic manner supported
by concrete and detailed real life examples, thereby allowing
non-experts in the field to greatly enhance their project
outcomes via improved management of their requirements.

PRACTICAL BUILDING CONSERVATION

English Heritage
They offer considerable information and advice on many aspects of conservation Great emphasis is placed in all the volumes on making the reader familiar with the material in question, giving
them as much information and direction as possible to allow them to understand what they are dealing with gives a comprehensive hands on approach; solutions are found, methods described
and practical tips freely given.
Jane Jones-Warner, Member RIBA Conservation Group, RIBA SCA AABC IHBC
The primary editors for each volume acknowledge the contributions of numerous authors and the series strength is in the breadth of the conservation community engaged in the project - a
twenty-first-century galaxy of highly regarded practitioners and conservators brought together in a single technical series the books are accessibly organized and elegantly designed. It is easy to
navigate around them and, importantly, between them. Links to other volumes in the series are colour-coded in the text so that cross-referral to Stone, for example, from Mortars, which is frequently
relevant, provides helpful signposting to the relevant detailed guidance in the companion handbook The illustrations are enormously valuable and the Timber volume, in particular, includes
axonometric drawings of timber structures that beautifully display complex construction. These volumes are in all ways an essential, one-stop resource for conservation practitioners: well-organized,
expertly informed, compellingly illustrated, signposting other key resources and (let us not take this for granted) written in lucid English.
The Historic Environment
Since the original series of Practical Building Conservation appeared in 1988, it has become a standard reference for those caring for historic buildings large and small: essential reading for
architects, surveyors and building managers, as well as conservators. Ashgate Publishing and English Heritage are now publishing an update to this seminal series. The new series has not
only been updated to cover the latest techniques and materials, but has been greatly expanded and copiously illustrated. English Heritage is renowned for its expertise in the conservation of
buildings, gardens and archaeological sites, and these books are an accessible distillation of many years of experience. They look in detail at building materials ranging from the ancient to the
modern, and are studded throughout with practical advice.
Practical Building Conservation:

Earth, Brick and Terracotta

Concrete
Earth, Brick and Terracotta deals with fired and unfired clay
products. It considers their technological evolution, the
processes causing deterioration and how these should
be assessed, and the methods used for their repair and
maintenance.
This hardback book is a delight to handle, the text is well

laid out and pleasing to the eye and there are numerous
well-drawn diagrams. Both colour and black-and-white
photographs (many supplied by The Concrete Society) are
artistically used to richly illustrate this volume, bringing to
life what can sometimes be a dull material. This really is an
impressive-looking book.

within them by using appropriate maintenance and repair
strategies Each section is presented in a succinct, crisp,

Successful Supply Chain
Vendor Compliance
Norman A. Katz
Whatever role your organization occupies in the global
supply chain, as a producer or a vendor, inconsistencies in
services or processes either upstream or downstream can
introduce significant costs or risks to your business. The
longer and more culturally and geographically diverse the
supply chain, the greater the risks and the harder it is to
ensure compliance standards along its length. Successful
Supply Chain Vendor Compliance explains the technical,
process and cultural elements that go into a successful
compliance program. Bernard Katz looks at the design,
communication and evaluation of compliance programs.
Along the way, he tackles tough issues such as ethics and
fairness and offers insights that will help both producers and
vendors improve their supply chain. Norman Katzs practical
guide is a must-have resource to help you with this complex
and shifting aspect of international business.

Richard Gibbs and Andrew Humphries
The Strategic Alliance Handbook

A Practitioners Guide to
Business-to-Business Collaborations
You cannot build a successful alliance by rote it is as
much an art as a science and this book expertly covers both
aspects equally well. The Common Success Factors guide the
reader through the science a comprehensive discussion
of what to consider. The Case Studies and examples from
Mikes own experience give a guide to the artistic aspects.
Working through the various strategic and tactical decisions
that must at least be considered, the book offers value to
everyone involved in Alliances.
Clive South, EMEA Alliance Manager at Hewlett-Packard
Strategic alliances are complex business models to get right,
and with less than 11% of alliances delivering the anticipated
results this advice on developing the skills of alliancing and
the long-term capability of the business will be welcomed.
The Strategic Alliance Handbook is a clear and complete
guide to the nuts and bolts of the process behind successful
collaborations. The book enables readers to understand the
commercial, technical, strategic, cultural and operational
logic behind any alliance and to establish an approach that is
appropriate for the kind of alliance they are seeking and the
partner organization(s) with whom they are working.

As an entrepreneur who has started several businesses,

most of which were centred on partnerships, I can highly
recommend Enterprise Relationship Management as a real
tour de force of this topic. It is clear that the authors have
distilled their deep knowledge and many years experience into
this book. It covers all you need to know of this increasingly
important and often neglected corner of the modern business
world. I particularly enjoyed Chapters 3 and 4 on cultural
influences and found the section on reporting very helpful.
Figure 6.9 is typical of the very useful graphics throughout the
book and deals with the key question make, collaborate or
buy?; increasingly the answer is collaborate and this book
is the perfect guide to efficiently managing that process.
Mike Reilly, CEO, Ether NDE Ltd
Richard Gibbs and Andrew Humphries provide a practical
guide to the management process needed for co-ordinating
all the business activities that are essential to the success
of a joint/multi-party endeavour. The eight partnership types
that the authors have developed from their research will help
readers adapt their relationship strategies to the different
opportunities that present themselves and focus their
greatest time and resources on the collaborations that
offer the greatest value.

Successful Outsourcing
and Multi-Sourcing
$154.95
If anyone has the right to write a book about successful

outsourcing its Derek, because National Rail Enquiries has
been one of the big successes in outsourcing and Derek has
played a key part in that success. Dont expect this to be an
academic study, although all the luminaries are here: Lesley
Wilcox, Tom Gash, Chris Halward and more. Derek calls upon
them to demonstrate his points and argue why one course
of action may be better than another. He illustrates this
work with a number of case studies National Rail Enquires
of course, and many more. He includes checklists, some
excellent examples from the Institute of Government and
historical points ranging from the Ford Motor Company in
the 1920s to the UK Cabinet Office in 2013! There are some
cracking recommendations, ideas and observations; you
can tell Derek is a practitioner as, unusually for books on
outsourcing, he devotes many pages to transition and change.
If youve ever run an outsourcing programme, believe me,
this is one of the most important areas in outsourcing and is
often overlooked. Finally he shows how a lifecycle model can
help you understand the outsourcing process and prepare for
whats to come.
All in all I would recommend this book to anyone either
starting, running or responsible for outsourcing; it balances
research and the school of hard knocks (Dereks hands-on
experience) to give you a well-balanced view of outsourcing.
You can read it from cover to cover to build up your knowledge
or delve into the sections that will help you deal with the
issues you are facing now. If youve read this far, youll know
Im convinced, so buy it!
Martyn Hart, Founder of the National Outsourcing
Association (NOA), UK
The author of Successful Outsourcing and Multi-Sourcing is
a practitioner heading an operation that handles 500 million
customer contacts a year with less than 30 staff, through
both outsourcing and multi-sourcing. As well as a focus
on multi-sourcing, the book addresses the question of
why a business should outsource in the first place and
how decisions to do this should be strategic, rather than
it being something that happens by accident.

Supply Chain Visibility
From Theory to Practice
Sustainable Value Chain

Management
Jonah Saint McIntire
A Research Anthology
Jonah McIntire brings a unique mix of academic and industry

experience to his work. This allows him to guide readers of
all organizational levels and experience through the theory
and into the practical aspects of implementing a supply
chain visibility initiative. His review of existing technologies
is especially useful for those just starting down this road.

Mike Early, formerly Managing Director of Logistics,

Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc.
Jonah McIntire sets the stage for a new framework that

empowers business leaders to connect their projects, tasks
or work streams back to the strategic message that it is
worth applying organizational resources to supply chain
visibility. Drawing on research findings, he reviews the
prerequisites needed for a successful visibility solution and
suggests a visibility fitness scorecard to compare the quality
of widely varying approaches. The second section of Supply
Chain Visibility reviews in detail the eight most common
types of supply chain visibility and offers a set of indicators
of potential fit for each one. The book also explains how
to acquire visibility technology and the available options,
including guidance on best practice for in-house designed
systems.

Understanding the Financial Impact

of Buying Decisions
Richard France
Professional purchasing people need to understand business
finance and costing, frequently as part of an upstream Supplier
Appraisal process, but also within existing relationships. As
Purchasing moves to be more strategic this is evermore so.
This book will be a useful resource for buyers both testing
the viability of supplying organisations and also those
investigating the sources of cost which Suppliers propose
to include within in the goods and services they provide.

The last two decades have seen the growing recognition

in business that social and environmental problems are
increasingly business problems. Initially, it was in the sectors
most obviously affected, such as the resource-extraction
industries, now it is becoming widely taken for granted as
business people in many sectors come to see how their
companies affect and are affected by forces such as climate
change, resource scarcity, and population growth. As this
research anthology makes amply clear, value chains are
key to an effective response by companies to many of these
sustainability challenges, and organizations are now starting
to give attention to sustainability in managing their value
chains. Drawing on a wide range of different geographical and
industry perspectives, this rich collection of articles provides
a basis for deeper understanding of both the sustainability
challenges in value chains and the business opportunities.

Working Together
Organizational Transactional Analysis
and Business Performance
Anita Mountain and Chris Davidson
Anita and Chris help us take a fresh look at common
workplace frustrations, providing the framework and
vocabulary to understand and prevent them. The exercises
provided help us change our behaviour at home and in
the workplace to help us get the successful outcomes we
know we deserve. A must read reference book for CEOs,
managers, salespeople, trainers and anyone who has ever
struggled to understand the human condition!

Nigel Dunand, Professional Development Director,

Sandler Training
Anita Mountain and Chris Davidson explore the dynamics

of organizations and their performance through the lens of
Transactional Analysis to enable effective communication at
all levels of the organization. TA is particularly accessible and
effective because every tool can be illustrated with diagrams
and the text uses this principle to provide a balance between
theory and practical application. This is a book that offers
a comprehensive look at the whole range of aspects that
enhance and support relationships within the context of
organizations.

Digital Dieting
Action Learning for Managers
From Information Obesity to Intellectual Fitness
SECOND EDITION
Tara Brabazon
The breadth of the book is staggering at times, as Brabazon
explores a wide range of issues that surround the digital media
and information landscape today, including the concept of
digital justice and equality, how the conspicuous consumption
of iPads and other branded technologies can control the
information we receive, and how to help learners effectively
migrate through the different stages and levels of literacy.
Throughout, Brabazons strategies are delivered in a way that
is refreshingly personal, honest and passionate. Her desire
to improve the quality of student learning and engagement
permeates every page. Some of her ideas and techniques may
(inadvertently) make great soundbytes, however this is a book
about a lot more than the idea of banning Google for first year
undergraduates, and it would be very wrong if that were to be
the main focus of what is a wide-ranging, thought-provoking
and much-needed discussion.

ABC of Action Learning
LSE Review of Books

One of the major intangible benefits associated with the
postgraduate research experience is precisely that: the
experience. For many doctoral students that experience is
shaped by their relationship with and support from their
supervisor. Against a challenging background of growing
numbers of students but also increasing pressures on time
and costs, Enhancing the Doctoral Experience offers an
approach to improve the effectiveness of the doctoral student
and increase the professionalization of research supervision.
It does so by providing both with an awareness of, and a
toolkit to approach, student diversity.

Reg Revans
an excellent, thoughtfully-produced pragmatic guide to the
very fine and complicated art of doctoral supervision across
cultures. Its focus on each and every conceivable aspect of the
production of a thesis, in particular, is invaluable. I am sure
that I will be returning to Enhancing the Doctoral Experience
frequently in years to come for advice and tips on making the
PhD process a successful and mutually beneficial endeavour.
Recommended.
