Описание:
This book responds to an increasingly pluricentric, reflexive, and flexible society as a result of globalization and economic liberation from the bureaucratic-political system. The third industrial revolution saw citizens, companies, and the economy acting in functional networks rather than in static ones, making top-down governing ever more difficult. Despite this, society systems created in the wake of the second industrial revolution linger on and must adapt to the globalized, digitized reality in order to stay necessary and relevant.
Through a theoretical discussion and four empirical cases studying governance and innovation systems, this volume is the first to describe the causes behind the impasse Western society seems to find itself in and suggests inclusive economic and democratic structures working in a bottom-up fashion as a way out. By understanding local circumstances as well as the innovative power of inclusive and participative structures, we can begin to pave the way to legitimate governance and growth. This book adds to the academic literature on democracy, governance, economy, and innovation systems for researchers and scholars of political science, social science, and economics.
Описание: The Alternative Gourmet is an organic, allergy-free, doctor recommended 196 page full color cookbook for people with food allergies or limitations. It is a nut-free, wheat-free, egg-free, dairy-free, pepper-free cookbook. It comes complete with Breakfast, Lunch, Soups and Salads, Hors Doeuvres, Dinner, Vegetable, Dessert, Drinks and Extras sections. Aliza wrote The Alternative Gourmet as a tribute to her daughter Sabine in hopes of helping others deal with their food allergies. The My Symptoms section of the book gives a glimpse of Alizas reactions to certain foods and elements. She added this section to give the reader help in figuring out the triggers to their issues, as everyone is different. Alizas motto is "Whatever you put in on or around your body can and will effect you, so be mindful". The My Process To Healing section is the road to which Aliza took for her own healing to begin and it worked. She included this as a guide for others to use, as it may differ from what works best for their own unique healing method. The Alternatives Section was added, as everyone is different and one person may be able to ingest something that another person cannot. This section allows the reader to substitute certain foods to fit their personal dietary needs. The Alternative Gourmet Cookbook is a guide for those with food-allergies to be creative and fearless in their culinary world despite their dietary limitations. "Dont let food allergies rob your taste buds. Heres to loving food again" ~Aliza Durand

Описание: Words are powerful. Words destroy. Words build up. Words must be acknowledged. And most of all, words can change lives. Some years ago, while on a business trip in South Africa I became very aware of various "sayings" or anecdotes. In retrospect, I know it was a "divine moment". Seemingly, everywhere I went on that trip, from bumper stickers on the back of a car, to the billboards that lined the highway, even the elevator that took me to the floor of my hotel room - sayings seemed to be everywhere I looked. Noticing that I was being led to increase my level of both listening and observation, I felt impressed to write them down as I encountered them. I did so even after my return to my home in the U.S. The list continued to build and build and over the course of about 4 years, I had compiled over two hundred of these thoughts. While many of them came from both bumper stickers as well as things heard on television many of them came from books that Ive read and dear friends and colleagues - In fact, I have quite of few of them from one my most beloved mentors and friends (and Pastor) Joel A. Brooks, Jr. - things "caught" from time to time from his teachings. I dont think of myself as a writer, really, although, as of this writing, Ive been published nationally four other times. Actually, I consider myself a "senior beginner" in the discipline of global diversity, equity and inclusion having worked with some of the worlds largest brands and companies over my, now, 25 years in the industry. As you can imagine, Ive learned at least two or three things over that time but even with all of my experience, I always try to have a posture of learning and listening. And this is the origin of this collection of thoughts. My hope is that you are inspired and even challenged by some of them. This was a fun project for me. And I havent stopped collecting the sayings but lets call this "Volume I". Remember, your words have power - Use them wisely. Use them thoughtfully - and most of all use them graciously.

Описание: My purpose in writing The Four-Way Fit is to advance the science of innovation-- in ways both practical and actionable; for entrepreneurs and business leaders; at every stage of company-building. For the past fifteen years, innovation theory and practice have been dominated by the Lean Startup Model. This innovation era was first ushered in by Steve Blank, with the publication of Four Steps to the Epiphany in 2005. Eric Ries built on Blanks seminal work in his 2011 book The Lean Startup. These two luminaries are the grandfathers of the lean startup movement, which has transformed innovation worldwide. Phrases like "minimum viable product", "agile development" and "build / measure / learn" are rooted in their work. Companies in all corners of the globe are today more customer-centric, more scientific, more incremental, and more agile-- directly because of their work. But still, today we are in need of a new and better innovation model. Fully half of all small businesses launched in the US this year will be gone in 5 years. Half of the companies on the S&P 500 list today will not be on the list in 10 years. For all the good the lean startup model has brought us, time and experience have taught us its gaps. Over the past fifteen years, we have come to learn that to traverse the journey from early-stage startup to iconic global enterprise, lean thinking is certainly key-- but it is not sufficient. The path to greatness begins with an initial value breakthrough, achieved in a large market. Great companies then go on to perfect and extend that value, while simultaneously building pathways to sustainable competitive advantage. This requires work in four domains: Market, Product, Model and Team. At every stage of company-building, they figure out what it takes inside these domains to move on to the next stage-- and then they execute. Through the embrace of design thinking, lean thinking, strategic thinking and systems thinking, they methodically build up, sustain and extend customer-defined value. It all requires more than just product / market fit. It takes a Four-Way Fit-- found at the juncture of Market, Product, Model and Team. To find this fit, you need a framework and a method. The Four-Way Fit framework helps you to clarify the domains and subdomains that matter most in charting the innovation path. Within them, you can then differentiate between those assumptions you are confident are true, and are therefore immediately actionable; versus those that require testing and verification before investment and action. The difference between these two types of assumptions is important; understanding it helps you avoid waste of money and time. The job of the method is to help you march from your current stage to the next with efficiency and effect. It helps you strike the right balance between planning steps and action steps. It clarifies what to do if a key assumption proves flawed. It helps you test, iterate and optimize, so you can narrow in on truth, reach the next value inflection point and by so doing reach the next stage. The Four-Way Fit is organized into three parts. Part One addresses the framework. Part Two addresses the method. And Part Three addresses the unique requirements presented by each company-building stage.
