Understand how circular economy principles reshape business strategy and practice. The Circular Economy by Suzanne Smit and Uthayasankar Sivarajah is a practical and theory-informed textbook for postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students studying Circular Economy, Sustainable Business and related business and management courses.

The Circular Economy

Blending accessible theory, narrative research, and experience inside a global tech company, this book explores how remote and hybrid work are reshaping professional identity, trust, and power inside organizations-and challenges the notion that hybrid work is the natural endpoint of remote evolution.While many employees have adapted to working anywhere, many organizations haven't caught up. As return-to-office mandates clash with new expectations of autonomy and flexibility, a deeper tension is playing out: not just where work happens, but how it's understood, measured, and controlled. Beyond the Office is a pracademic guide for leaders navigating this shift. It offers practical, research-informed strategies for embedding flexible work systems, without losing the human or organizational core, and uses real-life stories, interviews, and case studies from across industries to bring theory to life and make abstract concepts actionable.Tailored to resonate with early-career professionals, middle managers, and senior leaders alike, this book earns its place on any business bookshelf with grounded insights on how leaders can foster culture, performance, and wellbeing when traditional management structures are no longer fit for purpose.

Rethinking Work, Trust, and Power in a Post-Place World

Beyond the Office

Too many leaders are burning out--and taking their teams with them. Despite good intentions, many organizations still push harder, demand more, and equate long hours with high performance. The result? Talented people walk away from work they once loved, while leaders feel stuck between delivering results at any cost or failing altogether. Longevity Leadership challenges that paradigm. Drawing on neuroscience, behavioral science, and years of experience in organizational change, Jessica Billiet offers a new model for leadership--one that recognizes performance and well-being are not in conflict but deeply connected. When leaders understand how the brain responds to stress, motivation, and habit, they can create environments where people are energized, innovative, and resilient--without sacrificing results. This book explores the small, often overlooked choices leaders make every day: how they respond to pressure, how they communicate during uncertainty, and how they shape team habits and rhythms. Readers will learn practical, science-backed strategies for reducing burnout, leading through resistance, and building sustainable performance across their teams and organizations. At its core, Longevity Leadership is a call for systemic change. It's about equipping leaders at every level with tools to achieve results without destroying the people who deliver them. Inspiring and deeply practical, this book shows that when leaders honor both performance and mental health, everyone wins.

Longevity Leadership: Building Sustainable Performance Through Science-Backed Strategies

Your Playbook for Designing a Winning Workplace Culture
Most organizations are losing the talent engagement game, and many don’t even know they’re playing it. Gallup’s 2026 State of the Global Workplace shows that only 1 in 5 employees are engaged at work. Game of Engagement offers a fresh solution to what leaders consistently identify as a critical challenge: how to create a workplace culture that sustains employee commitment, energy, motivation, and performance over the long term. Blair Bloomston’s unexpected solution is designing your workplace culture so that everyone wins.
Bloomston’s strategic LIFT Framework is a practical approach to developing a workplace culture in which employee engagement thrives. Inspired by principles of game design, the framework helps leaders intentionally shape four key elements that influence how people think, feel, connect, and contribute at work:
<ul>
<li>Language defines what your culture stands for and whether people believe it.</li>
<li>Influence shapes what work feels like, from outer incentives to inner motivation.</li>
<li>Fellowship determines whether people see each other as teammates or opponents.</li>
<li>Traction takes repeatable actions and transforms them from simple engagement into lasting results.</li>
</ul>
Bloomston draws on vivid, high-stakes stories from her work with world-class sports teams, government organizations, the military, and elite global corporations, demonstrating how the game of engagement plays out in every type of workplace to drive motivation, buy-in, and results.
Your workplace culture already operates like a game of engagement. Become the leader who designs a game people want to play to win.

How Leaders Can Create a Winning Culture at Work

Build a Future-Ready Organization Where Every Employee Can Succeed
Succession planning, while often talked about, remains one of the least successfully implemented leadership practices in an organization’s toolkit. Too often, organizations rely on outdated methods like “successor spotting,” grooming, secret conversations behind closed doors, or focusing only on a select group of “high potentials.” These approaches create bias, limit opportunity, and fail to prepare organizations for the realities of today’s fast-changing workforce. Succession Planning Reimagined introduces developmental succession planning, a modern, inclusive strategy that empowers every employee to grow and contribute to future success.
Through research-based insights and practical tools, you’ll learn how to transform succession planning from a static, murky process into a dynamic, people-centered strategy. You’ll discover the “secret sauce” for success: engaging employees, connecting development to organizational goals, and supporting growth at every stage. Each chapter provides clear steps for:
<ul>
<li>Assessing future needs</li>
<li>Building top-level and next-level plans</li>
<li>Creating measurable progress through continuous refinement</li>
</ul>
Whether you’re an HR leader, OD consultant, L&amp;D professional, or talent strategist, this book equips you to build authentic leadership pipelines that foster equity, readiness, and resilience. By embracing a proactive, developmental approach, you’ll prepare your organization for what’s next while creating a culture in which every employee feels valued and prepared for the future. If you’re ready to move beyond outdated models and design a succession strategy that works for today’s workforce, this guide will show you how to make it happen.

Building Future Readiness at All Levels
