Evolution, Challenges, and Prospects

The Cuban Tourism Industry

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

Traditionally, the presence of pornography in American society has been mediated by two primary factors: legal restrictions and the relatively high cost of the product. The degree of legal restrictions on adult material has varied from era to era and community to community, but the porn premium has remained relatively constant. Given this, these should be heady days for adult business owners. Thanks to the Internet, distribution costs are virtually nil and even the most hardcore content is easily accessible in the smallest coastal hamlet and most rural farmhouse in America. Adult industry balance sheets should be bulging with profit. But in reality, far from it. The World Wide Web has completely eradicated both the legal restrictions and premium cost that used to govern adult industry economics. To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge thousands of eager subscribers premium prices. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes with a detailed analysis of the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button.Accessible to the general reader, this book will appeal to those who want to know more about the adult entertainment industry in America and will prove useful reading for students and researchers involved with a wide variety of academic disciplines including business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

The Pornography Business

Leading experts on greenwashing offer a playbook for achieving competitive advantage by combatting misleading claims and building trust. Greenwashing has reached epidemic proportions, and consumer confidence in business sustainability commitments is falling. Those most affected by greenwashing are genuine green firms, and companies truly committed to sustainability goals can find it hard to communicate their commitments and distinguish themselves in this sea of greenwash. These companies need to confront their rivals head on to win the trust of stakeholders. From Greenwash to Green Trust offers a new paradigm for how to gain and maintain competitive advantage in a world of exaggerated green claims. &nbsp;&nbsp;Building on more than a decade of research on greenwashing, Tom Lyon and Wren Montgomery offer a three-step approach for companies determined to rise above their greenwashing competitors:&nbsp;&nbsp; <ul> 	<li> 		Understand why trust has been broken: First, learn how greenwashing works, and hurts, in today's world.&nbsp;&nbsp; 	</li> 	<li> 		Build trust: Then, look in the mirror, acknowledge your own shortcomings, and substantiate your company's commitment to sustainability goals. 	</li> 	<li> 		Leverage trust: Finally, create powerful relationships to outcompete greenwashers and turn integrity into lasting advantage. 	</li> </ul> In the end, the message of From Greenwash to Green Trust is a positive one. While there are plenty of businesses doing the "right" thing on sustainability, with this novel strategic approach to beating greenwashing, businesses can center transparency and trust—to restore consumer confidence and support rapid growth.

How Honest Firms Win in a World of Spin

From Greenwash to Green Trust

The need for resilience at organisational, department and individual level has never been greater. Geopolitical conflict, climate change, supply chain disruption and political instability are just a handful of the risks that leaders must mitigate to ensure stable business operation and optimum effectiveness. Project resilience refers to the ability of a project or initiative to anticipate, adapt and recover from unexpected challenges, disruptions or uncertainties. It involves the capacity to withstand shocks, maintain functionality in the face of adversity, and quickly recover to a stable state. Resilient projects underpin resilient organisations; a resilient organisation produces sustainable competitive advantage. This book offers a structured framework - the Project Resilience Maturity Model - to assess and enhance resilience in organisations. The authors begin by considering different approaches to project resilience, and by identifying potential tensions therein. In the second part, methods of sustaining project resilience are examined, focusing on the perspective of the project manager, personal responsibility and the role of leadership. The latter part of the textbook provides practical tools and applications to assess and enhance project resilience. Throughout, the authors employ a pedagogical framework designed to ensure maximum effectiveness for students and practitioners. Chapters are organised to reflect the evolution of project resilience maturity, moving from early-stage compliance to strategic integration and transformative resilience. Concepts are introduced in a sequential order that builds on what has come before, with Key Takeaways summarising each chapter's most critical points. Fictional case studies illustrate how topics can be been implemented in a complex project management setting, while Key and Dormant Tensions highlight potential blind spots. Demystifying complex topics without sacrificing scholarly rigour, Project Resilience provides you with a strategic approach to ensuring projects are well-equipped to withstand uncertainties and adapt to dynamic conditions. It is the perfect textbook to support advanced Project Management and Organisational Resilience courses, and to provide practical methods for leading responsible organisations.

Navigating Tensions from Control to Transformation

Project Resilience

A guide to organizational transformation targeting the country's trillion-dollar stagnancy problem-the "frozen middle" of corporate America-and offering strategies to overcome bureaucratic setbacks that hinder innovation, profit, and fulfillment Corporate America is stuck. Initiatives are stalling out, strategic plans are fizzling, and even the most promising innovations get buried under bureaucracy. Worse still, profit and employee satisfaction are trending lower. Sound familiar? This is the impact of the "frozen middle"-the critical layer of management caught between high-level leadership's vision and frontline employees' execution. That corporate paralysis traps passionate managers in inertia and stymies senior leadership. And every year it's costing companies billions. As experts in organizational transformation, Jimmy Leppert and Justin Wasserman have spent their careers figuring out how to thaw the frozen middle. Their consulting firm, Empactful Advisors, has led major organizations-including Chevron, Merck, and the Department of Defense-to generate more than $5 billion in cost savings and revenue growth. The key to their success comes from aligning senior leadership and middle management, using empathy and practical frameworks to illuminate the blocks that both sides face, and showing how they can shift from utter disconnect to collaborative goal setting that helps all parties-as well as the company-hit their targets. In Thaw, Leppert and Wasserman share their field-tested methods for turning strategic goals into tangible outcomes. Along the way, they offer a road map for employees at all levels to learn how to move through the bottlenecks that hold their organizations back and facilitate meaningful change. Middle managers will be empowered to unlock stalled careers, and senior leaders will learn how to galvanize their workforce and achieve bold, accelerated change. In the age of AI, a playbook for improving-and celebrating-human contribution is more essential than ever. Sharp, confident, and timely, Thaw is poised to be the definitive book on ending organizational paralysis and unlocking true potential.

Strategic shifts don't wait-and neither can you. Leading a strategic shift is not business as usual, and it requires more than leadership as usual. In Leading Strategic Shifts, New York Times-bestselling author and strategic leadership advisor Dr. Vince Molinaro shows senior leaders and leadership teams how to turn strategy into action and change into progress when priorities change overnight. This book explores what it truly takes to lead a strategic shift-a deliberate change in a company's direction, organization, and the way leaders lead-and why such moments rapidly raise expectations. Drawing on more than two decades of experience as an executive, advisor, and researcher, and on the research behind his books The Leadership Contract, Accountable Leaders, and Community of Leaders, Molinaro distills lessons from advising and leading dozens of major transformations, offering practical, proven guidance for leaders who are responsible for making strategy real. Most leaders experience strategic shifts as chaos: Business models change, teams are reshaped, and scrutiny rises, even as results still matter. The best leaders see these moments as defining opportunities to elevate performance and grow. In this book, you'll learn what strategic shifts are and how they challenge leaders, then apply what you've learned through nine make-or-break behaviors that determine whether a shift succeeds or stalls. Each concise chapter combines real stories from the field with research, practical strategies, checklists, and gut-check questions that you can use immediately. For frontline, mid-level, and senior leaders who must deliver results amid constant change, Leading Strategic Shifts provides a clear, practical framework when direction, priorities, and expectations are in flux. Dr. Vince Molinaro reveals what effective leaders like yourself need to do to build trust, sharpen focus, and drive follow-through, so you don't just respond to strategic shifts-you actively shape them.

Lead a business that runs without you and outlasts you. Dan Martell's Buy Back Your Time gave entrepreneurs the blueprint to get unstuck and reclaim their freedom. Now he's back with the lesson that separates founders who scale from founders who stall: learning to let go - and why doing it right changes everything. Let Go to Grow is the book every ambitious leader needs but won't see coming. The entrepreneurs who build great companies without burning out don't win because the market cooperates or their strategy is perfect. They win because they stop white-knuckling their business. Most founders respond to pressure the only way they know how: push harder, do more. Martell shows you why that kills your potential and why real leverage starts the moment you decide to change yourself before you change the business. His three levels of letting go rewire how you lead yourself, your team, and your company so it scales without you carrying it. In this book, you'll discover how to become a "full-spectrum leader," someone who leads with calm authority, holds high standards, and builds systems that grow beyond them. You'll learn:the mindset shift that turns your team into "owners" who chase outcomes and not paychecks,how to extend trust at scale and watch your people rise to meet it,how to embed culture so deep your team carries it forward without you in the room, anda full toolkit of frameworks to drive excellence at every level.You cannot grow a company you refuse to release. And you cannot release it until you grow. Dan Martell shows you how to do both at once. Let go without losing control, build a company where people think like owners, and lead a movement that scales with or without you in the driver's seat. Let Go to Grow is the next evolution. It starts with you.
