Creating Sustainable Value In Social Enterprises: Stories Of Social Innovation

An expert-led, practical guide to management that redefines what it means to lead people with purpose and impact.

The Good Boss Project

In this inspiring book, a real-world entrepreneur shares the hard-won lessons from a journey that spans from selling frozen food in pub car parks to building a £40-million industry leader. This isn't a book about frantic growth or "winging it" through the next deal; it's a tactical guide for entrepreneurs and managers who are tired of carrying the pressure alone. By shifting from a "heroic" mindset to one of clarity and confidence, you will learn how to build a business that is resilient from the inside out, ensuring that your progress no longer comes at the expense of your family, your values - or your sanity. True sustainability is found in a simple, non-negotiable alignment:&nbsp;the Win-Win-Win. When you win as a leader by regaining control and stability, your team wins through clear purpose and trust, which ultimately ensures your customers win through reliable, consistent value. Brian Donne provides a "back-room coach" experience, utilizing "Performance Levers" and "the Mushy Ps" - from Purpose to Profit - to help you master the fundamentals that most businesses ignore. It's time to stop settling for growth that feels like firefighting and start building your "Champions League" victory. Discover how to make a decent profit, decently, and finally achieve the ultimate win: a successful business that grants you the freedom to live life on your terms.

Strategic Sports Event Management

A ground-breaking framework that redefines price formation as the structural foundation of sustainability, The Price of Sustainability argues that 'true pricing' can restore long-term and inclusive economic viability. Through grounding in rigorous fieldwork, financial analysis, and the economic insights of Rudolf Steiner, this book exposes the reality behind today's pricing; that they are systematically falsified and don't reflect the reality of sustaining labour, nature and capital. To counter this, Andrillon introduces the concept of true pricing as a diagnostic framework, discerning when a price reflects viability, and when it conceals impending collapse. In the opening chapters, the author guides you through both the contemporary failure of sustainable development and the shortcomings of economic approaches to this issue. Transitioning from diagnosis to construction, Chapter 4 formalizes the concept of a "true price"; it argues that a price is only true if it enables the full reproduction of labour, nature, and capital across time. The following chapters present the operational core of this framework, illustrating how it can be used across sectors as a practical evaluative method. Bridging political economy, sustainability science, and economic theory while offering a highly original contribution to debates on degrowth, post-capitalism, and ecological transition, this innovative text is the perfect companion for undergraduate students, postgraduate students, scholars and policy-makers working at the intersection of sustainability, political economy, ecological economics, development studies, and accounting.

Rethinking Pricing for a Viable Economy

The Price of Sustainability

A lesson-packed success story for the twenty-first century, from a ninth-generation Kentuckian who imported the Silicon Valley playbook to the heartland, revealing how the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied anywhere, and even to our most stubborn industries. In his case: trash. When Nate Morris decided to build a business, he wasn’t looking to disrupt—he was looking for a problem to solve. Morris believed that the bigger the problem, the more the market would reward him for solving it. And one of the biggest problems, he came to believe, was one that every person, business, and community dealt with on a daily basis, but which was often overlooked: waste. American Trash is the moving story of how a ninth-generation Kentuckian—a boy who grew up being called “white trash”—applied the innovative thinking we associate with Silicon Valley startups to the ancient problem of waste. Raised on the scrappy resourcefulness of his grandfather, president of their local autoworkers’ union, Morris built Rubicon, a waste management company powered by digital technology. Unlike the bloated industry titans of yesterday, Rubicon was asset light: It wouldn’t own landfills, so it would be free of the perverse incentive to fill the land with chemical-laden trash, and it wouldn’t own trucks, so it would support “mom and pop” hauler businesses. Most important, it would be based in Georgia and Kentucky, thousands of miles from the near-sighted culture of Silicon Valley. In telling his story, Morris shows how he combined the great tradition of American entrepreneurship with the lessons of the digital economy—and did it far from the coastal bastions of the technology elite. The result is a blueprint for those seeking to tackle our biggest challenges with creative, free-market solutions.

The Feral MBA

Scale your business and gain the freedom you dreamed of as a founder. Chuck is exhausted. The company he founded has a superior product and was gaining traction. Now, sales are slipping, his executive team is falling apart, and he can't remember the last time he made it home for dinner. How long can this last? But then Chuck meets the right mentor. Harper owns a bar that doesn't seem special, but beneath the surface it is just one piece of a wealth-producing empire. Harp has cracked the code for scaling businesses without sacrificing everything else in life. More than a modest bartender, Harp is about to share the secret to his success.

Critical University Studies

How the cult of capitalism reshaped the American university--and hollowed it out from within.Over the past several decades, American universities have been remade as engines of entrepreneurial ambition. Technology transfer offices, business incubators, pitch competitions, innovation hubs, and leadership centers now sit at the heart of campus life, radically altering how institutions describe their purpose, structure curricula, and imagine student success. The Start-Up Factory argues that this shift has come at a steep cost.James Rushing Daniel traces the rise of entrepreneurialism in higher education and shows how universities came to embrace the figure of the founder as both ideal and benefactor. Business leaders--many of them major donors--are celebrated as singular visionaries, their values imported into academic life and framed as models for intellectual work. This reverence, Daniel argues, has narrowed the university's sense of public responsibility for distorted academics, and transformed institutions into finishing schools for aspiring entrepreneurs. Moving across policy and historical documents, institutional rhetoric, teaching materials, site visits, and interviews, The Start-Up Factory documents how entrepreneurial thinking has reshaped the pedagogy, culture, and mission of the American university.The consequences of this entrepreneurial focus extend far beyond campuses. By promoting the myth of the self-made billionaire, universities help legitimize extreme inequality and normalize forms of power that undermine democratic life. At a moment of deep institutional crisis, when the influence of the billionaire class on college campuses is increasingly absolute and the future of higher education is uncertain, The Start-Up Factory offers a clear-eyed account of how universities arrived here--and why reclaiming their autonomy has become an urgent task.
