A Process Roadmap for Distinctive Products and Services

Introduces a data-driven framework for measuring governance through a fourteen-component Macro-Governance Index, demonstrating its strong predictive power for national development outcomes and offering practical tools to diagnose governance gaps and guide policy interventions.
Every year, governments borrow trillions, spend billions on development programs, and publish volumes of economic statistics-yet no widely accepted framework exists for answering a deceptively simple question: is governance actually working? Traditional approaches rely on subjective expert assessments or narrowly focused indices that measure inputs rather than outcomes. Macro-Governance Theory proposes that governance can be measured with the same empirical rigor we bring to medicine, engineering, and economics-and that doing so is essential if citizens and policymakers are to hold institutions accountable for results. 

Drawing on 26 years of publicly available data across 170 countries, the book constructs the Macro-Governance Index (MGI)-a fourteen-component composite spanning infrastructure, connectivity, financial inclusion, human capital, security, institutional quality, and economic integration. The MGI correlates with the UN Human Development Index at r = 0.97, and this relationship is not driven by income alone: controlling for GNI, the framework retains substantial independent predictive power, confirming that governance infrastructure-not just wealth-determines whether nations deliver well-being to their citizens. 

The book reveals patterns that conventional measures miss. Novel metrics for credit access and household-level financial reach show that the effective economic gap between the Global North and Sub-Saharan Africa is approximately 70× rather than the 53× that standard income comparisons suggest-a hidden disparity with profound implications for development policy. A governance simulation framework models how investments in one dimension cascade through others, enabling policymakers to identify the highest-leverage interventions for their country's specific development stage. 

Seven detailed case studies-Singapore, Rwanda, Estonia, Botswana, Chile, Costa Rica, and Lebanon-demonstrate how the framework diagnoses governance strengths and weaknesses in practice. An analysis of the ten fastest-rising nations reveals that while successful governance strategies differ radically across political systems, they share common patterns in infrastructure sequencing and institutional development that the MGI captures and quantifies. 

Designed for dual utility, the book serves as an analytical framework for researchers and policymakers and as an accessible assessment tool for citizens through the companion website grademygovernment.com. A full reproducibility dataset covering all 170 countries across seven benchmark years is included, making this not just an argument for governance science but its working prototype.

Soccer has become "big business." The aggregated market value of the first and second division teams from the "Big 5" European Leagues (England, France, Germany, Italy and Spain) is nearly EUR12 billion. Using systematic and anecdotal evidence from the "Big 5" and additional evidence from other European and some of the South American Leagues (Brazil and Argentina), this book explores the development of soccer as the world's most important team sport and addresses competitive balance across the a large number of leagues. The book also provides the reader with a thorough understanding of the market for players, coaches and referees as well as the demand for soccer, both on TV, at the gate, and in the betting office. Finally, the economic implications of pertinent recent problems, such as hooliganism and racism, are addressed.

Most of the discussion about player salaries, head coach dismissals, stadium subsidies, ticket prices and TV contracts is not very well informed and is based on prejudices. Assembling and interpreting the relevant and available information from an economic viewpoint provides the reader with a fresh new perspective on those subjects. Econometric evidence is presented in the form of graphs and figures instead of regression coefficients and is supplemented by anecdotal evidence. "Economic jargon" will be limited to a minimum in order to give readers a more intuitive understanding of the material.

Conquering the Pitch

In the vein of What Got You Here Won’t Get You There, a practical guide to help young professionals recognize the ideals and subconscious behaviors holding them back in their careers.Many ambitious young professionals today find themselves disengaged and disillusioned. Accustomed to steady progress and consistent recognition, they now feel stuck, ineffective, and overlooked. They aren’t sure whether the problem lies within themselves, their managers, or the capitalist system. While these challenges are unique to the early career stage, they are incredibly common. Pino G. Audia, John A. Byrne, and Marshall Goldsmith have seen this pattern repeatedly—among MBA students, new managers, consultants, and analysts; in both corporations and startups; across industries and continents.The cause is neither bumbling managers nor broken pipelines, they argue. It’s the “idealism paradox,” where even the smartest, most hard-working people become trapped by their own beliefs. The qualities that made them so promising—faith in hard work, honesty, and fairness—can also blind them to the realities of power, perception, and persuasion within organizations. But you don’t have to abandon your ideals to succeed; you need to learn how to pursue them effectively.Work IQ teaches young workers how to recognize when their expectations and assumptions are undermining their progress—and how to adapt their behavior without losing their integrity or sense of purpose. It identifies common misconceptions and explains: <ul><li>Why hard work isn’t enough;</li><li>Why you can’t expect your manager to look out for your best interests;</li><li>Why people pleasing derails progress;</li><li>Why the impulse to quit is usually about purpose, not the job itself;</li><li>And more.</li></ul> Drawing on focus groups, interviews, surveys, and academic research—as well as decades of coaching and teaching young professionals—Work IQ helps young employees get ahead while remaining true to their authentic selves. It is an essential playbook to help the next generation overcome their unique challenges, achieve success, make a difference, and find meaning, purpose, and joy along the way.This is the go-to guide for success at work, revealing:Insights for a New Generation: Work IQ is the essential guide for young professionals who feel disengaged, stuck, and unrecognized in their careers—and aren’t sure why.The Cause of Career Stagnancy: The authors explain how the qualities that have made today’s young professionals so promising and ensured their past success can unintentionally hinder their progress today, what they call the “idealism paradox.”Myths of the Workplace: The authors debunk widespread misconceptions—such as expecting hard work to speak for itself or that managers will behave like teachers—revealing the gap between our assumptions about workplaces and how they actually operate.Secrets to Success: Work IQ breaks down what really contributes to success in the workplace and offers guidance on how to adjust behavior without compromising personal integrity or purpose.

How to Survive and Monetize Volatility in the World That Won't Settle Down

The Reinvention Advantage

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.
