Marshall D: Accounting: What the Numbers
Mean: 2027 Release

Accounting: What the Numbers Mean: 2027 Release

Are digital technologies really a silver bullet for development in the Global South?


Digital technologies are supposed to solve the challenges of climate change, projected population growth, land conflicts and food insecurity, especially in rural areas. Yet NGOs, government institutions, and private companies are increasingly adopting a trial-and-error approach as they recognize the limitations of transferring Western science and technologies to the global South.
 
This book presents the ambivalent practices and implications of digital pilot projects which aim to 'develop' both farming communities and locally adapted innovations in East Africa. Inspired by laboratory ethnographies in Science and Technology Studies, it explores the practices of testing and developing digital technologies in rural Tanzania. The multi-sited ethnography, which takes in agricultural fairs, conferences, documents, online courses, tech hubs, project offices, villages and fields, centres on three case studies, namely DAST (a digital land-formalisation tool), STAS (an AI system for agricultural productivity) and iPlus (an e-extension tool). Rather than viewing these technologies simply as welcome tools to promote connectivity, empowerment and increased production - as commonly advanced in development policy - this book foregrounds the (un)intended consequences of the planning, set-up, maintenance and results of digital pilot projects. Against the backdrop of conflicting logics between testing technologies and developing Tanzanian agriculture through them, this book considers their (un)predictable impacts on new actors, the character of development and the trial communities in rural Tanzania.

In 2007, as the first iPhone launched, I was a young retail leader on the front lines of what would become one of the most transformative technological revolutions in history. Customers waited for hours to secure their new device only to return days later furious that networks had failed under unprecedented demand. Inside stores, no answers were quick or easy. There was pressure, confusion, and a leadership playbook that no longer seemed to work. It was an inflection point not just for technology, but for leadership. The Hope Advantage begins in this moment and expands to confront the reality every leader now faces. No longer is change episodic; it is constant, exponential, and it impacts every area of life. The conditions once described as volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous are no longer exceptions to the rule; they are the operating environment. But the change itself is not the problem. We've lost the belief in our ability to shape what comes next. When you believe a better future is possible, that you have the power to help create it, and that you don't need a perfect plan to start, this is hope--a practical leadership framework built on the three interconnected disciplines of Direction, Ownership, and Movement. Blending behavioral science, leadership philosophy, and lived executive experience, The Hope Advantage introduces a distinct and timely thesis that belief, not strategy, is the primary hurdle to change. It offers leaders not just a new way to think, but a practical framework immediately applicable to the transformations they're already implementing.

Navigating Ambiguity to Create L&amp;D Solutions
Being a learning designer means solving problems without a playbook. Sometimes you’re handed a vague request. Other times, you notice a performance gap, a broken workflow, or a missed opportunity and feel driven to create something new. But what if you’re not sure how to start, what to build, or whether it will even work?
Getting Unstuck in Learning Design is your practical guide for those gray areas where many learning designers stall. You will learn to navigate ambiguity and shift priorities seamlessly in your day-to-day learning design work. Expert learning experience designer Melissa Milloway leads you through how to:
<ul><li>Find your spark and turn it into momentum.</li>
<li>Identify the right problem.</li>
<li>Determine where to focus your time and energy.</li>
<li>Use iterative design to test ideas, build credibility, and earn buy-in over time.</li>
</ul>
Whether you’re stuck on a specific project, stuck in routines that no longer serve you, or stuck wondering how to grow in your role, Milloway offers methods to create clarity and momentum. This book will help you think and act like a designer—more curious, adaptive, and willing to move forward before all the details are clear.

Simple, Sound Measurement for Real-World Learning
Are you an L&amp;D practitioner who is avoiding measurement, analytics, and reporting because it all seems too complex, too time-consuming—or just plain intimidating? Most new L&amp;D practitioners know how valuable measurement is, but few know how to do it well or how to make sure the results matter to decision makers. In Measurement Simplified, David Vance and Peggy Parskey cut to the heart of the matter, sharing their expertise with beginners—and anyone who needs a no-nonsense refresher. They explain:
<ul>
<li>How measurement works</li>
<li>Why it’s worth the investment</li>
<li>How to do it efficiently and effectively</li>
</ul>
They walk through the most valuable measures at the course level and the department level, making sure to explain each concept in a way that is accessible and useful for novices. And they make the case for implementing smart measurement and reporting processes that will help your learning function run more like a business.
A fast and friendly on-ramp to the topic, Measurement Simplified still maintains the key insights of Vance and Parskey’s comprehensive classic, Measurement Demystified. This compact new guide offers all the knowledge and tools you need to make practical, evidence-based decisions, ensuring that you measure what matters and elevate the role of learning in your organization.

What do L&amp;D professionals and hip-hop artists have in common? Both face skeptical, diverse audiences and operate within strict time constraints in environments that are full of distractions. In Facilitation in VERSE, learning strategist Tekeisha Zimmerman shares a framework to address those challenges in five stages: Vibe, Engage, Reveal, Spin, and End. The framework draws upon proven &nbsp;techniques to engage learners inspired by hip-hop, including:
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Call and response</li>
<li>Storytelling for emotional connection</li>
<li>Repetition</li>
<li>Intentional language</li>
<li>Memorable takeaways</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
The VERSE framework directly addresses challenges learning designers and facilitators face every day, including high resistance and pressure to demonstrate measurable behavior change. The book is packed with practical templates, decision matrices, sample scripts, and self-assessments to help instructional designers and facilitators implement the framework. Readers also receive free access to an AI-powered coach that lets them practice applying VERSE in real time, working through scenarios and refining their approach whenever they need it—long after finishing the book.
&nbsp;
The best trainers and hip-hop artists know that connection is what makes a message work. Facilitation in VERSE shows you how to create learning experiences that resonate in the moment and leave a lasting impression.

In 1977, The Economist coined the term "Dutch disease" to describe the damage to the real economy when wealth derives from resource exports rather than productive work. On April 1, 1978, the Second Amendment to the IMF's Articles of Agreement came into force, ending gold's monetary role within the IMF system and consolidating the transition to pure fiat money. With "money" no longer backed by anything real, the alchemists' dream of a "Philosopher's Stone"--the ability to create seemingly limitless wealth out of nothing--appeared to have been realized. But while real wealth produced by human labor is finite, fiat money creation is not subject to the same physical constraint. The result was a new and far more powerful variant of Dutch disease: the Philosopher's Stone Disease. The Money Powers' financialization of economies and imposition of neoliberalism increasingly privileged finance over production. Over the next four decades, the consequences extended beyond economics, eroding the cultural and civilizational heritage and traditions of large swaths of the global population. The socioeconomic impact of this pure fiat-money regime, globally and within the United States, has been an across-the-board deterioration, while its benefits accrued overwhelmingly to less than 0.01 percent of the population. Yet creating money cannot create the real goods it commands. The system therefore depends upon a steady external supply of real goods and the recycling of part of the resulting surpluses into U.S. financial assets. Energy revenues from West Asia have been key to sustaining it. A resurgent Iran thus posed an existential threat to the UK-established and U.S.-dominated oil order. Sanctions, assassinations, proxy wars, color revolutions, terrorist attacks and mass psychological manipulation followed, but failed to achieve their objective. If Iran emerges victorious from the war launched against it in 2026 and breaks U.S. control over the oil-rich Levant, the petrodollar recycling system will suffer a massive blow, accelerating withdrawal from U.S. Treasuries. The dilemma is stark: financial dominance ultimately requires real power to enforce it, while the Philosopher's Stone Disease has hollowed out the productive and military foundations of that power. Why the West Can't Recover: The Philosopher's Stone Disease explains why there may be no way back.

Great leaders aren't shaped by a title. They're shaped by a moment. A moment that changes not just what they do, but how they lead. This is THE UNLOCK MOMENT. Drawing on his own leadership journey, executive coach and podcast host Dr. Gary Crotaz explores the inner shift that separates outward success from truly grounded leadership. Interweaving stories from CEOs, entrepreneurs, athletes, and the many thinkers he has coached, Gary offers a clear, human framework for recognizing the moments that make us who we are. At the heart of The Unlock Moment: The Inner Shift That Changes How You Lead are five essential Keys--Self, Trust, Presence, Growth, and Impact--that shape how real innovators think, decide, and lead when it matters most. By cutting through the ambiguity to make decisions with conviction, you will find your leadership aplomb and learn to lead in a way that is authentic, not performative. This is not a book about getting people to follow you. It's a book about becoming the kind of leader people choose to follow . . . and the moments that unlock how you lead.

What employers must know about FMLA leave for both on-site and remote workers The federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) helps workers balance the demands of work, family, and personal care. But for employers, knowing how to apply this law fairly and legally can be difficult--especially when it comes to determining workers' eligibility for different types of leave, tracking intermittent leave, and completing the proper paperwork. What's more, related and sometimes overlapping workers' compensation statutes and state leave laws create complexity, such that any misstep can result in frustration for both managers and employees. This book provides answers--in plain English--to every employer's questions about the FMLA. It offers detailed information, sample forms, checklists, and other tools to help company managers and human resources personnel figure out: <ul> <li>who is eligible for leave</li> <li>what types of leave are covered</li> <li>how much leave individual employees may take, and</li> <li>how to comply with notice and other paperwork requirements.</li> </ul> This indispensable guide, from experienced employment law attorneys, has already helped thousands of companies learn how to respect employees' rights while simultaneously protecting their business interests. The 8th edition includes changes to state family and medical leave laws and discussion of how they intersect with the FMLA.
