This Handbook marks a turning point for organizational institutionalism. Providing both wayfinding conceptual essays and detailed studies of values and emotions, this collection will be required reading for institutional scholars wishing to advance their understanding of these key issues.”
—Thomas B. Lawrence, Professor of Strategy, Saïd Business School, University of Oxford, UK
In the face of escalating political crises and institutional upheavals, leaders are encountering unprecedented challenges and uncertainty daily. Understanding how emotions and values shape societies is now more crucial than ever. Emotions play a significant role in influencing engagement and resistance towards established norms and values, while values govern emotional reactions, mobilize actions, and strengthen institutional work and social connections. This open-access handbook offers a comprehensive interplay between emotions and values within organizational institutionalism, highlighting their essential roles in shaping organizational dynamics and evolution of organizational life. Drawing upon cutting-edge research, the handbook examines how emotions and values emerges within institutions, interact, and operate as significant drivers of action and practice across various organizational contexts. &nbsp;
Gry Espedal is a Professor at VID Specialized University, Norway. She has published extensively on topics such as values work, institutional logics, and the interplay between narratives, values, practices, and emotions.&nbsp;
Trish Ruebottom is an Associate Professor at McMaster University’s DeGroote School of Business, Canada. She focuses on social innovation, stigma, moral emotions, and their impacts on entrepreneurship, especially concerning marginalized industries.&nbsp;
Marta Struminska-Kutra is a Professor at both VID Specialized University and Kozminski University, Poland. She investigates social and sustainable innovation, governance of sustainable transitions, and organizational learning in public administration.&nbsp;
Jose Bento da Silva is an Associate Professor at Warwick Business School, UK. He examines how concepts like ambiguity and temporality enhance our understanding of social and institutional order through historical and ethnographic studies.&nbsp;
Douglas Creed is Professor Emeritus at the University of Rhode Island, USA, and a fellow at the University of Melbourne, Australia. He researches identity and embodiment within institutional processes and the dynamics of contested institutional change.

Gudang Garam follows the life of Gudang Garam founder Surya Wonowidjoyo's family through his early years, beginning in the early 1920s when his family moved from China Fuzhou to Indonesia, and traces his life from utter poverty as an Indonesian diaspora to founding the cigarette factory in Indonesia in the 1980s. In a parallel story, we follow the life of a young beautiful ballerina- Lelly, who eventually becomes the third wife of Surya in a romantic love story.

Feeding Hope

As the tech billionaires dominate the headlines, this groundbreaking book reveals the overlooked yet formidable influence of multi-generational family wealth on the global economy. It provides essential insights into the largest wealth transfer in human history-as 2% of the global population inherits vast fortunes over the next 25 years-revealing how this tsunami of inherited capital will transform investment landscapes, industrial financing, and potentially undermine nation-state autonomy.Drawing from extensive research and industry expertise, David Molian charts the meteoric rise of ultra-wealthy dynasties whose collective impact rivals-and may outlast-Silicon Valley's tech titans. It charts the historical patterns behind industry-dominating family businesses and their evolution into business dynasties, and how the coming $30+ trillion wealth transfer will reshape global finance, investment, and economic development. In stagnating economic times, the search for growth and prosperity dominates government agendas throughout the world. The evidence suggests that family businesses outpace their peers. Through numerous case histories and industry analyses this book explains why, and how harnessing and supporting their success may be a critical part of regenerating national economies. It also explains the forces-chiefly the components of globalism-that have propelled family wealth in the eastern hemisphere in the last half-century.Essential reading for anyone seeking to understand where true economic power lies in the 21st century, the book is specifically of interest to professionals involved in family business, including private banks, family offices, family consultants, law firms and large accountancy practices.

Why is a circular economy important for business students to know? What can businesses do to become more circular? How can businesses manage circular transitions and integrate better and sustainable practices into their processes? The Circular Economy is the textbook postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students need to address these questions while studying on Circular Economy and Sustainable Business courses. This textbook looks at integrating circular economy principles and metrics within key aspects of business including: storytelling, financial planning and reporting, operations and supply chain management all within four parts: - Part 1 - Planning: A Strategic Approach to Circular Economy - Part 2 - Organising: Mobilising resources and Coordinating Core Activities - Part 3 - Leading: Creating Enablers and Favourable System Conditions &gt;As more companies work to become more sustainable, specific planning, measuring and strategies will need to be embedded to ensure a smooth transition. Students studying circular economy will need to know the theories, and will also need to know how to apply theory into practice within the workplace. With this textbook, understand the key theories, strategies and applications of circular economy and how to manage circular transitions within an organization's core functions, through various real-world examples from Ikea, Ellen MacArthur Foundation, The Guararapes Group and Flying Tiger.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of practical cutting and packing problems, presenting practical algorithms for solving these problems from the perspective of combinatorial optimization. It also discusses the geometric properties and tools for cutting and packing problems.&nbsp; Problems of cutting and packing objects have been extensively studied for many years because of the numerous real-world applications—for instance, in the clothing, logistics, manufacturing, and material industries. They can be classified in three ways according to their dimensions: The one-dimensional problem is the most basic category of problems including knapsack problems, bin packing problems, and cutting stock problems. The two-dimensional geometric problems include rectangle packing problems, circle packing problems, and polygon packing problems. The three-dimensional problem is the most difficult category and has applications in container loading, cargo and warehouse management and so forth. Most of these variants are NP-hard, since they contain as a special case the knapsack problem or the bin packing problem, which are already known to be NP-hard. Therefore, heuristics and metaheuristics are essential for designing practical algorithms for these problems. In addition to practical algorithms for solving a wide variety of cutting and packing problems, the book also considers another feature of cutting and packing problems: the need to develop powerful geometric tools to handle the wide variety and complexity of shapes that need to be packed.
