Today's marketplace is shaped by habits of excess that threaten both consumer well-being and the environment, placing overconsumption, materialism, and unsustainable business practices at the heart of contemporary marketing debates. Mindful Consumption and Marketing redefines how markets, organizations, and individuals navigate demand and growth by positioning mindfulness as a transformative lens for theory and practice. Situated at the intersection of consumer behavior, marketing strategy, and sustainable enterprise, it shows how conscious awareness of both internal experiences and external market forces can shape more deliberate and purposeful choices. Krittinee Nuttavuthisit advances a vision of marketing as a moral and relational practice, where value creation balances profitability with consumer well-being, social equity, and ecological responsibility. Through a combination of theory-driven chapters on consumer psychology, sociocultural context, and decision-making, alongside rich case-based illustrations, she charts a forward-looking path for scholars and practitioners seeking more balanced and sustainable market development.

Mindful Consumption and Marketing

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

It's Not Too Late

This book explores the crucial role of "remembering" the fundamental purpose of firms' existence especially in today's context: Meeting individuals' and societal needs. Through seven chapters, the book shed light on the issue of the integration of new technologies within value propositions, by examining their positive impacts on both individual and societal wellbeing. Beginning with an examination of evolving consumers expectations and the core mission of companies, it proceeds through a rigorous analysis of digital technologies impact on wellbeing. Chapters intricately explore themes such as the adoption of mobile health technologies, the role of AI in shaping positive emotions, and the transformative potential of gamification in cultural heritage experiences. Nonetheless, a qualitative examination of sustainable digital business models offering practical insights into fostering wellbeing through technological innovation is also presented. Ultimately, the book culminates in a holistic discussion on integrating digital technologies to enhance collective wellbeing, offering comprehensive insights and conclusive trajectories for future considerations. The book also offers some Case Studies and specialists' perspectives exploring real success stories deriving from firms, managers, scholars and practitioners committed to the mission of positively integrating managing new technologies.

Understand how circular economy principles reshape business strategy and practice. The Circular Economy by Suzanne Smit and Uthayasankar Sivarajah is a practical and theory-informed textbook for postgraduate and final-year undergraduate students studying Circular Economy, Sustainable Business and related business and management courses. Aligned with contemporary module outcomes, it addresses why circular economy thinking is essential for modern business and how organizations can embed sustainability across core functions. The textbook examines how businesses can plan, implement and manage circular transitions by integrating circular economy principles, metrics and decision-making frameworks into everyday business activity. Structured around four interrelated stages, it explores strategic planning, resource organization, leadership and control mechanisms that enable organizations to move from linear to circular models. Real-world examples from Ikea, the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, The Guararapes Group and Flying Tiger demonstrate how circular strategies are applied in practice across industries and regions. This textbook includes: - A four-part framework covering planning, organizing, leading and controlling circular economy initiatives - Clear explanations of circular economy theories, strategies and performance metrics - Application of circular principles to finance, operations, supply chain management and business storytelling - Real-world examples illustrating how organizations manage circular transitions &gt;Whether studying sustainable business or preparing for roles in strategy, operations or sustainability, this textbook equips students with the knowledge and practical insight needed to support and lead circular transformation in organizations.

Practices of tracking and tracing have a long history, yet they are expanding in scale and scope in the digital age with important consequences for the accounts which shape our organizational and everyday lives. At a time when the benefits of traceability for assuring quality, maintaining security, and supporting knowledge-creation must be balanced with needs for privacy and accountability, Economy of Traces delivers an analysis of the implications of traceability for the many accounts we live by. Issues about why we trace, what we trace, and how we trace have become critical, and the book draws upon thinking in accounting, philosophy, and sociology to understand the different facets of traceability, including connectivity, organization, governance, risk, personhood, and knowledge generation. Through these themes, the book locates a key tension at the heart of our digital economy of traces; namely, that the more we are technically able to produce and track traces of human behaviour, the more fragile the traditional organizational forms of human oversight and accountability become. Economy of Traces develops a traceological theory of accounting to understand this tension and how tracking and oversight, while intertwined, are changing their mix in the digital age. In particular, audit trails which have traditionally underpinned human capacities for observation and governance, are being displaced and de-centered. Economy of Traces avoids both wholesale humanist critique of digital technologies on the one hand and uncritical celebration of their augmenting power on the other, in order to understand and theorize the dynamics of change in the organization of traceability and accounts production.

Traceability, Tracking, and the Accounts We Live By

Economy of Traces

Die Wirbelsäule des Erfolgs ist kein weiteres Leadership-Buch mit schönen Worten - es ist ein Führungs- und Governance-Kompass für eine Zeit, &nbsp; &nbsp; in der KI Entscheidungen beschleunigt, Märkte kippen lässt und Kultur überlebenswichtig wird. Wenn du heute führst (oder Führung kontrollierst), &nbsp; &nbsp; reicht "Strategie" nicht mehr. Du brauchst ein stabiles Rückgrat aus Werten, das auch unter Druck hält.&nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
&nbsp; &nbsp; Stell dir dein Unternehmen als lebendigen Organismus vor: Geschäftsführung als Gehirn, Finanzen als Herz, HR als Lunge, IT als Nervensystem, &nbsp; &nbsp; Vertrieb als Blutkreislauf - und Führungskräfte als Wirbelsäule, die alles trägt, verbindet und beweglich hält. Genau diese Körper-Analogie macht komplexe &nbsp; &nbsp; Zusammenhänge plötzlich greifbar: Du erkennst, wo dein System gesund ist, wo es aus dem Takt gerät - und wie du es wieder stabilisierst, &nbsp; &nbsp; bevor Kultur, Vertrauen und Performance zerbrechen. &nbsp;

&nbsp;
&nbsp; &nbsp; Dieses Buch zeigt dir, wie du werteorientierte Führung nicht als Plakat, sondern als mess- und steuerbare Logik im Alltag verankerst - von Top-Management &nbsp; &nbsp; über Middle Management bis zur operativen Ebene und Projektführung. Du bekommst Klarheit darüber, wie du Nachhaltigkeit, ESG und Governance so integrierst, &nbsp; &nbsp; dass sie nicht bremsen, sondern Wettbewerbsvorteile schaffen. Und du lernst, warum in der Ära der KI nicht der "KI-Nerd" gewinnt - sondern die Führung, &nbsp; &nbsp; die Urteilskraft, Ethik, Empathie und Verantwortung systematisch schützt und gleichzeitig Wertschöpfung skaliert. &nbsp;

&nbsp;
Was du aus dem Buch mitnimmst

&nbsp;

- &nbsp; &nbsp;
- Ein Referenzmodell, das Führung, Kultur, Prozesse und Verantwortung in einem Bild zusammenführt - verständlich, merkbar, umsetzbar
- &nbsp; &nbsp;
- Konkrete Schritte, wie du Werte in Entscheidungen, Meetings, Feedback, Zielsysteme und Strukturen übersetzt
- &nbsp; &nbsp;
- Werkzeuge für Transformation, damit Wandel nicht als Chaos endet, sondern als stabiler Prozess mit messbaren Fortschritten
- &nbsp; &nbsp;
- Governance-Perspektive, die Aufsicht, Beirat, Compliance und Ethik als echten Erfolgsfaktor begreifbar macht
- &nbsp;

&nbsp;
&nbsp; &nbsp; Praxisnahe Orientierung, wie du kurzfristige Gewinnlogik stoppst, ohne Leistung zu verlieren und langfristige Wertsteigerung möglich machst. &nbsp;

&nbsp;
&nbsp; &nbsp; Dieses Buch ist für Unternehmer, Geschäftsführer, Vorstände, Bereichsleiter, Teamleiter, Projektverantwortliche, Beiräte und Aufsichtsräte - und für &nbsp; &nbsp; Mitarbeitende, die verstehen wollen, wie das System funktioniert, in dem sie täglich wirken. Denn Organisationen scheitern selten an fehlenden Zielen, &nbsp; &nbsp; sondern an fehlender Stabilität. Wenn Zusammenhänge nicht verstanden werden, optimiert jeder für sich - und das System verliert seine Balance. &nbsp;

&nbsp;
&nbsp; &nbsp; Wenn du willst, dass dein Unternehmen auch unter Druck aufrecht bleibt, brauchst du eine Wirbelsäule, die nicht nur trägt - sondern führt. &nbsp;

Wertorientierte Führung für eine nachhaltige Zukunft

Church Administration and Ethics

Leadership in Global Health outlines the essential leadership principles that transform promising health interventions into global movements, offering a timely and compelling blueprint for leaders seeking to drive lasting, scalable change.Grounded in decades of lessons from global health successes and failures, and illustrated through deeply analyzed, real-world case studies, the book reveals what happens when leadership meets coordinated action. These stories - from the eradication of smallpox and the large-scale delivery of malaria bed nets to the community-based innovations of Ethiopia's Health Extension Program and the lightning-fast COVID-19 vaccine rollout - show how leadership in global health is not one-size-fits-all, but rather dynamic, responsive, and deeply human. In an era where complex health challenges range from emerging pandemics to enduring inequities, the book centers the role of leadership-strategic, adaptive, and collaborative-as the critical engine for scaling health interventions, offering readers not only compelling narratives from the field, but also practical tools and reflections which give the book a forward-looking focus.Building to offer a roadmap for developing the next generation of global health leaders equipped to thrive in multi-sectoral, rapidly evolving environments, it will be essential reading for students, scholars and practitioners across Global Health, Public Health, Leadership and Development Studies.

A Strategic Blueprint for Scalable Change

Leadership in Global Health

From the bestselling author of Looptail comes a remarkable new approach to business and lifeBruce Poon Tip started one of the world’s biggest global travel companies with only a couple of kayaks and a dream. The company, G Adventures, was on track for a record year in January 2020. Then, the world stopped—their income dropped to zero and they had to shut down operations in more than 100 countries. Now the Canadian company is about to crack a billion dollars in annual sales for the first time. How did they survive and ultimately thrive when so many other businesses didn’t?In his long-awaited new book, the award-winning CEO of G Adventures, Bruce Poon Tip, shares lessons about company culture, strategy, and a new approach to succeeding in business and life that he calls “communityship.” Communityship is what happens when companies and the people they employ stop seeing themselves as separate and start acting like they’re part of the world. It’s not just working together—it’s caring about each other. It’s shared responsibility, trust, and connection, whether it’s within a company or a neighbourhood, or with people halfway across the world. It’s about creating value that lifts everyone, not just a handful of people cashing in. Success isn’t just money—it’s the relationships we build, the impact we make, and the good we leave behind. It’s not a business strategy. It’s a way of being.Provocative, inspiring, and groundbreaking, Communityship shows how everyone, from those on the ground floor to those in the C-suites, can thrive in a new world and not only future-proof but century-proof their businesses.

Lessons from the Universe and the Business of Everyone

This new work explores the evolving challenges faced by directors and creditors in both corporate and insolvency contexts. Structured in five parts, it offers a rigorous yet practical examination of key legal developments and their implications for practice and policy. The volume opens with a foundational overview of the legal principles that shape the director-creditor relationship, before turning to the landmark Supreme Court decision in BTI 2014 LLC v Sequana SA and others [2022] UKSC 25. This pivotal case has reshaped the legal landscape, influencing how courts and practitioners approach limited liability, wrongful trading, transactional avoidance, and directors' duties—particularly the creditor duty and the definition of insolvency. Subsequent chapters broaden the scope to address contemporary issues beyond Sequana, many of which are relevant to both solvent and insolvent companies. Topics include fiduciary duties, directors' personal liability, fraudulent and wrongful trading, corporate sustainability, creditor vulnerability, and the growing impact of climate change litigation. The discussion then extends to a global scale, examining how Sequana has influenced legal thinking across jurisdictions including the EU, Australia, the US, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Canada. With a focus on both common law and civil law systems, the book offers a comparative perspective on global efforts to refine insolvency frameworks and harmonise corporate governance standards. Combining detailed legal analysis with practical insights, Directors and Creditors: Law and Liability is an essential resource for legal practitioners, academics, and policymakers navigating the complexities of modern corporate and insolvency law.
