Inner Excellence

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.

 In today’s polarising world, businesses frequently face competing demands from across the political spectrum. Progressives are pushing companies to minimise environmental footprints and enhance diversity, equity and inclusion, while conservative activists are labelling those initiatives as “woke” and urging executives to focus solely on profit maximisation.&nbsp;
 How should corporate leaders navigate this volatile landscape? 
 Purposeful Capitalism
 charts a path forward, centred on the idea of profitable problem-solving. Drawing on lessons from fourteen well-known companies across industries and countries, this book argues that businesses must promote human progress by tackling societal challenges. This requires harnessing the best elements of capitalism, including the ability to attract investment and motivate people through financial rewards. Profit, when it stems from value-creating activities rather than a myopic obsession with financial engineering, should be celebrated, not vilified.&nbsp;
 Engaging and insightful, the book introduces a new framework — the Sustainability Flywheel — which explores how strategy, business models, and sustainability factors interact to create financial value. It shows that good intentions don’t guarantee commercial success. Instead, business leaders must focus on material issues aligned with their strategy and competitive advantage. The result is a more nuanced perspective that moves beyond dogmatic debates about sustainability and capitalism.
 Offering practical guidance for business leaders and investors, 
 Purposeful Capitalism
 is vital reading for anyone interested in improving our economic system and building a flourishing society.

AI-Powered Sustainability

This book examines policy interventions ranging from those related to finance and tenure to building materials and processes. Urbanization is growing in both developed and developing countries. The proportion of the world’s urban population is expected to increase to about 57% by 2050, and the share of Africa's urban population is project to increase to 60% by the same year. As a result of this phenomenal growth in urban population, urbanization and urban poverty have begun to dominate the development discourse again after years of focusing on rural development.
Housing is a crucial issue for the urban poor, who are often concentrated in informal settlements that often do not have sufficient access to infrastructure, health, and education services. The urban poor overwhelmingly lack land to build their own houses or access to financing that would allow them to purchase or build homes. Furthermore, housing provision has largely fallen to central governments, and policy has largely overlooked the capacity of the urban poor—as individuals and communities—to provide housing for themselves.
This book engages these challenges and assumptions, offering insight into political, economic, environmental, and financial frameworks that can help facilitate adequate housing options. Drawing on examples from 14 case studies across sub-Saharan Africa, these contributions center the urban poor in initiatives to develop housing infrastructure, offering lessons for researchers and governments looking to address an ever-escalating housing crisis.
