Effective strategic management education and practice must focus on the whole team rather than the individual - this book guides readers towards collaborative excellence in strategizing and decision-making by taking such an approach.Organized into four interlinked parts, this book offers readers the conceptual resources to critically rethink how strategic leadership capability can and should be developed in top management teams, along with practical interventions to implement this vision. Each chapter begins with a clear justification of its importance, asserting alignment and relevance. By laying out the objectives and drawing connections between chapters, teams are better positioned to see both the individual trees and the overarching forest of strategic management. A myriad of field-based insights and team-focused examples serve as a launchpad for collaborative discussions grounded in real-world dynamics. Readers will learn how to implement strategic management principles effectively, maximizing both individual and collective potential.With chapters supporting a modular executive education program, this exciting new title will also be a valuable resource for MBA students, advanced undergraduates, future business leaders, consultants, and reflective practitioners.The work is fully supported by a variety of online resources including downloadable participant handouts and templates for key exercises, together with an adaptable core slide deck.

China Perspectives

This book systematically examines how the digitalization of global value chains (GVCs) has driven the high-quality development of China's manufacturing industry. It reveals the intrinsic mechanisms and pathways through which digital technologies reshape the international division of labor and promote industrial upgrading.Integrating theory with empirical analysis, the book establishes an innovative measurement framework for GVC digitalization. Using data from China's manufacturing sectors from 2000 to 2020, the book evaluates the quality of industrial development across five dimensions: innovation, coordination, green development, openness, and sharing. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the characteristics, challenges, and multidimensional impacts of Chinese manufacturing's integration into digital GVCs. Using rigorous econometric models, the study demonstrates that digitalization primarily advances high-quality manufacturing development through three channels: reducing transaction costs, fostering technological innovation, and optimizing resource allocation. Finally, the book proposes strategic pathways and policy implications targeted to China's manufacturing industry, offering a solid theoretical foundation and decision-making reference for achieving value chain upgrading and structural optimization in the digital era.This book will be valuable for scholars and policymakers in the fields of the digital economy, global value chains, international trade, and industrial economics, as well as for university students and industry professionals.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license

Digitization of the Global Value Chain and High-Quality Development

Fundamentals of Construction Project Delivery Systems advocates for a transformative approach that places emphasis on integrated methodologies such as design-build and integrated project delivery. In addition, this book embraces new approaches in the industry: framework and program-based procurement.Unlike conventional perspectives that view project delivery as a mere administrative process and a set of rules/features, this book challenges this notion. It proposes a shift in perspective, positioning the project delivery system as a design endeavor to define an organizational structure. Here, the owner is envisioned as actively adjusting the degree of organizational integration and interest alignment responding to the given internal and external context. Divided into four parts, this book begins by introducing project delivery systems before covering selection methods and contract types in Part 2. The third section goes into detail on four delivery project methods: Design-Bid-Build, CM-at-Risk, Design-Build, and Integrated Project Delivery and follows a similar chapter structure with a case study to demonstrate the method. The final part looks to the future covering new procurement trends, innovation, culture, and efficiency.This book offers practical guidance on how owners can effectively leverage integrated approaches to enhance project outcomes. For educational purposes, this book offers guidance for undergraduate and graduate students in project delivery method courses within construction management programs.

Sustainable business is no longer optional--it's the strategy that will determine who leads and who gets left behind.Climate change is not just a future threat--it's a current reality, reshaping markets, supply chains, and entire industries. Rising temperatures, resource scarcity, and mounting waste are driving regulatory pressure, investor scrutiny, and consumer demand for sustainable practices. For business leaders, this isn't just an operational challenge--it's a strategic disruption. Companies that fail to adapt risk being swept aside by forces they can no longer ignore.In The Ultimate Disruption: Rethinking Business in a World Transformed by Climate Change, INSEAD professors Atalay Atasu and Luk Van Wassenhove provide an essential road map for thriving in this new era. Drawing on decades of research and real-world case studies, they show why sustainability must be treated as a core business imperative, not a compliance exercise or marketing slogan. The authors introduce a framework for rethinking strategy, redefining value propositions, and reinventing business models to integrate environmental value alongside customer utility and profit.Through compelling examples--from Polygreen's zero-waste transformation on a Greek island to Schneider Electric's global decarbonization initiatives--the book illustrates how companies are turning environmental constraints into opportunities for innovation and growth. Each chapter tackles critical steps: building the business case for sustainability; revisiting value potential; overcoming operational and scaling challenges; and leveraging partnerships, tech, and new business models to deliver shared value and profitability.Sustainability is no longer a cost--it's a competitive advantage. The Ultimate Disruption equips leaders with the strategies and tools to navigate the climate-driven transformation of business ecosystems and emerge stronger than ever.

Rethinking Business in a World Transformed by Climate Change

The Ultimate Disruption

„Organizations matter“ – kulturelle und künstlerische Wertschöpfung findet in der Moderne ihren Weg zu Publika, Rezipienten und Nutzern nicht mehr primär über private, elitäre Zirkel von Adel oder Klerus, sondern wird seit der Entfaltung bürgerlicher Öffentlichkeiten durch Kulturorganisationen vermittelt. Die Wahrnehmung und Nutzung von Kunst und Kultur ist seitdem primär das Resultat eines Organisationsprozesses, der von korporativen Akteuren – privatwirtschaftlichen Unternehmungen, öffentlichen und staatlichen Organisationen, gemeinnützigen Stiftungen – angeleitet wird und welcher durch seine immer stärke Ausrichtung am Markt sowohl neue Freiheiten aber auch Zwänge für Künstler einerseits und Nutzer andererseits geschaffen hat. Kulturorganisationen und ihr Personal bestimmen maßgeblich über die Produktion, Distribution und Rezeption von Kunst und Kultur. Sie legen z. B. die Kontexte und Orte ihrer Aufführung und Vermittlung fest, oder nehmen sogar Einfluss auf deren Pro-duktion und Nutzung/Re-Produktion, etwa durch die Einflussnahme auf künstlerische Wertschöpfung oder die Reklamation von Leistungsschutzrechten.

Intellectual Capital (IC) has become synonymous with the Knowledge Economy, whereby the intangible resources of organisations are linked to the development of value. However, take up has been problematic, causing some pundits to question if it's simply 'locked' in theory. This book seeks to 'unlock' IC by offering a practical understanding of the IC paradigm since its inception, and takes a critical and performative examination of IC research and practices, whilst offering practical examples of how to implement it successfully. Viewed from both an academic and practioner perspective, this book is useful for students and wanting to apply IC effectively.

Unlocking Intellectual Capital

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.
