How do we make workplaces more sustainable, given the present world challenges?

Organizational Behaviour

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

The law codes in the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region are a well-crafted blend of civil and Islamic law in which civil law principles do not violate Islamic provisions. Yet, common law principles derived either from English common law or Islamic customary usages remain unidentified and thus ignored. Here, this complex scenario is rectified through a comparative analysis of the primary data (e.g. cases, statutes and arbitral award decisions), adding common law and uncodified Islamic custom to MENA law codes. The purpose of this comparative analysis is to allow common legal principles found in civil, common and Islamic law to be distilled in order to create a new, harmonised international commercial arbitration law code (HICALC) or uniform Arab arbitration law (UAAL) for adoption in the MENA region, where these principles already greatly influence the legal systems and can be readily assimilated into a harmonised or uniform code. The work demonstrates that this new code would lead to improved arbitral award enforcement in the MENA.

The Strategic Playbook for Sustainability in Luxury Industries

Purposeful Luxury

The extractive economy is failing. The regenerative economy is being built. This is the definitive field manual for entrepreneurs, investors, and changemakers ready to stop tinkering with a broken system—and start building what replaces it. When Laurie Lane-Zucker coined the term impact entrepreneur in 2011, he named an emerging movement. Fifteen years later, that movement has reached a breakthrough. The Impact Entrepreneur Breakthrough maps how to join it. Part manifesto and part operating manual, this book shows how enterprises, ownership, capital, markets, security, and culture must transform together—and provides practical tools to begin immediately. Drawing on three decades at the forefront of impact investing and regenerative economics, Lane-Zucker introduces powerful new frameworks, including the Five Pillars of Real Security, the Prevention Dividend, and Defense as a Service—reimagining protection as shared resilience rather than fortified isolation. You’ll learn to <ul><li>design enterprises that heal communities and ecosystems;&nbsp;</li><li>structure ownership so mission survives growth and succession;&nbsp;</li><li>deploy capital for long-term resilience;&nbsp;</li><li>rethink risk through prevention and collaboration;&nbsp;and</li><li>translate regenerative values into concrete strategies and decisions.</li></ul> Each chapter moves from analysis to action, with real-world applications from practitioners already building the Impact Economy. The breakthrough is happening now. The question is whether you’ll participate.

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.

Leadership in Global Health

The future belongs not to those who maintain the status quo, but to those who can envision and create systems that allow humanity and our planet to flourish together. This book is an invitation for you to become an evolutionary leader.As we face unprecedented polycrises-climate change, social inequality, economic instability-traditional leadership approaches are proving inadequate.

Evolutionary Leadership

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.
