Anthem Series on Development in Africa and the Diaspora

Narrates the story of Cape Town's Africa Café and introduces the Sustainable Entrepreneurship Framework for Africa (SEFA), explaining how excluded entrepreneurs build and convert social, cultural, human, and political capital into financial capital across Africa and its diaspora.
In 1992, in a small house in Cape Town's Observatory neighborhood, Portia Mbau began serving dishes gathered from her travels across the continent. What began as a family venture grew, with her brother Hector's marketing and brand vision, into the Africa Café, a celebrated cultural enterprise at Heritage Square that seated the world at a communal table for nearly three decades before closing in the collapse of global travel in 2020. This book is the first full-length scholarly study of that enterprise: what one family built, what it meant, and what it teaches. 
The book is built on primary interviews with Hector Mbau and sustained fieldwork in Cape Town, including the township of Langa. From this single richly documented case, it develops an original theoretical contribution, the Sustainable Entrepreneurship Framework for Africa (SEFA). SEFA integrates the five forms of capital (social, human, cultural, financial, and political) with the constraints of post-colonial economies and the linked processes of value creation and value capture. Its central mechanism, capital conversion under constraint, explains how entrepreneurs excluded from formal finance build the forms of capital available to them and convert them, through the value they create, into the financial capital the system withheld. The framework is stated in testable propositions, with explicit boundary conditions. The argument then travels. Comparative chapters set the Africa Café alongside township enterprise, continental African entrepreneurship, and the historic Black business districts of the United States, from Greenwood in Tulsa to Parrish Street in Durham, Jackson Ward in Richmond, Sweet Auburn in Atlanta, and Farish Street in Jackson, districts that built every form of capital except the political capital that might have protected them. A full chapter grounds the framework in the philosophy of Ubuntu, engaging both its promise and its critics. The book speaks to scholars and students of entrepreneurship, management, African studies, and development; to policymakers concerned with enterprise and empowerment; and to general readers drawn to the story of what one family built, what it meant, and what it teaches.

Attention First

Scale your business and gain the freedom you dreamed of as a founder. Chuck is exhausted. The company he founded has a superior product and was gaining traction. Now, sales are slipping, his executive team is falling apart, and he can't remember the last time he made it home for dinner. How long can this last? But then Chuck meets the right mentor. Harper owns a bar that doesn't seem special, but beneath the surface it is just one piece of a wealth-producing empire. Harp has cracked the code for scaling businesses without sacrificing everything else in life. More than a modest bartender, Harp is about to share the secret to his success. It all starts with Chuck asking a deceptively simple question: "How do customers happen?" Over a series of late-night conversations, Harp reveals a growth operating system that busts myths about strategic planning, holds people accountable for the business drivers that truly matter, and rallies executive teams around a common goal. Equal parts gripping fable and vital business playbook, the tools in The Million Dollar Napkin are real, tested, and proven. Entrepreneur, investor, founder, and CEO Ryan Deiss is an expert on scaling and customer value optimization. His system works for his companies, it works for Chuck, and it will work for you. In this book, you'll learn to make the following: <ul><li>value engines that show the process of how your company creates value</li><li>scorecards that show how well that process is working</li><li>quarterly sprint plans that show how to make that process better</li></ul> Together, these three components create a self-reinforcing loop called the Growth Flywheel. Your job as CEO isn't to work harder, it's to keep the flywheel spinning. Ryan Deiss's The Million Dollar Napkin shows you how with a fast-paced story and a step-by-step guide for building a business that grows predictably and scales sustainably, without burning yourself out.

The Entrepreneur's Roadmap for Development, Management, and Growth

New Venture Management

A lesson-packed success story for the twenty-first century, from a ninth-generation Kentuckian who imported the Silicon Valley playbook to the heartland, revealing how the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied anywhere, and even to our most stubborn industries. In his case: trash. When Nate Morris decided to build a business, he wasn’t looking to disrupt—he was looking for a problem to solve. Morris believed that the bigger the problem, the more the market would reward him for solving it. And one of the biggest problems, he came to believe, was one that every person, business, and community dealt with on a daily basis, but which was often overlooked: waste. American Trash is the moving story of how a ninth-generation Kentuckian—a boy who grew up being called “white trash”—applied the innovative thinking we associate with Silicon Valley startups to the ancient problem of waste. Raised on the scrappy resourcefulness of his grandfather, president of their local autoworkers’ union, Morris built Rubicon, a waste management company powered by digital technology. Unlike the bloated industry titans of yesterday, Rubicon was asset light: It wouldn’t own landfills, so it would be free of the perverse incentive to fill the land with chemical-laden trash, and it wouldn’t own trucks, so it would support “mom and pop” hauler businesses. Most important, it would be based in Georgia and Kentucky, thousands of miles from the near-sighted culture of Silicon Valley. In telling his story, Morris shows how he combined the great tradition of American entrepreneurship with the lessons of the digital economy—and did it far from the coastal bastions of the technology elite. The result is a blueprint for those seeking to tackle our biggest challenges with creative, free-market solutions.
