Lind D: Loose Leaf for Statistical
Techniques in Business and Economics: 2

Loose Leaf for Statistical Techniques in Business and Economics: 2026 Release

In 2007, as the first iPhone launched, I was a young retail leader on the front lines of what would become one of the most transformative technological revolutions in history. Customers waited for hours to secure their new device only to return days later furious that networks had failed under unprecedented demand. Inside stores, no answers were quick or easy. There was pressure, confusion, and a leadership playbook that no longer seemed to work. It was an inflection point not just for technology, but for leadership. The Hope Advantage begins in this moment and expands to confront the reality every leader now faces. No longer is change episodic; it is constant, exponential, and it impacts every area of life. The conditions once described as volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous are no longer exceptions to the rule; they are the operating environment. But the change itself is not the problem. We've lost the belief in our ability to shape what comes next. When you believe a better future is possible, that you have the power to help create it, and that you don't need a perfect plan to start, this is hope--a practical leadership framework built on the three interconnected disciplines of Direction, Ownership, and Movement. Blending behavioral science, leadership philosophy, and lived executive experience, The Hope Advantage introduces a distinct and timely thesis that belief, not strategy, is the primary hurdle to change. It offers leaders not just a new way to think, but a practical framework immediately applicable to the transformations they're already implementing.

How Leaders Build Belief That Makes Change Possible

The Hope Advantage

What if the future isn't built by tearing down, but by mending what already exists?In Kintsugi: Fostering Innovation in Business Through Creative Integration, the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold becomes a powerful lens for rethinking growth. Instead of hiding cracks, Kintsugi highlights them by transforming fractures into strength. This book argues that the most enduring innovations today follow the same logic: not replacement, but reintegration.Across Asia and beyond, companies like Grab, Gojek, Taobao Villages, CARSOME, and Tata 1mg are creatively stitching legacy systems together. By connecting fragmented ecosystems--drivers, merchants, communities, the digital platforms--they reveal a new model of value creation rooted in community, trust, and context.The future will not belong to those who destroy the past faster. It will belong to those who know how to mend it.

In 1977, The Economist coined the term "Dutch disease" to describe the damage to the real economy when wealth derives from resource exports rather than productive work. On April 1, 1978, the Second Amendment to the IMF's Articles of Agreement came into force, ending gold's monetary role within the IMF system and consolidating the transition to pure fiat money. With "money" no longer backed by anything real, the alchemists' dream of a "Philosopher's Stone"--the ability to create seemingly limitless wealth out of nothing--appeared to have been realized. But while real wealth produced by human labor is finite, fiat money creation is not subject to the same physical constraint. The result was a new and far more powerful variant of Dutch disease: the Philosopher's Stone Disease. The Money Powers' financialization of economies and imposition of neoliberalism increasingly privileged finance over production. Over the next four decades, the consequences extended beyond economics, eroding the cultural and civilizational heritage and traditions of large swaths of the global population. The socioeconomic impact of this pure fiat-money regime, globally and within the United States, has been an across-the-board deterioration, while its benefits accrued overwhelmingly to less than 0.01 percent of the population. Yet creating money cannot create the real goods it commands. The system therefore depends upon a steady external supply of real goods and the recycling of part of the resulting surpluses into U.S. financial assets. Energy revenues from West Asia have been key to sustaining it. A resurgent Iran thus posed an existential threat to the UK-established and U.S.-dominated oil order. Sanctions, assassinations, proxy wars, color revolutions, terrorist attacks and mass psychological manipulation followed, but failed to achieve their objective. If Iran emerges victorious from the war launched against it in 2026 and breaks U.S. control over the oil-rich Levant, the petrodollar recycling system will suffer a massive blow, accelerating withdrawal from U.S. Treasuries. The dilemma is stark: financial dominance ultimately requires real power to enforce it, while the Philosopher's Stone Disease has hollowed out the productive and military foundations of that power. Why the West Can't Recover: The Philosopher's Stone Disease explains why there may be no way back.

Across clinics, classrooms, city halls, and financial systems, women continue doing the uncredited work of governing AI: deciding when systems can be trusted, paused, refused, and repaired. Governing the Default names this work as relational governance, demonstrating how leaders can turn critique of AI's extractive norms into operational practice. Bringing together industry and academic contributors, the volume reframes organizational care as governance designed into decision rights, feedback loops, oversight, and repair. Its copy-ready practices help leaders, educators, and policymakers replace opaque defaults with consent-first, benefit-sharing, repair-ready systems.

What counts as 'good' work under contemporary Western capitalism? As the traditional promise of identity and status by middle-class occupations becomes increasingly difficult to sustain, many workers turn to manual work in search of meaning. The book argues that this represents a mechanism of middle-class reproduction, through which working-class practices and aesthetics are selectively appropriated and transformed by middle-class workers. To describe this transformation, it introduces the concept of gentrified labour, which captures how manual occupations are culturally 'resignified' and workers negotiate tensions between autonomy, recognition and economic insecurity in the pursuit of meaningful work.

What does it look like to do business with integrity? In Just Business, Alec Hill argues that the foundational Christian concepts of holiness, justice, and love are the keys to a truly Christian business ethic. Written for students and professionals who want their faith to inform their business practices, this textbook provides a clear, practical, and theologically grounded framework for navigating the ethical challenges of modern business life.Now in its fourth edition, Just Business has been updated with more current case studies and examples from global economies and a brand-new chapter on artificial intelligence, making it a timely and comprehensive Christian business ethics resource for today.Just Business features: <ul><li>An accessible and practical Christian perspective on business that teaches readers to apply timeless moral principles in ethical decision-making</li><li>Insightful case studies on pressing topics such as employer-employee relations, discrimination, international business, artificial intelligence, and environmental impact</li><li>Real-world examples of business successes and failures from economies around the globe</li><li>Evaluations of alternative secular approaches to business ethics including dual morality, agency, and law</li></ul>Because God himself is holy, just, and loving, we should strive to embody those characteristics in the way we do business.

What employers must know about FMLA leave for both on-site and remote workers The federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) helps workers balance the demands of work, family, and personal care. But for employers, knowing how to apply this law fairly and legally can be difficult--especially when it comes to determining workers' eligibility for different types of leave, tracking intermittent leave, and completing the proper paperwork. What's more, related and sometimes overlapping workers' compensation statutes and state leave laws create complexity, such that any misstep can result in frustration for both managers and employees. This book provides answers--in plain English--to every employer's questions about the FMLA. It offers detailed information, sample forms, checklists, and other tools to help company managers and human resources personnel figure out: <ul> <li>who is eligible for leave</li> <li>what types of leave are covered</li> <li>how much leave individual employees may take, and</li> <li>how to comply with notice and other paperwork requirements.</li> </ul> This indispensable guide, from experienced employment law attorneys, has already helped thousands of companies learn how to respect employees' rights while simultaneously protecting their business interests. The 8th edition includes changes to state family and medical leave laws and discussion of how they intersect with the FMLA.

Are digital technologies really a silver bullet for development in the Global South?


Digital technologies are supposed to solve the challenges of climate change, projected population growth, land conflicts and food insecurity, especially in rural areas. Yet NGOs, government institutions, and private companies are increasingly adopting a trial-and-error approach as they recognize the limitations of transferring Western science and technologies to the global South.
 
This book presents the ambivalent practices and implications of digital pilot projects which aim to 'develop' both farming communities and locally adapted innovations in East Africa. Inspired by laboratory ethnographies in Science and Technology Studies, it explores the practices of testing and developing digital technologies in rural Tanzania. The multi-sited ethnography, which takes in agricultural fairs, conferences, documents, online courses, tech hubs, project offices, villages and fields, centres on three case studies, namely DAST (a digital land-formalisation tool), STAS (an AI system for agricultural productivity) and iPlus (an e-extension tool). Rather than viewing these technologies simply as welcome tools to promote connectivity, empowerment and increased production - as commonly advanced in development policy - this book foregrounds the (un)intended consequences of the planning, set-up, maintenance and results of digital pilot projects. Against the backdrop of conflicting logics between testing technologies and developing Tanzanian agriculture through them, this book considers their (un)predictable impacts on new actors, the character of development and the trial communities in rural Tanzania.
