Introduction to Global Business

A sitting CEO's guide to making safety a strategic leadership advantage In A Walk on the Safe Side: Leading with Science in an Uncertain World, Jennifer F. Scanlon, President and CEO of UL Solutions, a leading global safety science organization, states that "innovation without safety is failure." That's what makes safety a critical leadership responsibility-protecting a company's brands, reputation and financial strength. Scanlon shows how leaders can evaluate and address risks amid increasing complexity and fast-paced developments, across AI, cybersecurity, data privacy, supply chains, industrial and consumer products and more. A Walk on the Safe Side offers an insider's perspective from the helm of UL Solutions, the iconic organization descended from Underwriters Laboratories whose century-long legacy of testing and certification has provided assurance and certification for billions of products in the marketplace. Scanlon addresses how potential risks grow more numerous as leaders drive continuous improvement at a scale and pace that determines competitive advantage, providing a framework for safety-first decision-making. Readers will also discover: <ul> <li>How to elevate safety from an operational concern to a C-suite strategic imperative that builds trust and competitive advantage</li> <li>Practical approaches for leading through uncertainty by grounding organizational decisions in safety science, transparency, and rigorous standards</li> <li>Strategies for managing emerging risks in AI, cybersecurity, data privacy, and environmental protection </li> <li>Personal and professional insights drawn from Scanlon's two-time tenure as a CEO, leading both USG Corporation's international expansion and UL Solutions' successful 2024 IPO on the NYSE</li> <li>A leadership philosophy that treats safety as the currency of assurance, reflecting the highest responsibility organizations owe their stakeholders</li> </ul> A Walk on the Safe Side is written for business leaders, executives, and professionals, providing a roadmap for navigating risk, building trust, and driving growth while maintaining the highest standards of responsibility and transparency.

Leading with Science in an Uncertain World

A Walk on the Safe Side

This book offers a pioneering and deeply insightful examination of one of the most challenging dilemmas in contemporary counterterrorism and international law: how to legally and morally assess the responsibility of female suicide bombers affiliated with terrorist groups such as Boko Haram. It exposes a critical legal blind spot where female bombers are caught in a 'grey zone' - neither fully prosecuted nor released - due to conflicting norms around gender, victimhood and terrorism. Drawing on extensive research including interviews, case studies of failed suicide bombers, and legal analysis of terrorism cases, it develops a novel culpability framework that moves beyond simplistic notions of guilt or innocence. By exploring the complex spectrum of moral and legal responsibility, this framework offers a much-needed tool for policymakers, judges, practitioners, academics and students dealing with terrorism, war crimes and transitional justice. It challenges prevailing gender stereotypes that often either criminalise women excessively or excuse them arbitrarily and instead provides a nuanced approach that recognises female bombers as individuals whose actions range from coerced victimhood to accountable perpetrators. More than a legal study, this book humanises the lived realities of women involved in violent extremism and highlights the urgent need for legal systems worldwide to adapt. It is essential reading for scholars, legal professionals, policymakers, and anyone interested in terrorism, gender, human rights and international justice.

Gendered Dimensions of Responsibility

Culpability in Terrorism Law

It was the deadliest terrorist attack of the twentieth century, a bombing which shocked the world. But was the wrong person found guilty?December 21, 1988. All flights between London and New York are full, except for Pan Am 103, where almost half the seats are empty. Thirty-eight minutes after take-off, as the plane flies over the tiny Scottish village of Lockerbie, a bomb explodes in the hull. All 259 people aboard perish.The attack is not a surprise - American diplomats had been warned not to fly with Pan Am - but the flight goes ahead. Eleven years later, a Libyan national is convicted of orchestrating the attack, a judgement which has been increasingly questioned and scrutinized due to its political implications and the fact that no physical evidence was found to tie the man to the crime.In late 2022, journalist Jan Stocklassa is trawling through the late Stieg Larsson's archive of documents when he discovers that the world-famous crime author had been investigating the Lockerbie bombing prior to his death, and he picks up the trail. Who was really behind the terrorist attack? Was it just a coincidence that the flight was half-empty that day? And who stands to benefit the most from the truth being buried all these years?Full of intrigue, scandal and drama, The Man Who Fell From The Sky is a breathless rollercoaster which lifts the lid on a real-life international conspiracy, a deadly plot, and one man's relentless fight for the truth.

The Man Who Fell From The Sky

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.
