Brawner J: Optimized Lean Production

Optimized Lean Production

Routledge International Studies in Money and Banking

As an integral part of the world financial market, the global asset management industry has played a significant role in almost every critical event and change in the world financial market over the past four decades. Its growth has been facilitated from the financial innovations in products and management technologies from various financial institutions. It is definitely a challenge to comprehend the dynamic linkage between the global asset management industry and the world financial market, institutions and products. This book takes the challenge by providing a systematic and analytical review of the dynamic development of global asset management industry in its market structure, product diversities, risk management technologies and performance. The book aims at offering researchers, investors and financial practitioners a comprehensive introduction on how the dynamic development of global asset management industry has been integrated with the fast changing world financial market, institutions and products. As wealth or asset management is becoming a popular and specialized subject offered in university financial courses, this book may serve as a key textbook for financial courses in universities.

The Dynamic Development of Global Asset Management Industry

This book presents a cohesive collection of cutting-edge research focused on advanced decision-support methodologies for complex and ambiguous operational contexts. This volume systematically assembles ten pivotal studies employing uncertain decision-making, multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA), and tailored optimization models to address substantive challenges in supply chain management, sustainable operations, and strategic planning.The contributions span a rigorous methodological spectrum, including fuzzy PDCA cycles for green performance evaluation, hybrid MCDM frameworks for lean tool selection, and robust optimization for resilient network design. Applications are drawn from critical domains such as healthcare logistics during epidemic response, sustainable supply chain configuration, and large-scale project trade-off analysis under resource constraints. Each chapter demonstrates the translation of theoretical computational models into applied solutions for decision-making under volatility, incomplete information, and multi-objective pressures.This volume will serve as a significant reference for academics and graduate researchers in management science, operations research, and industrial engineering. It provides a structured examination of how contemporary soft computing and operational research techniques can be leveraged to enhance analytical rigor and strategic outcomes in the face of pervasive environmental uncertainty.The chapters in this book were published in International Journal of Management Science and Engineering Management.

Innovation Decision-Making Under Uncertain Environment

Routledge Studies in Accounting

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

This book analyzes the impact of national culture on a range of corporate carbon practices in major economies since the Paris Agreement. It does so by exploring the interaction between hard institutions such as carbon policies and regulation and soft institutions such as national culture.The book focuses on national culture as a key factor in corporate decarbonization practices, one traditionally overlooked by analytical frameworks rooted in economic development, laws and regulation. It argues that fighting climate change requires collaboration from organisations in countries with diverse cultures. Managers and various stakeholders who exert significant influence over climate actions are likely to respond to a climate threat in accordance with their cultural prescriptions towards risk, regulation, environmental stewardship and stakeholder engagement. Analysing a large, cross-country dataset covering firms from both developing and emerging companies, the book analyses firm-level decisions, behaviours, strategies and outcomes related to decarbonization. It finds that corporate decisions to decarbonize are influenced not just by formal institutions such as macrolevel regulations, climate standards and policies, but softer institutions such as national culture which either facilitate or constrain a firm's ability to adopt effective climate strategies. The book highlights the importance of context-sensitive climate governance and closes by outlining areas of future research.Sitting at the intersection of cultural studies and corporate environmental governance, this book will interest researchers and policy makers working on sustainability, accounting and environmental management.

National Culture and Corporate Responses to Climate Change

Routledge Studies in Marketing

Visual Methods in Marketing and Consumer Research

In analyzing how business interacts with the evolution of economic, technological and political systems over the long term, the book provides a unique method to understand this increasingly vital topic. Updated to incorporate more detail on management theories, the new edition also brings the story up to date to the era of global crisis and financialization.With a chronological approach and led by globally-recognized experts on business history, this is essential reading for all business students and scholars looking at the past and towards the future.

Complexities and Comparisons

Business History

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.

The Pornography Business

Elon Musk may become the world's first trillion-dollar CEO. This reflects a broader trend: from 1978 to 2023, CEO compensation increased by more than 1,085%, while U.S. average worker pay grew by only about 11%. What was a 57-to-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990 expanded to nearly 268-to-1 by 2023, revealing a widening gap between executive and workforce compensation. Elon Musk is both a CEO and a Leader. In such rare cases, extraordinary compensation may be justified by exceptional vision, risk-taking, and long-term value creation. But does this justification apply to most CEOs? For many others, such as Nike's former CEO, pay has risen sharply without comparable leadership outcomes, raising concerns about systemic overpayment and eroding trust in business. Dr. Hairong Gui is an original thinker who combines analytical rigor, intuitive insight, and empirical practice, consistently choosing the right path rather than the easy one. Mr. William Bloom, MBA/JD, frames the book as both an intellectual achievement and a moral statement. Central to the book is Dr. Gui's Leader Valuation Model (LVM), the first-ever CEO compensation model grounded in leadership value rather than title or power, building transparency and a credible benchmark to realign responsibility, reward, and credibility.

Managing Public-Private Partnerships

Routledge New Directions in PR & Communication Research

As one of the key thinkers of social theory, public relations scholars have repeatedly turned to Habermas' work to inform their own scholarship. This book systematically reviews the distinct body of PR literature that has applied Habermas' theories to provide an in-depth and nuanced discussion on what this influential social theorist has to offer PR research. Demonstrating the applications and challenges for PR ethics and organizational communications, while opening less well-known concepts such as reflexivity, and double politics as avenues for future research, this unique source book will be of interest to all scholar and advanced students of public relations and communication studies.

Applying Habermas in Theory and Practice

Social Theory and Public Relations Research

You did everything "right." The degree, the job, the responsibilities. Everyone said you'd be successful - but "successful" doesn't feel like you.
Maybe you're exhausted from performing, living on autopilot, or following a path others expected of you. Maybe you're quietly wondering if this is really it.

The Anti-Resume is a different kind of career and life-design book - one that isn't about climbing, hustling, or upgrading your personal brand. Instead, it's an invitation to rethink success from the inside out.

Drawing from coaching, leadership development, and lived experience, Kelvin G. Lee, Ph.D., guides you through a reflective and compassionate process to reconnect with your authentic values, clarify what matters most, and release the pressure to live for external approval. Through stories, gentle exercises, and honest perspective, this book helps you:

discover the meaning in your lived experience

unlearn inherited definitions of achievement

rebuild your inner sense of worth and identity

navigate career transitions with clarity instead of fear

choose a life that feels aligned, not just impressive

If you've ever felt behind, uncertain, or misaligned with the identity you built - this book will remind you that you're not failing. You're becoming.

It's time to stop performing success - and start living it.
