Leadership, Management und Administration im Zeitalter Künstlicher Intelligenz

Militärische Führung neu denken

What if the biggest obstacle to solving our problems is nothing more than a failure to believe that we can?Rick Caruso has spent his life stepping optimistically into places where other people see no way forward by asking a deceptively simple question: What can we do to make this better? From his appointment as Commissioner to the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power and later the City's troubled Police Department, to the creation of his bold and innovative real estate ventures including L.A.'s world-renowned retail center The Grove, Caruso built a reputation for finding steadfast solutions even in the face of staunch adversity. By employing the great teachers of experience and curiosity, he continues to do what he can to improve Los Angeles, the city he loves, and in Breaking New Ground, he shares lessons learned along the way--while offering us all a path forward to a better future.Again and again, Caruso discovered that breakthroughs rarely come from knowing everything at the outset. They come from asking better questions, bringing the right people into the room, listening without ego, separating ideology from reality, and refusing to give up until workable solutions emerge. Ultimately, they require a steadfast dedication to the belief that there is always a solution and that defeat is not an option.Breaking New Ground is the story of how his philosophy was forged--from the examples of immigrant grandparents and a father who lost one fortune and built another, to Caruso's own successes, failures, public battles, family life, faith, and unexpected turns through business and government.Caruso is less interested in prescribing a formula for becoming successful than in exploring how successful problem-solvers think: how they distinguish what matters from what merely makes noise; how they balance conviction with compromise; how they recognize when conventional wisdom has stopped working; and how they remain fearless enough to see difficult decisions through.Part memoir, part argument, and part blueprint for action, Breaking New Ground offers a timely proposition for anyone confronting a problem that feels too complicated, entrenched, or divisive to solve.There is always another way forward. Sometimes you simply have to be willing to build it.

The Power of Finding Steadfast Solutions

Breaking New Ground

Why Britain's energy path gave rise to an ideology of endless growth Despite the warnings of climate scientists, the world remains dangerously addicted to fossil fuel. Why has it been so difficult to break this habit? In a major new account, Fredrik Albritton Jonsson suggests that the planetary emergency has profound historical roots reaching back to the making of the first fossil fuel economy in eighteenth-century Britain. Rather than look for a single dramatic rupture centered on the steam-powered factory system, in Infinite Coal Albritton Jonsson shows that there was a much more gradual and multidimensional development of the first coal economy, stretching from the deep mine and ironworks to the household and the global food system. Albritton Jonsson explores not only the material forces behind the British energy path but also how ideas about fossil fuel energy reoriented politics and society toward a new ideal of growth. At the same time an environmental and political history of Britain’s energy transformation, Infinite Coal explains why and how coal became so deeply embedded in our way of life. Albritton Jonsson argues that the most important legacy of Britain’s early fossil fuel economy is fossil cornucopianism—the idea of a bountiful, never-ending energy source—which still haunts modern politics and economics.

The pocket MBA for entrepreneurial moms and women of color&nbsp;who want to build a business from scratch, overcome financial obstacles, and shift the trajectory of their life, from a globally recognized entrepreneur, business coach, and digital educator. While starting a new business is hard for everyone—half close their doors within the first five years—it’s even harder for female entrepreneurs. Ellie Diop, founder and CEO of Ellievated Academy, Fully Funded Co., and Mommy to Millionaire, intimately knows the barriers that historically have kept women from economic freedom. She also knows how to overcome them.&nbsp; From starting her business with a single $1,200 stimulus check in 2020, to becoming a self-made millionaire in her very first year, Ellie has mastered the art of life changing entrepreneurial success—and now, with Girl, Start that Business!, she’s ready to share those secrets.&nbsp; The strategies within these pages are battle tested: Ellie has turned thousands of her clients into profitable business owners. And she’s done so by meeting them where they are. Ellie knows many women are starting from zero—no money, no business plan, no customers. What they do have is a great idea, hustle, heart, and street savvy. This non-judgmental, sassy, and whip-smart pocket MBA is what female entrepreneurs need to turn their dreams into life-changing reality.&nbsp; Let’s go, girl, start that business today!

Wer von den deutschen Rüstungsmilliarden wirklich profitiert 
 
 Keine Branche profitiert so sehr vom Krieg in der Ukraine und der 'Zeiten wende' wie die Rüstungsindustrie. Gleichzeitig ist sie eine Blackbox: Die Öffentlichkeit erfährt kaum etwas über die Firmen, die mit unserer Sicherheit Milliarden verdienen. Das neue Buch des Sicherheitsexperten und Investigativjournalisten Christian Schweppe deckt auf, wie Rüstungspolitik in Deutschland wirklich funktioniert ? und wer die Strippen zieht. 
 
 Schweppe schildert auf der Basis dutzender Gespräche mit Insidern aus der verschwiegenen Rüstungsindustrie, wie groß der Boom seit 2022 wirklich ist. Gold rausch basiert auch auf hunderten vertraulichen Dokumenten, die eigentlich zur Verschlusssache erklärt wurden, aber vom Autor exklusiv ausgewertet werden können. Sein Report aus dem Maschinenraum der Waffenbranche erzählt die spannende Geschichte, wie es wirklich läuft bei den Waffenschmieden im Land und erklärt, ob uns all die Milliarden kurzfristig überhaupt sicherer machen. Dafür besucht der Bundeswehrkenner Schweppe viele Orte der Aufrüstung selbst: Er reist durch ein Land, das neue Raketenabwehr-Systeme baut und geheime Flug plätze für Atomjets. Er recherchiert zu Mondpreisen bei Kriegsmaterial und fragwürdigem Geschäftsgebaren großer Konzerne, er schildert aus erster Hand, was passieren kann, wenn man in Deutschland zu viele kritische Nachfragen zu milliardenschweren Rüstungsdeals stellt. Seine Langzeitreportage hinter den Kulissen der deutschen Aufrüstung zeigt: Kaum eine Branche ist so sehr mit unserer Politik verwoben wie die Rüstungsindustrie.

Goldrausch

When life disrupts work, leaders need to know what to do next. This practical guide shows&nbsp;leaders at organizations of every size, from small businesses to large corporations, how to support employees through hard moments while strengthening trust across the workplace. This is the book to read before the crisis happens, so you can respond with confidence, care, and clarity when it does. Life disruptions do not stay outside the workplace. Grief, illness, caregiving, divorce, infertility, and other major life events shape how people show up at work, yet most organizations still do not prepare leaders for these moments. Even caring managers can freeze, unsure what to say, how to help, or how to balance support with team needs. The challenge is not whether a life disruption will affect your team. It is when. The leaders who build trust in difficult moments are the ones who prepare before those moments arrive. Drawing on original PhD research, interviews with employees and leaders, and nearly two decades of experience advising employers on benefits and workplace strategy, Dr. Nataliya Boychenko Stone gives leaders a practical guide for responding with confidence and care. She shows readers how to <ul><li>understand what support an employee actually needs,</li><li>connect people with the right workplace resources,</li><li>adjust work with clarity and flexibility,</li><li>stay present after the first crisis moment, and</li><li>support employees while maintaining accountability.</li></ul> This practical framework helps managers, HR professionals, and organizational leaders navigate life's most challenging moments at work while strengthening trust, loyalty, and performance across their teams.

Governing China in the 21st Century

‘China’s Urban–Rural Relations: Myths, Lessons, and Legacy of the New-Type Urbanisation Plan’ offers a critical and timely examination of one of the most ambitious transformation agendas of the 21st century. The book examines how China's New-Type Urbanisation Plan has changed the connection between cities and the countryside—spatially, economically, institutionally, and socially—moving beyond celebratory narratives and crude criticisms. This book fundamentally questions the notion that urbanisation is a neutral or consistently advantageous development. It contends that although China's approach has brought about previously unheard-of levels of scale, speed, and connection, it has also resulted in uneven outcomes, enduring inequality, and contentious forms of integration. As described above, urban-rural change is a complicated and frequently conflicting process influenced by distributional dynamics, institutional frameworks, and governance decisions rather than a straight line toward equilibrium. Architects, planners and scholars will find it of interest.Ali Cheshmehzangi
 is Professor and Head of the School of Architecture, Design and Planning at The University of Queensland, Australia. His research focuses on urban sustainability, climate resilience, and the evolving relationships between cities, communities, and technological systems. He has authored and edited more than 70 academic books and published extensively on sustainable urbanism, urban transformation, and the future of cities. His work on China draws on extensive research and academic experience, critically examining the country’s rapid urbanisation, urban–rural transformation, and governance practices within wider debates on sustainable development, carbon neutrality, and long-term urban and regional change.

China’s Urban-Rural Relations

Four-time World Series champion and Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts pulls back the curtain on one of the most quietly powerful leadership philosophies in professional sports: an unshakable belief in the power of optimism, accountability, and human connection. Baseball is a game of failure, where even the best players succeed three times out of ten. For Roberts, that statistic represents an opportunity. In Relentless Positivity, he reveals how leading through uncertainty, pressure, and loss has taught him the secret to long-term success: meeting people where they are, embracing the mess, and having the courage to show a relentless, almost irrational positivity that helps your team step into its full potential. Drawing on stories from the clubhouse and the world stage—from his iconic stolen base with the 2004 Red Sox to a decade of managing the Dodgers to World Series glory—Roberts shares cornerstone principles that have shaped his approach to leadership and life, including: <ul><li>Be the thermostat, not the thermometer: How to bring the energy your team needs instead of simply reacting to the mood around you. </li><li>Clarity before commitment: Being candid about expectations creates stronger buy-in than getting someone to say yes without understanding what’s required of them.</li><li>Everyone has to want the ball: How to prepare like anyone on the team can be the one who steps up when it matters most.</li><li>Hope changes everything: You can’t always change your circumstances, but you can train yourself to recognize the opportunity that’s still available. </li></ul> Blending stories from a championship locker room with the insights of a master motivator, Roberts delivers a field-tested guide for anyone leading through complexity, whether in the stadium, in the conference room, or at home. Written for a time when our models for leadership are rapidly evolving, Relentless Positivity is a timely manifesto for building strong teams, resilient cultures, and sustaining personal success in any field.

Palgrave Studies in Sub-National Governance

This book examines local refugee integration policies in Western Europe, focusing on small and medium-sized towns and rural areas. Applying an innovative cross-country comparative approach, it maps and compares integration policies targeting humanitarian migrants in 36 localities across seven countries – Sweden, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Italy and Austria. It also analyses the drivers and effects of local policymaking processes in this field.The book challenges the dominant view that migration policymaking tends to be pragmatic and oriented at problem-solving. Rather, it shows that local integration policies are largely shaped by political factors, including the political affiliations of local governments, the presence and strength of radical right parties, and the dynamics of multilevel party politics. In doing so, the book throws new light on migration policymaking in small European localities, contributing to a field dominated by studies of big cities and metropolitan areas.Tiziana Caponio

Financial Decision-Making

An open invitation to changemakers, educators, conscious consumers, and anyone interested in the creative economy to lean into this grassroots global community and help drive systems change. We live in an age where every convenience is a finger tap away, but historically marginalized communities and ecosystems are paying the price of unconscious consumption. Our current economic practices contribute to environmental damage, social injustice, and declining public trust. The solution, argues Stacey Edgar, social entrepreneur and executive director of the International Folk Art Market, is the artisan economy. In contrast to the profit-at-all-costs model of the mainstream economy, the artisan approach to production and consumption encourages creativity, preserves culture, and cultivates connection. In Artisan Economics, Edgar proposes a shift toward this artisan-centric model that prioritizes creativity, dignity, and community. Drawing on stories and research from around the world, she outlines eight core principles of the artisan economy—purpose, creativity, dignity, resistance, community, value, sustainability, and shared prosperity. She also shares a framework, called the Taproot Model of Systems Change, on which to enact these principles by restoring a vision of the economy as a living system. Ultimately, Edgar proposes, the artisan economy is a way to reconnect consumers with makers, foster sustainable growth, and create a more equitable and human-focused global economy. To create true connections across our global economy, we need a dramatic overhaul of what it means to work and what it means to consume.
