Responsible Leadership and Sustainable Management

This book investigates how to achieve 'just transitions' to greener and more digitised economies with proper access to remedy for victims of harm. It comes in the background of acceleration of energy and digital transitions, and growing calls for these transitions to be "just", by mitigating the adverse impacts of human activity on nature and protecting and respecting the rights of people and promoting equality and justice.&nbsp; The volume explores what good remedy looks like in mineral value chains. It shines a light on remedy as a critical, yet underexplored, component of growing minerals supply in the context of international and national frameworks for responsible business conduct and sustainable mineral production. Diverse case studies from multiple jurisdictions cover a suite of ESG issues (e.g., tailings dam breaches, cultural desecration, gender-based violence, Indigenous rights violations, artisanal and small-scale mining) and guide the reader on what effective remedy looks like in practice, what barriers persist, and how enterprises, governments, and civil society can work together to overcome them.&nbsp; The chapters are organised into three sections according to the mechanisms - legal, institutional and grassroots - that are commonly deployed to address harm. Readers of this book will benefit from grounded insights into the lived realities of those affected by mineral extraction and processing in their quest for remediation of harms, from improved understanding of the promise and the limitations of remedy in practice, and from insights into how remedy is conceptualised, implemented and contested across different geographies and minerals. The conclusions present a set of key principles for making remedy more effective in mineral value chains, and make recommendations to a broad set of minerals sector actors on how to improve remedy and ensure minerals contribute to a positive legacy to future generations.

This book provides a clear and structured guide to the international certifications and standards that organizations adopt to govern and improve their operations, products, and processes, while responding to regulatory, market, and societal demands for accountability and transparency.The book is organized into chapters dedicated to the most widely adopted standards: ISO 9001 (quality management), ISO 14001 and EMAS (environmental management), ISO 45001 (occupational health and safety), SA8000 (social responsibility), and ISO/IEC 27001 (information security). It also covers emerging governance frameworks such as B Corp certification and the United Nations Global Compact. Two concluding chapters address the practical journey of adopting a standard and the strategies for integrating multiple management systems into a coherent whole. Each chapter combines theoretical foundations with real-world case studies, helping readers understand how organizations translate these standards into practice.Offering a comparative and interdisciplinary perspective that is both rigorous and accessible, this book will be of great interest to scholars, students, managers, auditors and consultants. It helps readers not only understand each certification individually, but also see how standards interact with one another and with broader organizational strategies. Moreover, the book fills a gap between fragmented academic literature and practitioner oriented manuals by providing a balanced mix of conceptual grounding, case-informed examples, and operational tools.Matteo Podrecca

'Almost Reckless isn't just a book, it's a permission slip. It's about the courage it takes to step off the algorithm's path, the clarity that comes from defining your own principles, and the joy of building something that feels unmistakably yours.' Will Guidara, bestselling author of Unreasonable Hospitality Amy Smilovic's cult fashion brand, Tibi, was a thriving $70 million dollar business when she realized she was working towards someone else's idea of success. So she threw out the rulebook of how things should be done and went with her gut instead. Today Tibi is more successful than ever, and all on Smilovic's groundbreaking entrepreneurial terms.In Almost Reckless, she invites you to get comfortable with embracing smart risks in pursuit of your own vision. Sharing her story and drawing on her years of helping others identify their values and principles, Smilovic teaches you to hone your gut, and your trust in it. With humour and practicality she coaches you in how to determine what success means to you, including:<ul><li>why you don't have to listen to the data guys</li><li>why you should be a Creative Pragmatist</li><li>why sticking to your principles isn't incompatible with success</li></ul><ul><li>why work/life balance is bullshit</li></ul> Almost Reckless is the essential blueprint for entrepreneurs, leaders, creatives and for anyone who wants a working life that feels aligned with who they truly are.

How has fashion become such an important signifier of French nationhood? How has fashion journalism been used to mediate political ideologies like fascism? These questions and more are answered in the first book to comprehensively explore the interactions between fashion, the media, soft power, and nationhood. With a geographically diverse range of case studies and a unique focus on fashion journalism, Fashion and Power covers the origins of the relationship between fashion, cultural power, and national identity in 'courtly' societies, through the Cold War to the identities of emerging fashion nations such as China and Nigeria. Examining figures from 'La Jeune Fille Américaine' to First Ladies, Nelson Best argues how, in Susan Kaiser's words, 'representations of nation are built on the backs of women's bodies.' By exploring fashion journalism as a discourse of cultural power that shapes the identity of nations in different times and places, Fashion and Power reveals the contingency of these power relations and the possibility of their renegotiation. This accessible and highly engaging book is an invaluable resource not only for fashion studies students but also for those in media and cultural studies and anyone interested in fashion, identity, and power.

Fashion and Power

“With a perfumer’s art, Ola Salem gives us a heady concoction of travelogue, history, and culture.” —Tilar Mazzeo, New York Times bestselling author A cultural journey through the world of fragrance, weaving together ancient tradition and modern artistry to tell the untold history of our favorite perfume trends of today Scent’s grip on how we feel and what we remember is distinct from our other senses. Unlike sight, sound, taste, or touch, smell bypasses the brain’s central relay, going straight to the limbic system where we process emotions and store memories. This means that a single whiff of perfume can instantly evoke nostalgia, moving us in ways we cannot always explain. Perfume has fascinated every civilization for millennia, evolving from a tool for ancient rituals to a $50 billion global industry. But long before France bottled its fame, Arabia perfected the art of scent—not just as a measure of beauty and attraction but also as a display of power. Yes, Chanel revolutionized fragrance with No. 5, Guerlain’s Shalimar reshaped how the East was imagined, and Tom Ford’s Oud Wood brought the scented wood to the streets of London, Paris, and New York. But places like the Arab gulf, North Africa, East Asia, which gave the world much of these ingredients and techniques, have been written out of their own history. “Intimate, funny, and deeply research” (Clarissa Ward, author of On All Fronts) and based on months of on-the-ground reporting across four continents, Egyptian American journalist Ola Salem provides a first-hand account of the perfume monopoly, interrogating the “fraghead” revolution, debunking industry stereotypes, and examining what the future of fragrance will look like. From Cleopatra’s perfume factories to the modern-day Sephora counter, from the jasmine fields of Egypt to the frankincense trees in Oman, Salem takes readers on an immersive cultural journey to shine a light on the oft-overlooked corners, cultivators, and creators of the fragrance world.
