Integrating Digital Innovations, Operations, and Sustainability for Global Success

Supply Chain Management in Practice

From the bestselling author of Looptail comes a remarkable new approach to business and lifeBruce Poon Tip started one of the world’s biggest global travel companies with only a couple of kayaks and a dream. The company, G Adventures, was on track for a record year in January 2020. Then, the world stopped—their income dropped to zero and they had to shut down operations in more than 100 countries. Now the Canadian company is about to crack a billion dollars in annual sales for the first time. How did they survive and ultimately thrive when so many other businesses didn’t?In his long-awaited new book, the award-winning CEO of G Adventures, Bruce Poon Tip, shares lessons about company culture, strategy, and a new approach to succeeding in business and life that he calls “communityship.” Communityship is what happens when companies and the people they employ stop seeing themselves as separate and start acting like they’re part of the world. It’s not just working together—it’s caring about each other. It’s shared responsibility, trust, and connection, whether it’s within a company or a neighbourhood, or with people halfway across the world. It’s about creating value that lifts everyone, not just a handful of people cashing in. Success isn’t just money—it’s the relationships we build, the impact we make, and the good we leave behind. It’s not a business strategy. It’s a way of being.Provocative, inspiring, and groundbreaking, Communityship shows how everyone, from those on the ground floor to those in the C-suites, can thrive in a new world and not only future-proof but century-proof their businesses.

Hersteller leichter Nutzfahrzeuge agieren in einem komplexen Spannungsfeld zwischen ökonomischen und ökologischen Zielsetzungen. Auf der einen Seite müssen LNF-Hersteller aufgrund hoher Fixkosten und einer angespannten wirtschaftlichen Situation hohe Deckungsbeiträge erwirtschaften, um profitabel zu sein. Auf der anderen Seite müssen sie durch die ehrgeizigen europäischen Ziele zur Reduktion der Treibhausgasemissionen ihre CO¿ -Flottenwerte kontinuierlich reduzieren und festgelegte Grenzwerte einhalten. Die Steigerung der Deckungsbeiträge bei simultaner Senkung der CO¿-Flottenemissionen stellt Hersteller leichter Nutzfahrzeuge jedoch vor große Herausforderungen. Vor diesem Hintergrund verfolgt dieses Buch das Ziel, eine Entscheidungsunterstützung für die taktische Absatzplanung zu entwickeln, die bei der Zusammensetzung der optimalen Fahrzeugflotte unterstützt. Im Fokus der Entscheidung steht die Festlegung der zu verkaufenden Stückzahl je Fahrzeugvariante, je Absatzmarkt und je Preisstufe.

CO₂-orientierte taktische Absatzplanung von Herstellern leichter Nutzfahrzeuge

Today's marketplace is shaped by habits of excess that threaten both consumer well-being and the environment, placing overconsumption, materialism, and unsustainable business practices at the heart of contemporary marketing debates. Mindful Consumption and Marketing redefines how markets, organizations, and individuals navigate demand and growth by positioning mindfulness as a transformative lens for theory and practice. Situated at the intersection of consumer behavior, marketing strategy, and sustainable enterprise, it shows how conscious awareness of both internal experiences and external market forces can shape more deliberate and purposeful choices. Krittinee Nuttavuthisit advances a vision of marketing as a moral and relational practice, where value creation balances profitability with consumer well-being, social equity, and ecological responsibility. Through a combination of theory-driven chapters on consumer psychology, sociocultural context, and decision-making, alongside rich case-based illustrations, she charts a forward-looking path for scholars and practitioners seeking more balanced and sustainable market development.
