Thiam T: Without Prejudice

Without Prejudice

A Memoir

The book Finance in Non-Financial Problems applies the concept of finance to non-financial problems including politics, the market for ideas, social networks, free trade, and the law. The principal objective is to use techniques such as portfolio theory, diversification, options, and market efficiency in areas where they have not previously been used. Finance in Non-Financial Problems is then an interdisciplinary resource applying the techniques of uncertainty to new disciplines, providing a new way to look at old problems, presenting problems in the social sciences with a new perspective, and allowing readers to consider political, legal, and social issues in a new way.

Finance In Non-financial Problems

Governments around the world are privatizing everything, with dramatic but largely ignored negative consequences for human rights. This open access book outlines the response that is urgently needed. Corporations are being given control over water, healthcare, housing, public transportation, child welfare services, aged care, and much else. Privatization is promoted by international financial institutions, consulting firms, and development actors as the answer to public finances devastated by the very tax cuts insistently pushed by these groups. Their pitch is based upon a mythology that extols the virtues of an idealized market while ignoring the heavy human rights costs incurred. Building on the latest evidence and on specially commissioned case studies, this book shows how the touted 'efficiency' of the private sector is often predicated on higher charges and/or reduced services, destructive employment practices, and the highly predictable exclusion of many users. Privatization generally costs states more money, marginalizes democratic decision-making, and transforms citizens from rights-holders into customers while sidelining accountability. The authors develop an approach designed to enable human rights actors, including courts, UN treaty monitoring bodies, and NGOs to move beyond their longstanding agnosticism towards privatization. It starts with a presumption that privatization is inherently retrogressive in human rights terms. Whatever mix of public and private is reflected in any given arrangement, governments must retain the degree of control necessary to ensure respect for rights, and the legal, financial and administrative ability to do so. The book charts a new direction for responding to the ever-growing threat that privatization poses to human rights. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.

This book covers an array of multiscale methods to discover the properties of various timescales embedded in a financial time series, including noise-assisted empirical mode decomposition methods. Important interpretable multiscale outputs from the estimation are recognized as a new set of features that can be used for machine learning. The feature selection problem for machine learning is examined in this volume.This book offers an applied quantitative approach that combines novel analytical methodologies and practical applications to a wide array of examples with real-world data. It is self-contained and organized in its presentation. The explanations of the methodologies are both accessible and detailed enough to capture the interest of the curious student or researcher.

Boost your AI quotient for AI-ready leadership.Most leaders know that AI can deliver efficiency gains, making it a company priority in a challenging business environment. But the pace of change is outstripping their ability to adapt. More than 75% of leaders report that AI is creating challenges they have never faced before and these new challenges, anxieties and uncertainty about the future are creating a 'readiness gap'.AI-Q, your AI Quotient, is both a new metric for assessing readiness and a framework for building it. Use the AI-Q MAP (Mindset, Abilities and Practices) to: <ul> <li> assess where you are today </li> <li> identify the critical gaps, and </li> <li> build the leadership and organizational capabilities you need to ensure your AI investments deliver returns. </li> </ul>Futurist and economist Athena Peppes draws on research from leading institutions and expert interviews to offer a new approach to AI-readiness, the new critical leadership capability in the human+AI era.

Financial Statement Analysis and Security Valuation ISE

A lesson-packed success story for the twenty-first century, from a ninth-generation Kentuckian who imported the Silicon Valley playbook to the heartland, revealing how the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied anywhere, and even to our most stubborn industries. In his case: trash. When Nate Morris decided to build a business, he wasn’t looking to disrupt—he was looking for a problem to solve. Morris believed that the bigger the problem, the more the market would reward him for solving it. And one of the biggest problems, he came to believe, was one that every person, business, and community dealt with on a daily basis, but which was often overlooked: waste. American Trash is the moving story of how a ninth-generation Kentuckian—a boy who grew up being called “white trash”—applied the innovative thinking we associate with Silicon Valley startups to the ancient problem of waste. Raised on the scrappy resourcefulness of his grandfather, president of their local autoworkers’ union, Morris built Rubicon, a waste management company powered by digital technology. Unlike the bloated industry titans of yesterday, Rubicon was asset light: It wouldn’t own landfills, so it would be free of the perverse incentive to fill the land with chemical-laden trash, and it wouldn’t own trucks, so it would support “mom and pop” hauler businesses. Most important, it would be based in Georgia and Kentucky, thousands of miles from the near-sighted culture of Silicon Valley. In telling his story, Morris shows how he combined the great tradition of American entrepreneurship with the lessons of the digital economy—and did it far from the coastal bastions of the technology elite. The result is a blueprint for those seeking to tackle our biggest challenges with creative, free-market solutions.

Whether you’re an executive or newly promoted to manager, you’re most likely succeeding at your job, but may wonder if you are reaching your full potential as a boss. Most top performers suspect they aren’t, and Sabina Nawaz, former Microsoft executive and elite Fortune 500 coach, says they’re usually right.

Nawaz taps her experience and proprietary data from executives at Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Motorola, Nordstrom, the United Nations, and more, to offer managers everything they need to know to succeed at the job.

It offers a fresh, evidence-based framework for managing pressure and power with grace and intelligence. These proven strategies guide you to anticipate the unavoidable hazards of leadership without changing who you are.
