A NO-NONSENSE GUIDE FOR FIXING WORK'S BIGGEST TIME-WASTERS: MEETINGS. __________________________________________ "This book will help you turn meetings from a mindless drain into a strategic advantage" NIR EYAL "Grab a copy of this book before your next week of meetings begins!" REID HOFFMANN "Fantastic" STEVEN ROGELBERG "Meetings are broken. This book fixes them - if we care enough to take action" SETH GODIN __________________________________________ To anyone who has ever sat through a pointless meeting, wondering, "Why am I here?", this book is for you. And respectfully, it's also about you. Meetings are broken. They are relics from a bygone era, designed to issue orders, flaunt power, and keep the hierarchy intact. In today's digital, collaborate-or-bust era, this model isn't just inefficient, it actively harms employees and organisations. Drawing on decades of research and stories from leading companies like Google, Salesforce, Pixar, YouTube, and Dropbox, Your Best Meeting Ever provides a blueprint to transform your meetings from monotonous, soul-crushing time sinks into powerful tools for collaboration and innovation. The secret? Treat them like products. Using the seven product design principles, you'll turn your meetings into well-designed products that actually drive work forward and serve your most important users: the people in your organisation. Your Best Meeting Ever is the book every working professional and leader needs.

7 Principles for Designing Meetings That Get Things Done

Your Best Meeting Ever

This practical guide shows you how to build an effective compliance and ethics program that will lower a business's risks and improve productivity. Today's research is clear: companies that prioritize ethics and compliance don't just avoid risk-they gain a measurable edge in productivity and performance. This practical, updated guide shows business leaders, compliance officers, legal professionals, and students exactly how to achieve that advantage in today's complex regulatory landscape. Unlike broad overviews that stop at theory, this new edition delivers a step-by-step roadmap for building stronger, smarter compliance programs. The first half of the book equips readers with proven strategies to design or enhance internal compliance and ethics frameworks. The second half dives into high-risk regulatory areas-antitrust, international business, labor and wage laws, HIPAA and health care, environmental regulations, and more-offering clear explanations of the laws and actionable best practices to stay ahead of costly missteps. Whether you need to strengthen an existing program or build one from the ground up, this guide provides the essential tools to mitigate risk, meet regulatory demands, and unlock the productivity gains that come from doing business the right way.

A Practical Guide for Executives, Lawyers, and Compliance Professionals

Compliance Management

Conceived as a solution to the structural inefficiencies of India's fragmented indirect tax system, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) marked a decisive shift towards a unified, destination-based tax regime. However, its journey--from conception to implementation--has been neither linear nor straightforward, involving years of complex negotiations, institutional innovation, and the careful balancing of fiscal powers between the Union and state governments. The Indian GST offers a comprehensive account of the evolution and performance of the GST in India, serving both as an institutional chronicle and a policy blueprint. Drawing on Dwivedi's extensive first-hand experience, it offers a rare insider's view of the institutional dynamics, political negotiations, and administrative challenges underlying the design and implementation of India's GST. The book examines the Indian GST model within a comparative federal framework, drawing on the experiences of countries such as Canada, Australia, and Brazil. It provides a detailed evaluation of the performance of the GST and empirically analyses its impact on private investment in India. The Indian GST thus paves the way for the next phase of GST reforms, highlighting how crucial these reforms are to realizing the full potential of the GST and maximizing the efficiency and effectiveness of India's tax system.

Platform Supply Chains in the AI Era

This open access book provides a systematic and in-depth analysis of the critical risks inherent in modern platform-based supply chains. Employing rigorous analytical methods, including game theory and advanced, computationally efficient simulation techniques, it delves into three core areas: operational risks, information and data risks, and quality and compliance risks. The book moves beyond traditional supply chain paradigms to address challenges unique to the platform economy. This includes the strategic threat of platforms using seller data to launch competing products, the complex trade-offs in managing third-party product quality, the impact of reactive capacity on quality decisions, and the challenge of optimizing inventory across networks of unprecedented scale.
 
 It is an essential resource for graduate students, academic researchers, and advanced practitioners in the fields of operations management, supply chain management, and information systems. The content is suitable for readers with a graduate-level understanding of these disciplines.

“Professor Bobbi Thomason offers us a manifesto to agency—and teaches us what it means to have it, lose it, and reclaim it. Blending science and storytelling, her writing is as brilliant as it is vulnerable.”—Dolly Chugh, professor, New York University Stern School of Business, author of The Person You Mean to Be and A More Just Future Combining raw memoir and rigorous research, this thoughtful and eye-opening work offers a transformative roadmap to reclaim your agency by coloring outside the lines of what society expects. We make many vows in our lifetimes, some big, some small. Some vows are brief and time bound. Others are intended to last a lifetime. Fulfilling those vows is deeply complicated for women. We are often navigating environments that weren't built for us, where a sudden life shock—or just the exhausting weight of small, daily demands—may sideline our goals. After years of studying how can-do women advance in a world that isn't set up for their success, Dr. Bobbi Thomason found herself navigating a difficult divorce and custody battle—and living the very challenges to women's agency that she had been researching. Bobbi knew she needed more than outdated popular advice to make it through, so she returned to the science and reconsidered how to apply it in her own life. In Vows to Ourselves, she chronicles her journey as she examines how women’s power is taken from them by never-ending obligations to others. And yet, while looking out for other people might be part of the problem; it is also part of the solution. Thomason frames agency not as an isolated achievement, but as a shared practice, detailing how women act with and for their village. Grounded in data and her own raw story, this book offers a credible, compassionate blueprint, encouraging women to let go of life's default settings and build a life centered on their own most precious priorities that honors their complicated and multi-faceted selves. Vows to Ourselves will make every woman feel seen and supported. It will invite you to experiment, to put yourself first, and to sculpt the life and career you deserve. Vows to Ourselves offers women:Answers To Why Agency Is So Hard: Dr. Thomason offers a compelling, evidence-based exploration of why even the most ambitious, and high-achieving women find their autonomy hijacked—and the science of how women break free from being stuck. A Story that Resonates: Through raw, vulnerable storytelling that brings the research to life, Dr. Bobbi Thomason shares her own wake-up call, reminding you that it’s never too late to reclaim your life. Overdue Validation: If you feel overwhelmed, stuck, or stretched too thin, this book meets you with compassion—reminding you that you are not failing. Real Tools For Real Life: Discover practical, research-backed ways to set boundaries, rediscover your desires, and build a life where your ambitions and relationships can thrive together. A Powerful Invitation To Put Yourself First: Learn how honoring your own needs doesn’t just transform your life—it creates a ripple effect of strength, joy, and possibility for everyone around you.

Dieses Handbuch bietet Leserinnen und Lesern ein Lösungskonzept -basierend auf einer Forschungsstudie der BTU CS - für eine KMU-orientierte, überregional funktionsfähige und mittelfristig sich selbsttragende Technologietransfer-Struktur, welche auf alle Hochschulen mit ähnlichen Voraussetzungen übertragbar ist. &nbsp;Seit Jahrzehnten unterliegt der Technologietransfer zwischen Wirtschaft und Wissenschaft einem kontinuierlichen Wandel und hat an Wichtigkeit und Umfang enorm zugenommen.Jedoch werden noch längst nicht alle Potenziale ausgeschöpft.So partizipieren kleinere und mittelständische Unternehmen(KMU) nach wie vor nur in sehr geringem Maße am Technologiertransfer obwohl besonders in diesem Bereich ein großes Entwicklungspotenzial liegt. Zunehmend wird nun eine effizientere Gestaltung des Technologietransfers gefordert. Die vorliegende Forschungsstudie an der Uni BTU CS leistet daher einen wichtigen Beitrag um damit die Weiterentwicklung insbesondere des KMU-orientierten Technologietransfers zu fördern.Umfassend und verständlich erklärt.&nbsp;

'An excellent look at what Palantir does, as well as a fascinating insight into the mind of its eccentric chief executive' TelegraphPalantir Technologies is the most interesting company in the world -&nbsp;and the most controversial.&nbsp;Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the U.S. government in the war on terrorism - an early investor was the CIA - Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the U.S. military, the National Health Service in England, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to healthcare to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the twenty-first century.&nbsp;Its billionaire CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he's a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir's work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp's close friend and Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel.&nbsp;In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger is the first to tell the story of Alex Karp and Palantir from the beginning. Steinberger offers new biographical details and a rich psychological portrait of the man leading one of the world's most secretive companies. Full of revelations, this is an urgent and insightful book about technological power, the surveillance state and the future we all face.
