Business Statistics: 2026 Release

Loose Leaf for Essentials of Business Statistics: 2026 Release

What counts as 'good' work under contemporary Western capitalism? As the traditional promise of identity and status by middle-class occupations becomes increasingly difficult to sustain, many workers turn to manual work in search of meaning. The book argues that this represents a mechanism of middle-class reproduction, through which working-class practices and aesthetics are selectively appropriated and transformed by middle-class workers. To describe this transformation, it introduces the concept of gentrified labour, which captures how manual occupations are culturally 'resignified' and workers negotiate tensions between autonomy, recognition and economic insecurity in the pursuit of meaningful work.

Meaningful Work After the Middle Class

Gentrified Labour

Leadership development has become a vast enterprise of competency models, assessments, courses, simulations, coaching, and carefully constructed learning experiences. Yet many programs remove the very conditions that make leadership difficult: incomplete information, competing demands, consequential choices, shifting relationships, limited authority, political risk, and pressure to act before the situation is fully understood. Participants may acquire useful concepts and perform well in the classroom while remaining poorly prepared for the environments in which leadership must occur.&nbsp;&nbsp;Designing Crucibles argues that knowledge and practice alone cannot produce the adaptive capability necessary for successful leaders. Instead, Nathan Bennett introduces a constraints-led approach (CLA)—translating research from sports science into a systematic methodology for leadership development. Leadership-development designers will learn how pressure, uncertainty, interdependence, incomplete control, and meaningful consequences can be calibrated to create "smaller crucibles": bounded experiences that reproduce the developmental logic of major career challenges without requiring leaders to endure their full organizational and personal costs. Connecting theories of adaptive leadership with actionable tools for constructing these exercises, this book offers a rigorous and practical framework for rethinking how leaders are developed.

Simple, Sound Measurement for Real-World Learning
Are you an L&amp;D practitioner who is avoiding measurement, analytics, and reporting because it all seems too complex, too time-consuming—or just plain intimidating? Most new L&amp;D practitioners know how valuable measurement is, but few know how to do it well or how to make sure the results matter to decision makers. In Measurement Simplified, David Vance and Peggy Parskey cut to the heart of the matter, sharing their expertise with beginners—and anyone who needs a no-nonsense refresher. They explain:
<ul>
<li>How measurement works</li>
<li>Why it’s worth the investment</li>
<li>How to do it efficiently and effectively</li>
</ul>
They walk through the most valuable measures at the course level and the department level, making sure to explain each concept in a way that is accessible and useful for novices. And they make the case for implementing smart measurement and reporting processes that will help your learning function run more like a business.
A fast and friendly on-ramp to the topic, Measurement Simplified still maintains the key insights of Vance and Parskey’s comprehensive classic, Measurement Demystified. This compact new guide offers all the knowledge and tools you need to make practical, evidence-based decisions, ensuring that you measure what matters and elevate the role of learning in your organization.

What do L&amp;D professionals and hip-hop artists have in common? Both face skeptical, diverse audiences and operate within strict time constraints in environments that are full of distractions. In Facilitation in VERSE, learning strategist Tekeisha Zimmerman shares a framework to address those challenges in five stages: Vibe, Engage, Reveal, Spin, and End. The framework draws upon proven &nbsp;techniques to engage learners inspired by hip-hop, including:
&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Call and response</li>
<li>Storytelling for emotional connection</li>
<li>Repetition</li>
<li>Intentional language</li>
<li>Memorable takeaways</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
The VERSE framework directly addresses challenges learning designers and facilitators face every day, including high resistance and pressure to demonstrate measurable behavior change. The book is packed with practical templates, decision matrices, sample scripts, and self-assessments to help instructional designers and facilitators implement the framework. Readers also receive free access to an AI-powered coach that lets them practice applying VERSE in real time, working through scenarios and refining their approach whenever they need it—long after finishing the book.
&nbsp;
The best trainers and hip-hop artists know that connection is what makes a message work. Facilitation in VERSE shows you how to create learning experiences that resonate in the moment and leave a lasting impression.

What does it look like to do business with integrity? In Just Business, Alec Hill argues that the foundational Christian concepts of holiness, justice, and love are the keys to a truly Christian business ethic. Written for students and professionals who want their faith to inform their business practices, this textbook provides a clear, practical, and theologically grounded framework for navigating the ethical challenges of modern business life.Now in its fourth edition, Just Business has been updated with more current case studies and examples from global economies and a brand-new chapter on artificial intelligence, making it a timely and comprehensive Christian business ethics resource for today.Just Business features: <ul><li>An accessible and practical Christian perspective on business that teaches readers to apply timeless moral principles in ethical decision-making</li><li>Insightful case studies on pressing topics such as employer-employee relations, discrimination, international business, artificial intelligence, and environmental impact</li><li>Real-world examples of business successes and failures from economies around the globe</li><li>Evaluations of alternative secular approaches to business ethics including dual morality, agency, and law</li></ul>Because God himself is holy, just, and loving, we should strive to embody those characteristics in the way we do business. Just Business is a valuable resource for both undergraduate and graduate students as well as working professionals who want a guide to business ethics rooted in Christian conviction rather than conventional corporate values. If you are a professor looking for a text that takes both faith and business seriously, or a student trying to figure out how your beliefs translate into your career, this book gives you a place to begin and a framework to build on.

Build a Future-Ready Organization Where Every Employee Can Succeed
Succession planning, while often talked about, remains one of the least successfully implemented leadership practices in an organization’s toolkit. Too often, organizations rely on outdated methods like “successor spotting,” grooming, secret conversations behind closed doors, or focusing only on a select group of “high potentials.” These approaches create bias, limit opportunity, and fail to prepare organizations for the realities of today’s fast-changing workforce. Succession Planning Reimagined introduces developmental succession planning, a modern, inclusive strategy that empowers every employee to grow and contribute to future success.
Through research-based insights and practical tools, you’ll learn how to transform succession planning from a static, murky process into a dynamic, people-centered strategy. You’ll discover the “secret sauce” for success: engaging employees, connecting development to organizational goals, and supporting growth at every stage. Each chapter provides clear steps for:
<ul>
<li>Assessing future needs</li>
<li>Building top-level and next-level plans</li>
<li>Creating measurable progress through continuous refinement</li>
</ul>
Whether you’re an HR leader, OD consultant, L&amp;D professional, or talent strategist, this book equips you to build authentic leadership pipelines that foster equity, readiness, and resilience. By embracing a proactive, developmental approach, you’ll prepare your organization for what’s next while creating a culture in which every employee feels valued and prepared for the future. If you’re ready to move beyond outdated models and design a succession strategy that works for today’s workforce, this guide will show you how to make it happen.

Building Future Readiness at All Levels

Succession Planning Reimagined

We are running our lives, teams, and organizations as though our resources are unlimited. They are not. Regenerative People names the cost of that assumption and offers a different way to work, lead, and live. Drawing on six decades of combined coaching and consulting experience, Janet M. Harvey and Silvia Tassarotti trace the shift from extraction to regeneration--from optimizing outcomes to evolving with them, from controlling uncertainty to partnering with it, and from isolating to protect what we have to interconnecting with what sustains us. Regenerative People moves through four expanding circles: the personal renewal that makes all of this possible, the leadership practices that build resilient teams, the organizational models that generate long-term value rather than short-term extraction, and the community-level shifts that make regeneration collective rather than individual. Each chapter pairs concepts with reflective questions and practices, inviting readers to slow down and apply what they're learning rather than simply collect more ideas. The authors write as guides, not lecturers, walking alongside readers the way Virgil walked beside Dante, offering models and questions in search of the reader's own answers. For coaches, executives, and anyone who senses that the old operating model is reaching its limits, this book offers both the diagnosis and the practice: a way to notice drift before it costs something irreplaceable and to deliberately choose a more enduring way to lead.

Regenerative People: Why Renewal Is Key to Lasting Leadership

In 1977, The Economist coined the term "Dutch disease" to describe the damage to the real economy when wealth derives from resource exports rather than productive work. On April 1, 1978, the Second Amendment to the IMF's Articles of Agreement came into force, ending gold's monetary role within the IMF system and consolidating the transition to pure fiat money. With "money" no longer backed by anything real, the alchemists' dream of a "Philosopher's Stone"--the ability to create seemingly limitless wealth out of nothing--appeared to have been realized. But while real wealth produced by human labor is finite, fiat money creation is not subject to the same physical constraint. The result was a new and far more powerful variant of Dutch disease: the Philosopher's Stone Disease. The Money Powers' financialization of economies and imposition of neoliberalism increasingly privileged finance over production. Over the next four decades, the consequences extended beyond economics, eroding the cultural and civilizational heritage and traditions of large swaths of the global population. The socioeconomic impact of this pure fiat-money regime, globally and within the United States, has been an across-the-board deterioration, while its benefits accrued overwhelmingly to less than 0.01 percent of the population. Yet creating money cannot create the real goods it commands. The system therefore depends upon a steady external supply of real goods and the recycling of part of the resulting surpluses into U.S. financial assets. Energy revenues from West Asia have been key to sustaining it. A resurgent Iran thus posed an existential threat to the UK-established and U.S.-dominated oil order. Sanctions, assassinations, proxy wars, color revolutions, terrorist attacks and mass psychological manipulation followed, but failed to achieve their objective. If Iran emerges victorious from the war launched against it in 2026 and breaks U.S. control over the oil-rich Levant, the petrodollar recycling system will suffer a massive blow, accelerating withdrawal from U.S. Treasuries. The dilemma is stark: financial dominance ultimately requires real power to enforce it, while the Philosopher's Stone Disease has hollowed out the productive and military foundations of that power. Why the West Can't Recover: The Philosopher's Stone Disease explains why there may be no way back.

What if the future isn't built by tearing down, but by mending what already exists?In Kintsugi: Fostering Innovation in Business Through Creative Integration, the ancient Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold becomes a powerful lens for rethinking growth. Instead of hiding cracks, Kintsugi highlights them by transforming fractures into strength. This book argues that the most enduring innovations today follow the same logic: not replacement, but reintegration.Across Asia and beyond, companies like Grab, Gojek, Taobao Villages, CARSOME, and Tata 1mg are creatively stitching legacy systems together. By connecting fragmented ecosystems--drivers, merchants, communities, the digital platforms--they reveal a new model of value creation rooted in community, trust, and context.The future will not belong to those who destroy the past faster. It will belong to those who know how to mend it.

Are digital technologies really a silver bullet for development in the Global South?


Digital technologies are supposed to solve the challenges of climate change, projected population growth, land conflicts and food insecurity, especially in rural areas. Yet NGOs, government institutions, and private companies are increasingly adopting a trial-and-error approach as they recognize the limitations of transferring Western science and technologies to the global South.
 
This book presents the ambivalent practices and implications of digital pilot projects which aim to 'develop' both farming communities and locally adapted innovations in East Africa. Inspired by laboratory ethnographies in Science and Technology Studies, it explores the practices of testing and developing digital technologies in rural Tanzania. The multi-sited ethnography, which takes in agricultural fairs, conferences, documents, online courses, tech hubs, project offices, villages and fields, centres on three case studies, namely DAST (a digital land-formalisation tool), STAS (an AI system for agricultural productivity) and iPlus (an e-extension tool). Rather than viewing these technologies simply as welcome tools to promote connectivity, empowerment and increased production - as commonly advanced in development policy - this book foregrounds the (un)intended consequences of the planning, set-up, maintenance and results of digital pilot projects. Against the backdrop of conflicting logics between testing technologies and developing Tanzanian agriculture through them, this book considers their (un)predictable impacts on new actors, the character of development and the trial communities in rural Tanzania.
