Rethinking Leadership Development

Contributions from Theory and Research

Dodging and Confronting Stigma examines the lives of people who were stigmatized or marginalized in Japan’s late classical and medieval ages. Often characterized as beggars, they in fact pursued a wide range of occupations and lifestyles, even while haunted by discrimination and exploitation. They developed skills, acquired property rights, and even manipulated the elite who controlled them, thereby achieving some degree of self-determination. Outcasts are frequently mentioned in the records of Buddhist temples, and the variety of references provides evidence for the many ways they participated in medieval religious life: as cleansers of pollution, as cremation and burial workers, as objects of salvific efforts—and as guards and enforcers in an increasingly militarized religious establishment. 	 	 	Complex and stratified, outcast society as a whole included people who demanded their rights through litigation and arms, just as did others in Japan’s medieval world. The emergence, especially in the late medieval age, of people who occupied marginal positions in society—neither wholly stigmatized nor wholly free of stigma—complicates the picture. Such marginal people included bearers of Japanese culture such as garden designers, theatrical performers, and shamans, making it impossible to simply write them off as social pariahs or victims of discrimination. Janet Goodwin demonstrates that outcast and marginal society was a complex one whose members fulfilled diverse functions necessary to medieval society, formed complex relationships with institutions and individuals of power, and made enduring contributions to medieval culture. 	 	 	Most studies of late classical and medieval Japan focus on elites: monarchs and courtiers, powerful warriors, and high-ranking religious figures. Indeed, these are the people who appear prominently in sources of the time. However, tantalizing pictures of outcast and marginal people appear in an array of sources such as aristocrats’ diaries, legal documents, tales, scrolls, and screen paintings, among others. In emphasizing people at the bottom of society and on its margins, and the ways that they dodged and confronted stigma, this book broadens the picture of Japanese society of the time.

How to Succeed by Building Relationships and Playing the Long Game

Take It Personal

Lorsque la Covid-19 a atteint le continent africain, beaucoup prédisaient la catastrophe. Contre toute attente, l'Afrique a montré une résilience surprenante, avec un taux de mortalité relativement faible. Mais cette apparente résistance masque des défis profonds : l'amateurisme des autorités politiques congolaises dans la communication et la sensibilisation, les enjeux financiers liés à l'aide internationale, les conséquences politiques sur la vie nationale, et même des effets écologiques inattendus.
Par ailleurs, la pandémie a révélé la fragilité de la politique extérieure de la République démocratique du Congo. Alors que des pays voisins exploitent avec clarté leurs objectifs diplomatiques, la RDC peine à définir sa stratégie internationale, exposant le pays à des tensions territoriales et à des pressions géopolitiques.
Cette étude offre une analyse originale et critique des enjeux contemporains liés au Covid-19, tout en soulignant le potentiel du savoir endogène congolais pour contribuer à la lutte mondiale contre la pandémie.

The Trust Architect is a leadership doctrine for a world where technology moves faster than human judgment, and trust has become the most fragile-and most valuable-currency. In an era shaped by cyber risk, artificial intelligence, and invisible digital dependencies, traditional leadership models no longer hold. This book challenges leaders to rethink authority, responsibility, and decision-making in systems where failure is silent, breaches are systemic, and ethics lag behind innovation. Blending cybersecurity strategy, organizational psychology, and executive leadership, The Trust Architect introduces a new mental model for building resilient institutions-where trust is engineered, not assumed. Written for CXOs, CISOs, board members, and senior leaders, this book is not about tools or checklists. It is about mindset. It asks one uncomfortable question: who designs trust when systems outgrow human control?

Organizational Behaviour

Banking and finance has emerged as a leading sector of the Indian economy. Notwithstanding this, due to its technical nature, the sector has by and large remained outside the purview of the uninitiated readers. The Routledge Handbook of Indian Banking and Finance is devoted to analytical accounts of various aspects of Indian banking and finance and tries to address this vacuum.Written in non-technical language by prominent academics and industry experts, each chapter explores the basic tenets and current challenges within Indian banking and finance across three core areas: institutions, markets, and regulation. Institutions cover issues relating to commercial banks, co-operative banks, technological aspects of banking, mutual funds, insurance, or financial inclusion. Various markets are covered as well, and these include equity, bond, commodities, private equity, forex, money, real estate finance, or alternative assets. The regulatory section addresses the regulation of banking, the risk management practices and norms in the banking sector, insurance, pension funds, the securities market, and the role of government in finance. The chapters provide a comprehensive narrative tracing the evolutionary chronicle of a particular segment of the financial sector while delving into current issues and speculating on the shape of things to come.Offering comprehensive coverage, this book will be a go-to resource for beginners and specialists alike. It will be of interest to those working with corporate finance, banking, finance, economics, business and industry, management and marketing, and banking- and finance-related law.
