This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is free to read on the Oxford Academic platform and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. In an era when economic, social, and geopolitical uncertainties are reshaping the world of management, Management Education and the Rise of Uncertainty of Global Business offers a timely, collective reflection on how business and management schools can prepare tomorrow's leaders. Drawing on insights from international experts, the book reimagines the internationalization of management education--not as a mere export of Western norms but as a catalyst for inclusion, peace, and mutual understanding. Showcasing innovative institutions and programmes across Asia, Africa, Europe, and Latin America, the book highlights models of 'inclusive internationalization' that prioritize diverse practices, co-created pedagogy, and contextualized knowledge. It also explores shifting student expectations: a search for meaning, a drive for social impact, and a readiness to address twenty-first-century challenges like climate change, inequality, and technology. Amid growing pressure to specialize, sometimes at the expense of a common educational foundation, this book champions a universal vision for management education--one that develops adaptable, critical, and responsible professionals for a rapidly changing world.

Management Education and the Rise of Uncertainty of Global Business

Wie kann ein Unternehmen in Zeiten unerbittlichen Wettbewerbs nachhaltiges und effizientes Wachstum erzielen? Ji Qi, der Architekt dreier an der NASDAQ notierter Unternehmen - Ctrip, Home Inns und schließlich der H World Group -, liefert in diesem wegweisenden Werk tiefgründige Antworten und Reflexionen. Mehr als eine Autobiografie ist dieses Buch eine transformative Denklandkarte, die philosophische Betrachtungen, wissenschaftliche Prinzipien und hart erarbeitete Geschäftspraktiken miteinander verbindet. Ji Qi argumentiert, dass bahnbrechender Erfolg einen grundlegenden Wandel erfordert: von der reinen Gewinnmaximierung hin zur Schaffung echten Mehrwerts. Er zeigt auf, wie das Streben eines Gründers nach Wahrheit, Güte und Schönheit die Unternehmenskultur, das Produktdesign und das bleibende Vermächtnis prägt. Darüber hinaus wird die Entwicklung seiner H World Group zu einer eindrucksvollen Parabel unserer Zeit, die veranschaulicht, wie "disruptive Innovation" ein Akt der Neugestaltung ist und wie "Einfachheit" die höchste Form der Raffinesse darstellt.

Das Reich des Herzens

An insider's view exposing the most urgent issue in US big giving-and how to address it With Americans increasingly concerned about billionaires controlling our public funds and everyday lives, Glen Galaich-social impact expert, nonprofit leader, and Stupski Foundation CEO-delivers his personal conversion story from believing in strong, consolidated donor power to advocating for more community engagement in foundation funding decisions. In Control: Why Big Giving Falls Short, Galaich offers an incisive critique of the United States' approach to charitable Big Giving and its systems and culture that, he argues, encourage excessive donor control. Most people don't realize (or don't want to talk about) why today $2 trillion in US charitable funds are essentially stockpiled by big donors and foundations too focused on growing endowments through for-profit investments rather than the timely, vital disbursement of these funds back to our communities and nonprofits. Galaich introduces us to the system-wide "Mindset of Control" that allows continued, outsized influence of major donors over charitable assets legally and ethically no longer their money. He discusses how financial and legal systems, combined with outdated traditions, have given big donors a false sense of ownership over effectively public assets, and kept private foundations and donor-advised funds from comprehensively engaging communities. It's a role in the system that Galaich questions if many big donors even want to play. Inside the book: <ul> <li>Revealing examples of how excessive donor control maintains an ineffective culture of Big Giving and limits community engagement</li> <li>Storytelling that holds a mirror up to the sector's behaviors, myths, and "fake rules" that impede social progress for working-class and perennially under-resourced communities</li> <li>A rare peek into the inner workings of private foundations and how grantmaking decisions are made behind the closed doors of nontransparent institutions</li> </ul> Galaich says the good news is that we created this system, and we can change it. Control offers first steps toward a game-changing shift in this massive sector that affects everyone, showing new roles we can play and fairer mindsets. Challenging and principled, Control is essential reading for anyone interested in this country's socioeconomic trends or in changing our world.

Every year, college students across the country seek internships to build experience in their chosen fields. In this highly competitive job market, students and recent graduates need to seek out every possible opportunity to differentiate themselves and demonstrate that they are ready to roll up their sleeves and get to work. One important way to do so is an internship in the private sector, which can lead to a full-time job with a well-regarded organization. Yet the process of finding an internship can appear challenging. This book can make it easier. For more than a decade, finance professional Charles Fishkin has been preparing students to thrive in internship programs. In this book, he shares his advice for those who are seeking a private-sector internship.

Several chapters offer advice on best practices for crafting effective resumes, networking, and interviewing to get the position. Fishkin offers checklists, action items, real-life scenarios, and practical suggestions, each arising from the experiences of former interns and hiring managers. The heart of the book focuses on the nine to twelve weeks of the internship itself, with tips on how to interact with supervisors and colleagues, how to learn and apply new skills, and how to solve problems and address challenges that arise. Internships in the Private Sector is the first full-length guide to securing and making the most of an internship. This book will help level the playing field, providing students with the tools and support they need to perform to the fullest extent of their abilities and lay the foundation for a strong start to their careers.

Port cities of the world are critical nodes for international trade and socio-economic development. Yet they bear several costs, of which congestion and pollution, which affect the local environment and population. In certain places, living near the port -together with related industrial and logistical activities -is synonym of adverse health outcomes, resulting in several diseases and above-average unplanned hospital admissions and mortality. Decades of port-city physical separation have not eliminated such issues, since deep-water facilities, even outside urban cores, impact local populations and reach port and non-port cities through extensive trucking flows. Specific traffic, like cruise, keep operating within dense urban environments.This book is one of the first dedicated volumes on such matters, with contributions from scholars in several continents (Europe, Asia, the Americas, Africa, and Oceania). It is highly interdisciplinary, covering geography, history, economics, management sciences, regional science, sociology, public and comparative law, physics, energy and industrial engineering, urban and spatial planning, epidemiology, architecture, biology, and environmental sciences. This volume offers an overview of current environmental and health issues in port cities. It starts by presenting the mitigation and perception of port pollution. Next, it examines the health impacts of ports in a historical perspective and reviews and synthesizes the variety of existing approaches to measure the health impacts of ports and shipping. Finally, it proposes a reflection on a multi-level governance and policies.This book is a comprehensive resource for a wide readership, including academics and upper-level students interested in maritime transport, port management and sustainability, as well as those in public management, planning and governance.
