Benevides R: Taxation of Big Tech in
Latin America

Taxation of Big Tech in Latin America

What multinationals need to know about the region's evolving digital tax rules

'I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter into one of the most creative periods of my life.' Steve JobsSteve Jobs in Exile tells the largely unexplored story of the dozen years Steve Jobs spent building NeXt in the aftermath of his firing from Apple, the company he founded, in 1985. This period would see Jobs at his most creative, vulnerable and intense. It would redefine him as a designer and a leader, ultimately leading to the later resurgence and dominance of Apple following his triumphant return. Yet this crucial period remains woefully under-covered. Award-winning writer Geoffrey Cain changes that.Utilising a trove of new material, including dozens of hours of unbroadcast footage of Jobs at NeXT's meetings and retreats, new interviews and unpublished oral histories with Jobs and his colleagues, new first-hand material and countless internal documents, Steve Jobs in Exile is the definitive history of the most remarkable period in the life of Steve Jobs.

Beyond the Ticket: The Complete Software Support Engineer is the definitive guide to a profession that is far more technically demanding and strategically valuable than most organisations acknowledge. Written by Michael Temitope Bali, this book covers the full arc of software support engineering, from defining the role and mastering essential skills, to troubleshooting frameworks, queue management, incident response, AI-powered tooling, metrics, and long-term career growth. Whether you are new to the field or looking to advance from mid-level to principal engineer, this book gives you the frameworks, vocabulary, and professional respect to approach the work with intention. It is not a stepping stone; it is a destination.

What lies underneath digital platforms—their invisible architecture and governance that determine everything visible. Every time you unlock your phone, stream a show, or start your car, you’re entering a world shaped by thousands of engineering decisions you’ll never see. Most platform conversations fixate on their visible canopy—business models, user experience, competitive strategy—the “leaves,” in a sense. Platforms by Amrit Tiwana excavates their roots. The book begins with a simple DNA test that separates authentic from faux platforms, then traces the forces turning tractors, pacemakers, and elevators into platforms. Using the platform trinity, the author explores principles behind why platforms behave so differently, why superior technology doesn’t always win, and why—unlike products that reach a final form—platforms never stop evolving. From there the book explains platforms’ two hidden root systems: The first system, architecture, shows how Lego-like “modular” design, frozen interfaces, and prefab building blocks let thousands of outsiders contribute pieces that snap into colossal systems. The second system, governance, describes where architecture confronts human behavior. Elegant architecture flails with poor governance, so both demand discipline.

Human creativity is a skill that can be cultivated over a person's lifetime, supporting imagination, adaptability, and resilience. Drawing from decades of established creativity scholarship, Human Creativity in the Age of AI offers a guide to begin and sustain this journey. Rather than treating AI as a technical add-on or substitute for human thinking, this book examines whether and how to integrate AI intentionally into the creative process. The result is a collection of practical frameworks and resources for strengthening human creative capacity. These are designed to help navigate human + AI co-creation and foster meaningful innovation in our technologically mediated world.Designed for flexibility, the book can be read cover to cover, explored chapter by chapter, or opened at any point for reflection, discovery, and practical application.

Leading an IT services or consulting team isn't like leading other teams. The pressure is constant, the customers are visible, the escalations are real, and the margin for error is thin. Most leadership books were written from a distance. This one wasn't.Surrounded by Fire is a practical leadership guide for managers and executives in IT services and consulting environments... the people responsible for delivery, quality, and the humans doing the work. It was written from inside thirty years of that work, across managed services, consulting, and technical delivery organizations, by a leader who has managed through go-lives, burnout, escalations, talent crises, and the relentless pressure of keeping a service organization performing at a high standard.The book's central premise is simple. In a high-pressure environment, the leader is either a thermostat or a thermometer. A thermometer reflects the temperature of the room. A thermostat sets it. The difference between those two things... in a critical escalation, in a performance conversation, in a team that is quietly burning out... is everything.The book's philosophy is adaptive servant leadership. The conviction that caring for the people doing the work and holding them to a high standard are not competing obligations. They are the same obligation, practiced well.Across thirty chapters and six parts, Surrounded by Fire delivers frameworks that work under real conditions... not ideal ones. How to use CSAT as a diagnostic tool, not just a score. How to build psychological safety in a team that handles live customer environments. How to delegate without losing accountability. How to recognize burnout before it becomes attrition. How to develop leaders who leave stronger than they arrived. How to stay calm when the room isn't.These are not theories. They are tools... built, tested, broken, and rebuilt across real engagements with real consequences.If you lead people through the kind of work that doesn't stop when conditions get hard, this book was written for you.

'The Principle of Democracy and International Tax Law. Taxation without Representation?': International tax law faces challenges with respect to the legitimation and representation requirements of the German constitutional principle of democracy. Based on the close connection between taxation and democracy, this work highlights deficits in the internal and external system of international tax law in the realization of the principle of democracy and develops approaches to mitigate them.

AI will not save a company whose mindset is built for yesterday. The AI economy is not a technology upgrade. It is a test of leadership, courage, speed, and organizational adaptability. Companies can buy the tools, launch the pilots, train the workforce, and still fail if they attach AI to old assumptions, slow governance, rigid roles, and outdated ways of working. This book makes the case for the AI Mindset Layer: the cognitive and organizational system that turns AI from technical potential into quantum change. Through the 6C Framework, leaders learn how to build conviction, capability, courage, collective intelligence, change ambidexterity, and commitment across the enterprise. The message is blunt: stop managing AI adoption. Start activating AI mindset. The future will not reward the companies with the most pilots. It will reward the companies bold enough to self-disrupt before the market does.

Rewiring Organizations for the AI Economy

The AI Mindset Layer

An acclaimed New York Times Magazine writer brings us into the world of the controversial technology firm Palantir and its very colorful and outspoken CEO, Alex Karp, tracing the ascent of Big Data, the rise of surveillance technology, and the shifting global balance of power in the 21st century. 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 US 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 US military, dozens of federal agencies, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the 21st century. Its 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 cofounder Peter Thiel. In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger explores the world of Alex Karp, Palantir, and the future that they are leading us toward. It is an urgent and illuminating work about one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and powerful companies, whose technology is at the leading edge of the surveillance state.
