Unlocking Quantum Information Technology

Opportunities for Business and Management

Creative thinking, which the most successful companies that develop the most innovative products rely on, has evolved into to creative resilience - the technique to persevere with problems and solve them faster. The approach will help business leaders create both the physical and mental agility to build an operating environment that supports successful ideation and adopts different ways of approaching complex problems. The reader will become more 'creatively resilient' and flexible to adopt non-habitual modes of thought that move them towards creative solutions that they can apply to very specific business and technical challenges. The basic framework is called 'Stormblending' - a four-phased approach that focuses on a collection of different tools that can be applied to deliver the value from each phase. The four phases are presented in the context of the full product development lifecycle. They are: <ol> <li>Immersion (Ethnographically inspired Contextual Inquiry/Voice of customer). </li> <li>Representation (How to best represent and frame specific problems and opportunities to create the right conditions for successful idea generation). </li> <li>Divergent thinking techniques to disrupt and reframe the problem as the reader will learn how to adopt non-habitual modes of thought. </li> <li>Emergence and Discovery (this when most we experience the 'A-Ha!' moment) </li> </ol>Traditionally, most companies make the mistake of stressing ideation only without thought to how the ideas are then prioritised, built upon, and turned into a reality for profitable growth. Practitioners and business professionals, from start-ups to global corporations, will gain an initial overview on creativity, the purpose of ideation, and what it means to translate insights into innovation in real-time - in the boardroom, during periods of introspection, or during the facilitation of cross functional teams and workshops that demand the specialist skills provided in this book.

How to Accomplish Successful Ideation through Creative Resilience

Creative Thinking for Business Leaders

Organizations today are navigating challenging contexts by tinkering with structures, supply chains, technology, and by adopting new ways of working. Management practices are being recalibrated on the go to develop modern, new age organizations that can better deliver on the required speed and agility. Crises, disruptions, and wicked problems have become a part of the business landscape. Interconnectedness and fragility are becoming trademark features of business challenges and organizations are working rapidly to respond to these challenges with solutions that are sustainable, acceptable to multiple stakeholders, and are value based and technology oriented. Leaders are seen to employ myriad strategies in these challenging environments in a bid to pursue sustainable growth.A deeper investigation of these strategies is required by management researchers in a bid to uncover and explore novel phenomena, significant variables of interest, as also theoretical frameworks that throw light on the new business models and ways of working. Researchers today, therefore, are tasked with realigning their research agendas and methodologies to offer conclusions that enable sensemaking of modern organizations and their growth strategies amidst complex organizational environments. Given the context of emerging trends, new age practices, and wide-spread application of emerging technologies in the world of business, this book offers a research-based perspective of effective solutions to common problems that modern, new age organizations face.The book will be of interest to researchers, practitioners, and managers working in Business, Management and Marketing; Human Resource Management; Leadership; Operations &amp; Information Management; Organizational Studies; Strategic Management; and Technology &amp; Innovation Management.

Strategies for Sustainable Growth in Modern Organizations

Navigate the MBA research journey with clear methodology, structure and confidence.

Research Methods for MBA Students

Today, organizations face significant pressure to rapidly innovate and respond to changing market demands, but many struggle to align engineering practices with overarching business goals. Agile and DevOps methodologies, often seen purely as technical solutions, can fail without proper alignment with executive-level expectations and objectives. Using a clear, actionable framework to effectively drive organizational change, this book addresses this critical gap by providing leaders with the tools and knowledge required to directly connect technical outputs to corporate strategy, ensuring development efforts consistently result in tangible business value.
Drawing on firsthand experiences in global enterprises, author Leo Bardelli demystifies Agile and DevOps methodologies, demonstrating how—when strategically implemented—they streamline processes, accelerate innovation, and deliver measurable impact that resonates with executives and board members alike. Structured around the most pressing pain points faced by senior managers and technical leaders, you’ll find essential topics such as maturity assessments, stakeholder engagement, strategic communication with executives, legacy system modernization, and effective risk management. Bardelli offers practical tools and actionable insights, including real-world templates, detailed case studies, maturity matrices, and KPIs tailored for clear communication with Board-level and executive stakeholders.
Unlike other technical guides that focus narrowly on engineering processes, Bridging the Gap uniquely blends technology and strategic business management, making, making these methodologies indispensable tools for sustained organizational growth and profitability.

Complex Engineering Systems – Modeling and Optimization

This book advances a central and urgent thesis: in the hyperconnected economy of Logistics 4.0, cybersecurity is no longer a technical safeguard at the periphery of logistics systems but the primary infrastructure of supply chain continuity, economic security and sustainable development. Digital logistics has evolved into a cyber-physical ecosystem in which data flows, autonomous decisions and algorithmic coordination shape material reality. In this environment, cyber risk becomes systemic risk, transforming security from an operational concern into a strategic determinant of organisational legitimacy, competitiveness and resilience. The monograph reframes cybersecurity as a governance architecture integrating digital infrastructure, risk intelligence, institutional accountability and technological foresight.The book offers a synthesis, demonstrating that digitalisation, cybersecurity and sustainability are mutually reinforcing rather than competing agendas. Without secure digital architectures, transparent ESG reporting, reliable traceability and accountable automation remain unattainable. Trust is the scarcest resource in digital supply chains, generated through verifiable data, secure infrastructures and credible governance.More than a catalogue of tools or regulatory recommendations, the volume delivers an integrated analytical architecture for understanding and governing cyber risk in Logistics 4.0 environments. It shows that digital transformation restructures supply chains into cyber-physical systems whose stability, efficiency and legitimacy depend on the integrity of their digital foundations, and that cybersecurity is a collective supply-chain capability rather than an individual organisational attribute.The work sets out a governance logic that guides organisations from digitalisation to resilience, treating Information Security Management Systems, standards and security operations frameworks as instruments for stabilising inter-organisational cooperation, maintaining service continuity and sustaining market legitimacy. It also outlines practitioner and research pathways centred on federated logistics data governance, scenario-based cyber resilience exercises, digital traceability architectures and integrating cybersecurity metrics into ESG reporting.
