Crypto Degenerates and the Rise of the Global Casino Economy

Burnout can’t be solved with just perks or stress-reduction workshops. It's solved by changing how leaders engage their teams—a practical shift that requires no new resources. Grounded in peer-reviewed research, Relational Energy shows leaders how small changes in everyday workplace conversations can spark energy, revive exhausted teams, and build workplaces where people thrive. Every leader is dealing with burnout and looking for something they can actually do tomorrow morning, and this is it. In this book, leadership scholar Amy Young, with Kim Cameron, reveals how everyday communication creates relational energy, the powerful force that fuels engagement, creativity, resilience, health and well-being, and performance across teams. Drawing on interviews with energizing leaders and weaving in supporting peer-reviewed research, Young unlocks the secrets to thriving amid uncertainty and disruption due to AI automation, fragile labor markets, cultural divisiveness, and relentless workplace demands. Through vivid real-world examples, you'll discover how energizing leaders sustain their own vitality while lifting their teams at the same time, simply by rethinking how they approach everyday conversations. You'll learn how to turn those ordinary interactions into extraordinary ones, providing a practical, no-cost antidote to workplace stress and burnout. In this book, you will learn <ul><li>how relational energy promotes workplace well-being and performance, creating the foundation for sustainable organizational success;</li><li>strategies energizing leaders use to maintain their own energy levels while navigating the same modern workplace pressures that impact their teams;</li><li>how to have workplace conversations that generate healthy perceptions of challenge and stress and reduce burnout while building resilience and team solidarity;</li><li>specific language choices (wording, pronoun selection, questions, and declarative statements) that empower employees, elevate teams, and drive productivity; and</li><li>how to acknowledge hard realities while building genuine hope and resilience, avoiding toxic positivity that saps energy.</li></ul> Practical, research driven, and immediately applicable, Relational Energy shows leaders how small changes in language can create extraordinary impact, recharging people, teams, and entire organizations.

Burnout isn’t solved with perks—it’s solved with communication. Grounded in peer-reviewed research, Relational Energy shows leaders how to use everyday language to spark energy, revive exhausted teams, and build workplaces where people thrive. Every leader is dealing with burnout and looking for something they can actually do tomorrow morning, and this is it. In this book, leadership scholars Amy Young and Kim Cameron reveal how everyday communication creates relational energy, the powerful force that fuels engagement, creativity, resilience, health and well-being, and performance across teams. Drawing on research from positive psychology and decades of work with leaders and organizations, the authors show how simple shifts in communication can transform workplaces from drained and disconnected to energized and thriving. The best part is, these changes have big impact but come with no cost. In this book, leaders learn how to <ul><li>use the language of belonging to help employees feel valued, respected, and connected;</li><li>turn everyday conversations into sources of relational energy that boost motivation and performance;</li><li>build trust through respectful dialogue, listening, and authentic presence;</li><li>navigate difficult conversations without draining morale or relationships;</li><li>create positive team interactions that spread energy across organizations; and</li><li>replace burnout cultures with communication practices that spark engagement and well-being.</li></ul> Practical, research-driven, and immediately applicable, Relational Energy shows leaders how small changes in language can create extraordinary impact, recharging people, teams, and entire organizations.

How to Beat Burnout and Ignite Your Team

Relational Energy

Four-time World Series Champion and Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts pulls back the curtain on one of the most quietly powerful leadership philosophies in professional sports: an unshakable belief in the power of optimism, accountability, and human connection. Baseball is a game of failure, where even the best players succeed three times out of ten. For Roberts, that statistic represents an opportunity. In Relentless Positivity, he reveals how leading through uncertainty, pressure, and loss has taught him the secret to long-term success: meeting people where they are, embracing the mess, and still having the courage to show a relentless, almost irrational positivity that helps your team step into its full potential. Drawing on stories from the clubhouse and the world stage—from his iconic stolen base with the 2004 Red Sox to a decade of managing the Dodgers to World Series glory—Roberts shows how leaders can transform setbacks into strength and criticism into motivation. Along the way, he shares nine cornerstone principles that have shaped his approach to leadership and life, including: <ul><li>Meet Once: Communicate clearly the first time to build trust and avoid confusion.</li><li>Put Down the Sword: Choose connection over conflict.</li><li>The Game Will Honor You: Focus on doing the little things right.</li><li>Find the Good: Lead with optimism, even when the scoreboard says otherwise.</li></ul> Blending stories from a championship locker room with the insights of a master motivator, Roberts delivers a field-tested guide for anyone leading through complexity, whether in the stadium, in the conference room, or at home. Written for a time when our models for leadership are rapidly evolving—in sports and beyond—Relentless Positivity is a timely manifesto for building strong teams, resilient cultures, and sustaining personal success in any field.

How to Build Teams Worth Believing In

Relentless Positivity

A Financial Times Book of the YearNo other phenomenon has shaped human history as decisively as capitalism. It structures how we live and work, how we think about ourselves and others, how we organise our politics. Sven Beckert situates the story of capitalism within the largest conceivable geographical and historical framework in this fascinating new book.Capitalism, argues Beckert, was born global. Emerging from merchant communities across Asia, Africa and Europe, capitalism's radical recasting of economic life rooted itself only gradually. Then it burst onto the world scene, as European states and merchants built a powerful alliance that would propel them across the oceans. This epic drama corresponded at no point to an idealised dream of free markets. All along, state-backed institutions and imperial expansions shaped its dynamics.Capitalism decentres the European perspective, highlighting agency, resistance, innovation and ruthless coercion around the world through to the present with the rise of Asian economies, particularly China. Sven Beckert doesn't merely add up capitalism's debits and credits in this monumental book, but allows us to think afresh about the past to help us re-imagine the future.

A Global History

Capitalism

Was unterscheidet eine Kriegswirtschaft von einem Wirtschaftskrieg? Ist Globalisierung nur in Friedenszeiten möglich, und führt Krieg zwangsläufig zur Deglobalisierung? In diesem Buch befragt der Autor die Wirtschaftswissenschaft zum Krieg und die Militärwissenschaft zur Wirtschaft. So entsteht eine interdisziplinäre Betrachtung des Verhältnisses von Markt und Staat in Kriegs- und Krisenzeiten. Neben den klassischen Lehrmeinungen bezieht der Autor auch Themen mit ein, die zunehmend an Bedeutung gewinnen, wie Waffenlieferungen, Sanktionen oder Privatarmeen.
Dieses Buch ist keine Kriegsberichtserstattung sondern einem wissenschaftlichen Anspruch verpflichtet. Dennoch ist der globale Zeitenwirbel, den wir gerade erleben, für diese zweite Auflage innerhalb von zwei Jahren Herausforderung und Chance zugleich. Zum dominierenden Analysefeld des Ukraine-Krieges und den Rückblicken auf Vietnam oder Irak stoßen in dieser überarbeiteten zweiten Auflage die Spannungen im Nahen Osten. Ihren konzentrierten Ausdruck findet diese Erweiterung in einem eigenständigen Abschnitt zum Vergleich zwischen Ukraine-Krieg und Iran-Krieg. Für die deutsche Wirtschaft und Politik finden unter anderem neue Beschlüsse von Bundestag und NATO zur Finanzierung von Verteidigungsausgaben und zur militärischen Unterstützung Dritter Eingang.
„Wirtschaft und Krieg“ richtet sich an angehende und praktizierende Wirtschaftler, Militärmitarbeiter bei der Bundeswehr, Beschäftigte in Organisationen mit Verteidigungs- und Sicherheitsaufgaben sowie in Lehr- und Forschungseinrichtungen.

Verhältnis von Ökonomie und Politik in Krisenzeiten

Wirtschaft und Krieg

From the author of&nbsp;A People's Guide to Capitalism, a clear-eyed look at the world of cryptocurrencies, cutting through the glitz and the scams to reveal how crypto mirrors and exacerbates the crises of capitalism 
 
Cryptocurrencies have gone from being fringe investments relevant only to hardcore adherents to a multi-trillion industry with a direct line to Donald Trump's White House. The promises of crypto are wide-ranging, preying on a basic reality: people are alienated by an economic system that has excluded them and wonder if cryptocurrencies can offer a more transparent and inclusive alternative. 
 
Enter&nbsp;Crypto-Capitalism, Hadas Thier's deft, accessible examination of the rise and fall and rise again of crypto. Drawing on years of reporting on the industry, its insiders, and the ordinary people impacted by its wild peaks and busts, Thier explains how cryptocurrencies work, elucidates the context and implications of their rise, and debunks the utopian mythology that animates their boosters. 
 
By showing that systemic exploitation and domination are inherent in a crisis-ridden capitalist economy and are matters of class power, not technology, Thier convincingly cuts through the froth and the lies of financial dystopia. Along the way, she exposes the dangerous consequences of crypto's rise and offers alternative avenues for imagining what economic democracy could actually be.

The New Financial Dystopia

Crypto-Capitalism

Evolutionary Economics and Social Complexity Science

This is the first book to present a new approach of institutional design as an evolutionary applied policy based on coherent conceptualization and methodology, and to study the actuality and implications of diversifying real/virtual community currencies. In contrast to a de facto standard theory, an institutional ecosystem can be composed of various institutions that continue to coexist with changing relative frequencies. In this view, diversified monetary institutions with local rules are feasible and realistic. Community currencies are worldwide attempts to redress such problems as financial instability, chronic stagnation, and decline of communities caused by globalization of the economy. Considering those alternative movements as a new type of policy, "evolutionist institutional design", this book clarifies the feasibility and significance of community currencies in the current era of globalization. The book also provides a better understanding than mainstream approaches of such platform institutions as money that determine fundamental means of cognition and action of interacting agents. Money is a symbolically generalized communication medium in the mesodomain that mediates between socioeconomic performance and patterns in the macrodomain and motives and cognitive frameworks in the microdomain. Conventional national systems of money and finance are platform institutions that determine basic replicators for a capitalistic market economy to evolve. In contrast, community currencies conveying both economic and social/cultural values are distinct platform institutions that are expected to endogenously change such basic replicators in outer and inner institutions for agents to a noncapitalistic market economy. These currencies are considered target institutions for "media design" in the framework of evolutionist institutional design.
