Vance N: WHY MARKETS LIE

WHY MARKETS LIE

The primary objective of this work is to develop a behavioral basis for an AI algorithm to assist managers of finance, production, and marketing divisions of firms in imperfect markets. Production, sales revenue, external finance, and networth (market value of the fixed assets) have the pivotal role as objectives. However, all of them cannot be maximized simultaneously due to the interdependence among them. The managers tend to pursue the most valuable objective using the most productive strategy at each point of time. This was utilized as a basis for the AI algorithm. Non-linearities in the switches in objectives and strategies are a short run phenomenon while swaps will be preferred if firms have a long run advantage. Such observed phenomena were also incorporated in the specification of the AI algorithms. The important results are as follows. (i) In most industries the shortage of demand is not a constraint. Instead, the ability of firms to increase their strategic supply is dominant. (ii) Most firms pursue strategic supply based on the capital stock available. This indicates a preference for external finance. (iii) In the short run firms utilize working capital finance and selling costs to ensure that the sales revenue achieved is commensurate with the strategic supply. (iv) Thus, the postulate that expected demand determines the strategic supply as well as the profit maximization postulate for the short run do not appear as the priorities.

A Dynamic and Stochastic Framework

Business Taxation in a Volatile World

Is your company moving as fast as you think it is? Most organizations aren't--and it's costing them.Many executives would argue that their companies are moving with speed. But new research reveals the opposite. As speed becomes more critical to survival in today's unpredictable world, most companies are actually getting slower, held back by processes, technologies, and structures that once made them successful.This perception-execution gap around speed can make or break companies--yet most leaders don't know how to set their organizations up for success. In The High-Velocity Organization, Suketu Gandhi, chair of the global strategic operations practice at Kearney, offers a practical solution. By combining speed of insights, decisions, and actions, leaders can increase their velocity exponentially across the organization. Gandhi introduces a five-part framework for operationalizing intelligent speed at scale: <ul><li>Build enterprise sensing capabilities that enable a company to perceive opportunities and threats.</li><li>Break down silos to enable organizational adaptability.</li><li>Empower agile teams by encouraging decision-making and fostering collaboration.</li><li>Scale with intelligent automation to distribute insights, increase efficiency, expand capacity, and support decentralized execution at scale.</li><li>Measure what matters using new metrics that determine true competitive speed in an accelerated marketplace.</li></ul>Based on proprietary research and filled with detailed examples, The High-Velocity Organization explores the architecture, technology, and leadership needed to put speed at the heart of strategy and execution so that your company can stay adaptable while moving forward--fast.

Sensing, Deciding, and Acting at Speed

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.

Daily Habits for Leading from Any Level

90 Days to Grow Your Influence

Sustainable business is no longer optional--it's the strategy that will determine who leads and who gets left behind.Climate change is not just a future threat--it's a current reality, reshaping markets, supply chains, and entire industries. Rising temperatures, resource scarcity, and mounting waste are driving regulatory pressure, investor scrutiny, and consumer demand for sustainable practices. For business leaders, this isn't just an operational challenge--it's a strategic disruption. Companies that fail to adapt risk being swept aside by forces they can no longer ignore.In The Ultimate Disruption: Rethinking Business in a World Transformed by Climate Change, INSEAD professors Atalay Atasu and Luk Van Wassenhove provide an essential road map for thriving in this new era. Drawing on decades of research and real-world case studies, they show why sustainability must be treated as a core business imperative, not a compliance exercise or marketing slogan. The authors introduce a framework for rethinking strategy, redefining value propositions, and reinventing business models to integrate environmental value alongside customer utility and profit.Through compelling examples--from Polygreen's zero-waste transformation on a Greek island to Schneider Electric's global decarbonization initiatives--the book illustrates how companies are turning environmental constraints into opportunities for innovation and growth. Each chapter tackles critical steps: building the business case for sustainability; revisiting value potential; overcoming operational and scaling challenges; and leveraging partnerships, tech, and new business models to deliver shared value and profitability.Sustainability is no longer a cost--it's a competitive advantage. The Ultimate Disruption equips leaders with the strategies and tools to navigate the climate-driven transformation of business ecosystems and emerge stronger than ever.

Rethinking Business in a World Transformed by Climate Change

The Ultimate Disruption

Artificial intelligence has crossed the liability Rubicon. It is no longer a backend IT experiment governed by soft ethics, voluntary frameworks, and vague policy statements; it is a material financial asset driving enterprise revenue and unprecedented legal exposure. As we transition into Industry 5.0, algorithms are making autonomous, consequential decisions at machine speed. Yet, corporate boards and risk committees are attempting to govern these gigahertz systems using static compliance checklists designed for a slower, simpler era. The result is a looming crisis of algorithmic discrimination, regulatory friction, and catastrophic reputational decay. When an opaque, black-box model hallucinates financial advice or leaks proprietary trade secrets, the ensuing failure cascade can destroy billions in market capitalization overnight.AI Governance and Risk Management provides the definitive, boardroom-ready blueprint for surviving the fragmented global regulatory dragnet. This book dismantles the illusion of traditional "Human-in-the-Loop" oversight, proving that true algorithmic safety requires hard, architectural constraints. Drawing on decades of technology operations and academic leadership, the text translates classical financial auditing principles into executable machine logic. The author brings unparalleled practical experience-from supporting six Silicon Valley startups in client-facing roles to develop computer vision use cases, to leading over 30 continuous improvement projects for Cisco Systems. Having authored foundational texts on Segregation of Duties (SOD) and Hierarchical SOD two decades ago, and backed by 15 years of teaching financial risk management, this expertise culminates in the AI Integrity Framework (AIIF). This Hamiltonian approach empowers organizations to embed continuous improvement cycles and strict SOD directly into their deployment pipelines.Readers will discover how to engineer automated "Build Breaks," architect deterministic kill switches, and secure the unstructured data supply chain against copyright contamination and intellectual property theft. By shifting from reactive public relations to proactive "Governance as Code," Chief Risk Officers, legal counsel, and audit committees can mathematically prove fiduciary control to regulators across overlapping jurisdictions, from California to the European Union.Authored by a veteran industry practitioner, creator of five previous Wiley &amp; Sons texts, and current developer of the Industry 5.0 and AI curriculum at Santa Clara University, this release is not a theoretical ethics manual. It is an uncompromising operational survival guide. It provides the exact structural tools necessary to transform artificial intelligence from an unquantified off-balance-sheet liability into a fully auditable, legally defensible, and highly profitable enterprise asset.
