Par Dietmar Grichnik, Manuel Hess, Michael Greger, Andreas Goeldi, Florian Schweitzer. 2024

einen großen Binnenmarkt, auf dem aber keine Technologieunternehmen vom Kaliber globaler Big Techs wie Apple, Alphabet/Google, Amazon, Meta/Facebook oder Microsoft gelistet sind. In der ersten Digitalisierungswelle des Internets genossen die USA durch ihren homogenen Heimatmarkt einen klaren Wachstumsvorteil. Dies mag sich durch maschinelle Übersetzungstools und weitere KI-unterstützte Lösungen ändern. Hierzu muss die Skalierung von europäischen Unternehmen erlernt werden. Sie ist eine entscheidende Fähigkeit in einem Spiel auf Zeit: Start-ups müssen wachsen, bevor ihre Konkurrenz aus anderen Start-ups oder etablierten Unternehmen an ihnen vorbeizieht. Dazu gilt es, den gestiegenen Anforderungen an die soziale und ökologische Nachhaltigkeit sowie Unternehmensführung (ESG) gerecht zu werden. Dieses Buch vermittelt Leitlinien für GründerInnen, Mitarbeitende, Investoren/Investorinnen, Mentoren/Mentorinnen und weitere Stakeholder von skalierenden Start-ups, sogenannten "Scale-ups", die sie beim schnellen und nachhaltigen Wachstum unterstützen. Sie entwickeln damit ein besseres Verständnis für verschiedenste Herausforderungen bei der Skalierung ihres Unternehmens und meistern diese besser, wie beispielsweise die Entwicklung und Führung ihres Teams, die Bewertung von Wachstums- und Finanzierungsoptionen sowie die Implementierung effizienter Organisationsstrukturen und Kommunikationsprozesse. Die LeserInnen profitieren konkret von: - einer Strukturierung der Skalierung, basierend auf einem iterativen Prozess-Framework; - einem durchgehenden Fokus auf für den Kapitalmarkt relevante ESG-Kriterien; - Handlungsempfehlungen inklusive digitaler Tools, welche sie bei der Skalierung ihrer Unternehmen unterstützen.The Stolen Wealth of Slavery: A Case for Reparations
Par David Montero. 2024
Publishers Weekly&’s &“Top 10&” Spring 2024 This groundbreaking book tracks the massive wealth amassed from slavery from pre-Civil War to…
today, showing how our modern economy was built on the backs of enslaved Black people—and lays out a clear argument for reparations that shows exactly what was stolen, who stole it, and to whom it is owed. In this timely, powerful, investigative history, The Stolen Wealth of Slavery, Emmy Award-nominated journalist David Montero follows the trail of the massive wealth amassed by Northern corporations throughout America&’s history of enslavement. It has long been maintained by many that the North wasn&’t complicit in the horrors of slavery. The truth, however, is that large Northern banks—including well-known institutions like Citibank, Bank of New York, and Bank of America—were critical to the financing of slavery; that they saw their fortunes rise dramatically from their involvement in the business of enslavement; and that white business leaders and their surrounding communities created enormous wealth from the enslavement and abuse of Black bodies.The Stolen Wealth of Slavery grapples with facts that will be a revelation to many: Most white Southern enslavers were not rich—many were barely making ends meet—with Northern businesses benefitting the most from bondage-based profits. And some of the very Northerners who would be considered pro-Union during the Civil War were in fact anti-abolition, seeing the institution of slavery as being in their best financial interests, and only supporting the Union once they realized doing so would be good for business. It is a myth that the wealth generated from slavery vanished after the war. Rather, it helped finance the industrialization of the country, and became part of the bedrock of the growth of modern corporations, helping to transform America into a global economic behemoth. In this remarkable book, Montero elegantly and meticulously details rampant Northern investment in slavery. He showcases exactly what was stolen, who stole it, and to whom it is owed, calling for corporate reparations as he details contemporary movements to hold companies accountable for past atrocities.Professional Selling

A forward-looking, practical book and a must-read for anyone in the information economy.&” —Scott Galloway, NYU Stern Professor of Marketing; bestselling author of The Four &“An antidote to today&’s relentless AI hype—why some AI initiatives thrive while others fail and what it takes for companies and people to succeed.&”—Charles Duhigg, author of bestsellers The Power of Habit and Smarter Faster BetterThe greatest tool is the hardest to use. Machine learning is the world&’s most important general-purpose technology—but it&’s notoriously difficult to launch. Outside Big Tech and a handful of other leading companies, machine learning initiatives routinely fail to deploy, never realizing value. What&’s missing? A specialized business practice suitable for wide adoption. In The AI Playbook, bestselling author Eric Siegel presents the gold-standard, six-step practice for ushering machine learning projects from conception to deployment. He illustrates the practice with stories of success and of failure, including revealing case studies from UPS, FICO, and prominent dot-coms. This disciplined approach serves both sides: It empowers business professionals, and it establishes a sorely needed strategic framework for data professionals. Beyond detailing the practice, this book also upskills business professionals—painlessly. It delivers a vital yet friendly dose of semi-technical background knowledge that all stakeholders need to lead or participate in machine learning projects, end to end. This puts business and data professionals on the same page so that they can collaborate deeply, jointly establishing precisely what machine learning is called upon to predict, how well it predicts, and how its predictions are acted upon to improve operations. These essentials make or break each initiative—getting them right paves the way for machine learning&’s value-driven deployment.What kind of AI does this book cover? The buzzword AI can mean many things, but this book is about machine learning, which is a central basis for—and what many mean by—AI.

of all—can substantially benefit the bottom line, but many business leaders mistakenly believe that doing the right thing lowers profits. This belief is the greatest barrier holding businesses back from being more financially and competitively successful—and delivering more good for the world. Not only can it be a winning business strategy to act on values, as Daniel Aronson suggests in The Value of Values, but it is also a savvy choice, increasing a company&’s power, profit, and competitive advantage—in many cases with little additional investment or risk.It starts with seeing what others miss. Using extensive research and real-world calculations, Aronson demonstrates that the &“submerged value&” of initiatives such as taking bold action to combat climate change, helping people find jobs, or creating an open, inclusive work environment is normally 4 to 10 times more than initially believed. Calculating and capturing the true business benefit of acting on values provides a much-needed update to the sustainability and responsibility playbook. Even more important, it shows executives how to harness the value of values to improve profitability, acquire customers, and turbocharge their own careers.Written by a measurement pioneer and one of the world&’s foremost experts on making ethical business count, The Value of Values trains leaders to respond smartly and credibly to today&’s challenges, transforming how business can and should be done.The Complete Beans and Grains Cookbook: A Comprehensive Guide with 450+ Recipes

George Floyd&’s murder, corporate America has doubled down on its public intentions to be more inclusive and equitable. Yet beyond the pledges it is difficult to see which system changes make a real difference. In From Intention to Impact, Malia Lazu draws on her background as a community organizer, her corporate career as a bank president, and now her experience as a leading DEI consultant to explain what has been holding organizations back and what they need to do better. First and foremost, she recognizes that truly moving from intention to impact means targeting and changing the traditions and culture that normalize whiteness.From Intention to Impact shows what organizations, leaders, and people at all levels must do to create more inclusive environments that honor and value diversity. Lazu shares a seven-stage guide through this process as well as a 3L model of listening, learning, and loving that readers can use from the initial excitement of doing &“something&” to the frustration when the inevitable pushback comes, and finally to the determination to do the hard work despite the challenges—on corporate and political fronts. Most compelling, From Intention to Impact shows that, while commitment from the top is paramount, for DEI to be most effective, it needs to be decentralized—among managers, within teams, and across the organization.A crucial read for anyone looking to future-proof their company, From Intention to Impact goes beyond the &“feel good&” PR-centric actions to showcase the real DEI work that must be done to create true and lasting systemic change.The Modern Forager's Cookbook: Recipes from the Farm, Forest, Field, and Stream

it&’s work.Capitalism is broken. Despite its successes, capitalism gives us the largest wealth gap in American history, failing Social Security, a weak currency, and a looming threat of AI destroying our workforce. We need a new system—one built around people rather than capital. A system that values each person&’s unique contribution, ingenuity, and hard work—their labor. A system in which the greatest commodity isn&’t cash; it&’s work. And a system in which Americans at every level of society and government are working together. We need American Laborism, a revolutionary new system that presents a workable, low-tax form of capitalism for those who want it—and a dignified, healthy, happy, and fulfilled life for everyone else. Under American Laborism, if you&’re happy with the current capitalist system, great! Carry on—but you&’ll get to do it with a smaller government, fewer regulations, better-educated employees, and lower taxes. And if capitalism hasn&’t worked out as well for you, you get access to unlimited free education and training, guaranteed housing and food, and a sound asset-backed currency. Everybody wins! American Laborism isn&’t just a replacement for capitalism. It&’s an upgrade. Every American has the right to live a life of dignity, to contribute, and to ensure that their basic needs are respected by their society. American Laborism can improve the lives of every American by bringing the least among us up . . . without bringing anyone else down. It&’s time to heal our nation. It&’s time for American Laborism.Economic Growth and Development in the Tropics (Routledge Advances in Business, Industry and Trade in the Tropics)
Par Sook Rei Tan, Haejin Jang, Jacob Wood. 2024
The living standards and scale of development around the world are vastly unequal. One notable observation is that much of…
the poverty-stricken area is located between the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. By contrast, affluent nations are situated in more temperate zones. Such a phenomenon gives weight to the geography hypothesis that seeks to explain the occurrence of global economic inequality, by placing an emphasis on the importance of natural elements such as location and climate in determining the economic conditions of a nation. This book concentrates exclusively and in depth on the key economic phenomena and factors which shape tropical economies today. It examines contemporary economic problems confronting the tropical countries and provides policy recommendations that align with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals set in the 2030 Agenda. It contains research works and case studies of tropical economies that are related to the area of development and environment economics. The book’s themes range from economic growth, poverty reduction, income inequality, economic globalization, international trade, capital flow, financial development, and institutional development to environmental sustainability within the Tropics. Recognizing the dynamism and diversity of the tropics, the book encompasses empirical and policy analyses that address the key economic issues and challenges in the region so as to provide an important platform from which new policymaking initiatives can flourish. This book will draw readership primarily from the fields of economics and public policy, particularly under the subject areas of development and environment economics, as well as discussions in the sustainability policy space.Full-Time: Work and the Meaning of Life
Par David L. Bahnsen. 2024
We were created to work, and our work provides unique meaning and purpose in our lives. Yet today we are…
living in a crisis of apathy and ignorance regarding work&’s theological and existential nature.There is no shortage of books pleading with people to work less, to find &“balance,&” to think less of career and more of the things that bring them &“happiness.&” Likewise, there is no shortage of books making the case that work matters a great deal—that good things come from fruitful labor. This book belongs in neither of those categories. In Full-Time: Work and the Meaning of Life, David Bahnsen makes the case that our understanding of work and its role in our lives is deeply flawed—we are unmoored from what he calls &“created purpose.&” He argues that the time has come to stop tip-toeing around the issues that matter, that separating one&’s identity from what they do is demonstrably false, and that this era of alienation is for many a direct result of a low view of work. It is in work—effort, service, striving—of every kind that we discover our meaning and purpose; a significant and successful life is one rooted in full-time productivity and cultivation of God&’s created world. This book is not your normal &“defense of work&” book. Whether you are a leader, a follower, a boss, an employee, in a white collar or blue collar job, highly paid or &“just getting by,&” this book is for you. A life of meaning is right under your nose, and with it the joy and peace of a life well-lived. &“David Bahnsen is a theologically grounded, vocationally minded, and Biblically focused man with a vision to make work a gift to the world. In this book, he does just that. Combining thoughtful cultural analysis, conservative economic theory, and practical application for how to live these ideas out in the real world, I am grateful for the keen insights he lays out here. This book is a great combination of ideas and application that I think will serve many well.&” —Jon Tyson, Author, Pastor, Church of the City NYC &“Far too many of us believe that we need to work in order to be able to live, and that&’s it. We need to eat, and so we work. David Bahnsen&’s new book leans heavily in the opposite direction, meaning that God gave us the gift of life so that we might have the grace and privilege of working. Highly recommended.&” —Pastor Douglas Wilson, Christ ChurchBahari: Recipes From an Omani Kitchen and Beyond
