Faced with global economic, social and environmental challenges requiring us to go beyond individual actions, the development of collective dynamics is the ideal response. From this perspective, territories, which have long been neglected, are now asserting themselves as breeding grounds for innovative and relevant forms of organized action in response to shared experiences. Bringing together more than twenty researchers in strategic management, human resources management and marketing, Collective Dynamics and Territories offers, through nine territorial issues (innovating and regenerating territories, building environmental action, attracting and retaining talent, etc.), insights into the conditions and modalities for developing collective dynamics within territories. The success of local collective dynamics depends on support for the actors involved, from situation analysis to problem definition, including idea generation, selection, implementation and evaluation. This book offers a comprehensive, systemic and operational vision for analyzing and acting on collective territorial dynamics.

Banerjee, Asis Kumar,
Inequality, Economic Growth and Business Decision-Making. (Routledge Focus on Management and Society) 152 pp. 2024:8 (Routledge, UK) <727-318>
ISBN 978-1-03-270706-8 hard ¥14,495.- (税込) GB£ 48.99 *
It is now widely recognised that rising inequality of income and wealth on the one hand and a slowdown in the rate of economic growth on the other are two of the most important challenges faced today by the global economy as well as by most of the developing economies. This book starts by explaining how these two issues are interrelated. There is no dearth of books on the role that the economic policies of the government can play in meeting these twin challenges. The role of business managers in the private sector of the economy, however, is a relatively neglected area. This book seeks to close this gap in the literature. The central message of the book is that, contrary to popular belief, it is in the interests of private business itself that business managers take into account the effects that their decisions have on the economy as a whole. It is shown that a failure to do so would hurt their own economic prospects in both the short run and the long. Emphasis is given on the importance of an appropriate orientation of managerial decisions and on the role of investors (i.e. the suppliers of capital) in inducing managers to take socially optimal decisions. The book is addressed as much to business managers and students in management courses as to the general reader. Therefore, no prior knowledge of advanced economic theory is presumed. All arguments are built from first principles.

ISBN 978-1-83797-972-1 hard ¥23,908.- (税込) US$ 105.00
In today's diverse and multicultural work environments, conflicts have become inevitable. Managers in contemporary workplaces face significant challenges of dealing with conflict. They spend a considerable portion of their time, ranging from nine to fifteen weeks annually, on resolving disputes. The dynamic landscape of the modern workplace has given rise to novel and unusual challenges in maintaining harmony and handling disagreements effectively. This makes the skill of conflict management and negotiation a critical talent for success. Against the milieu of the Digital Era, authors Bhawana Bhardwaj and Dipanker Sharma delve into the multifaceted aspects of conflicts, encompassing their various manifestations and approaches to resolution, while exploring the implications of advanced technology and the integration of mixed workforces on the complexity of conflict resolution. In the era of digitalization, there has been a significant drift in the management practices where negotiations are now managed online and through several AI tools. The discourse on using contemporary tools like NSS (Negotiation Support System) will benefit and enable the readers to fine-tune with this changing paradigm. The authors also explore the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the conflict resolution domain. The Book delve into the proactive approaches to conflict resolution by reframing conflict as a normal and potentially beneficial phenomenon. Written with a diverse readership in mind, this monograph caters to students, educators, researchers, managers, and policymakers alike.

The Kardashians are not only a massive global pop culture phenomenon, they are also effective business leaders and entrepreneurs having established many brands and companies.

Brigitte Biehl uses examples from the popular TV series "The Kardashians" and "Keeping up with the Kardashians" to explore leadership concepts that focus on women in business, and the obstacles they face in a male dominated world. Among the many subjects that will appeal to a variety of readers, from college students to professional practitioners, Biehl addresses questions of gender performativity, bodies, motherhood, race, class, as well as issues on female misogyny and masculine leadership stereotypes. The book provides guidelines how to use TV series and film for self-directed learning to develop a better awareness and understanding of what goes on between people and one's own leader identity. Exploring Effective Leadership Practices through Popular Culture aims to bring examples, theory and methodology of leadership to life by analyzing academic concepts through popular culture examples that will appeal to a broad range of readers.

Bofu-Tawamba, Ndana / Bright, Ruby / Clohesy, S. et al.,
The Uprising of Women in Philanthropy. 180 pp. 2024:8 (Routledge, UK) <727-321>
ISBN 978-1-03-236146-8 hard ¥50,303.- (税込) GB£ 170.00
ISBN 978-1-03-236147-5 paper ¥9,465.- (税込) GB£ 31.99
The Uprising of Women in Philanthropy tells the inspiring, never-before-told, story of the Global Women's Funding Movement - considered the women's movement's greatest secret - and how it enabled women from all walks of life to harness the power of money to free themselves from oppression.Brimming with feminist epiphanies, this social justice playbook is an urgent call for women's collective leadership to guide humanity through the gravest of challenges, overcoming patriarchy's multi-millennium reign through the uprising of women leaders and philanthropists. Founded during the second wave women's movement of the early 1970s, small groups of women across the world, independent of each other, had the same epiphany: it will take a movement of women to raise the money needed to fund women's freedom. Since then, the Global Women's Funding Movement has grown into a global network of radically generous, risk-taking philanthropists who collectively wield financial might to win seismic gender equality victories. The authors document the "Women Effect" that results from gender equality and women's collective leadership, including improved public health and reproductive justice, expanded public education, stronger democracies, resilient economies, climate recovery and enduring peace. The Women's Funding Movement is guided by its Feminist Funding Principles and, through them, it has innovated the most effective philanthropic practices, including trust-based philanthropy.The Uprising of Women in Philanthropy is for those interested in focusing the power of philanthropy on leveraging systemic social justice victories and gender equality gains. The long-practiced "Feminist Funding Principles" imparted by the authors is a recipe for the feminist alchemy needed to transform society for the betterment of all.

Bremer, Michael,
Learn to See the Invisible: How to Unlock Your Potential as a Leader. 168 pp. 2024:10 (Productivity Pr., US) <727-322>
ISBN 978-1-03-280071-4 hard ¥38,467.- (税込) GB£ 130.00
ISBN 978-1-03-280070-7 paper ¥8,577.- (税込) GB£ 28.99
Most improvement consultants say improvement efforts must be led by the CEO, and that is certainly ideal. But the actual reality is most CEOs do not actively drive/guide improvement. They want it to happen, but they focus most of their energy on other issues. According to surveys from Gallup and others, the number one reason people say, "I am not engaged" is due to the behaviors of their direct boss! Those leaders (in the middle of an organization) have a tremendous amount of leverage, first- and second-line leaders directly touch 80% of the people in their organization. They have a tremendous amount of influence and more power than they might realize. This book focuses on that demographic.This book describes four key foundations and 25 different actions leaders can practice to become more effective in training their eyes to see things tomorrow that are currently invisible. It helps leaders and managers become better observers of their current reality by practicing getting better at getting better. The goal is to get better in the way we lead, the way our team performs, and the results we accomplish. If done in the right way, visually posting your improvement targets is the key to driving more personal growth, as well as, more cross-functional collaboration and cooperation in your work activities The most unique aspect of this book is that it suggests leaders use visual tools.Visual Leadership is the fourth foundational element the author encourages people to practice. The primary purpose of visual performance metrics isn't to make sure things are working well in your department. It's to create a thinking environment that makes it easier for multiple departments, teams, and groups to work together. It is relatively easy to come up with performance metrics for your team, but what about metrics that help 'us' to work more effectively together? Good visual reporting practices create 'information democracy, they eliminate filters that obscure knowledge between layers of management and between departments. They help to create an environment that is much more robust and open, making it easier to be in touch with the 'actual reality.' And perhaps the most exciting of all visual tools can help an individual learn to lead more effectively. The power of using visuals in this way is underutilized in most organizations.Whatever new behaviors a leader is trying to accomplish, visual reporting can facilitate progress and ensure accountability in developing those new habits.

Donner, Jonathan / Guglielmo, Francis / Palsule, Sudhanshu,
Guiding the Tide: The Call for Agency in 21st Century Business Leaders. 168 pp. 2024:9 (Productivity Pr., US) <727-327>
ISBN 978-1-03-279424-2 hard ¥23,076.- (税込) GB£ 77.99
ISBN 978-1-03-279422-8 paper ¥8,281.- (税込) GB£ 27.99
In a world increasingly driven by artificial intelligence, leadership needs to move beyond the "agile" approach, which dominated organizational leadership practices at the end of the 20th century. What is required now for successful leaders is a skillful juxtaposition of proactivity and humility, which we call guiding the tide.Successful leaders of today must demonstrate personal agency to guide the tide of events around them rather than be swept along with the crowd. The "tide," like a river within an ocean akin to a gulf stream, is a unique, ever-changing stream of business systems, technology, consumers, and competitors.This book uses storytelling, examples, and clear, everyday language to blend leading-edge psychological research and leadership practices with the authors' own work in coaching, assessing, and developing leaders for three decades around the world. The book takes the reader on a journey through three major learnings: First, the authors describe the nature of the tide and the demands on leaders to move beyond a reactionary, agile approach towards the forward-leaning, active stance of personal agency. Second, they describe three critical practices to successfully lead with agency and guide the tide:* Honest Engagement -- the practice of dealing with others from a place of openness, honesty, and a willingness to be vulnerable.* Addressing Reality -- the practice of seeing the world as it is rather than as we wish it to be and the ability to separate fact from fiction and data from desire.* Adaptive Impact -- the practice of driving the organization, team, and one's self forward in a way that creates sustainable competitive advantage.Third, they offer leaders a practical path to achieving the personal agency to successfully guide their organization through the tide that shapes their world.

How Entrepreneurs are Driving Sustainable Development. (Emerald Points) 104 pp. 2024:8 (Emerald, UK) <727-330>
ISBN 978-1-80382-210-5 hard ¥13,662.- (税込) US$ 60.00 *
Sustainable development aspires to reduce current societal challenges by creating wealth for everyone within the limit of the planet productive capacity, in this way, ensuring that future generations can meet their own needs. This is largely because sustainable development refers to the "development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs". Activists, corporations, non-governmental organizations, entrepreneurs and politicians must all be involved in achieving sustainable development. Academics and policymakers have also recognized the potential of entrepreneurs for tackling current societal challenges with their businesses because entrepreneurs are able to fill the voids left by the other individuals and organizations. However, who are these entrepreneurs? How can they provide solutions and tackle current societal challenges with their business? Exploring the transformative powers of sustainable entrepreneurs, How Entrepreneurs are Driving Sustainable Development also demonstrates how family, women and immigrant entrepreneurs can tackle current societal challenges, break inequalities and bring about change.

Through the unique combination of evolutionary biology and management theory applied to business cases, and keeping in mind that organisations are fundamentally human systems, Goh and Mundra propose organisational evolvability as a new frame to guide enterprise transformation and change.Some of the topics covered in the book include: Understanding the differences between Complicated and Complex; Moving from Planned Change to Emergent Change; Applying principles of evolution to enterprise evolvability, and how to operationalise it using a Sense-Adapt-respond loop; Identifying and addressing Sensemaking gaps; including different approaches to scaling and repaying organisational debt; Measuring outcomes under conditions of complexity. This book proposes that transformation is not a one-and-done event but a continuous process of adapting to a dynamic and unpredictable environment. The goal of transformation should be to enhance organisational evolvability - the capacity of a system for adaptive evolution. This book encourages leaders and practitioners to view organisations as open and complex adaptive systems and provides frameworks that help them to manage transformations with adaptive grace.A perfect volume for managers, executives and leaders at companies of all sizes. It will also be of interest to instructors in executive education, as well as scholars in organizational studies and business management.

Ending Slavery in the Corporate Supply Chain: Storytelling, Leadership, and the Coalition of Immokalee Workers. (Routledge Studies in Management, Organizations and Society) 192 pp. 2024:9 (Routledge, UK) <727-334>
ISBN 978-1-03-245357-6 hard ¥39,946.- (税込) GB£ 135.00
The Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW) is a Florida-based farmworkers' cooperative that has received international acclaim for sponsoring anti-slavery investigations. In 2011, they worked with commercial tomato growers to found the Fair Food Program, a private sector agreement that operates according to the principles of worker-driven social responsibility (WSR). Researchers have lauded WSR as an alternative to traditional corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs, which have failed to curb human exploitation in global markets. The Fair Food Program has been credited with ending slavery and other human rights abuses in Florida's tomato industry and is now expanding to other sectors of the food economy in the United States and several other nations. Researchers have called for WSR programs to be included in a "smart mix" of public and private initiatives aimed at abolishing slavery and other types of exploitation in global supply chains. The book introduces a theory of ensemble storytelling to explain how the CIW has been able to animate workers, fight slavery, influence multinational corporations, and expand the Fair Food Program. The phrase ensemble storytelling refers to a set of collective, dynamic storytelling practices. They are described as foundational to the operation of any WSR program.

Management, Conflict Resolution and Strategy: Coping with Stress at Work. (Routledge Studies in Management, Organizations and Society) 268 pp. 2024:9 (Routledge, UK) <727-337>
ISBN 978-1-03-258772-1 hard ¥39,946.- (税込) GB£ 135.00 *
Managers are key people in building the success of any organization. Business results depend on their efficiency in the implementation of the power entrusted to them. This efficiency, on the other hand, largely depends on psychosocial competences and personality predispositions. One of the main factors affecting destructively on managers is stress, destroying the level of their motivation to work, the level of commitment and ultimately resulting in premature professional burnout and a significant reduction in the level of efficiency. Ultimately, instead of efficient and motivated specialists, companies are struggling with employees suffering from depression. Exploration of the issue of identifying the sources of stress draws attention to conflict as one of the main research categories that are closely related to the category of stress. It is worth emphasizing that this relationship is two-way: conflict determines the level of stress, stress may determine the scale of conflict situations. This recommended monograph provides the latest knowledge on what contemporary managers use conflict resolution styles and what strategies they choose to deal with in stressful situations. A particular advantage of the study is the presentation of the links between both research categories, which are so paramount nowadays.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

Collaborating for Museum Innovation: Technological, Cultural, and Organisational Innovation in Spanish Museums. (Routledge Studies in Innovation, Organizations and Technology) 180 pp. 2024:9 (Routledge, UK) <727-341>
ISBN 978-1-03-200239-2 hard ¥39,946.- (税込) GB£ 135.00
This book is a fresh reflection on the study of museum innovation, with special attention paid to the enabling role of collaboration within the process. It sets out to capture the innovation dynamics of museums and explore to what extent and how collaborative arrangement can contribute to different types of innovative activities in the museum sector. The book presents a holistic review of museum innovation from multiple perspectives of, among others, economics, sociology, museology and organizational study, while adopting an interdisciplinary approach to explore and analyse the innovation process and collaboration mechanism from the viewpoint of economics and sociology. The research presented is based on three interdependent aspects: firstly, a holistic definition and taxonomy of innovation in museum organisations; secondly, qualitative and quantitative analysis of the enabling role of collaboration in technological, cultural and organizational innovation in museums; and thirdly, multiple case studies for the identification and evaluation of effective collaboration models in different types of innovation. This is a problem-oriented study, which avoids focusing on those large and super museums that have been well-documented in prior studies; instead, it concentrates on small-and medium-sized museums, which account for more than 85% of museums in the world and have become the main resources of cultural tourism and the creative economy at a regional level. Primarily written for postgraduates, researchers and academics interested in innovation study, innovation in cultural and creative sectors, and museum study, the findings may also have important implications on innovation management and policy for regional museums and public authorities.

Storying Leadership for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion: Reconceiving Research Dynamics. (Routledge Research in Educational Leadership) 272 pp. 2024:9 (Routledge, UK) <727-349>
ISBN 978-1-03-256034-2 hard ¥39,946.- (税込) GB£ 135.00
This book positions the concept of Storying as integral to leadership in qualitative research, drawing on a wide range of studies and perspectives by diverse, minoritized leaders. Presenting stories of leadership, resistance, diversity, and cultural wealth, these chapters highlight 'problems of practice' from Latinx, Black, and BIPOC administrators, special education teachers, EOP community college students, and parents, including those undocumented. Crucially, the book showcases where 'leadership in place' is exemplified through storying, arguing that 'storying' is more empowering in qualitative research since it acknowledges the identities and reflexivity of both the researcher and the researched. This significant aspect of research methodology not only addresses cultural historicity but also fosters authentic representations of participant identities and lived experiences. The chapters directly and innovatively address these power dynamics and show how they are re-negotiated within spaces that are culturally relevant, socially situated, and historically constructed. They demonstrate how, through storying, the limits of textual interpretations can be traversed. This unique volume contributes to the growing literature on the largest minority group in the United States and is highly relevant to those with interests in educational leadership, race and ethnicity, research methods, and qualitative research.

ISBN 978-1-03-268838-1 paper ¥15,679.- (税込) GB£ 52.99
This book discusses the existing management approaches for dealing with changes -- namely readiness, maturity, and resilience. Although these concepts have been discussed for several years now, their importance grows when companies must deal with extended changes in economies. The changes are of a different nature: social, technological, and political, and they strongly impact every aspect of economies and companies' activity. Is it possible to be ready for the changes? Should companies be resilient to disruption? These are the questions the managers are trying to answer, yet they need some support from academics. The book explores the synergy between the state-of-the-art knowledge and experience of companies to create a Contemporary Management Model. The scope of the book covers the methodology with an introduction and discussion of the key ideas and concludes with a presentation of the Contemporary Management Model followed by the practical validation and verification of the model based on case studies. The book is simply about developing readiness and resilience of resources and processes - especially from a tactical perspective.

Emotional Drivers of Innovation: Exploring the Moral Economy of Prototypes. (Science Studies) 200 S. 2024:8 (Transcript, GW) <727-356>
ISBN 978-3-8376-7147-6 paper ¥9,652.- (税込) EUR 39.00
Innovation is ubiquitous and has become a universal term that is indispensable to describe interventions, projects, or products. The contributors to this volume argue that emotions influence innovations as they are inherent in initial ideas, expectations and habitual evaluation criteria that impact the development process. Instead of assuming that the innovation process is subject to rational and linear creativity, the study adopts the notion of `moral economies' by Lorraine Daston as a space for negotiation. Such an approach enables decision-makers to question the evaluation criteria and patterns for technological developments before implementing them in society.
