Balancing organization and engagement is the cornerstone of a workplace where supervisors and their teams can genuinely thrive. Effective organization goes beyond checking boxes and meeting quotas-it's about creating an environment where clear direction and supportive leadership enable everyone to do their best work. Supervisors play a pivotal role in this dynamic, navigating their own tasks while guiding their teams and meeting the expectations of clients and higher management. The challenge is maintaining this balance, managing projects, and leading with limited time and resources. Success demands more than good intentions; it requires strong organizational skills to foster harmony, streamline efforts, and reduce stress. However, even the most meticulously organized supervisor can't optimize their teams without veritable engagement. Lasting success comes from integrating structure with human connection. A great supervisor allocates resources effectively and builds an atmosphere where employees feel valued, motivated, and genuinely connected to their work. This book is your comprehensive guide to mastering this delicate balance. Packed with practical insights and proven strategies, this book will help elevate your leadership skills and team dynamics, creating a culture where productivity and commitment are seamlessly intertwined.

Digital transformation brings new opportunities, but also disruption, to the way businesses work. The application of technologies such as blockchain, AI, Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data have the potential to revolutionize how businesses operate and incorporate sustainable practices within manufacturing processes and supply chains, creating value and redeveloping business models. Digital technologies can also enable more efficient collaboration between various partners across the globe and increase transparency in the supply chain. But while the adoption of new technology can have benefits for businesses, customers and the environment, individual businesses' uptake of new technologies is highly variable, leading to disruption in the supply and value chains.Digital Transformation and Business Sustainability: From theory to practice provides insights to the principle of digital transformation and the key technologies which enable businesses to put the principle into practice. The early chapters set out what digital transformation means for business and how an organization can be ready for it. The book then asks a series of critical questions about digital transformation, such as whether it enables inclusive markets and how compatible it is with digital inclusion and the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. The issue of business sustainability is then addressed in a series of chapters looking at digital transformation and the circular economy.Featuring diverse cases and examples drawn from across the global economy, and assessing both the theory and practice of digital transformation, this book is an ideal resource for postgraduate students on management courses, professionals on executive education courses, researchers and lecturers.Chapter 3 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at http://www.taylorfrancis.com under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial (CC-BY-NC) 4.0 license.

With Africa predicted to emerge as a leading market in the coming years, the debate on sustainability, especially on the mitigation of business impact on the continent's environment and society cannot be underestimated. Prior to the worsening impact of the climate change, the continent has historically been struggling to consolidate sustainability efforts in driving social and environmental protection caused by both foreign (majorly) and local business activities in the region. To capture current social and environmental injustice bedeviling the African continent, Secretary-General Prof. Petteri Taalas of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) opined, that "Africa is responsible for less than 10 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. But it is the continent which is the least able to cope with the negative impacts of climate change. Heatwaves, heavy rains, floods, tropical cyclones, and prolonged droughts are having devastating impacts on communities and economies, with increasing numbers of people at risk." Sustainability Reporting Frameworks have empowered sustainability leaders, most especially Chief Sustainability Officers (CSO's), in organizations to developed practical strategies for leading sustainability related issues while driving systemic change for collective thinking towards mitigating the impact of climate change on society and the environment. While there is undoubtedly a plethora of standards, codes and toolkits to help frame the sustainability drive, with leading CSO's around the globe sharing their lived experiences, the narrative for best practices, and what the content of sustainability initiatives and reporting should be have been skewed to the Western or advanced economies' narrative. This reporting has drowned out other continent specific narratives which offers a diverse pool of perspectives and locally rich content on some sustainability actions and achievements, especially from CSO's. The role of business sustainability leaders and CSO's in Africa in positioning the continent as the 'market of tomorrow' with sound and robust sustainability practices, need to be spotlighted. Owing to the gap, this book brings the urgency to light through case studies and stories from leading African businesses, while capturing their sustainability strategies and achievements. This book moves beyond the experience and context of business in advanced economies and responds to the need for an alternative narrative of sustainability leadership in Africa. The focus of this book is on the role of sustainability leadership over the last decade and discusses the contributions and challenges of navigating this multi-disciplinary function in different sectors. The authors share their insight into this under-researched and under-reported perspective highly relevant to business and sustainability, and ESG reporting in a growing region like Africa.

The corporate landscape is rife with instances of leaders who have left a trail of sinister outcomes.In the last three decades, the research in leadership and organizational sciences has expanded in theoretical and typological breadth to include the dark side. These works have aimed at uncovering the complex interplay of personalities, power dynamics, and organizational cultures that can lead to destructive and unethical behaviors in the workplace. While there are volumes of literature on leadership, there is a dearth of research that integrates dark leadership and cross-cultural norms, perspectives, variances and interventions. The Dark Sides of Leadership: A Cross-Cultural Compendium is a collaborative and transdisciplinary venture that draws on the knowledge and experiences of organizational science practitioners and scholars across the globe to explore the contentious and evolving subject of dark leadership in the workplace. The primary consideration of this book is to explore dark-side leadership conceptualizations and manifestations across national contexts and provide insights into cultural peculiarities in traits, processes, and outcomes, as well as interventionist paradigms. Social psychologists agree that the dimensions of individual worldviews shrink or broaden based on socialization and Hofstede's research demonstrates the fundamental role of national and organizational culture in shaping leadership behavior.There is currently no book that comprehensively documents cross-cultural cases, perspectives, and research on dark leadership. The authors intend to bridge this gap with this transdisciplinary book.

Aligning information security to the goals and strategies of the business is paramount for ensuring risks are addressed, without an abundance of negative impacts to the company. But how does a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) accomplish effective alignment? A security executive must understand the detailed needs of business leaders and stakeholders from across all corners of the company. We cannot rely on a standard cadence of general security discussions across all of the lines of business, as well as functional areas, and expect our alignment to be maximally effective. Instead, we should promote our security programs in such a way that makes it personal to whomever we are speaking with at any given time.By leveraging already established and tested marketing concepts, slightly altered for information security, the CISO can tailor their message to fit the needs of each stakeholder. This allows for in-depth business alignment, as well as a holistic view of the company's underpinnings for the CISO. Within these pages, the reader will learn how segmentation, the Four P's, and customer relationship management techniques, can help to transform their security program. Additionally, the book introduces a concept called Security Relationship Management (SRM) that optimizes the creation and nurturing of the hundreds of professional relationships (within and outside the company) that a CISO must balance each week. Through structured tracking of interactions and analyzing SRM data, the CISO ensures that relationships are managed effectively, which increases alignment between the business and cybersecurity initiatives.
