Summary

South Africa stands at the edge of a precipice. Almost thirty years after its first democratic election, poor policy and rampant corruption have left the country standing on the brink of becoming a failed state.
In this thought-provoking book, Bronwyn Williams and Ludwig Raal interview a diverse group of public intellectuals, business leaders and political mavericks to discuss tangible ways South Africa can rescue itself from itself. Through a series of illuminating conversations, a group of independent thinkers explore the root causes of South Africa's problems and offer insightful and radical ways to solve them.
From addressing land reform and economic development to rooting out corruption and overhauling political institutions, the conversations in this book come together as a roadmap towards a better South Africa that leaves no one behind. While the challenges facing the young democracy are immense, these experts provide hope and inspiration towards productive actions that we can take together to build a brighter future.
For anyone interested in understanding the complex issues facing South Africa today and how they can be addressed, Rescuing Our Republic is essential reading. It is a powerful reminder that the fate of a nation is not predetermined; that individuals, citizens and corporations still have powerful agency and that when that agency is directed towards the right ideas and actions, South Africa can still realise its full potential.

Written by experienced industrial/organizational psychologists Dr. Patricia Grabarek and Dr. Katina Sawyer and packed with real-life stories to add context, this book explores topics including addressing the mismatch in the definition of wellness between employees and employers; focusing on the tone leaders set at work, as opposed to time they spend at work; and crafting work to support life, instead of the other way around, to support and respond to employees' unique needs. 
 
 
  
At a time when employee morale has never been lower, Leading for Wellness is an essential listen for current and aspiring business leaders and managers seeking exclusive data-based insights on how to solve one of the most pressing problems in business today.

    The Wave Principle

    The Elliott Wave Principle, formulated by Ralph Nelson Elliott in the 1930s, stands as a prominent tool in technical analysis, aiming to forecast market trends by discerning recurring wave patterns in financial markets. Rooted in the idea that market price movements aren't random but rather follow identifiable patterns shaped by investor psychology, this theory has gained significant traction.Elliott's framework categorizes waves into two main types: impulse waves and corrective waves. Impulse waves, constituting five distinct moves, align with the primary trend—whether upward or downward. On the other hand, corrective waves, comprising three moves, run counter to the prevailing trend, acting as periods of consolidation or retracement.Practically, analysts employ chart analysis to identify these wave patterns, labeling each wave numerically or alphabetically. To refine their wave counts and predictions, they use Fibonacci ratios, trendlines, and other technical indicators. The key premise is that understanding the psychological factors influencing market participants allows for anticipating future price movements.Traders and investors commonly apply the Elliott Wave analysis to various financial instruments, including stocks, commodities, and forex. Advocates argue that the predictive power of the Elliott Wave Theory can enhance decision-making in trading and investment strategies. However, critics emphasize the subjectivity in wave interpretation and the complexity of market dynamics, making consistent application challenging.In practice, adherents use the Elliott Wave Principle to identify entry and exit points based on the anticipated continuation or reversal of trends. Despite its popularity, it's crucial to approach Elliott Wave analysis with caution, acknowledging that market behavior is influenced by numerous factors, and no single approach guarantees success.
