Business to Diplomacy: The...

Dr Andrew Campbell

Diplomacy is critically important in leadership as it influences the leader’s ability to effectively navigate the complexities of not only international relations but also tactical, organizational, and strategic business operations. Dr Andrew Campbell is the Director of the International Peace and Leadership Institute and Director of the Global Leadership Education Institute. As a critically acclaimed author, international speaker, and leadership researcher, he blends global leadership, organizational leadership, international conflict management and terrorism, and emotional intelligence to show that business leadership is missing diplomacy as a key ingredient and that diplomats require leadership knowledge, skills, and abilities to lead in resolving international tensions. Dr. Campbell postulates that both business leaders and diplomatic leaders possess the same diverse range of competencies, including effective communication, negotiation, strategic thinking, adaptability, cultural intelligence, emotional intelligence, conflict resolution, empathy, networking, and ethical conduct. Dr Campbell provides an innovative approach to learning and leadership development that are instrumental in both business and diplomacy. The world community needs business leaders with diplomacy skills as well as diplomats who lead with high character and act ethically when advancing the interests of business as well as the nation's foreign policy objectives within an interconnected world. The foundation of real leadership is built on character and the life one leads not on the role one plays.

The Great Escape - Health Wealth...

Angus Deaton

The world is a better place than it used to be. People are healthier, wealthier, and live longer. Yet the escapes from destitution by so many has left gaping inequalities between people and nations. In The Great Escape, Angus Deaton—one of the foremost experts on economic development and on poverty—tells the remarkable story of how, beginning 250 years ago, some parts of the world experienced sustained progress, opening up gaps and setting the stage for today’s disproportionately unequal world. Deaton takes an in-depth look at the historical and ongoing patterns behind the health and wealth of nations, and addresses what needs to be done to help those left behind.
Deaton describes vast innovations and wrenching setbacks: the successes of antibiotics, pest control, vaccinations, and clean water on the one hand, and disastrous famines and the HIV/AIDS epidemic on the other. He examines the United States, a nation that has prospered but is today experiencing slower growth and increasing inequality. He also considers how economic growth in India and China has improved the lives of more than a billion people. Deaton argues that international aid has been ineffective and even harmful. He suggests alternative efforts—including reforming incentives to drug companies and lifting trade restrictions—that will allow the developing world to bring about its own Great Escape.
Demonstrating how changes in health and living standards have transformed our lives, The Great Escape is a powerful guide to addressing the well-being of all nations.
