Beschreibung

"Ice Fish Advance" explores the profound impact of modern technology on the Yupik people's traditional fishing practices in Alaska, examining how these technological advancements have reshaped their fish trade and economic landscape. The book highlights the Yupik's adoption of advanced fishing gear, such as sophisticated nets and boats, while also navigating the complexities of cultural preservation amidst globalization. 

 
A key insight is how increased market access, while economically beneficial, has led to altered trade relationships and evolving business models within the Yupik community. The book contrasts traditional Yupik fishing methods, deeply rooted in subsistence and cultural identity, with their increasing integration into global market systems. 

 
It emphasizes that while modern fishing gear presents economic opportunities, it also introduces challenges related to sustainability and equitable resource distribution. The narrative unfolds by first introducing the historical context, then analyzing the economic impacts, and finally examining the long-term implications for Yupik culture and resource management. 

 
This approach provides a nuanced perspective on modernization within indigenous communities, making it valuable for understanding indigenous adaptation in the face of technological disruption.

    What if companies made developing their people's capabilities core to their mission?And what if equipping people with the intellectual, emotional, and social capabilities they need to thrive and contribute in the world was a recognized and incentivized form of social contribution? Leadership development experts Ed Offterdinger and Catherine Allen know from years of professional experience that higher profits, happy, engaged, and productive employees, better relationships away from work, and a better world are the result when companies put people development at the center of their strategy. And now more than ever, employers and employees know that embracing continuous learning and development is the single most important way to adapt and succeed in a fast-changing, complex, and technically driven world. But the challenge for leaders is how to change their organization's culture and practices to support more conscious people development in the flow of everyday work. This book is the inspiration to change and a practical guide to show you how to connect all the dots and make real culture change happen at your organization. Your team is already spending more time at work than just about anywhere else—why not harness that time for the betterment of your company, people, community, and world? The scene: What if you woke up one day to find your award-winning company crumbling? Andrew Hyde experiences just this kind of wakeup call, and in the face of an attempted takeover of the company he started with his partner, Patricia Carter, he dares to ask bigger questions: since most workers spend more time at work than they do with friends or family, what would happen if companies used the time to develop the capabilities their people need to thrive in today's modern world? What if employers consciously invested in creating the conditions that develop their employees' full potential and encouraged them to use those capabilities to contribute to their communities, families, and the world? Andrew discovers that consciously developing his employees is more than just good business; it is a way companies can make the most difference in our world. Working closely with a diverse group of team members in his company, Andrew fights the odds (and the forces conspiring to make him fail) to save the company and truly empower his team. In Conscious, Capable, and Ready to Contribute: How Employee Development Can Become the Highest Form of Social Contribution, Ed Offterdinger and Catherine Allen explore what it means to create a true people development culture—designed to grow the potential of everyone every day. Using a business fable brimming with tension and compelling characters, paired with practical advice, they show you how to transform your company's culture and your workforce into a happy and highly productive group ready to make huge contributions to your organization, community, and the world.

    Honorable Business - A Framework...

    Business has a bad name for many people. It is easy to point to unethical and damaging behavior by companies. And it may seem straightforward to blame either individuals or, more generally, ruthless markets and amoral commercial society. 
     
     
     
    In Honorable Business, James R. Otteson argues that business activity can be valuable in itself. Done correctly, honorable business can enable flourishing for individuals and prosperity for society. 
     
     
     
    Otteson connects honorable business with the political, economic, and cultural institutions that contribute to a just and humane society. He builds on Aristotle's conception of human beings as purposive creatures who are capable of constructing a plan for their lives that gives them a chance of achieving the highest good for humanity, focusing on autonomy and accountability, as well as good moral judgment. This good judgment can enable us to answer the why of what we do, not just the how. Otteson offers a pragmatic Code of Business Ethics, linked to a specific conception of professionalism, and defends this Code on the basis of a moral mandate to use one's limited resources of time, talent, and treasure to provide value for oneself only by simultaneously providing value to others. The result is well-articulated parameters within which business can be an acceptable—perhaps even praiseworthy—activity.

    In this Springer Brief, the author introduces how Chinese firms are successfully using their own variants of the "Silicon Valley Approach" to management. The author begins the discussion by deliberating on the extent to which management models need to be re-invented. A fundamentally new approach is then introduced, which already exists and is proving itself in practice at some of Silicon Valley's most dynamic firms. The author finds that the Chinese management models, in comparison, may be even more advanced. If true, this could have profound implications for managers everywhere. 
     
     
     
    The author acknowledges that no management model fails (or succeeds) every time. Skeptics can point to big bureaucratic firms that continue to prosper, as well as to radical innovators that have gone under. This book brings to light the need that has emerged for a model that will give companies their best chances of thriving amid the VUCA whirlwind. A combination of evidence and informed opinion indicates the old management model has run its course.
