Global Expansion Remote Presence for Scale-Ups - Guidelines for Creating a Local Team during the initial Phase of International Expansion

Jan Buis

Summary

Is global expansion of your business becoming inevitable?Have previous global expansion efforts failed?Are there too many unknowns in your global expansion strategy?
This book, Global Expansion Remote Presence for Scale-Ups, is the third in a four-part series. After selecting expansion regions and defining the appropriate Route-to-Market strategies, allocate the necessary resources. In the decision-making process, this step often represents one of the most significant expenses and can be the critical factor in determining whether or not to proceed. To demonstrate its effectiveness, the book includes three unique case studies that provide real-world context and application.
For Scale-Ups, in particular, with limited budgets, taking the wrong approach in your global expansion efforts can be far more costly than anticipated. Missteps not only result in financial losses but can also leave lasting scars and foster negative sentiments toward future expansion efforts.
With the limited time available to Scale-Up management teams and their investors in mind, this book—and the entire series—is based on real-life, practical knowledge. It encourages stakeholders to invest a little more time and resources upfront to ensure that both the company and its leadership are better prepared for the journey of becoming a global player.

The Richest Man In Babylon

George Samuel Clason

The Richest Man in Babylon is a 1926 book by George S. Clason that dispenses financial advice through a collection of parables set 4,000 years ago in ancient Babylon. The book remains in print almost a century after the parables were originally published, and is regarded as a classic of personal financial advice. The parables are told by a fictional Babylonian character called Arkad, a poor scribe who became the "richest man in Babylon". Included in Arkad's advice are the "Seven Cures" (or how to generate money and wealth), and the "Five Laws of Gold" (or how to protect and invest wealth). A core part of Arkad's advice is around "paying yourself first", "living within your means", "investing in what you know", the importance of "long-term saving", and "home ownership". The content is from a series of pamphlets distributed by U.S. banks and insurance companies in 1920–24; the pamphlets were bound together and published as a book in 1926. The book is often referred to as a classic of personal financial advice, and appears in modern recommended reading lists on personal financial advice and wealth management, which has kept the book in print almost 90 years after its first edition with over 2 million copies sold.

Fixing Fairness - 4 Tenets to...

Lily Zheng

The demand for inclusive workplaces is stronger than ever, with most employees seeking a sense of belonging and fairness at work. Yet traditional diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) strategies have faced backlash and stagnation, leaving organizations at a crossroads.Where common DEI initiatives have failed, this book instead offers a results-based, systems-focused, all-inclusive, and universally beneficial framework to help bring about real social change in the workplace. This can be achieved through the FAIR framework: Fairness—Promote equitable treatment by addressing systemic barriers and ensuring transparent, just practices for all. Access—Expand opportunities by removing obstacles and creating pathways for underserved and underrepresented groups. Inclusion—Foster a sense of belonging where diverse voices are valued, heard, and integrated into decision-making. Representation—Reflect the diversity of society at all levels, ensuring visibility and participation across demographics. 
The DEI industrial complex failed to make real change through unchecked growth and performative practices, and far-right antagonists only offer regressive "solutions." With clarity, urgency, and practicality, Fixing Fairness offers a third option and charts a path forward for those committed to creating better outcomes for all.
