The Next Economy MBA -...

Kevin Bayuk, LIFT Economy, Erin...

This radical and rigorous rethinking of the traditional MBA program combines solid business principles with a commitment to environmental and social justice.

Many current and aspiring entrepreneurs are looking for a solid business education that also deeply aligns with their progressive values. Based on a course field-tested with over 500 students, this book fills that gap. It covers traditional topics such as business strategy and structure, finance, marketing, recruiting, and branding from a socially just and environmentally regenerative perspective. And it also touches on topics such as strategies to reverse climate change, nonviolent communication, self-managing organizations, locally self-reliant economies, racial justice, and more.

Traditional MBA programs are based on outdated principles that were developed during the Industrial Revolution-and they can be hugely expensive. Sustainable MBA programs, while laudable, are too incremental to make a sufficient impact. The Next Economy MBA is for entrepreneurs seeking to make business an active force for good. It draws on the authors' experience of working with over 300 social enterprises, from small organizations like Winona's Hemp and Heritage Farm to household names like Ben & Jerry's and Patagonia.

Our current economy, what the authors call the "Business as Usual Economy," has created a massive wealth gap, a climate crisis, racial division, and needless housing, food, and healthcare shortages. This book shows how businesses can pave the way to a Next Economy that meets the basic needs of all people and restores and protects the planetary ecosystem.

Heart For Women - A 40-Day...

Meredith Swift

Bringing Hope To Hearts That Are Raw And Fragile
Are you in an abusive relationship/marriage?
Or have you been able to make the break?
Do you feel stripped of your dignity and worth and your right to be safe?
Are you grappling with guilt and shame?
Are you seeking comfort and validation?
Are you in need of strength and support?
If so, then this book is for you!
Over the 20 year period that I was trapped in an abusive marriage, I left and reconciled with my husband many times before God gave me the courage to break free once and for all.
I wanted to find a book that would soothe my troubled spirit and show me clearly the Scriptures that speak of God's heart for hurting and abused women. I could not find such a book and so, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I wrote this 40-day devotional. This devotional aims to comfort and uplift the hurting heart of any woman who, like me, was overwhelmed by the pain of an abusive marriage and drowning in sorrow and regret, guilt and grief, shame, doubt and fear.
This beautiful book is Spirit-filled with bite sized morsels to savour and digest. It is a book which ministers to women who have found the courage to break free of the cycle of abuse and are now desperately needing validation for their decision. It is also a book which can help women still in abuse to know that there is a way forward through Jesus, the One who invites us to bathe in His true and tender love; and who brings us freedom and joy, overcoming and healing - and the peace that surpasses all understanding.
