Sinopse

The Circular Economy - Redesigning Business for a Sustainable Future is a comprehensive guide for business leaders, entrepreneurs, and sustainability advocates who are ready to transform their operations for a more sustainable future. In this book, you will discover how the circular economy—an innovative approach that minimizes waste, conserves resources, and fosters regenerative systems—can reshape the way businesses operate in a world of finite resources.

In contrast to the traditional linear model of "take, make, dispose," the circular economy promotes longevity, reuse, and environmental responsibility. By adopting circular principles, businesses can not only reduce their environmental footprint but also unlock new opportunities for innovation, efficiency, and profitability.

In this book, you will learn:

The core principles of the circular economy and how they apply to different industries
Strategies for redesigning products and services to be more sustainable and resource-efficient
How to build circular supply chains that reduce waste and enhance resilience
Case studies of businesses that have successfully implemented circular economy models
Practical steps for shifting from a linear to a circular business model
With actionable insights and real-world examples, The Circular Economy offers a roadmap for businesses looking to thrive in the growing green economy. Whether you're just starting on your sustainability journey or seeking to elevate your current efforts, this book will equip you with the tools and knowledge to build a business that contributes to a sustainable and prosperous future for all.

    In Fraud We Trust - How Leaders...

    Telling lies, and falling for them, is one of the things that makes us human. But when someone deceives another for material gain or profit, inflicting injury in the process, we give this kind of lie a special label: fraud. 
     
     
     
    Most people are familiar with the concept and understand that fraud is prohibited by law. What many fail to appreciate, however, is that the law does not treat all frauds equally. In a perverse sense, the bigger the fraud, the more likely it is protected by the First Amendment and therefore legal. 
     
     
     
    Examples of fraud on the public are everywhere. Politicians on both sides of the aisle lie with such regularity that people have become deeply cynical about whether to believe anything they say. Henricksen shows that large-scale fraud is carried out for many reasons beyond financial profit, including political gain, the prevention of justice, and the falsification of history. 
     
     
     
    In addition to exposing the depths of the problem, Henricksen gives listeners a way forward. By revealing for the first time the root legal cause of the misinformation crisis and presenting novel solutions, In Fraud We Trust speaks to the present moment as it offers answers for the future.

    It was a high-wire act that the Swiss authorities had to perform in four fateful days in March 2023: the biggest merger in the banking world since the financial crisis.
    What really happened in those dramatic 96 hours? Could the catastrophe have been avoided? And how could Credit Suisse of all banks – one of the few global financial institutions to have emerged from the financial crisis stronger than before – end up in such an epochal predicament?
    Peppered with much hitherto unknown information, this book provides the first detailed insider's account of the dramatic downfall of the Swiss-American money house, which always sailed very close to the wind – and in the end went down.

    The definitive pioneering blueprint covering the what, why, and how of the blockchain 
     
      
     
    Blockchains are new technology layers that rewire the Internet and threaten to side-step older legacy constructs and centrally served businesses. At its core, a blockchain injects trust into the network, cutting off some intermediaries from serving that function and disrupting how they operate. Metaphorically, blockchains are the ultimate non-stop computers. Once launched, they never go down, and offer an incredible amount of resiliency. 
     
      
     
    The Business Blockchain charts new territory in advancing our understanding of the blockchain by unpacking its elements like no other before. William Mougayar anticipates a future that consists of thousands, if not millions of blockchains that will enable not only frictionless value exchange, but also a new flow of value, redefining roles, relationships, power, and governance. In this book, Mougayar makes two other strategic assertions. First, the blockchain has polymorphic characteristics; its application will result in a multiplicity of effects. Second, we shouldn't ask what problems the blockchain solves, because that gives us a narrow view on its potential. Rather, we should imagine new opportunities, and tackle even more ambitious problems that cross organizational, regulatory, and mental boundaries.
