Business Model Innovation as a Dynamic Capability Micro-Foundations and Case Studies【電子書籍】[ Marc Sniukas ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This study adopts a dynamic capabilities perspective to explore the activities and processes through which business model innovations arise in established organisations. New and innovative business models are fundamental to the commercialisation of the latest technologies, performance, and competitive advantage, as well as value creation for customers, the focal company and its ecosystem. Yet, our current understanding of how established companies design and implement new business models is limited by a lack of empirical research. Based on a review of relevant literature, business model innovation is presented and explored as a dynamic capability.</p> <p>The book subsequently uses proven methodologies to gather and analyse data from five case studies in the manufacturing, financial services, media, consulting, and healthcare industries. The framework developed here offers a novel understanding of how business model innovations come about in established organisations, a practice it dubs ‘crafting business models in statu nascendi’.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 17,016円

Case Study Methodology in Business Research is a clear, concise and comprehensive text for case study methodology. Templates are supplied for case study protocol and how to report a case study.

The Greening of Asia The Business Case for Solving Asia's Environmental Emergency【電子書籍】[ Mark Clifford ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>One of Asia's best-respected writers on business and economy, Hong Kong-based author Mark L. Clifford provides a behind-the-scenes look at what companies in China, India, Japan, Korea, the Philippines, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Thailand are doing to build businesses that will lessen the environmental impact of Asia's extraordinary economic growth. Dirty air, foul water, and hellishly overcrowded cities are threatening to choke the region's impressive prosperity. Recognizing a business opportunity in solving social problems, Asian businesses have developed innovative responses to the region's environmental crises.</p> <p>From solar and wind power technologies to green buildings, electric cars, water services, and sustainable tropical forestry, Asian corporations are upending old business models in their home countries and throughout the world. Companies have the money, the technology, and the people to actーyet, as Clifford emphasizes, support from the government (in the form of more effective, market-friendly policies) and the engagement of civil society are crucial for a region-wide shift to greener business practices. Clifford paints detailed profiles of what some of these companies are doing and includes a unique appendix that encapsulates the environmental business practices of more than fifty companies mentioned in the book.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,474円

The safety case report is the snap-shot presentation of the arguments and evidence demonstrating the contemporary safety performance of the system and the programme that is in place. This book, written from personal experience and reference, provides a concentrated source document for assessing and constructing safety cases and safety case reports - from understanding their purposes, through their development and on to their presentation.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 13,838円

The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels【電子書籍】[ Alex Epstein ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Could everything we know about fossil fuels be wrong?</strong></p> <p>For decades, environmentalists have told us that using fossil fuels is a self-destructive addiction that will destroy our planet. Yet at the same time, by every measure of human well-being, from life expectancy to clean water to climate safety, life has been getting better and better.</p> <p>How can this be?</p> <p>The explanation, energy expert Alex Epstein argues in <em>The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels</em>, is that we usually hear only one side of the story. We’re taught to think only of the negatives of fossil fuels, their risks and side effects, but not their positivesーtheir unique ability to provide cheap, reliable energy for a world of seven billion people. And the moral significance of cheap, reliable energy, Epstein argues, is woefully underrated. Energy is our ability to improve every single aspect of life, whether economic or environmental.</p> <p>If we look at the <em>big picture</em> of fossil fuels compared with the alternatives, the overall impact of using fossil fuels is to make the world a far better place. We are morally obligated to use more fossil fuels for the sake of our economy and our environment.</p> <p>Drawing on original insights and cutting-edge research, Epstein argues that most of what we hear about fossil fuels is a myth. For instance . . .</p> <p><strong>Myth</strong>: Fossil fuels are dirty.<br /> <strong>Truth</strong>: The environmental benefits of using fossil fuels far outweigh the risks. Fossil fuels don’t take a naturally clean environment and make it dirty; they take a naturally dirty environment and make it clean. They don’t take a naturally safe climate and make it dangerous; they take a naturally dangerous climate and make it ever safer.</p> <p><strong>Myth</strong>: Fossil fuels are unsustainable, so we should strive to use “renewable” solar and wind.<br /> <strong>Truth</strong>: The sun and wind are intermittent, unreliable fuels that always need backup from a reliable source of energyーusually fossil fuels. There are huge amounts of fossil fuels left, and we have plenty of time to find something cheaper.</p> <p><strong>Myth</strong>: Fossil fuels are hurting the developing world.<br /> <strong>Truth</strong>: Fossil fuels are the key to improving the quality of life for billions of people in the developing world. If we withhold them, access to clean water plummets, critical medical machines like incubators become impossible to operate, and life expectancy drops significantly. Calls to “get off fossil fuels” are calls to degrade the lives of innocent people who merely want the same opportunities we enjoy in the West.</p> <p>Taking everything into account, including the facts about climate change, Epstein argues that <em>“fossil fuels are easy to misunderstand and demonize, but they are absolutely good to use. And they absolutely need to be championed. . . . Mankind’s use of fossil fuels is supremely virtuousーbecause human life is the standard of value and because using fossil fuels transforms our environment to make it wonderful for human life.”</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,064円

Limitarianism The Case Against Extreme Wealth【電子書籍】[ Ingrid Robeyns ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**A New Yorker Best Book of 2024<br /> A History Today Book of the Year</p> <p>"A powerful case for limitarianismーthe idea that we should set a maximum on how much resources one individual can appropriate. A must-read!"<br /> ーThomas Piketty, bestselling author of <em>Capital in the Twenty-First Century</em></p> <p>An original and galvanizing indictment of the world’s uber-rich that boldly argues for a cap on wealth from the philosopher who coined the term "limitarianism.”**</p> <p>How much money is too much? Is it ethical, and democratic, for an individual to amass a limitless amount of wealth, and then spend it however they choose? As democracies weaken, our climate becomes increasingly unpredictable, and inequality worsens, many of us feel that the obvious answer is no ? but what can we do about it?</p> <p>Economist and philosopher Ingrid Robeyns has long written and argued for the principle she calls "limitarianism" ? a “common sense” (Jia Tolentino) case against extreme wealth which posits that a considered cap on one’s individual wealth is an urgent ethnical concern that will ultimately lead to healthier, more democratic societies. In this “provocative consideration of extreme wealth accumulation” (The New Yorker) Robeyns ignites an urgent debate about wealth and when, how and why to limit it, calling into question the legitimacy of capitalism and neoliberalism and inviting us to a radical reimagining of our world.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,213円

Featuring 30 case studies on brands and wine regions around the world - all based on the same principles - it presents a successful, cutting-edge strategy for the marketing of wine.

In its analysis of wine appellation models, the book examines local parameters like geology, history and wine growing techniques; compares facts, figures and actors; analyzes the signals that are being sent to the market and presents a range of key factors for success. Similarly, the wine brands models are analyzed on the basis of their respective brand identity and apparent marketing policy. In the book’s final part, it summarizes recent developments in wine marketing, including the growing importance of wine brands as new territories in the global vineyard, and the role of appellations as the essence of cultural diversity.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,928円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Why we need to stop wasting public funds on education</strong></p> <p>Despite being immensely popularーand immensely lucrativeーeducation is grossly overrated. Now with a new afterword by Bryan Caplan, this explosive book argues that the primary function of education is not to enhance students' skills but to signal the qualities of a good employee. Learn why students hunt for easy As only to forget most of what they learn after the final exam, why decades of growing access to education have not resulted in better jobs for average workers, how employers reward workers for costly schooling they rarely ever use, and why cutting education spending is the best remedy. Romantic notions about education being "good for the soul" must yield to careful research and common senseー<em>The Case against Education</em> points the way.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,859円

The New Case for Gold【電子書籍】[ James Rickards ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em><em><em>**USA Today</em>bestseller and</em>Wall Street Journal</em> business bestseller**</p> <p><em>They say</em>**John Maynard Keynes called gold a "barbarous relic."<br /> ***They say***there isn’t enough gold to support finance and commerce.<br /> <em><strong>They say</strong></em> the gold supply can’t increase fast enough to support world growth.</p> <p><em><strong>They’re wrong.</strong></em></p> <p>In this bold manifesto, bestselling author and economic commentator James Rickards steps forward to defend goldーas both an irreplaceable store of wealth and a standard for currency.</p> <p>Global political instability and market volatility are on the rise. Gold, always a prudent asset to own, has become the single most important wealth preservation tool for banks and individuals alike. Rickards draws on historical case studies, monetary theory, and personal experience as an investor to argue that:</p> <p>? The next financial collapse will be exponentially bigger than the panic of 2008.<br /> ? The time will come, sooner rather than later, when there will be panic buying and only central banks, hedge funds, and other big players will be able to buy any gold at all.<br /> ? It’s not too late to prepare ourselves as a nation: there’s always enough gold for a gold standard if we specify a stable, nondeflationary price.</p> <p>Providing clear instructions on how much gold to buy and where to store it, the short, provocative argument in this book will change the way you look at this “barbarous relic” forever.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,217円

On Fire The Burning Case for a Green New Deal【電子書籍】[ Naomi Klein ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>'Naomi Klein's work has always moved and guided me. She is the great chronicler of our age of climate emergency, an inspirer of generations' - Greta Thunberg</strong></p> <p>For more than twenty years Naomi Klein's books have defined our era, chronicling the exploitation of people and the planet and demanding justice. <em>On Fire</em> gathers for the first time more than a decade of her impassioned writing from the frontline of climate breakdown, and pairs it with new material on the staggeringly high stakes of what we choose to do next.</p> <p>Here is Klein at her most prophetic and philosophical, investigating the climate crisis not only as a profound political challenge but also as a spiritual and imaginative one. Delving into topics ranging from the clash between ecological time and our culture of 'perpetual now,' to rising white supremacy and fortressed borders as a form of 'climate barbarism,' this is a rousing call to action for a planet on the brink.</p> <p>With dispatches from the ghostly Great Barrier Reef, the smoke-choked skies of the Pacific Northwest, post-hurricane Puerto Rico and a Vatican attempting an unprecedented 'ecological conversion,' Klein makes the case that we will rise to the existential challenge of climate change only if we are willing to transform the systems that produced this crisis.</p> <p>This is the fight for our lives. <em>On Fire</em> captures the burning urgency of the climate crisis, as well as the energy of a rising political movement demanding change now.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,064円
