Negotiating Genuinely
Being Yourself in Business
SHIRLI KOPELMAN
Negotiating ofen leads people to wall of
vulnerable parts of themselves and act ra-
tionally to win. But what if you could just
be you in business? Taking a positive ap-
proach, this brief distills years of research,
teaching, and coaching into an integrated
framework for negotiating genuinely.
Competing and cooperating while being
strategic and real is fundamentally chal-
lenging. Yet, this duality is both possible
and powerful. Shirli Kopelman teaches
readers how to reconcile the disparate
hats that they wear in everyday lifewith
family, friends, and colleaguesbringing
one integral hat to the negotiation
table. Kopelman shares techniques that
illuminate this approach; exercises along
the way help readers to negotiate more
naturally, positively, and successfully.
Shirli Kopelman develops a playful,
action-oriented framework to com-
municate deep and practical insights
about the nature of cooperation
and competition in negotiations.

Hard Times
Leadership in America
BARBARA KELLERMAN
Leadership has never played
a more prominent role in our
national discourse, and yet our
opinions of American leaders are
at all-time lows. Private sector
leaders are widely seen as greedy
to the point of being corrupt,
public sector leaders are viewed
as incompetent to the point of
being inept, and levels of trust in
the government have plummeted.
As the title of this book conveys,
we are experiencing Hard Times.
Barbara Kellerman argues that we have focused on leaders and
even on followers while overlooking an essential element of
leadership: context. Tis book is, then, a corrective. By providing
a multi-faceted view of America today, it enables leaders to see the
terrain that they must navigate in order to create positive change.
Rather than a handy-dandy manual on what to do and how to do
it, the book is structured as a checklist that introduces readers to
the basic components of context. Twenty-four brief sections cover
foundational aspects of the American landscape; need-to-know
evolutions and revolutions that have shifed our societal institu-
tions and norms; populations relevant to leadership practice; and,
fnally, futures and inversions to the way things used to be.
Tis crash course reveals how signifcantly context impacts leadership.
Clearer still is the fact that todays context makes leadership more
difcult than it has ever been before. It is context that explains why
leadership is so fraught with frustration, and it is context that makes
evident why leadership will be better exercised if it is better understood.
Highlighting persistent patterns that emerge from the checklist, Keller-
man challenges leaders to do better with their context in full view. Tis
fascinating read will change the way that all citizens think about leader-
ship, business, and the future of our country.
Hard Times is a brilliantly insightful and immensely important book. Its
a tour de forcea passionate, provocative, and persuasive discourse on
the extraordinarily complex context that confronts leaders in every wak-
ing moment. Tere is no one better able to tell this story than Kellerman.
She is an exceptional writer with an extraordinary breadth and depth of
knowledge who never hesitates to tell it like it is. Every leader and student
of leadership must read this book. Now!

LEADERSHIP 3
Leading with Sense
Te Intuitive Power of
Savoir-Relier
VALRIE GAUTHIER
FOREWORD BY WARREN BENNIS
Todays business environment
demands a new approach to leadership,
one that efectively connects individu-
als and organizations in the midst of
change. In Leading with Sense, Valrie
Gauthier draws on her experience as
a poetic translator and her expertise
in cross-cultural leadership to outline
the tenets of savoir-relier: a framework
for building sensible, trustworthy,
and lasting relationships that enables
leaders to value diference, work across
boundaries, and navigate complex
systems. Savoir-relier teaches leaders
to tap into their senses in the midst
of strategizing, allowing them to act
intuitively and rationally at once.
Gauthier trains readers to be poets
and translators in the business context.
With savoir-relier, we can write
our own stories, deciphering the
challenges that we face with acumen,
humility, and respect. Using real-
world examples, Gauthier guides us
with methods and tools for cultivating
a savoir-relier mindset.

Flourishing
Enterprise
Te New Spirit of Business
CHRIS LASZLO AND
JUDY SORUM BROWN,
WITH JOHN R. EHRENFELD,
MARY GORHAM, ILMA BARROS-POSE,
LINDA ROBSON, ROGER SAILLANT,
DAVE SHERMAN, AND PAUL WERDER
Te notion of responsible
business has infltrated our
markets, and going green is
now a part of our mind set. But,
sustainability as we know it is
not enough. Flourishingthe
aspiration that humans and
other life will thrive on the earth
forevershould be a key goal
for every business today. Tis is a bold concept, like sustainability was
a decade ago. Just as sustainability has become a matter of course, so
too will fourishing will become a cornerstone of business tomorrow.
How are companies to attain this big-picture goal? Drawing together
decades of research along with in-depth interviews, Flourishing En-
terprise argues that strategic, organizational, and operational eforts
to be sustainable reach the potential of fourishing when they incor-
porate one additional ingredient: refective practices. Ofering more
than a dozen such practices, this book leads readers down a path to
greater business success, personal well-being, and a healthier planet.
Readers will fnd that adding refective practices to existing business
eforts does not require more work; it simply changes the way we do
our work and, more importantly, the results we achieve. Cultivating
emotional and spiritual health is the next frontier; this future-
oriented guide develops these core competencies while stretching the
ongoing conversation about ethical, sustainable business.
Te genius of this book lies in its marriage of inspiration with investigation,
poetry with practice, and resilience with research. Its long view sets it apart
from other books on the topic, and takes the conversation about business,
sustainability, and spirituality from the margins into the mainstream.
Margaret Beneel, author of Soul at Work and The Soul of a Leader
Flourishing Enterprise lays out a compelling case and pathway for
business to help catalyze a world where all people and life can fourish.
I applaud its inspiration and vision for how each of us can create the
world to which we aspire for ourselves and our children.

LEADERSHIP SUSTAINABILITY AND CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY 4
Maximizing the Triple
Bottom Line Through
Spiritual Leadership
LOUIS W. FRY AND
MELISSA SADLER NISIEWICZ
Maximizing the Triple Bottom Line
through Spiritual Leadership draws
on the emerging felds of workplace
spirituality and spiritual leadership to
teach leaders and their constituencies
how to develop business models that
address issues of ethical leadership,
employee well-being, sustainability,
and social responsibility without sac-
rifcing proftability, growth, and other
metrics of performance excellence.
Te authors ofer real-world examples
of for-proft and non-proft organiza-
tions with spiritual leaders who
have implemented organizational
spiritual leadership. Based on over
ten years of research, supported by
the International Institute of Spiritual
Leadership, these cases demonstrate
the value of the spiritual leadership
models presented in the text. Praca-
demic in its orientation, this book
delivers a general process and tools for
implementation.

Flourishing
A Frank Conversation About
Sustainability
JOHN R. EHRENFELD AND
ANDREW J. HOFFMAN
Flourishing invites readers into
a conversation between authors
John R. Ehrenfeld and Andrew
J. Hofman as they discuss how to
create a sustainable world. Trough
essays and dialogue, Ehrenfeld and
Hofman take us beyond the typical
stories that we tell ourselves about
sustainability and how to repair
the damages of human progress.
While sustainability has become
fashionable, both business and
government are following the wrong
pathmerely applying temporary
solutions that are less unsustainable,
but that will fail to provide for the
needs of future generations. To shif
the pendulum, the authors envision
a new story, driven by caring, as
opposed to needing, and rooted in
the beauty of a transformative change
that we can and must make. Tis book
provides a roadmap to a fourishing
future, satisfying and truly sustainable
consumption, and a new understand-
ing of our place in the world.

Corporate Responsibility
Coalitions
Te Past, Present, and Future of
Alliances for Sustainable Capitalism
DAVID GRAYSON AND JANE NELSON
It is estimated that there are more
than 110 national and international
business-led corporate responsibility
coalitions. Given the growing reach and
signifcance of these alliances, there is
now a critical need for an informed and
balanced analysis of their achievements,
their progress, and their potential.
In Corporate Responsibility Coali-
tions, the frst book to chronicle the
subject, David Grayson and Jane Nelson
explore the past, present, and future
of these coalitions. Tey consider the
emergence of new models of collective
corporate action over the past four
decades; the increasing number of
these coalitions, their diversity and
complexity; and how they network
with each other and a broader set of
institutions that promote sustainable
capitalism. Drawing on their global
study, the authors light the way for the
future development of these infuential
alliances. In addition, they provide
in-depth profles of the most strategic,
efective, and long-standing coalitions.

Can Green Sustain Growth?
From the Religion to the Reality of
Sustainable Prosperity
JOHN ZYSMAN AND MARK HUBERTY
Green growth has proven to be
politically popular, but economically
elusive. Can Green Sustain Growth?
asks how we can move from theoreti-
cal support to implementation, and
argues that this leap will require
radical experimentation. But systemic
change is costly, and a sweeping shif
cannot be accomplished without
political support, not to mention
large-scale cooperation between
business and government.
Insightful and timely, this book brings
together eight original, international
case studies to consider what we can
learn from the implementation of
green growth strategies to date. Te
analysis reveals that coalitions for
green experimentation emerge
and survive when they link climate
solutions to specifc problems with
near-term benefts that appeal to both
environmental and industrial interests.
Based on these fndings, the volume
delivers concrete policy recommenda-
tions for next steps in the necessary
shif toward sustainable prosperity.

The Fountain of Knowledge
Te Role of Universities in
Economic Development
SHIRI M. BREZNITZ
Today, universities around the world
fnd themselves going beyond the
traditional roles of research and teach-
ing to drive the development of local
economies through collaborations
with industry. At a time when regions
that house universities are seeking best
practices among their peers, Breznitz
argues against the notion that one
universitys successful technology
transfer model can be easily trans-
ported to another. Rather, the impact
that a university can have on its local
economy must be understood in terms
of its idiosyncratic internal mecha-
nisms, as well as the state and regional
markets within which it operates.
To illustrate her argument, Breznitz
undertakes a comparative analysis of
two universities, Yale and Cambridge,
and the diferent outcomes of their
attempts at commercialization in bio-
technology. By contrasting these two
universities she makes a powerful case
for the idea that technology transfer is
dependent on highly variable historical
and environmental factors.

6 INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY IN THE WORLD ECONOMY
Invention and Reinvention
Te Evolution of San Diegos
Innovation Economy
MARY LINDENSTEIN WALSHOK AND
ABRAHAM J. SHRAGGE
Formerly prosperous cities across the
United States are striving to adapt in
todays knowledge economy. Inven-
tion and Reinvention chronicles San
Diegos transformation from a small
West Coast settlement to a booming
military metropolis and then to a
successful innovation hub.
Stressing the role that cultural values
and social dynamics played in its
transition, the authors discern fve
distinct, recurring factors upon which
San Diego capitalized at key junctures
in its economic growth. San Diego
though not always a star cityhas
been able to repurpose its assets and
realign its economic development
strategies to sustain prosperity.
Te San Diego region has long deserved
a really comprehensive history of
how its economy emerged. Tis book
describes that journey and contains a
number of insights that will be extreme-
ly useful to other regions that are trying
to reinvent themselves.

7 INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY IN THE WORLD ECONOMY
The Evolution of a New
Industry
A Genealogical Approach
ISRAEL DRORI, SHMUEL ELLIS, AND
ZUR SHAPIRA
Te Evolution of a New Industry traces
the emergence and growth of the
Israeli high-tech sector to provide
a new understanding of industry
evolution.
Te authors reveal how the high-tech
sector in Israel built an entrepreneurial
culture with a capacity to disseminate
intergenerational knowledge of how to
found ventures, as well as an intricate
network of support for new frms.
Following the evolution of this indus-
try from embryonic to mature stages,
Drori, Ellis, and Shapira develop a
genealogical approach that relies on
looking at the sector in the way that
one might consider a family tree. Te
principles of this analysis enable them
to draw attention to the dynamics
of industry evolution, while relating
the efects of the parent companies
initial conditions to their respective
corporate genealogies and imprinting
potential. Te text suggests that genea-
logical evolution is a key mechanism
for understanding the rate and extent
of founding new organizations.

Technology Change and the
Rise of New Industries
JEFFREY L. FUNK
Technology Change and the Rise of New
Industries explores why new industries
emerge at specifc moments in time
and in certain countries. Part I shows
that technologies which experience
exponential improvements in cost
and performance have a greater
chance of becoming new industries.
When low-end discontinuities incur
exponential improvements, they ofen
displace the dominant technologies
and become disruptive innovations.
Part II explores this phenomenon and
instances in which discontinuities
spawn new industries because they
impact higher-level systems. Part
III examines the challenges of new
industries for frms and governments.
Part IV uses ideas from the previous
chapters to analyze the present and
future of selected technologies.
Based on analyses of many industries,
including those with an electronic and
clean-energy focus, this book chal-
lenges the conventional wisdom that
performance dramatically rises follow-
ing the emergence of a new technology,
that costs fall due to increases in
cumulative production, and that low-
end innovations automatically become
disruptive ones.

The Co-Creation Paradigm
VENKAT RAMASWAMY AND
KERIMCAN OZCAN
A fundamental shif is underway
that will change our conception
of value. In an era of increasing
interconnectedness, individuals,
as opposed to institutions, stand
at the center of value creation.
Organizations can no longer
unilaterally devise products
and services. Tey must engage
stakeholderscustomers, em-
ployees, suppliers, partners, and
citizens at largeas co-creators.
Co-creation guru Venkat
Ramaswamy and Kerimcan
Ozcan call for enterprises to be mindful of lived experiences, to build
engagement platforms and management systems that are designed for
creative collaboration, and to develop win morewin more strate-
gies that enhance our wealth, welfare, and, well-being. Richly illustrat-
ed with examples of co-creation in action, Te Co-Creation Paradigm
provides a blueprint for the co-creative enterprise, economy, and so-
ciety. Tis book challenges some of our most deeply held ideas about
business and value, as it outlines the future of business as usual.
Firms are no longer the center of value creation, which now pivots
around the human experience, interactions, and platforms of engage-
ment. Te Co-Creation Paradigm is a multi-layered view of strategy
that opens up new insights and points toward profts that are not attain-
able using conventional tools.
Venki Rajah, Vice President of Infrastructure Insight, Oracle Corporation
Creating and maintaining a competitive advantage is a race toward an
ever moving target. Co-creation is the latest lever to get ahead by in-
volving business partners, directly drawing upon their skills and eforts.
Doing this requires a new business paradigm, which is well captured in
Ramaswamy and Ozcans practical and inspiring book.
Hans Lsse, Senior Director,
Strategic Risk Management, The LEGO Group
Te Co-creation Paradigm represents the next wave of strategic market-
ing and management. We need to train our students and re-train our
executives to think in terms of co-creation and platform building. Invit-
ing all stakeholders to co-create our business will lead to competitive in-
sights and advantages that are unimaginable in traditional companies.

STRATEGY 8
More than Money
Five Forms of Capital to Create
Wealth and Eliminate Poverty
PAUL C. GODFREY
Is poverty inevitable? No, says Paul C.
Godfrey. More than Money shows how
organizations can win the fght against
poverty and create prosperity for
people at the base of the pyramid in
the developing and developed world.
Tis book presents a novel framework
that shows how fve types of inter-
related capitalinstitutional, human,
social, organizational, and physical
enable development and sustainable
growth. In addition to a widely
applicable model, Godfrey provides
principles to guide application. Core
chapters articulate each specifc form
of capital and ofer examples of how
it contributes to the triple bottom line.
Not just a theoretical examination
of poverty, this book delivers timely
advice to organizations that produce
goods and services, implement poli-
cies, and create meaningful change
on the ground. Tis book will guide
social innovators and entrepreneurs in
business, government, and civil society
as they create a vision, assemble a
team of strong partners, and efectively
measure social innovation.

ORGANIZATION STUDIES 9
Adaptive Action
Leveraging Uncertainty in
Your Organization
GLENDA H. EOYANG AND
ROYCE J. HOLLADAY
Rooted in the study of human systems
dynamics, Adaptive Action introduces
a simple, common sense process that
will guide you and your organization
through uncertain times.
Tis elegant method prompts readers
to engage with three deceptively
simple questions: What? So what?
Now what? Te frst leads to careful
observation; the second invites
thoughtful consideration of options
and implications; the third ignites
efective action. Together, these ques-
tions and the tools that support them
produce a dynamic and creative dance
with uncertainty. Te road-tested
steps of adaptive action can be used to
devise solutions and improve perfor-
mance across multiple challenges, and
they have proven to be scalable from
individuals to work groups, from
organizations to communities.
In addition to laying out the adaptive
action framework and clear protocols
to support it, the authors introduce
exemplary cases from professionals
in leadership, consulting, Alzheimers
treatment, evaluation, education
reform, political advocacy, and
cultural engagement.

The Social Roots of Risk
Producing Disasters,
Promoting Resilience
KATHLEEN TIERNEY
Te frst decade of the twenty-frst
century saw a remarkable number
of large-scale disasters. Earthquakes
in Sumatra and Haiti underscored
the serious consequences that cata-
strophic events can have in developing
countries, while 9/11, Hurricane
Katrina, and the disasters that struck
Thoku, Japan in 2011 showed that
First World nations remain vulner-
able. With so much knowledge of
the risks that we continue to face,
why are we still unable to anticipate,
prevent, and cope with them?
Kathleen Tierney argues against the
widespread notion that cataclysmic oc-
currences are driven by forces beyond
our control. Instead, she contends
that risks and disasters of all types are
produced by the social order itself.
Be they natural, technological, or
economic in nature, risks and their
consequences are rooted in common
social and institutional sources. A
provocative rethinking of the way that
we approach and remedy disasters,
this book leaves readers with a better
understanding of how our own actions
make us vulnerable to the next big cri-
sisand what we can do to prevent it.

behavior of social networks. With an
innovative and strategically-minded

and clog our networks, this book lays

Anonymous Agencies,
Backstreet Businesses,
and Covert Collectives
Rethinking Organizations in
the 21st Century
CRAIG R. SCOTT
Many of todays organizations devote
extensive resources to branding, catch-
ing the public eye, and capitalizing on
the age of transparency. But, at the same
time, a growing number of companies
and other collectives work hard to
conceal their identities and activities.
Among these are secret societies, politi-
cal contributors, terrorist cells, covert
military units, organized crime groups,
and online hacktivist collectives.
Tis book ofers a framework for think-
ing about how organizations and their
members communicate identity. Con-
sidering the degree to which organiza-
tions strategically conceal themselves,
it describes various regions in which
these collectives resideranging from
transparent to shaded, from shadowed
to dark. By taking a closer look at
groups as varied as EarthFirst!, the
Church of Scientology, Alcoholics
Anonymous, the KKK, Skull and Bones,
Anonymous, U.S. special mission
units, mens bathhouses, and various
terrorist organizations, this book helps
to draw attention to shaded, shadowed,
and dark collectives as important and
consequential organizations in the
contemporary landscape.

Common Knowledge?
An Ethnography of Wikipedia
DARIUSZ JEMIELNIAK
With its emphasis on peer-produced
content and collaboration, Wikipedia
exemplifes a departure from tradi-
tional management and organizational
models. Tis iconic project has been
variously characterized as a hive mind
and an information revolution, attract-
ing millions of new users even as it
has been denigrated as anarchic and
plagued by misinformation.
Dariusz Jemielniak draws on his
academic expertise and years of active
participation within the Wikipedia
community to take readers inside the
site, illuminating how it functions
and deconstructing its distinctive
organization. Against a backdrop of
misconceptions about its governance,
authenticity, and accessibility, Jemiel-
niak delivers the frst ethnography
of Wikipedia, revealing that it is not
entirely at the mercy of the public.
Instead, it balances open access and
power with a unique bureaucracy
that takes a page from traditional
organizations. Along the way, Jemiel-
niak incorporates fascinating cases
that highlight the tug-of-war among
participants as they forge ahead in this
pioneering environment.

The Economics of
Business Valuation
Towards a Value
Functional Approach
PATRICK L. ANDERSON
For decades, the market, asset, and
income approaches have taken
center stage in the valuation of the
frm. Tis book brings to light an
expanded valuation toolkit consisting
of ten well-defned principles from
the felds of economics, fnance,
accounting, and control theory. It
ultimately argues that a value
functional approach avoids most of
the shortcomings of its competitors,
and more correctly matches valuation
theory with stakeholder motivations.
With historical side notes from an
international set of sources and
real-world examples, this book
is a future-facing resource for
scholars in economics and
fnance, as well as academically
minded valuation practitioners.
Tis book clearly reviews the existing
literature and shows the shortcomings
of conceptual and practical methods
that are used throughout the business
and consulting world. It introduces
fundamental changes that build up
to an improved methodological
approach and that signifcantly ad-
vance the science of valuation.
