Description

Author Information

Could you ever follow a robot leader? What about obeying a robot president?

Theo Priestley is a leading futurist and technology evangelist. He is recognised globally as a ‘Visionary Futurist’ at the World Future Society and is a frequent keynote speaker on future trends, having spoken across the UK, Europe, China, South Africa, the US and Australia. He regularly writes, and provides commentary for various publications including Forbes, WIRED, the BBC, Huff Post, Venturebeat and Giga OM. In 2017 he delivered a TED Talk on the impact of AI.

Advancing algorithms, big data feeding artificial intelligence, precipitous machine learning and science fiction being replaced by science fact - all of these are radically affecting how we do business. The genie is out of the bottle and there’s no way to stuff it back in again. As the march of artificial intelligence continues, what could this mean for business leaders? Are they likely to be replaced by a machine in the next 30 years? Would you Follow a Robot Leader? explores the ways in which leadership will be defined and delivered in the business of the future. It explores the morality involved in appointing and following a machine and interrogates what businesses and the Boardroom need to do to adapt. Is this a threat to the C-Suite, or an opportunity beyond anything we’ve conceived before? Would you Follow a Robot Leader? introduces the concepts of Weak, General and Super AI, and looks at the way that companies can be structured around decisions made by machines. It explores the opportunities open to organizations if they embrace intelligent automation and robotic decision makers, but address the ethics we need to think about before it’s too late. If a robot drives, hires and fires, is this the end of work as we know it, or the beginning of something more?

Table of Contents 1 Preface – Would you follow a robot leader? 2 A Brief History Of The Machine 2.1 Industrial Age of the Machine 2.2 Turing Tests The Limit 2.3 Deepmind Takes on Humanity 3 The Robot CEO 3.1 AI: The Decision Maker 3.2 The Organisational Psychology Of An AI Leader 3.3 An Ethical Leader? 4 The AI Arms Race 4.1 AI Across the Globe 4.2 AI Lessons From the East 5 Artificial Intelligence is Child’s Play 5.1 A Future Generation of Leaders Speak Up 6 So, Would You Follow A Robot Leader? 6.1 Can You Trust A Robot Leader?

Priestley has also spent time as a mentor in various start up accelerators, including HTC’s VIVE X and Alchemist Accelerator, one of Silicon Valley’s top 5 incubators.

Author Information

Description

Daniel Newman is Principal Analyst of Futurum Research and the CEO of Broadsuite Media Group. Living his life at the intersection of people and technology, Newman works with large technology brands exploring digital transformation and how it influences our world. A five-times best-selling author, he is a Forbes, Entrepreneur and Huffington Post contributor.

Will the workplace of the future be overrun by machines and robots? Are the new frontiers of artificial intelligence (AI) on the cusp of dethroning us in efficiency, intelligence and innovative potential? Automation and AI will augment our human world and potential. The winners of the future of work are those that harness the power of machines to their advantage. Human/ Machine is the only guide you need to understand the fourth industrial revolution. It sets out a road map to the challenges ahead, but also unlocks the wondrous opportunities that it offers.

Olivier Blanchard draws from his extensive experience managing product innovation, technology adoption, digital integration and change management for industry leaders in a variety of sectors to help decision makers, and their organizations, understand the many risks and opportunities of technology-driven disruption and leverage innovation.

Human/Machine explores how we will work symbiotically with machines, detailing how institutions, companies, individuals and education providers will evolve to integrate seamlessly with new technologies. With exclusive case studies, this book offers a glimpse into the future and details how top companies are already thriving on this very special relationship. From gamification in job training to project management teams integrated with bots and predictive technologies that fix problems in the supply chain before they happen, the authors deliver a powerful manifesto for the adoption and celebration of automation and AI. In a much more fluid, skills-based economy, we will all need to prove our worth and futureproof our skills base. This book offers a blueprint to avoid being left behind and unearth the opportunities unique to human-machine partnership ecosystems.

Description

Chris Duffey spearheads Adobe’s Creative Cloud strategic development partnerships across the Creative enterprise space. His keynotes have received over 50 million impressions and been reported around the world by Access Hollywood, Extra, Ok Magazine, Hello, People, Daily Mail and Euro News.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the new electricity of our times. It is revolutionizing industries the world over, and changing how we fundamentally view and understand work. Superhuman Innovation argues that AI will supercharge the workforce and the world of work, can be harnessed to deliver powerful change to how companies innovate and gain competitive advantage. It is a practical guide to how AI and Machine Learning are impacting not only how businesses, brands, and agencies innovate, but also what they innovate: products, services and content.

He has been profiled by The Wall Street Journal, The Guardian, Adweek, Adage, Cheddar, The Mirror, The Drum, Campaign, NYPost, Business Insider and by Google, McKinsey and Wharton in their digital marketing book. Duffey also serves on Rutgers University Data Advisory Board and The Board of Directors for ANA NY. Before Adobe, the author was an AwardWinning Executive Creative Director, noted speaker, author and Artificial Intelligence & Mobile Technologist. He has been featured by Business Insider, and Yahoo as one of “The industry’s leaders on the top issues, challenges and opportunities in the fast-changing world of mobile marketing.”

In a world of product and pricing parity, the delivery of superior service experience has become the new marketing, and the new real competitive edge. With AI companies can harness the power of data, personalization and on-demand availability, at the touch of an intelligent button. Superhuman Innovation discusses how AI will serve the superstar innovators of tomorrow, by enabling them to see deeper insights and set sail for higher goals. It unearths a powerful five-pronged model which describes how AI enables innovation through the offerings of Speed (facilitating work processes), Understanding (revealing and mastering deep insights), Performance (customization of delivery to customers), Experimentation (the iterative process of reinvention and feedback) and Results (tangible, measurable and optimizable results). The book is supported by varied and innovative case studies from a variety of industries.

Description

Author Information

Brands are built on trust, but in a post-truth world they’re faced with a serious challenge: so much of modern life is defined by mistrust. A shattering of the vital trust connection between brands and consumers, together with the evaporation of authenticity as a core brand pillar, is causing enormous problems for businesses on a global scale. If a brand isn’t seen as trustworthy, then when choice is available it will be rejected in favour of one that is.

Sean Pillot de Chenecey is a marketing expert, who for over twenty years has combined brand consultancy with ethnographic activity and trend research around the world. His clients have included Unilever, Swatch, Heineken, Diageo, General Motors, Beiersdorf, AXA, Vodafone, Comptoir des Cotonniers, Muller, GlaxoSmithKline, Visa, Granarolo and Starwood; and he’s collaborated with numerous advertising, branding, design, media and PR agencies. He is a university lecturer and has written for Admap, Brand Strategy, Contagious, Dazed and Marketing. A public speaker, he’s given speeches for over a decade in Asia, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and North America.

The Post-Truth Business provides a way forward for any organization wishing to rebuild brand authenticity in a distrustful world. It explains the interconnected problems facing businesses, with important topics including: - The impact of fake news, disinformation and the weaponizing of lies - The safeguarding of privacy, alongside privacy as a tradable asset - Why and how brands must create communication with meaning - The dangers of inauthentic cultural marketing activities - Examples of conscious capitalism and brand activism - Lessons in authenticity from artisans and innovators - National branding and reputation capital - Leveraging the power of ‘brand trust’ The Post-Truth Business shows how to strengthen consumer engagement by closing the ‘brand credibility gap’. It’s packed with examples of inspiring people, brands and international campaigns from the fashion, beauty, outdoor, motor, drinks, finance, media, technology, entertainment and health sectors. Each of them demonstrates a dynamic and positive way forward.

Description

Tom Goodwin is the Executive Vice President and Head of Innovation at Zenith Media USA. He has been voted a top 10 voice in Marketing by LinkedIn, one of 30 people to follow on Twitter by Business Insider, and a “must follow” by Fast Company. An industry provocateur and commentator on the future of marketing and business, he is a columnist for TechCrunch and Forbes and frequent contributor to The Guardian, GQ, Ad Age, Wired, Ad Week, Inc, MediaPost & Digiday.

Digital Darwinism takes a closer look at disruptive thinking to inspire those who want to be the best at digital transformation. Change across business is accelerating, but the lifespan of companies is decreasing as leaders face a growing abundance of decisions to make, data to process and technology that threatens even the most established business models. These forces could destroy your company or, with the right strategy in place, help you transform it into a market leader. Digital Darwinism lends a guiding hand through the turbulence, offering practical strategies while sounding a call to action that lights a fire underneath complacency to inspire creative change.

Rights Sold 1st Edition: Chinese (Simplified), German, Italian, Turkish, Thai

Digital Darwinism shines a light on the future by exploring technology, society and lessons from the past so you can understand how to adapt, what to embrace and what to ignore. Tom Goodwin proves that assumptions the business world has previously made about “digital” are wrong: incremental change isn’t good enough, adding technology at the edges won’t work and digital isn’t a thing - it’s everything. If you want your organization to succeed in the postdigital age, you need to be enlightened by Digital Darwinism.

Description

Author Information

Saying sorry is in crisis. On one hand there’s anxious PR aficionados and social media teams dishing out apologies with alarming frequency. On the other there’s people and organizations who have done truly terrible things issuing much-delayed statements of mild regret.

Sir Cary Cooper, CBE, is the 50th Anniversary Professor of Organizational Psychology and Health at the ALLIANCE Manchester Business School. He holds the office of president of the CIPD, the British Academy of Management, RELATE and Institute of Welfare. He has been voted the Most Influential HR Thinker by Human Resource magazine and is a Fellow of the American Academy of Management. He was made a CBE in 2001 for his contribution to occupational health and awarded Knighthood in 2014 for his contribution to the social sciences.

We have become addicted to apologies but immune from saying sorry. In January 2018 there were 35 public apologies from high-profile organisations and individuals. That’s more than one per day. Between them, in 2017, the likes of Facebook, Mercedes Benz and United Airlines issued over 2,000 words of apologies for their transgressions. Alarmingly, the word ‘sorry’ didn’t appear once. This perfectly timed book examines the psychology, motivations and even the economic rationale of giving an apology in the age of outrage culture and on-demand contrition. It reveals the tricks and techniques we all use to evade, reframe and divert from what we did and demonstrates how professionals do it best. Providing lessons for businesses and organizations, you’ll find out how to give meaningful apologies and know when to say sorry, or not say it at all. The Apology Impulse is the perfect playbook for anyone - from social media executive through to online influencers and CEOs - who apologize way too much and say sorry far too infrequently.

Sean O’Meara is the founder and MD of Essential Content, a specialist content and PR agency. He’s worked with leading organisations including The Co-Op Bank and the BBC.

Description

Author Information

Traditional management practices, rooted in economics and psychology, have led to a focus on numbers and productivity rather than the people who make those numbers happen. This has resulted in trust in leaders and organizations being at an all-time low. What Philosophy Can Teach You About Being a Better Leader expertly counters this thinking and argues that those leaders who will win in the uncertain and complex world of work, are the ones focusing on their workforce and valuing its members as people, rather than just tools within the process.

Jules Goddard is a Fellow of the Centre for Management Development at London Business School, where he has taught competitive strategy and creative marketing for 30 years.

What Philosophy Can Teach You About Being a Better Leader considers the main questions plaguing today’s leaders through the eyes of four of the greatest philosophers. With the help of Aristotle, Socrates, Kant and Nietzsche, as well as a whole host of other brilliant minds, they smash widely held workplace falsehoods and unveil a new model for empowerment, fulfillment and harmony at work. What Philosophy Can Teach You About Being a Better Leader is a fascinating account of how we can reconnect company, people and shareholder interests. It answers perennial leadership concerns like questions of people engagement, key performance indicators or even generational differences at work through the lens of philosophy, with its focus squarely on how to live and help others live fulfilling lives at work.

She has the BCS International Diploma in Business Analysis and is a BCS certified Chartered IT Professional.

The business analyst role can cover a wide range of responsibilities, including the elicitation and documenting of business requirements, upfront strategic work, design and implementation phases. Typical difficulties faced by analysts include stakeholders who disagree or don’t know their requirements, handling estimates and project deadlines that conflict, and what to do if all the requirements are top priority. The Business Analysis Handbook offers practical solutions to these and other common problems which arise when uncovering requirements or conducting business analysis. Getting requirements right is difficult; this book offers guidance on delivering the right project results, avoiding extra cost and work, and increasing the benefits to the organization. The Business Analysis Handbook provides an understanding of the analyst role and the soft skills required, and outlines industry standard tools and techniques with guidelines on their use to suit the most appropriate situations. Covering methodologies such as Lean Six Sigma and Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN), this essential guide also includes standard templates to save time and ensure nothing important is missed.

Author Information

Blockchain is the technology behind bitcoin and other crypto-currencies. According to Santander, it could save financial institutions $15-20bn a year from 2022 onward. Most experts see an unprecedented potential, but many banks, payment processors and credit card companies fret that bitcoin entrepreneurs could cast a pall over their core business. Whatever the position of blockchain, many voices are shouting from different angles, creating a cacophony of confusion including tech-evangelists, anarcho-libertarians, and industry experts. But while everybody in IT and banking seems to have an opinion on the blockchain, there is little systematic research, no strategic analysis. Blockchain Babel is the ultimate guide to the most disruptive technology to have entered the finance industry in recent years.

Igor Pejic is the Head of Marketing at BNP Paribas PF AT, part of Europe’s largest banking group. A former business journalist, the author regularly comments on payments, transactions and the blockchain in the media. He was voted by McKinsey and The Financial Times as one of three finalists in the Bracken Bower Prize with his work on blockchain in 2016, which has resulted in this book.

Blockchain Babel looks at blockchain alongside innovation diffusion, competitive dynamics and management strategy. Shortlisted as one of the three best business book proposals by McKinsey and The Financial Times for the Bracken Bower Prize in 2016, this is a must-read for business leaders and aspiring leaders wanting to grasp blockchain and put it into context and understand the practical implications it may have.

Description

Miri Rodriguez is an award-winning storyteller and creative journalist at Microsoft, based in the US. Rodriguez is a renowned keynote speaker and international thought leader on digitaltelling, personal branding and youth entrepreneurship. Along with multiple awards, her work has been acknowledged as best practice by the annual Microsoft Think Tank Summit and she regularly contributes to global podcasts and publications. Previous clients include Adobe, Walmart and McKesson.

Despite understanding essential storytelling techniques, brands continue to explain how their product or service can help the customer, rather than showcasing how the customer’s life has changed as a result of them. Brand Storytelling returns to the heart of brand loyalty, consumer behaviour and engagement as a business strategy: using storytelling to trigger the emotions that humans are driven by. This book provides a step by step guide to assess, dismantle and rebuild a brand story, shifting the brand from a ‘hero’ to ‘sidekick’ mentality, and positioning the customer as a key influencer to motivate the audience. Written by the award-winning storyteller Miri Rodriguez at Microsoft, Brand Storytelling is a clear, actionable guide which goes beyond content strategy, simplifying where to begin, how to benchmark success and ensuring a consistent brand voice throughout every department. Inspiring with interviews, advice and case studies from leading brands like Expedia, Coca Cola, McDonalds, Adobe and Google, it clarifies why machine-learning, AI and automation only tell one side of the story. Aligning an emotive connection with the customer’s personal values, experiences and aspirations will enable brand leaders, employees and influencers to celebrate and strengthen brand engagement for long-term growth, rather than trying to win it.

Author Information

In today’s hyper-connected world, any brand with a website or digital presence is ‘global’ by its very definition; yet in practice it takes an enormous amount of strategic planning and adaptability to successfully manage an international brand. Global Brand Management explores the increasingly universal scope of brand management. In an era when many brand managers will find themselves working for large multinationals operating across varied territories, categories and consumer groups, developing an understanding of both the opportunities and risks of multinational brands is truly essential.

Laurence Minskyis Associate Professor in Communication & Media Innovation at Columbia College Chicago, and author of many books on advertising and marketing. He is also an award-winning marketing strategist, creative director and copywriter, focused on creating innovative and effective branding and cross-discipline marketing solutions for many leading brands.

Meticulously researched, Global Brand Management shows readers how to manage an existing global brand, while simultaneously equipping them with the skills to build one from scratch. The text uses fascinating case studies including Oreo, Harley Davidson and Xiaomi to demonstrate the challenges of maintaining a stable brand identity when operating across territories with different languages, cultural values and logistics. With helpful pedagogy throughout and built-in features to enhance classroom learning, Global Brand Management is the perfect springboard for students to appreciate, enjoy and embrace the nuances and complexities of brand management on an international scale.

Description

Kate Hartley is co-founder and COO of Polpeo, a crisis simulation training consultancy partnered with social media consultancy, The Social Element. She is Managing Director and Owner of PR agency Carrot Communications, an international speaker on crisis communication and sits on the PRCA’s Digital Steering Committee. Her clients include P&O, Atos, Kaspersky and Ask.com.

Communicate in a Crisis is the definitive guide for any PR or marketing professional to recognize, plan and respond to a sudden wildfire of consumer-led reaction, ‘manipulated outrage’ sparked from interaction on newsfeed algorithms, fuelled by social media and the constant demand for an instantaneous response. This book turns the traditional crisis management approach on its head, starting by understanding changing consumer behaviours and the new ‘threat’ for brands, then outlining practical steps to prepare, synchronize and execute a coordinated brand response across all channels - under pressure. It reveals why we love to hate our favourite brands, how to recognize a day to day problem from a crisis, and offers valuable advice, such as using influencers and brand advocates to address social media trolls, rumours and the impact of fake news. With unique case studies, interviews and anecdotes from global leaders, Communicate in a Crisis will embed a bottom-up culture of long-term reputation management, always ready to face the unexpected.

Description

Author Information

The retail industry is facing unprecedented challenges. Across all sectors and markets, retailers are shifting their business models and customer engagement strategies to ensure their survival. The rise of online shopping, and its primary player, Amazon, is at the heart of many of these changes and opportunities. Amazon explores the e-commerce giant’s strategies, providing original insight at a time when the company is on the cusp of revolutionizing itself even further.

Natalie Berg has spent many years helping retailers compete, or partner with, retail giants like Walmart and Amazon. An American speaker and retail commentator, she is former Global Research Director at Planet Retail and runs her own consultancy, NBK Retail, specializing in retail strategy, changing shopping habits and future trends. She is coauthor of Walmart.

Amazon’s relentless dissatisfaction with the status quo is what makes it such an extraordinary retailer. This book explores whether Amazon has what it takes to become a credible grocery retailer, and as it transitions to bricks and mortar retailing, explores whether Amazon’s stores can be as compelling as its online offering and if innovations such as voice technology, checkout-free stores and its Prime ecosystem will fundamentally change the way consumers shop. Written by industry leading retail analysts who have spent decades providing research-based analysis and opinion, Amazon analyzes the impact these initiatives will have on the wider retail sector and the lessons that can be learned from its unprecedented rise to dominance, as stores of the future become less about transactions and more about experiences.

Miya Knights is Head of Eagle Eye Solutions with 20 years’ experience as an analyst, journalist and editor, specializing in enterprise technology use in retail. She owns Retail Technology magazine and is ranked one of Vend’s top 50 retail influencers.

While there are gains to be had by reducing costs, optimizing processes and increasing innovation, the greatest potential in any business is in its people.

Building an Outstanding Workforce is a musthave guide for all professionals looking to leverage the potential of their people and maximise value for all stakeholders.

There is also essential coverage of managing agile teams, the impact of decentralisation and the benefits of embracing diversity and inclusion.

Description

Andy Lancaster is the Head of Learning and Development content at the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD). He has over 25 years’ experience in learning and organizational development in commercial, technological and not-for-profit companies worldwide and in 2017 was listed in the Top 100 Corporate eLearning Movers and Shakers by eLearning Industry.

Learning and Development (L&D) professionals are uniquely placed in an organization to improve both individual employee performance as well as the overall performance of the business. However, this is only possible if learning activity is aligned with the goals of the business. Driving Performance through Learning shows L&D professionals how to identify business needs and ensure that staff effectively develop the skills that will enable a company to achieve its objectives. Covering everything from how to use insights from neuroscience to improve employee attention, engagement and knowledge retention and how to assess which learning technologies will add the greatest value through to how to curate and deliver learning content on the platform best-suited to the learner, Driving Performance through Learning is an essential handbook for all L&D professionals. Including guidance on how to build a culture of collaborative learning and how to move from a traditional course-based approach to employee training to a resource-driven one, this book ensures that learning becomes integrated into an employee’s workflow so that performance improvement is continuous. There is also expert guidance on how to identify which skills are best to develop in-house, which it is more effective to outsource and how to improve knowledge management so that essential information is retained inside the organization instead of being lost when employees leave the business.

Author Information

Blockchain provides a secure ledger of transactions, programmable smart contracts, and real-time trustworthy visibility and insight into the supply chain process. For all the promises it offers to supply chain professionals, however, there’s very little guidance available on how organizations should begin evaluating and using it. Integrating Blockchain into Supply Chain Management provides that much needed step by step guidance.

Remko van Hoek, is Professor of Supply Chain Management in the Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas. Formerly Chief Procurement Officer for the Walt Disney Company, he has held senior supply chain executive roles in the US and Europe at several companies, including Nike and PwC. He also is the Chair of the Board of Directors of the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP).

Integrating Blockchain into Supply Chain Management is a very practical book of tools, frameworks and case studies. It will help students and supply chain managers to evaluate the value proposition blockchain brings. It will then guide them through essential processes for making informed, practical, timely, and business-savvy decisions for using blockchain as an effective supply chain tool. It includes a valuable benchmark survey of the state of play in blockchain in supply chain management, including organisations such as Tyson Foods, IBM and Coca Cola, as well as downloadable frameworks and tools. Online supporting resources include PowerPoints of lesson plans.

Author Information

A supply chain is the process of all parties involved in fulfilling a customer request, while a value chain is a set of interrelated activities a company uses to create a competitive advantage. In Global Value Chain Management the authors bring together a variety of disciplines, showing how to move from traditional supply chain management to value chain management. Research from the (ISM) International School of Management, Germany, originating from a network of companies in a range of sectors, is integrated with case studies to demonstrate particular concepts.

Qeis Kamran is a Professor at ISM International School of Management, Dortmund. He has more than 20 years of sales, management and leadership experience in FMCG, wholesale, retail sales, energy, oil and petrochemicals and consulting industries.

Global Value Chain Management brings together theory and practice and presents tangible ways of creating competitiveness in a changing world through the use of effective models and frameworks. Challenging the traditional Porters Five Forces Model, the authors introduce the important academic disciplines of cybernetics and systems sciences as essential drivers of strategy within the supply chain. Online supporting resources include PowerPoints of lesson plans.

Description

John Fernie is Emeritus Professor of Retail Marketing at Heriot-Watt University. He has written and contributed to numerous textbooks and papers on retail management, especially in the field of retail logistics. He is editor of the International Journal of Retail and Distribution Management.

Retailers are being advised to review their supply chains in a bid to accelerate their speed to market. Fashion Logistics assesses the growth and changes in the industry as well as the drivers of change in the market. Supply chain networks and operations play an integral role in distributing their product across the retail industry, and significant changes within those networks have altered the way in which they function. Manufacturers therefore need to rethink their supply chains so that they are resilient enough to withstand shocks, agile enough to respond quickly to sudden change, flexible enough to customise products, and efficient enough to protect margins. Fashion Logistics assess these forces and changes, and how manufacturers should adapt their working practices accordingly.

David B. Grant is Professor of Logistics at Hull University Business School, UK and Distinguished Senior Fellow at Hanken School of Economics, Helsinki. He has over 175 publications in various refereed journals, books and conference proceedings, and is on the editorial board of many international journals.

The new edition of Fashion Logistics includes updates on CSR, a re-write of the reshoring section, updated case studies and new content covering how manufacturers can adapt their working practices accordingly, and new content on the further demise of the department store sector. Online supporting resources include lecture slides to supplement new content covered in each chapter.

Author Information

Disruptive technologies have the power to upend supply chains, adding uncertainty, cost, and complexity to any business. These technologies can also create competitive advantage, but only if organizations strategically build them into their supply chains. Supply Chain Disruption provides the vital knowledge that supply chain managers need in order to implement disruptive technologies strategically. This essential book avoids a one-size-fits-all approach and encourages the reader to consider customer needs first before aligning appropriate technologies with each supply chain application.

Steve O’Sullivan was formerly Global OEM Supply Chain Program Manager at Logitech then Global Logistics Manager at Nualight. He is now Managing Director of a global supply chain management consultancy. Working with companies such as Morrisons and BT, Steve O’Sullivan creates and implements superior process improvement solutions across the entire supply chain process, while supporting international management teams in meeting and exceeding established targets.

Supply Chain Disruption focuses on information systems, analysing how companies currently integrate and implement potentially disruptive technologies into their supply chain roadmaps. It presents new ways of planning more effectively and efficiently through the use of new tools and techniques, creating improvements in agility, customer service and cost. Online supporting resources include templates for metric-based process models focusing on the key enablers and inhibitors.

Simon Templar is a qualified accountant with 20 years industry experience as well as a lecturer on supply chain and procurement MScs in Cranfield and Plymouth. The author is a founding member of the Supply Chain Finance Community, a not-for-profit association which aims to share best practice and new research in an open, collaborative environment.

The need to contain costs across the business is as strong as ever and the search for cost reduction opportunities is intensifying. There still remains one last major opportunity to take out costs - through the supply chain. Ultimately all costs will make their way to the final marketplace to be reflected in the price paid by the end user. Smart companies instead seek to make the supply chain more competitive through the value it creates and the costs it reduces overall. They have realised that the real competition is not company against company but rather supply chain against supply chain. Supply Chain Management Accounting looks at how the evolution of supply chains has been dramatic over the last few years, with more and more companies moving to sourcing overseas, distributing finished goods to overseas markets, and increasing their international operations. The seeking of low-cost country sourcing, optimizing manufacturing, and exporting products and services has created new challenges to demand forecasting and supply chain planning. Supply Chain Management Accounting presents a wide range of approaches and ground-breaking research findings. The book covers profitability, liquidity and asset utilisation, product costing, activity-based costing, investment appraisal, customer profitability analysis, budgeting and sales and operations planning. Online supporting resources include invaluable study questions and worked solutions to reinforce the learning as well as multiple-choice questions with solutions and PowerPoint activities.

Global third party ecosystems are now an important source of competitive advantage for businesses, but with advances in technology and an increasing reliance on vendors, organizations expose themselves to new risks.

Third Party Risk Management is a practical, stepby-step guide to building a comprehensive third party risk management programme, from creating a full vendor inventory, risk ranking, onsite visits, audit requirements, and reporting the results.

As a long-time supporter of the Shared Assessments Program, he led the development and release of the industry leading Certified Third Party Risk Professional (CTPRP) designation.

Third Party Risk Management also covers the strategic considerations of successfully communicating a new programme, including corporate risk appetite, alignment with business goals, and the importance of executive management support. With expert advice on softwareaided third party assessments, continuous monitoring, cyber threats, and other recent challenges and innovations, this book is essential reading to manage and minimize third party risk in any organization.

All organizations constantly face the need to make important, costly and potentially damaging decisions, often in a state of uncertainty and without all of the necessary information.

Using a variety of example business decisions, from simple and quickly solvable to difficult and long-term, Making Risk-Informed Decisions includes proven frameworks, models, work flows and different types of analysis which can be used to work through them and come to a solution. The book also presents methods of assessing whether past decisions have been successful, and therefore continuously improving the quality of decision making. A case study at the end of the book pulls together the whole methodology, allowing the reader to apply everything learned. Reflecting key themes of the revised ISO 31000 risk management standards, Making Risk-Informed Decisions provides clear guidance on how to make better, more logical choices to save money and increase competitive advantage.

Author Information

Compliance has become an increasingly important business function in any organization, moving beyond simply ensuring that legal requirements and regulations are met and boxes ticked, to demonstrating the significant competitive advantage and value that a robust, strategic compliance programme can bring to your business. The Business Guide to Effective Compliance and Ethics provides compliance officers, decision-makers and business professionals with the necessary practical guidance, skills and tools needed to develop and deliver a successful compliance and ethics programme that meets fundamental legal, political and social requirements.

The Business Guide to Effective Compliance and Ethics protects your organization, whether a large multinational or a small or medium-sized enterprise, from risk of fines, penalties and reputational damage. This book also looks with a much wider lens at the value-add that compliance can bring to organizations, including competitive advantage, career satisfaction, employee and customer loyalty and brand enhancement.

Tom Hickey is currently Legal Director of Strategic Projects at Subsea 7, having previously worked in London, Houston, Kuala Lumpur and New York for HESS Corporation and in Paris for Transocean Ltd. Tony Osborn is a creative consultant, content developer and writer, working with leading corporations around the world.

Description

Alan Calder is Founder and Executive Chairman of IT Governance Ltd. He led the world’s first successful implementation of BS 7799 (now ISO 27001) and has been involved in the development of a wide range of information security management training courses that have been accredited by the International Board for IT Governance Qualifications (IBITGQ).

Faced with the compliance requirements of increasingly punitive information- and privacyrelated regulation, as well as the proliferation of complex threats to information security, there is an urgent need for organizations to adopt IT governance best practice. IT Governance is a key international resource for managers in organizations of all sizes and across industries, and deals with the strategic and operational aspects of information security.

Steve Watkins is an Executive Director at IT Governance Ltd, chair of the ISO/IEC 27001 User Group and contracted technical assessor for UKAS. He is a member of the international technical committee responsible for the ISO 27000 family of standards, and chairs the UK National Standards Body’s technical committee IST/33.

Now in its seventh edition, the bestselling IT Governance provides guidance for companies looking to protect and enhance their information security management systems (ISMS) and protect themselves against cyber threats. The new edition covers changes in global regulation, particularly GDPR, and updates to standards in the ISO/IEC 27000 family, BS 7799-3:2017 (information security risk management) and the latest standards on auditing. It also includes advice on the development and implementation of an ISMS that will meet the ISO 27001 specification and how sector-specific standards can and should be factored in. With information on risk assessments, compliance, equipment and operations security, controls against malware and asset management, IT Governance is the definitive guide to implementing an effective information security management and governance system.
