English | April 11th, 2017 | ISBN: 0446568813, 1612680178 | 336 pages | EPUB | April 2017 marks 20 years since Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Poor Dad first made waves in the Personal Finance arena. It has since become the #1 Personal Finance book of all time... translated into dozens of languages and sold around the world. Rich Dad Poor Dad is Robert's story of growing up with two dads — his real father and the father of his best friend, his rich dad — and the ways in which both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing. The book explodes the myth that you need to earn a high income to be rich and explains the difference between working for money and having your money work for you. 20 Years... 20/20 Hindsight In the 20th Anniversary Edition of this classic, Robert offers an update on what we've seen over the past 20 years related to money, investing, and the global economy. Sidebars throughout the book will take readers “fast forward" — from 1997 to today — as Robert assesses how the principles taught by his rich dad have stood the test of time. In many ways, the messages of Rich Dad Poor Dad, messages that were criticized and challenged two decades ago, are more meaningful, relevant and important today than they were 20 years ago. As always, readers can expect that Robert will be candid, insightful... and continue to rock more than a few boats in his retrospective. Will there be a few surprises? Count on it. Rich Dad Poor Dad... • Explodes the myth that you need to earn a high income to become rich • Challenges the belief that your house is an asset • Shows parents why they can't rely on the school system to teach their kids about money • Defines once and for all an asset and a liability • Teaches you what to teach your kids about money for their future financial success

English | 2026 | ISBN: 9819826772 | 692 pages | True PDF | This book provides a comprehensive introduction to financial valuation and financial data analysis using econometric methods. It is intended for advanced finance undergraduates and graduate students, offering detailed guidance on applying econometric techniques to real-world financial problems.

The pedagogical approach in this book employs various suitable econometric methods such as multiple linear and panel regressions, time series analyses, cointegration, maximum likelihood, the generalized method of moments to perform estimation and testing of popular financial models using appropriate financial data. It provides for very effective learning by a finance professional or student who wants to be well equipped in both theory and the ability to investigate the models using appropriate econometrics and statistical techniques.

English | 2026 | ISBN: 1032994983 | 216 pages | True PDF,EPUB | Small words carry enormous weight. Your words, chosen with care, are among the most powerful tools you have for making people feel seen, heard, and valued. Saying "tell me more" instead of moving on. Choosing we over I or knowing when not to speak at all. These micro-decisions shape how leaders are perceived, how teams perform, and whether organizations thrive or stagnate. Small Words of Leadership examines the often-underestimated dimension of leadership communication. Companies are defined by what leaders say, and the smallest elements of language accumulate into defining our culture. Word choice, framing, tone, silence. Drawing on psychological research and real-world examples, each chapter examines a specific facet of intentional communication, including inclusive language, the strategic use of silence, the architecture of feedback, and the subtle signals that either build or erode trust and belonging. Leadership development has long emphasized bold decisions and grand strategies. This book makes the case for something quieter and more durable. Everyday conversations are where leadership actually lives. Practical and immediately applicable, it offers leaders at every level a new lens for examining their own language habits and a concrete set of tools for communicating with greater precision, empathy, and effect.

English | 2026 | ISBN: 1041156138 | 261 pages | True PDF,EPUB | Building Adaptive Organisations is a practical guide to thriving in an era of volatility, complexity, and rapid technological change. The book argues that the 300-year-old organisational model, designed for stability and control, is no longer fit for the demands of Industry 4.0 and the changing workplace. The outdated pyramidal enterprise has bred disengaged workforces, out-of-touch leaders, and cultures that collapse under constant disruption. The book presents a compelling alternative that transforms organisations into self-organising, emergent ecosystems. Drawing on industrial-revolution history, organisational theory, original models, and case studies, it demonstrates how to ingrain adaptability into the heart of systems and culture. Building Adaptive Organisations argues that enduring adaptability will never come from top-down leadership, isolated agile initiatives, complicated nested circles, mindset shifts, or cultural makeovers. Instead, the study focuses on five critical system levers that drive adaptability: culture, design, technology, people, and process. It provides practical guidance on how to build an adaptive culture across the organisation’s architecture; designing modular structures with self-organising governance and flexible workflows; integrating digital transformation into the organisation’s core operations; enabling people strategies that support adaptive workforces; and implementing transformational change as a shared, emergent, enterprise-wide endeavour. Offering clear concepts, tools, and pathways, this book equips system leaders and organisational designers to build adaptive, responsive organisations capable of navigating the turbulence of Industry 4.0 and an increasingly unpredictable world.

English | 2026 | ISBN-10: 1636942350 | 86 pages| PDF Your Audit Report Matters as Much as the Findings. An audit report is more than a recap of conversations-it's the formal record that establishes what was verified and validated, what must be corrected, and what can be improved.

Writing Effective Audit Reports demonstrates how disciplined reporting transforms audit activity into defensible conclusions that protect the organization and drive meaningful change. This book will show you how effective audit reports: Define nonconformities vs. improvement opportunities Protect privacy and confidential information Demonstrate verification and validation Support objective, defensible management decisions

Finished goods are imported to Africa from the US, Europe, China and Japan, while commodities remain the primary export. Addressing this balance must be the primary focus of initiatives to foster economic growth and development across the region in the coming years. However, there is currently a lack of intellectual discourse that incorporates diverse firm-level and institutional-level theories, as well as the stakeholder perspective, to explain the transformation of Sub-Saharan Africa into a production economy. This two-volume edited work brings together scholars of business in Africa and economic transformation to discuss topics including the knowledge economy, inter-regional relations, supply chains, the informal economy, the service sector and more, creating a broad and probing analysis of Africa’s potential for transformation and strategies to achieve it. This second volume explores the relationship between institutions and sectoral productivity in SSA, emphasising the need for policies that integrate informal economy players into the formal structure to enhance socio-economic development. The volume suggest that strong governance, aligned policies, and the inclusion of informal sector innovations are crucial for improving productivity and achieving sustainable economic transformation in SSA. It will be of interest to scholars of business in Africa, international business, developing economies, business strategy and innovation.
