NEW EDITION OF BESTSELLER COACHING BASICSSecond EditionLisa HanebergApr 2016 144pp9781607281504 Paperback £25.50/ €32.00ATD Training Basics

Great coaching makes a world of difference. Coaching is one of the quickest and most effective ways to advance the success of an organisation. Yet it remains underused and misunderstood, and the term is often used synonymously with corrective counselling, encouragement, or the many helpful tactics in between. In Coaching Basics you’ll discover a precise coaching framework along with insights from 40 experienced coaches, including Barry Goldberg and Marshall Goldsmith. This refreshed edition also homes in on what it takes to build influencing skills and introduces new content on microcoaching to highlight practical ways to leverage technology. Part of ATD’s Training Basics series, Coaching Basics presents the theory and follows it up with easily applicable techniques, examples, and exercises that will help you perfect essential coaching skills.

SUCCESSFUL MANAGEMENT IN THE DIGITAL AGEJohn HarteApr 2016 288pp9781412863247 Paperback £27.50 / €35.009781412862776 Hardback £68.50 / €87.00

Successful Management in the Digital Age examines key factors for success in today’s business environment - finding markets, being vigilant for new trends and changes, exploiting opportunities, and overcoming obstacles. While acknowledging the benefits of technological advances in some areas, John Harte shows how artificial intelligence is limited and often imperfect. Becoming thoughtlessly dependent on it may replace the far more rewarding benefits of human ingenuity, creativity and innovation. For Harte, organisational complacency is one of the prime causes of business inertia. It often results from past successes that create an illusion of wisdom and invulnerability which blinds leaders to warning signs. Harte reminds executives and entrepreneurs of the basic formula for success in any business - producing a product or service that people want, and providing it at the right time for the right price, in order to make a suitable profit. He warns us to resist temptations of the digital era, such as automation that results in over-production and market saturation, outsourcing that risks losing customers, and losing control of brands and markets by needless offshoring.

CIRCUS MAXIMUSThe Economic Gamble Behind Hosting the Olympics and the World Cup, Second Edition, Updated & ExpandedAndrew ZimbalistJan 2016 224pp9780815727248 Paperback £18.50 / €24.00

Author Andrew Zimbalist looks beyond the headlines of two of the world’s most beloved sporting events: the Olympics and the World Cup. In the expanded and updated edition of his bestselling book, Circus Maximus: The Economic Gamble Behind Hosting the Olympics and the World Cup, Zimbalist tackles the bogus claim that the cities chosen to host these high-profile sporting events experience an economic windfall. He now takes aim at the outrageous FIFA scandal, Boston’s bid for the 2024 summer Olympics, and the criticism surrounding the 2015 Women's World Cup.

Circus Maximus focuses on major cities like London and Barcelona that have previously hosted these sporting events to provide context for cities like Tokyo and Rio de Janerio, which are currently bearing the weight of exploding expenses, corruption, and protests. Zimbalist offers a sobering look at the Olympics and the World Cup outside of the echo chamber.


HONG KONG IN THE SHADOW OF CHINALiving with the LeviathanRichard C. BushMay 2016 170pp9780815728122 Paperback £25.50 / €32.00

Hong Kong in the Shadow of China explores the recent Hong Kong turmoil, where the Chinese government insisted on gradual movement toward full democracy and protesters occupied major thoroughfares to insist on full democracy now. Fuelling this struggle is deep public resentment over growing inequality and how the political system established by China and dominated by the local business community reinforces the divide been those who have a lot and those who have little., Richard Bush, Director of The Brookings Institution’s Center on East Asia Policy Studies, considers what Hong Kong and China must do to ensure both economic competitiveness and good governance, and the implications of Hong Kong developments for United States policy.

MADE IN AFRICALearning to Compete in IndustryCarol Newman et alFeb 2016 306pp9780815728153 Paperback £29.50 / €37.00

The role of industry in low income countries is important. Industry is good for growth, job creation, and poverty reduction. All of these factors depend on the size and the rate of growth of industry. Africa doesn’t have enough industry to reach the Sustainable Development Goals for growth, job creation, and poverty reduction. Africa’s share of global manufacturing has fallen from about three percent in 1970 to less than two percent in 2010. Why is there so little industry in Africa? Made in Africa: Learning to Compete in Industry outlines a new industrialization strategy to help Africa compete in global markets. This book draws on case study and qualitative research from Africa and emerging Asia to understand what drives firm-level productivity in low income countries. The results show that while traditional concerns such as infrastructure, skills, and the regulatory environment are important, they alone will not be sufficient for Africa to industrialize. The book also addresses how industrialization strategies will need to adapt to the region’s growing resource abundance.


OPEN FOR BUSINESSThe New Cuban EconomyRichard E. FeinbergMar 2016 220pp9780815727675 Hardback £18.50 / €24.00

90 miles off the coast of Florida a new revolution is afoot. This time instead of guerrillas marching through the streets of Havana, it is a global economy that will revolutionize Cuba. Now open to the world, how will this nascent economy develop?

Open for Business: The New Cuban Economy, Richard Feinberg’s new book, examines the Cuban economy from its long held and outdated economic model to its early steps into developing a dynamic market economy. He examines key issues like the role foreign investors will play, how Cubans will forge a path to entrepreneurship, and the roadmap from other emerging economies.

As Cuba’s economy awakens from the post-Castro dream, it will do so on its own terms and with a flavour that is entirely Cuban. Feinberg’s book speaks both to Cuba’s legacy and to its new horizons on the world stage.

FISCAL MONITOR, APRIL 2016Acting Now, Acting TogetherIMF StaffApr 2016 122pp9781513510590 Paperback £33.50 / €42.00

The global economy remains fragile at this time. While the recovery in advanced economies is softening, many emerging market and developing economies have experienced a significant economic slowdown, and some large countries show signs of distress. Global risk aversion has risen, and commodity prices have continued to fall since the April 2015 Fiscal Monitor. The weaker outlook and concerns about the ability of policymakers to provide an adequate and swift policy response have amplified downward risks and clouded global prospects.

According to this issue of the Fiscal Monitor, the challenging environment calls for a comprehensive policy response to boost growth and reduce vulnerabilities. In particular, it is critical to identify policies that could lift productivity growth by promoting innovation. Fiscal policy can play an important role in stimulating innovation through its effects on research and development, entrepreneurship, and technology transfer.

Major macroeconomic realignments are affecting prospects differentially across the world’s countries and regions. The April 2016 WEO examines the causes and implications of these realignments - including the slowdown and rebalancing in China, a further decline in commodity prices, a related slowdown in investment and trade, and declining capital flows to emerging market and developing economies - which are generating substantial uncertainty and affecting the outlook for the global economy.

Additionally, analytical chapters examine the slowdown in capital flows to emerging market economies since their 2010 peak and assess whether product and labour market reforms can improve the economic outlook in advanced economies

John M. Legge shows the many ways in which the real world diverges from economics textbooks. He argues that mainstream economic theory took a disastrous turn 140 years ago, when it attempted to use calculus to explain human behaviour. A real economy involves people who are not variables in equations. This error led to a second, mainstream economics becoming obsessed with equilibrium. However, constant change is the reality and one cannot explain the present without understanding the path taken to get here. Legge places the economy within society, and society within the environment, explaining that every significant decision has a social and environmental impact, as well as an economic dimension. Seeking to provide answers to students, professional business managers, and those interested in the political process, this work addresses the gap between theory and reality.


WORLD ECONOMIC SITUATION AND PROSPECTS 2016United Nations, Department of Economic and Social AffairsApr 2016 228pp9789211091724 Paperback £56.50 / €71.00

This publication is the definitive report of the United Nations on the state of the world economy. It is jointly produced by the Department of Economic and Social Affairs, the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development and the five United Nations Regional Commissions. It provides an overview of recent global economic performance and short-term prospects for the world economy and of some key global economic policy and development issues.

Global economic growth is forecast to increase marginally over the next two years at 3.1% in 2015 and 3.3% in 2016, compared with an estimated growth of 2.6 per cent for 2014. An expected US interest rate increase, remaining euro area fragility, a further slowdown in developing economies and several geopolitical conflicts pose major concerns for the global economic outlook today.
