This book provides entrepreneurs with a clear, specific road map to successful business and growth management, explaining the vital details of techniques for executing changes in day-to-day business operations to handle rapid business growth. For many entrepreneurs, the transition from start-up to rapid growth is the most difficult and risky time for them and their companies. Failure to manage business growth occurs not because entrepreneurs choose the wrong growth strategy; it’s because leaders and employees fail to execute the right internal strategies to scale up business operations to hand

This chapter pursues some questions about religiosity’s intersections with contemporary secularity. Traditional religiosity persists in economically advanced nations, such as the United States. The nones, those who have abandoned religious affiliations, continue to hold various kinds of religious belief. In addition, forms of contemporary religiosity often embrace most of secularism’s basic premises. Eight central attributes of secular spirituality can be identified: eclecticism, self-growth, relevance to life, self-direction, openness to wonder, authenticity beyond churches, metaphysical expl

This chapter shows how the Estates were transformed from a military factor in the older sense of territorial defense into an essentially civilian support organization for the standing army. The growth and durability of the commissariat they established for guiding, billeting, feeding, and paying troops reflected the rise of the army and the central agency responsible for military economy known as the General Field War Commissariat. This development suggests how the Habsburg dynastic state could dispense with expensive institution-building because it was able to rely on already-extant, corporat

This chapter examines one of the most visible institutional expressions of contemporary religious vitality, the American-style evangelical ‘megachurch’, which has proliferated globally since at least the 1970s—with the notable exception of the European continent. While it is tempting to attribute this disparity to a perceived mismatch between European cultural norms and the alleged ‘Americanness’ of the megachurch (i.e. the valorization of bigness, consumerism, and popular leisure aesthetics), there is an alternative historical explanation as well: the ‘gospel of growth’, a long-standing theol

Precision Agriculture (PA) is an approach to managing the variability in production agriculture in a more economic and environmentally efficient manner. It has been pioneered as a management tool in the grains industry, and while its development and uptake continues to grow amongst grain farmers worldwide, a broad range of other cropping industries have embraced the concept. This book explains general PA theory, identifies and describes essential tools and techniques, and includes practical examples from the grains industry.

Economists often conflate the theory of economic development with the theory of economic growth. This practice has become increasingly popular since Robert Solow made elegant improvements to the Harrod–Domar growth model, but left it unclear whether it was meant to be applicable in developing countries. Solow’s model has one sector only and aggregates growth as increased GNP. It has no place for changes in the balance between economic sectors that characterize development. A related technique is growth accounting, which disaggregates growth into amounts generated by capital and labour inputs,

Firms’ access to capital markets among Eurozone countries is a challenging issue for the EU Capital Markets Union (CMU) agenda.

Using survey-based research, we show which firm-specific attributes and country-specific features foster a firm’s likelihood of accessing non-bank sources of finance. Our results reveal that a few Eurozone countries appear to have achieved high access to capital market financing, but there is substantial unexploited potenti
