Adam Smith argued that economic growth occurs through changes in the division of labor. The author defines entrepreneurship as human actions that lead to changes in the division of labor. Three articles are discussed that provide examples of how entrepreneurship changes the division of labor. The first discusses productive versus unproductive entrepreneurship. The second builds an economic model showing how individuals specialize production. The third highlights how knowledge spillovers from companies and universities lead to spin-offs that exploit innovations.

MBA student writes sustainability thesis on Cranmore Foundation
Mr Charles V Towle, a graduate student at San Francisco State University has received a distinction for his thesis on sustainability and the work of Cranmore Foundation. Mr Towle’s thesis makes the case for the need for a new quality of thinking in addressing today’s complex global problems, which he describes as ‘wicked problems’. He explores emerging models of thought aimed at creating sustainability solutions such as the work of Michael Porter and Mark Kramer as well as Umair Haque. His thesis goes on to explore the premise of Cranmore Foundation’s work with wisdom traditions. Further he presents the conceptual outline of one wisdom model articulated by the foundation that supports sustainability.

My seminar paper on Think Tanks as a Source of Disruptive Innovation in Large Corporations tries to propose a viable solution to the problem many large organizations nowadays have: robust, inflexible structures, processes and cultures in which the creation and development of disruptive innovations is almost impossible.
My solution: outsourced, creative, clandestine think tanks or labs that are focusing solely on disruptive innovation outside of the core business of the organization. How can this be a viable solution? Google X might be a popular and successful example.

Unit Lesson Economic Systems An economic system can be defined as the method in which a
nation chooses to distribute resources to the community or specific area (Cullen & Parboteeah,
2017). The economic system of a country may be structured as socialism, capitalism, or a mixed
system. For example, the United States economic system is characterized as a mainly capitalist
economic system. Capitalist economics take place when companies are privately owned and
are able to carry out activities in a competitive market to make profits. In a socialist economy,
the state owns companies or makes decisions about production and pricing in pursuit of a
collective goal (Cullen & Parboteeah, 2017). The mixed economy is a combination of socialism
and capitalism. An example of a mixed economy is India. The businesses in India are
government and privately owned, producing a mixed economy. UNIT II STUDY GUIDE
Institutional Context of Multinational Management and Managing Ethical and Social
Responsibility MBA 6631, Intercultural Management 2 UNIT x STUDY GUIDE Title Social
Institutions Industrialization refers to a country’s industrial development. It “refers to the cultural
and economic changes that are brought about by fundamental changes in how production is
organized and distributed in society” (Cullen & Parboteeah, 2017, p. 67). The authors categorize
three specific industrializations—a preindustrial society, an industrial society, and a
postindustrial society—which affect both organizations and individuals. The preindustrial society
is dominated by agriculture. Whereas a preindustrial society can provide a company with cheap
labor, it can cost the company more in the long run due to the lack of infrastructure and support.
An industrial society is heavily focused on manufacturing and production. This type of society
requires a vast range of skill levels for workers to handle production and technology. Lastly, the
postindustrial society emphasizes services employing highly trained personnel that were trained
for their job positions through formal education. All three levels of industrialization play a vital
role in the success of strategic multinational management (Cullen & Parboteeah, 2017).
Multinational companies (MNCs) can use the levels as a gauge to determine where to do
business. How one chooses to worship and believe in a structure of faith is known as religion. In
most societies, religion can be characterized as a formal method of worship. Religion can be
reflected by dress, diet, behavior, and even holiday beliefs. Max Weber, a German sociologist,
is best known for his Protestant work ethic theory. The theory argues that Protestant ethics are
important as these result in hard work, success, and wealth (Cullen & Parboteea.

Abortion is one of the most difficult and controversial moral issu.docxannetnash8266
Abortion is one of the most difficult and controversial moral issues we will consider. Listen to both sides, even if it is difficult to do. Both sides have important moral insights, even if ultimately these insights are outweighed by the insights of the other side. The goal of this discussion is not to convince you to accept one position over the other, but to help you to understand both sides. As you consider this difficult issue, it is important to distinguish two questions:
· Is abortion morally wrong?
· Should abortion be illegal?
Choose one of the questions above and argue both sides with supporting evidence. Please write your discussion choice in the title line.
For this paper, you will analyze how foresight, creativity, and innovation are separate, yet interrelated, concepts. To prepare for this assignment, Moonshots for Management" (Hamel, 2009) and "Welcome to a World of Change: Life in the 21st century" (Puccio, et al, 2012) . Also consider the tensions between innovation and creativity addressed in the article "Institutionalizing Ethical Innovation in Organizations: An Integrated Causal Model of Moral Innovation Decision Processes". Use this article as a foundation for evaluating creativity, foresight, and innovation within an ethical model.
Select an organization – it could be your present company or a previous company for which you worked in the past, or an organization in your personal life (professional, fraternal, charitable, social, etc.) – and describe a situation that demonstrates this organization’s foresight, creativity, and innovation within an ethical model. Some examples situations might include the development of a new product or service, a removal of a barrier to productivity, an action to improve employee productivity, a marketing/advertising campaign that induced more sales, a fund raising drive, a membership drive, etc. Your paper should:
1. Provide an analysis of how the organization demonstrated each of these separate concepts (creativity, innovation, and foresight) in an interrelated and ethical way.
2. Next, analyze the specific situation you have presented in light of foresight, creativity, and innovation in one of the following ways:
3. Analyze how the situation you have presented reflects at least three workplace trends discussed by Puccio, et al. (2012) or,
4. Analyze how at least three of the management challenges and goals discussed by Hamel (2009) helped you to understand the situation you presented.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.
