The document discusses the global financial crisis from the perspective of German ordnungspolitik. It makes three key points:
1. The crisis has significant implications, changing the premises of global institutional change and policies in recent decades. It also highlights our inability to forecast crises and their consequences.
2. The failure of economics contributed greatly to the crisis, as economic theories guided flawed regulations and ignored important factors like asset prices and wealth effects.
3. Moving forward, countries need less emphasis on bailing out businesses and more focus on safeguarding financial products, containing the role of ratings agencies, and increasing personal liability in the financial system to minimize externalities of crises.

in 2018, Dr Cherry Vu (T.S. Vũ Anh Đào) and Rob England started travelling from New Zealand to Vietnam, to teach, coach, and consult to senior executives and owners on business agility, calling themselves Teal Unicorn. Their dozens of clients range from twenty to twenty thousand employees, in industries such as food, real estate, wholesale, retail, manufacturing, logistics, and banking. When COVID hit, they pivoted to serving Vietnam online from Wellington (and from their caravan travelling around the country).
The results their clients get are so good that they have difficulty overcoming the justifiable scepticism of anything written by a consultancy about themselves. In Vietnamese, Cherry has tens of thousands of followers, is a best selling author, and is overloaded with work. In English, not so much. They've written two books that both get 5-star ratings but aren't widely known. Even an article in the BAI's quarterly Journal Emergence has been met largely with silence.
In this presentation, they share those fantastic results and answer your questions. They want you to know that business agility really works.

The document discusses problem solving as one of the individual's key strengths. People who know the individual note that they are great at solving problems, which comes naturally to them and seems to energize them. Problem solving is something the individual habitually does and has been noted by others as a strength on multiple occasions. The document explores problem solving as a potential "super power" for the individual.
This document summarizes Robin Frank's presentation on creating a personal brand and networking for career success.

It discusses the importance of an engaging online presence on LinkedIn and social media to establish expertise and be memorable. Specific tips are provided for crafting an effective personal profile, building connections, and using LinkedIn to find referrals and opportunities through strategic networking.

Creative Restart 2024: Mike Martin - Finding a way around “no”Taste
Ideas that are good for business and good for the world that we live in, are what I’m passionate about.
Some ideas take a year to make, some take 8 years. I want to share two projects that best illustrate this and why it is never good to stop at “no”.
THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

What will you learn in this course? Our course is divided into MODULES. Each week, we focus on a new topic that is necessary for divalicious success
that’s our goal…. This is what u need to keep in mind throughout the entire course
Success means different things to different people. Determine what success means to YOU
These are necessary when CREATING YOUR IDEA
Why should you take the plunge?
You need to turn your CHALLENGES into SOLUTIONS
Tap into YOU- who ARE you and what makes you special?
BROOKE- you need to change this slide when you are presenting the course by yourself Set up your PERSONAL ASSESSMENT
Outline and be AWARE of what your strengths and weaknesses are. This way, you can determine what VALUE you can offer others (via your strengths) an what you need to LEVERAGE (via your weaknesses)
To most successful entrepreneurs are those who turn their PASSION into a business
Self worth exercise. HOW MUCH ARE YOU WORTH? EXERCISE: write down THREE services that you can offer to someone. How MUCH is that service worth? Write it down on paper and keep/post it so you are reminded of your worth
Let’s get started on setting your idea up
Top 20 list of things to do once you have your IDEA
Don’t quit your day job. Don’t incorporate. Seventy five percent of all businesses are sole proprietorships, and they already make money. Don’t get a bank account. Your personal banking account will work just fine if someone wants to write you a check, or if you need to pay for something. Don’t rent an office. Work from home. It won’t require a first, last and security deposit. Plus, it’s tax deductible . Don’t hire an attorney. What’s an attorney going to tell that you didn’t already know, or couldn’t figure out on Nolo or in a good bookstore? There are only two times to call an attorney: if you’re in jail, or if someone else’s attorney contacts you. Don’t hire an accountant. Quickbooks Simple Start will get you going. Don’t get a loan. To get a loan from anyone, even your family, will require that you do too many items on this list. And besides, if you get a loan, you know work for the bank — not for yourself. Don’t hire anyone. Don’t hire someone if you can do it yourself. For everything else, use contractors and give them 1099 . Don’t try to patent anything. It takes 1.5 to 2.5 years to get a patent . Who knows what the market will look like then. Don’t advertise. Advertising costs money, and takes time to perfect. Selling takes only you. Don’t buy office supplies. If you need a pencil, get one out of the kitchen or your son’s backpack. You are working from home, aren’t you? Don’t buy any equipment. Outsource everything. Fedex Kinkos can handle all of your printing, and instead of splurging on a postal meter head down the post office . Need something big? Rent it! If it’s not something you can rent by the day, maybe there’s another local business with one. Can you rent it during their off hours in the middle of the night? Don’t try to find a partner. What do you need a parter for? Capital? Don’t take loans. Need someone with some sales experience? If you the inventor of your product/service can’t sell it — no one will be able to. Don’t get a business telephone number or mailing address. You have a cellphone, use it. If someone needs to mail you something, have them send it to your house. You’re working there, remember
Don’t get stuck in the NOW
Group Activity? Guest Speaker? Article Discussion?
In Module 2, we will start working on your business plan and the details on HOW you will execute your business
