Book excerpt: Much has been written about Covid-19 victims, how scientists raced to understand and treat the disease, and how governments did (or did not) protect their citizens. Less has been written about the pandemic’s impact on the global economy and how companies coped as the competitive environment was upended. In his new book, "The New (Ab)Normal", MIT Professor Yossi Sheffi maps how the Covid-19 pandemic impacted business, supply chains, and society. He exposes the critical role supply chains play in helping people, governments, and companies to manage the crisis. The book draws on executive interviews, pandemic media coverage, and historical analyses. Sheffi also builds on themes from his books "The Resilient Enterprise" (2005) and "The Power of Resilience" (2015) to enrich the narrative. The author paints a compelling picture of how the Covid-19 virus is changing many facets of human life and what our post-pandemic world might look like. This must-read book helps companies to redefine their business models and adjust to a fast-evolving economic landscape. The stage is set In Part 1 of the book, “What Happened,” the author looks at how companies fought to mend the global economic fabric even as the virus ripped more holes in it. Part 2, “Living with Uncertainty,” views the crisis through a supply chain risk management lens derived from Yossi Sheffi’s previous books. This perspective shows how companies create corporate immune systems to quickly recognize and manage large-scale disruptions. The ongoing pandemic is creating a new normal in life, work, and education—covered in Part 3, “Adjustment Required.” Consumer fears about the contagion as well as government mandates require businesses in industries such as retail, hospitality, entertainment, sports, and education to create “safe zones” for workers and customers. Many elements of the book – especially in Part 4, “Supply Chains for the Future” – show how the virus accelerated preexisting trends in technology adoption. China was the epicenter of the pandemic; it also was the first nation to be disrupted and recover. Part 5 of the book, “Of Politics and Pandemics,” explains why reports that companies are abandoning China in favor of other offshore manufacturing centers do not reflect reality. Fundamentally, The New (Ab)Normal is about businesses trying to create a better future in a time of extreme uncertainty – a point emphasized in Part 6, “The Next Opportunities.” The outlook is not necessarily gloomy. The advance of technology is accelerating, a trend that can level the playing field between small and large companies. Nimble small businesses are using a growing array of off-the-shelf cloud computing and mobile apps to deploy sophisticated technologies in their supply chains and customer interfaces. The New (Ab)Normal Another new normal is working from home. Remote working enables individuals to live anywhere and companies to recruit talent from anywhere. Education, especially higher education, faces a major disruption (and major opportunity) that is likely to shake the high-cost model of in-person education in favor of online or hybrid education. Regrettably, the book recognizes one trend accentuated by Covid-19--the growing inequality, and anticipates that the new normal will be more stratified.

Book excerpt: The world after Covid-19, a collection of insights, views, and experiences published by the Global Business School Network (GBSN). The book consists of 20 interviews conducted by GBSN CEO Dan LeClair and Board Chairman Soumitra Dutta as the world first went into lockdown in the earlier stages of the global pandemic in 2020. On the rationale for the book LeClair writes: "Covid-19 was breaking our normal, magnifying long-standing injustices, and pulling the future forward. But what will the new normal look like? What does it mean to "build back better?" What are the implications of accelerating change? In short, what world will we find on the other side of the portal? We conducted the interviews in this volume from April to June 2020 with these questions in mind. We wanted to make sense of the future through the minds of business school deans, who by the nature of their roles must see the world through multiple lenses-business and higher education, theory and practice, global and local. These initial interviewees gave us so much more that we extended the conversations to include business leaders." The interviews were a reminder that leadership is an intensely human activity, revealing as much about people as it did organizations, economies, and societies. Common themes included: Human--and Humane--Leadership, with responses personal and sometimes emotional as leaders discussed their responsibilities for the health and well-being of their people; Teaching with tech--the acceleration of digital transformation; and Globalization vs turning inward--would the world work together or pull apart, both during and after the crisis? Some were confident we are not going back to normal, most certain of long-lasting change, and at least one certain we should be planning for a world with not after Covid-19.Dutta says: "Many important questions need to be asked by business school leaders as we start the slow process of coming out of the pandemic and reshaping business school education for a sustainable and inclusive future. Determining which questions to ask is the first and important challenge for a business school leader."Business School Leaders: - Veneta Andonova, Dean, Universidad de los Andes School of Management, Colombia.- Luiz Brito, Dean, FGV EAESP (Escola de Administração de Empresas de São Paulo da Fundação Getulio Vargas), Brazil.- Rafael Gómez Nava, Director General and Dean, IPADE Business School, Mexico, Panama, Costa Rica.- Edeltraud Hanappi-Egger, Rector, Vienna University of Economics and Business, Austria.- Franz Heukamp, Dean, IESE Business School at the University of Navarra, Spain.- Erika James, Dean, The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, United States.- Sherif Kamel, Professor and Dean, School of Business at the American University in Cairo; President of the American Chamber of Commerce in Egypt.- Jean-François Manzoni, President of the International Institute for Management Development (IMD), Switzerland.- Enase Okonedo, Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Pan-Atlantic University, Nigeria.- François Ortalo-Magné, Dean, London Business School, United Kingdom.- Peter Tufano, Peter Moores Dean and Professor of Finance, Saïd Business School at the University of Oxford, United Kingdom.The Business Leaders: - Khalfan Belhoul, CEO, Dubai Future Foundation.- Sangeet Chowfla, President & CEO, Graduate Management Admission Council (GMAC), United States.- Nelly ElZayat, Co-founder and Director, Newton Education Services; Advisor to the Minister of Education, Egypt.- Khaled Hashem, Country President, Honeywell for Egypt and Libya.- Claudia Jañez Sanchez, President, CEEG, Mexico.

Book excerpt: Technology has always been important to organizations and a crucial aspect of their continued development. Organizations that already relied on the most up-to-date technology and provided forward-thinking leadership had a smoother transition during the COVID-19 pandemic, which created turmoil for other organizations that were lacking in this type of leadership. Leadership that implements current and future technology is vital to thrive in the post-pandemic world. Further study on this type of management and practice is required to ensure businesses are prepared and knowledgeable. Business Models to Promote Technology, Culture, and Leadership in Post-COVID-19 Organizations delves into how virtual technology has evolved to create remote offices and remote teaming in areas such as health, education, engineering, and other business solutions. The book also explores culture in a business and how individuals may interface, communicate, and collaborate in past, current, and future business models. Covering key topics such as management, public health, and society, this reference work is ideal for business owners, managers, human resource professionals, supervisors, scholars, researchers, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.

Book excerpt: An optimistic vision of the future after Covid-19 by a leading professor of globalisation at the University of Oxford. We are at a crossroads. The wrecking-ball of Covid-19 has destroyed global norms. Many think that after the devastation there will be a bounce back. To Ian Goldin, Professor of Development and Globalisation at the University of Oxford, this is a retrograde notion. He believes that this crisis can create opportunities for change, just as the Second World War forged the ideas behind the Beveridge Report. Published in 1942, it was revolutionary and laid the foundations for the welfare state alongside a host of other social and economic reforms, changing the world for the better. Ian Goldin tackles the challenges and opportunities posed by the pandemic, ranging from globalisation to the future of jobs, income inequality and geopolitics, the climate crisis and the modern city. It is a fresh, bold call for an optimistic future and one we all have the power to create.

Book excerpt: 'This is the most important - and fascinating - book yet written about how the digital age will affect our world' Walter Isaacson, author of Steve Jobs From two leading thinkers, the widely anticipated book that describes a new, hugely connected world of the future, full of challenges and benefits which are ours to meet and harness. The New Digital Age is the product of an unparalleled collaboration: full of the brilliant insights of one of Silicon Valley's great innovators - what Bill Gates was to Microsoft and Steve Jobs was to Apple, Schmidt (along with Larry Page and Sergey Brin) was to Google - and the Director of Google Ideas, Jared Cohen, formerly an advisor to both Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice and Hillary Clinton. Never before has the future been so vividly and transparently imagined. From technologies that will change lives (information systems that greatly increase productivity, safety and our quality of life, thought-controlled motion technology that can revolutionise medical procedures, and near-perfect translation technology that allows us to have more diversified interactions) to our most important future considerations (curating our online identity and fighting those who would do harm with it) to the widespread political change that will transform the globe (through transformations in conflict, increasingly active and global citizenries, a new wave of cyber-terrorism and states operating simultaneously in the physical and virtual realms) to the ever present threats to our privacy and security, Schmidt and Cohen outline in great detail and scope all the promise and peril awaiting us in the coming decades. A breakthrough book - pragmatic, inspirational and totally fascinating. Whether a government, a business or an individual, we must understand technology if we want to understand the future. 'A brilliant guidebook for the next century . . . Schmidt and Cohen offer a dazzling glimpse into how the new digital revolution is changing our lives' Richard Branson

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few crises in modern history have so completely disrupted every aspect of daily life as has the Covid-19 pandemic. What began as a small medical ripple in Wuhan, China, a city many of us had never heard of, quickly erupted into a tsunami of epic proportions. Every market, industry, vertical, profession, service, and category of product was in some way rocked by its impact. And, for the first time in recorded history, every wheel, cog and gear in the global retail industry ground to a virtual halt. From two-time, international best-selling author and futurist Doug Stephens, Resurrecting Retail is not just a riveting story of the unprecedented crash of an industry during this time of crisis but a roadmap for its rebirth. Meticulously researched in real time from inside the crisis, Resurrecting Retail provides a comprehensive and surprising vision of how Covid-19 will reshape every aspect of consumer life, including the very essence of why we shop.
