The Compleat Biz

The Business Model for the 21st Century

By: Rob Wherrett

This far-sighted book shows how, in the 21st Century, we can develop a model for the organisation that is built on a philosophy that considers people and sustainability but above all else answers the question "Why are we in business?" It is intended to help all those who seek to make their organisations rewarding places to work and at the same time be responsive to the world around them and the people involved. This really is a different way of looking at what we do and why we do it. Not from the standpoint of right or wrong but from understanding the overall consequences of our strategies and their execution. It explodes several myths that plague management, including the idea that never-ending growth is an essential for success. Importantly, the writing looks forward and provides us with models that are very much in tune with the changing world and the need to re-assess how we operate on planet earth. It contains a serious message delivered in an engaging way, with humour and insight, drawing on real-life situations and experience. An intriguing approach to the complex problems that we call business.

Australian Leisure

By: A J Veal,Simon Darcy,Rob Lynch

For first year students in tertiary leisure studies programs, both Leisure Studies and Social Science. Australian Leisure 4e provides an introduction to and analysis of a broadly defined concept of leisure. It integrates Australian and international knowledge so that the book is an Australian interpretation, based largely on local sources, but which engages with relevant international research and theory. This edition has been extensively reviewed and updated and includes new chapters on social networks, global cultures and events. Leisure is not just sport, or the arts, or outdoor recreation, it is all these things and more, including tourism, gambling, hobbies, television watching, entertainment, play and doing nothing in particular. The purpose of the text is to illuminate leisure and its place in past, present and future Australian society. The text is designed to lead students into the subject and provide pointers to more detailed study, through discussion questions and guides to further reading.
