This book shows you

- How to think smarter and act faster

- Embrace the new tricks of business

- Understand how gamechangers dream and disrupt

- Deliver practical results and win.

Gamechangers are the next generation of brands and business, shaking up markets by playing a different game and redefining markets in their own vision. They win through ambition and innovation rather than legacy and scale, out-thinking the competition, focusing on the growth markets, and embracing technology in more human ways.

The book is in two parts, top-and-tailed by a scene-setting introduction and a practical, feature and tool-packed Lab. Part 1, Play the Game, shows you how to generate the ideas and innovation that set gamechangers apart. Part 2 explores extraordinary next generation brands, profiling over 100 businesses nominated by peers, across continents and sectors, who are changing the game. Ranging from detailed case studies to fascinating pen portraits in sectors as diverse as Health, Media, Technology and Retail, Peter Fisk defines how you can win by playing a different game.

The Lab is split into 5 sections, each with a collection of smart "tools" to help you apply and implement the concepts in your own business. These tools will be accompanied by a digital platform, the Gamechanger Studio, which provides a practical workbench of processes and tools to help you apply and implement the best game-changing ideas from around the world, and to shape your own market in your vision

This book is an essential guide and support to understanding of the science and policy, procedure and practice that underpins the REACH risk assessments required for the use and placing on the market of chemicals in the European Union. A clear understanding of information provision and how this affects the assessment of chemical safety is fundamentally important to the success of policy on chemicals and ultimately to the sustainability of the chemicals industry. Within the book, the scientific processes that underpin the policy are explained in a practical way. Importantly, it includes coverage of techniques to help solve the problems of using potentially risky and hazardous chemicals through the use of less hazardous alternatives and green chemistry , and also the analysis of the risks of the use of the most hazardous substances against the social and economic benefits of use. Chemical Risk Assessment: A Manual for REACH covers the following main themes: i) Assessment of chemical risk; ii) Risk management; iii) Hazard reduction, substitution and green chemistry; iv) Risk versus benefit socio-economic analysis. The book acts as a practical guide and overview to chemicals risk assessment and risk management (in the EU context), as well as a support text for planning for the challenges of the future, which will see ever-increasing pressure to withdraw hazardous substances from the EU (and global) market, balanced against opportunities for innovation in the development of less hazardous chemicals.
