This book provides a set of integrated frameworks-capital, systems,
and objects-that transcend managerial or technology hype by
focusing on the long-term fundamentals that sustain organizational
success, and it contains cases from South East Asia to elaborate
this concept. Many organizations are currently addressing two
important transformational issues: ecological sustainability and
digitization. Sustainability is a goal, an end, and digitization is
a process, a means to achieve a goal. This book introduces a
flexible model that can be applied to current and future
organizational challenges, including sustainability and
digitization, because the fundamentals are constant. This book is
designed to serve two purposes for the readers: first, to present
three conceptual foundations for designing and operating
organizations (capital, systems, and objects (section 1)); and
second, to provide a reference source for implementing these ideas
in your organization (sections 2 and 3). The first section of the
book, chapters 1 through 7, sets forth the conceptual foundations.
The chapters mix concepts and practical examples to give a new way
of thinking about the setting in which one may work many days each
year. The second section provides details and associated examples
of every one of the thirty-six forms of capital conversion. It also
illustrates how the five foundational systems support capital
conversion in a variety of ways. Finally, the third section is
about measuring capital and systems. The book covers measurement of
all types of capital and systems performance and has been written
for current and future organizational leaders to change the game
and play it more effectively. The book will thus resonate with
students of organizational behaviour and leadership strategy,
organizational leaders, industry experts, and general readers.

second, to provide a reference source for implementing these ideas
in an organization (Parts II and III). The Part I of the book,
chapters 1 through 7, sets forth the conceptual foundations. The

experts, and general readers who want to understand how over
thousands of years the capital creation system has developed
today's world and will fashion its future.

The two great graces essential to a saint in this life, are faith
and repentance. These are the two wings by which he flies to
heaven. Faith and repentance preserve the spiritual life-as heat
and water preserve the physical life. The grace which I am going to
discuss is repentance. Thomas Watson was an English preacher and
author who obtained great fame preaching until the Restoration when
he was ejected as the vicar of St. Stephen's Walbrook for
noncomformity. Watson continued to exercise his ministry privately
and upon the Declaration of Indulgence in 1672 he obtained a
license to preach at the great hall in Crosby House.
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly
growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by
advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve
the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own:
digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works
in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these
high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts
are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries,
undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of
Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical
understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking.
Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel
Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and
moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade.
The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and
Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a
debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below
