This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION The idea of writing an overview of the challenges within the Montreal ethnic entrepreneur community was given by my former director to assess the need for new services and initiatives. Instead of making an inventory of specific needs from my day to day work experience with the Black entrepreneurs I created a general picture of the main realities within the ethnic community in the Cities of Western countries where we live as Diaspora. This analysis target essentially the ethnic entrepreneurs that recently immigrated, emphasis on the Black community, who have the challenge to integrate themselves as individuals or communities. Most of you are familiar with them, but at least we can now have a document that we can share so that everyone will be on the same page to start an action against these challenges and initiate CHANGE.

Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION This series of documents on the Ka concept serves as a guide for economic actors who have chosen to use the Ka Method to develop their business strategy. It gives tracks in the form of reflections and meditations to put in perspective the perception that one has of the approaches of management and the economic environments. The idea is that, failing to initiate the formulation of the informal economic theory from scratch, it is possible to adapt the state of knowledge in management to the informal philosophy characterized by the faith relation to Time and Providence within the entrepreneurial path. This entails the correction of the existing to make room for a quality alternative more in line with equity and sustainability conducive to African economic renewal and beyond the renewal of the Black World and its supporters.

Book Synopsis Ethnicity and Economy, a Calm Lifetime Endeavour by : Arnaud Segla
Download or read book Ethnicity and Economy, a Calm Lifetime Endeavour written by Arnaud Segla and published by The Wisemen Council. This book was released on 2024-05-23 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION The philosophy of Lean Intention serves as a basis for informal management, particularly in the decision-making process of what constitutes the Ka of a company, i.e., the whole integrating the dynamics of the vital forces of the members associated with the project or initiative being pursued. This is not a classic management book, still less a canonical one, in that it incorporates notions of spirituality based on the Ka Method and ECO Animism, which value so-called ethnocultural psychic phenomena in socio-economic quests: "Economy through Animism and Spirituality". The aim here is to summarize, for academic purposes, the work on ethnic entrepreneurship undertaken by Consultant Manager and Author Arnaud Segla as part of his professional and business activities in economic and international development, between Canada and Africa. Some excerpts have already been published, but are presented in a different context. Each term has its place and use. Composing a manual to support an academic training course requires specifying from the outset the key terms around which the entire academic content is deployed. Entrepreneurs are strategists who define and pursue one or more objectives through a project for development (exchanges for growth) or communion (sharing through finance) in various fields such as business, politics, religion, military force, culture, etc. The self-employed or liberal professions are economic players who monetize a technical, administrative, manual or intellectual skill according to fees indexed to scales of competence and specialization. Traders, whether in the formal liberal or informal economy, operate by buying and reselling products and services in order to make a profit according to the price trend of a local or international market on which they are positioned. Business people are individuals who identify market needs and provide solutions through innovation, invention, acquisition or adaptation of various resources, with the aim of meeting or exceeding the expectations of their target clientele. In today's world, these individuals have been wrongly and abusively assimilated to the term "entrepreneur", because of the new economic and social stakes involved in the classification or rivalry of the power of civilizations, also known as the world order. All these 4 profiles are, by default, project promoters, with varying degrees of strength or motivation in their initiation, modeling, animation, profitability and productivity. The power of civilizations has already had to be measured by divine knowledge, land holdings, military strength, the extent of trade, scientific knowledge and political power. Now we're entering an era of socio-economic power and bio-ecological preservation... In today's world, competition in a cross-cultural context can take on several dimensions: the social, ethnic, informal and digital economies. Informal industry is often considered the fourth or fifth economic sector (depending on whether information technology is considered before it), after agriculture and mining (primary sector), manufacturing (secondary sector) and services (tertiary sector). The debate is between the place of technology and informality. Thus, the 4 dimensions of an innovative and successful ethnic enterprise born of an adaptation or even improvement of the informal model implies the mastery and recurrent and repeated success of deals from business idea to market launch. This self-coaching or reference book for consultants involved in ethnic economic and community development projects provides practical advice and insights using the (ethnic) project strategy life cycle: Believe, Federate, Prosper, Share.
Book Synopsis Minority Entrepreneurship by : Timothy Bates
Download or read book Minority Entrepreneurship written by Timothy Bates and published by Now Publishers. This book was released on 2011-09 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minority Entrepreneurship reviews the economic and sociological literature on the topic of minority entrepreneurship. While economists and sociologists have written most of the influential studies, these groups typically ask different questions and base their analysis on different assumptions. The literature predictably lacks a single unifying focus and is quite diverse regarding issues explored and methodological approaches employed. Differing approaches and their outcomes are summarized and critically probed in this monograph with the intent to illuminate strengths and weaknesses -- along with patterns of common findings -- in this voluminous literature. Minority-owned businesses are collectively reflections of evolving constraints and opportunities operating in broader society. Minorities seeking to create viable business ventures have traditionally faced higher barriers than whites as they sought to exploit market opportunities, raise financing, and penetrate mainstream networks. Entrepreneurial dynamics are clarified by focusing upon specific contexts in which firms are being shaped by prevailing opportunity structures. Progress has been noteworthy overall for minority-owned businesses, in part because barriers impeding their collective development have been gradually declining. Minority Entrepreneurship shows that the dominant methodological approaches and findings of economists and sociologists in the minority entrepreneurship literature are highly complementary. Sociologists have posed bolder questions while economists have paid more attention to pinning down cause-and-effect relationships, yet their findings have been gradually moving towards convergence over the past two decades. This monograph posits that it is possible and desirable that these respective bodies of work may someday merge, creating a minority entrepreneurship scholarly synthesis.

This book was released on 2021-07-25 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION The very Essence of our economic and social approach is to contribute to the official global effort against poverty (and not Poor, Precarious and Profane) that could, in an alternative way, be encouraged by twinning between people from the South, their Diaspora and their supporters. We are a Strategic Organization Consulting Firm and a Community Economy Think Tank and we have 3 axes of intervention namely: Consortium Partnership with NGOs and Consulting Firms; Business, Project and Technical Writing Services for SMEs; and (Re)Structuring of Informal and Ethnic VSEs. Our target audience is Peer Homes of, Economic Actors (Commerce and Enterprise) and Community Leaders (Administration and Families), regardless of gender or age, who are deprived of equity in their civil rights. This is our terms of Preference: The Ethnic Diaspora becoming for the Informal People an Overseas Partner (OSP), the African economic regions developing between them privileged exchanges and limiting or severely regulating those with the other regions on the model of China during its recovery by ostracism.

This book was released on 2021-07-25 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION The Wisemen Council was created in 2009 in Montreal, QEC, in response to a need for a Project Management Consultant with cross-cutting skills. The positioning has progressively evolved in a cumulative way towards the accompaniment of ethnic entrepreneurs with the composition of the Political Economy Doctrine of the Ka Method in 2012 for the Diaspora in the West, then towards international development through the empowerment of informal entrepreneurs culminating in 2018 in a Schism of our Consulting Firm and Think Tank with the arbitrary policies of diverse capacity building and the application of a model of feminism contrary to the traditional and mystical local values (Matriarchy) in exchange for a privileged and pressing access to the resources of the Southern Countries. Bartering considered iniquitous in terms of training and cooperation, which we want to replace with Modes of Organization of Simple Entrepreneurial Life (MOVES) and Partnerships of Common Vision (PVC). In 2020, the civil rights of the economic actors and community leaders of our target populations (Perfora: Ritual Islamologue and Ancestrologue People; Diaspora: Virtual Allophone People; Fraternia: South America, Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia) are threatened by Stress (Panic Danger), Manipulation (Digital Debt) and Doubt (Genetic Data) with a new type of Great Anxiety on Health opening the way to the virtualization of the World Finance So we have chosen to launch ourselves with the weapons, souls and masks at our disposal to work towards the manifestation of our Vision of the Market Economy: "To make the Informal economy a Quality alternative to the Liberal System for the advent of the Economy in Religion and Ecology in Spirituality by putting Man back at the Heart with individual Philosophies around a Faith of Simplicity, all for the Socio-Economic Sovereignty of the Homes of the South, the West and their Sympathizers". It is to this end that we propose to accompany in Strategy (Competition), projects and initiatives for a better performance and adaptation to the Ecosystems within the framework of the new rise of the Black Civilization throughout the World. You are invited to join us in this challenge according to your interests because we scan a wide range of possibilities of Synergy (Competing) through products, services and routines. In God we trust.

Therefore, it will be of great benefit to researchers and scholars alike. . . I will strongly recommend this book to researchers, students, teachers and policy-makers. Aminu Mamman, International Journal of Entrepreneurial Behaviour and Research The volume presents an impressive panorama of studies on ethnic entrepreneurships ranging from Dalits in India to Roma entrepreneurs in Hungary. B.P. Corrie, Choice From a focus on middle-man minorities in the 1950s, the study of minority ethnic entrepreneurship has evolved into a vast undertaking. A major ingredient in this expansion is the massive population movements of the past thirty years that have created ethnic minority communities in almost all advanced economies. From New York to San Francisco, from Birmingham to Hamburg, from the Chinese in Canada, to the Turks in Finland, to the Ghanians in South Africa to the Lebanese in New Zealand, more than twenty chapters in this volume treat small-scale ethnic entrepreneurship and the cultural and institutional resources which support it. At the other end of the spectrum, the ethnic Chinese have created ever larger multi-divisional enterprises in the host societies of Southeast Asia. At the mid-point of the spectrum, analyzed in an elegant paper by Ivan Light, is the recently identified transmigrant entrepreneur accultured in two societies but assimilated in neither whose special endowments have provided the lynchpin for for much of the international trade expansion in the global economy over the past decade. And Dana and Morris provide us with much more Afro-American entrepreneurship, caste and class, the theory of clubs, women ethnic entrepreneurs, minority ethnicity and IPOs. In the quality of its contributions and in the reach of its coverage, this Handbook attains a very high standard. Peter Kilby, Wesleyan University, US The new Handbook of Research on Ethnic Minority Entrepreneurship, edited by Léo-Paul Dana, constitutes a major contribution to the literature on ethnic enterprise. Unlike previous work, which tended to focus on one country or one region of the world, this book is global in scope. You will find chapters on America, Europe, and Asia, as well as integrative essays that review important principles and concepts from the literature on ethnic entrepreneurship. I particularly appreciate the historical and evolutionary framework within which the contributions are situated. This book belongs on the shelf of everyone who has an interest in immigration and entrepreneurship or ethnic entrepreneurship more generally. Howard Aldrich, University of North Carolina, US This exhaustive, interdisciplinary Handbook explores the phenomena of immigration and ethnic minority entrepreneurship in light of marked changes since the mid-twentieth century and the advent of easier, more affordable travel and more open and integrated national economies. The international contributors, key experts in their respective fields, illustrate that myriad ethnic minorities exist across the globe, and that their entrepreneurship can and does significantly influence national economies. The contributors go on to promote our understanding of which factors make for successful entrepreneurship, and, perhaps more importantly, how negative political consequences that members of successful entrepreneurial ethnic minorities might face can be minimized. This extensive collection of current research on entrepr
Book Synopsis Entrepreneurship as a Route out of Poverty by : Tolu Olarewaju
Download or read book Entrepreneurship as a Route out of Poverty written by Tolu Olarewaju and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-27 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines how entrepreneurship can be used as a tool to escape poverty. With relevance for both SDG 1: ‘No Poverty,’ and SDG 8: ‘Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all,’ it pays special attention to women and minority ethnic groups. Offering a fresh perspective on entrepreneurship as a means of upward social mobility and rooted in research, the book explores the issue in three ways. Firstly, it pays special attention to the nexus between the entrepreneur, resources, institutions, opportunities, necessities, and the environment for drawing a comprehensive picture of how individuals could use entrepreneurship for successful upward social mobility in a changing world. Secondly, it emphasizes the peculiar challenges that female entrepreneurs face, how those challenges can be overcome, and how female entrepreneurship may be a route to women’s socio-economic advancement. Thirdly, it highlights the challenges faced by ethnic minority business owners and how such ethnic minority businesses could thrive amid institutional voids as well as direct and indirect forms of discrimination. Based on the latest research from developed and developing countries, the book offers compelling insights for sustaining entrepreneurial ventures in an evolving world.
Book Synopsis Ethnopolitical Entrepreneurs by : Daniel Fittante
Download or read book Ethnopolitical Entrepreneurs written by Daniel Fittante and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2023-12-15 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethnopolitical Entrepreneurs presents the story of the Armenians of Glendale, California. Coming from Argentina, Armenia, Egypt, Iran, Jordan, Lebanon, Russia, Syria, and many other countries, this group is internally fragmented and often has limited experience with the American political system. Nonetheless, Glendale's Armenians have rapidly mobilized and remade an American suburban space in their own likeness. In telling their story, Daniel Fittante expands our understanding of US political history. From the late nineteenth-century onward, Irish, Italian, Jewish, and several other immigrant populations in large American cities began changing the country's political reality. The author shows how Glendale's Armenians—as well as many other immigrants—are now changing the country's political reality within its dynamic, multiethnic suburbs. The processes look different in various suburban contexts, but the underlying narrative holds: immigrant populations converge on suburban areas and ambitious political actors develop careers by driving coethnics' political incorporation.
Book Synopsis International Entrepreneurship by : Susan Freeman
Download or read book International Entrepreneurship written by Susan Freeman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the importance of entrepreneurs in driving economic growth as the world economy grows and becomes more integrated and more challenging. It examines the situation in both advanced and developing countries and shows how the entrepreneurial orientation of the founders of small and medium sized enterprises has resulted in phenomenal growth, often fuelled by innovation and new technologies. It contrasts the experiences of Chinese family business in China and among the overseas Chinese with the experiences of family businesses in the United States and Europe. One important conclusion is that there has been a noticeable fall in entrepreneurial proclivity in the advanced economies, in contrast to the position in emerging economies.
