Many proclaim the value of leaders. Many revere entrepreneurs, as if that’s all that’s needed. And yet someone – the manager – must embrace leadership and be entrepreneurial while building and running their firm to meet stakeholder expectations. The manager structures the firm and hires and organises the people. They develop necessary technology. They motivate, develop, and reward their people, while ensuring their wellbeing. And they drive change, ultimately securing their firm’s productivity and sustainability. This book details how management of the firm should be done. It builds practical models that managers can follow to get the very best out of their people. This third edition considers recent international events such as the COVID pandemic that have changed the very nature of work itself.

Should volunteers be managed - or is that anathema? Do volunteers seek reward - or would they then become employees? Two of many questions asked by those seeking to manage people who give their time and effort freely. Questions asked by those seeking to motivate volunteers and win their commitment. Two of many questions answered in this book. Achieving with Volunteers sets out the actions needed by managers in local, regional, national and international civil society organisations (CSOs) to achieve great things with volunteers. Importantly, it discusses the issues that managers of volunteers will inevitably encounter in striving for performance, productivity, and results. This book builds practical models that managers of volunteers can follow and adapt to get the very best from their people. This first edition is right up to date, considering both the modern-day slow decline of volunteer numbers and the growth of tech both threatening and enhancing jobs.

Brighton was a decayed seafaring town in 1740, but by 1780 it had been transformed into a prosperous seaside resort that attracted many famous people. When George, Prince of Wales made his first visit in 1783, Brighton was already a fashionable place to visit. By 1800, this resort was Britain's largest and most popular seaside watering place, remaining so well into the 20th century. Brighton emerged as a Georgian seaside resort during the key period of British resort development, between about 1730 and 1780.After 1780 Brighton had surpassed her competitors and had the full panoply of resort facilities. This charming book explores why resorts developed when they did - and why Brighton surged ahead. Between 1780 and 1820 the development of new suburbs to accommodate the influx of visitors was crucial. Without the ability to expand, Brighton would have failed to develop as a resort. From 1820, visitors' expectations changed, and the heyday of Georgian seaside resorts was at an end. This engaging narrative will interest Brighton's residents and visitors alike, and the splendidly reproduced images will evoke an era gone by for local historians everywhere.
