| financial plans generally tend to ignore: Disaster Preparedness Association of Research Libraries, 1993 Most librarians know the importance of disaster preparedness. Many disasters could have been prevented altogether or have had reduced impact if institutions had been better prepared. This resource guide suggests how disaster preparedness can be achieved at cultural institutions. Twenty-three basic resource articles are presented to introduce disaster preparedness. They deal with the safety of collections rather than the safety of staff, and related issues such as security and environmental control are not addressed. Of the materials that cover what to do once a disaster has occurred, most emphasize water damage because so many causes of disaster result in water damage. The resource guide is supplemented by a list of 23 selected readings. When a choice had to be made between a readily available source and one that was difficult to obtain, the hard-to-obtain one was included in the resource guide, and a reference to the other was provided in the bibliography. The basic processes for disaster preparedness include: (1) brainstorming potential disasters; (2) investigating responses to past disasters; (3) outlining a disaster plan; (4) determining remaining needs; and (5) developing recommendations.

| financial plans generally tend to ignore: Public No More Andrew J. Policano, Gary C. Fethke, 2012-05-23 Public No More examines the quickly changing environment within higher education, including the permanent decline in state support for public universities. This book raises the question of how research universities can survive with reduced subsidies and increased competition from both non-profit and growing for-profit institutions. Authors Gary C. Fethke and Andrew J. Policano, both longtime university administrators, offer a strategic framework for determining how tuition and access should be set and how universities should decide on quality and program scope. Throughout the text, real-world examples illustrate successful and unsuccessful adoptions of the authors' proposals. Leadership within public higher education, policymakers, and researchers alike will find Public No More to be a sober and well-grounded guide to what lies ahead for universities across the nation. |

| financial plans generally tend to ignore: The Wealth Divide Noël Merino, 2015-01-14 Many economists argue that the Great Recession and the Occupy movement are just two symptoms of a deep issue in the United States: wealth is concentrated in fewer and fewer hands. Are these economists right? Should wealth be distributed equally? Should it be distributed at all? Why do patterns of wealth seem to fall along racial and ethnic lines? Is taxation of the rich to help the poor ethical? Experts analyze these issues and more from diverse perspectives, offering nuanced interpretations of the problems and novel solutions. Writers include Jonathan Rauch, Robert A. Levy, and Thomas Sowell. |

| financial plans generally tend to ignore: Your Financial Coach Darren Baker, 2014-08-28 There’s nothing quite like the life of the sports professional. Waking up every morning and earning your living from doing something you are passionate about is a rare and privileged position to be in. But it can be a precarious existence – a bit like walking a tightrope. Just one bad injury away from the final whistle; or one good performance away from the headlines. Many elite athletes do find themselves having to retire early - usually as a result of injury. And it is at that low point they are deposited back into the “real world”; sometimes without the qualifications or experience required to compete for skilled jobs. Importantly, even if you are lucky enough to have a long and successful career, you are still likely to retire at a relatively early age – what then? My reason for writing this book is to provide busy professionals – men and women with perhaps very little time, or interest, in doing anything other than their chosen vocation – with a succinct guide to the important issues that they really must get to grips with. The core of the book deals with Financial Management – how to go about organising and managing your monetary affairs. Because whatever you might think about the effectiveness or morality of our capitalist society, money is one of the most important subjects in our lives. I also consider other common challenges that many sports people face during their careers - and offer a summary of the counsel I’ve collated from professionals, past and present and others involved in the sporting world. Whatever stage you might be at in your professional career, my hope is that by highlighting these issues and providing some practical tips and advice, I can minimise anxiety, cut down on prevarication and spur you into taking some positive action. |

Offering a unique perspective from having worked as a practitioner in global development for several years, then left the practice to ponder the deep ethical issues that shadow global development, Anna Malavisi argues that one of the problems in global development today is the absence of an ethical analysis; ethics in development today is overshadowed by economic and political interests, as well as national self-interest. The book describes how Chagas diseases, as a Neglected Tropical Disease, continues to plague vulnerable populations in poorer countries such as Bolivia due to a very limited way in how it has been conceived, understood, and addressed. Malavisi offers a strong ethical approach, comprising a feminist methodology, a social ethical praxis, political responsibility, epistemic justice, and deep-green theory. A strong ethical approach is necessary to address Chagas Disease as well as other development problems in a more effective way. |

| financial plans generally tend to ignore: Living Simply, Living Rich Robert Lee, Living Simply, Living Rich offers a unique perspective on the concept of simple living. While most discussions on the topic take the position that simple living requires adherence to the idea that we must “do without” and embrace absolute minimalism, Bob Lee insists that simple living is no more the right path than capitalism or materialism. “Crash diets, whether in nutrition or lifestyles, have no chance of permanent success,” he states. Instead, this book shows how a more focused lifestyle offers fulfillment, a responsible way of living and a more realistic approach to sustained changes in the way we interact with the world around us. Living Simply, Living Rich works, whether you are poor or rich, middle-income or no income. It is an approach to living that remembers that the whole approach is just that: about living. Experiences replace acquisitions, relationships replace career success. This book may be life changing, but it is not a lifestyle manual. It is a pathway to choosing your unique road. Robert Frost was right. Choosing the least travelled path will make all the difference. |

| financial plans generally tend to ignore: MAKING STRATEGIC PLANS WORK Chiku Malunga, 2009-01-01 Making Strategic Plans Work introduces an innovative and creative approach to understanding the theory and practice of strategic planning. Based on proverbs and folktales, the book provides detailed analyses of the stages of the strategic planning process - preparation, formulation, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. It also discusses the roles and responsibilities of the key players in the process - boards, management, donors, consultants and communities and how to build their capacity for more effectiveness. It equally provides at each stage templates for assessing the effectiveness of the strategic planning process as well as the key players. The book is unique in that it uses the wisdom contained in African proverbs and folktales to discuss the stages of the strategic planning process, and roles and responsibilities of players in the process. Being metaphors, proverbs and folktales often bring out more lucidly the meanings embodied in the normally arcane language of strategic planning. Proverbs and folktales also create strong mental pictures, which are often very effective in impressing ideas upon people's minds, communicating them at a deeper level, and motivating them to action. The book is based on research, tested use of the proverbs and folktales in strategic planning practice in different contexts in combination with the author's experience as a professional organization development (OD) consultant. It will be especially useful to students, teachers, executives, board members and all players in international development, community development, organizational development, international businesses and African Studies. Volunteers and expatriates working Africa and other developing regions will equally find the book useful as it provides insight into the culture and mode of thinking of the people they work with. |

Hines, 2000-10-30 With numerous cogent examples from real estate markets worldwide, Dr. Hines makes it clear that investing in foreign real estate is by no means the same as investing domestically. She shows how, why, and when special strategies must be devised to enter the world market; conveys essential information on global investment opportunities; outlines career opportunities and advancement strategies in international investment; and provides insights into international business in the context of global real estate investing. Her focus on industrial, commercial, and residential real estate reflects both the major investment interests of world-class investment professionals and the diversity of real estate market conditions. Her book is thus an essential resource for professional real estate investors, teachers, and their graduate-level students. Dr. Hines focuses on the general investment strategies that successful and profitable international real estate investors have devised over many years and now follow assiduously. Readers gain knowledge of direct investment in industrial, commercial, and residential real estate and through the purchase of securities, such as real estate investment trusts and mortgage backed issues. After discussing basic international real estate differences and general acquisition strategies, the book moves to functional strategies, such as valuation, land development, construction, financing, and tax strategies. Dr. Hines concludes with a coverage of housing and shopping centers, office buildings, and industrial property investment—all of which allow readers to observe the differences among functional areas and then tie them to the differences among investments in various types of properties. Her book covers Western, Eastern, and Central Europe; East, Southeast Central, and South Asia; Africa in general, and Morocco in Northwest Africa in particular; plus the Middle East and North and South America. |
