ICSB Sunday Times Editor’s note:
Pour yourself a double cortado and settle in. This edition asks whether managers, leaders, and entrepreneurs really think differently—and why today’s organizations need all three: manage today, lead people, and create tomorrow. We then ask you to imagine yourself as a minister looking beyond GDP and traditional measures of development to a more human question: are the people creating economic progress actually doing well while they do it? Finally, new research introduces the New Venture Panel Network (NVPN) and the challenge of understanding very young businesses that traditional data often miss. Together, these stories ask a bigger question: how do we better understand the people, thinking, and ventures behind economic progress? Curated by Dr. Ayman ElTarabishy
