This textbook is an excellent deep dive into franchising and will bring knowledge and value to students, others wanting to learn about franchising, and those who are considering becoming a franchisor or franchisee." —Catherine Monson, President of Propelled Brands, Past President of the International Franchise Association "Ed Teixeira and Richard Chan’s book on franchising is a gateway to an expansive professional career. As a franchisee, franchisor, franchise company board member, professor teaching franchising and having written my dissertation on franchising, I say, hallelujah! Indeed, I believe franchising is the business genesis of economic networking. This book provides the underpinning of knowledge commensurate with a concentrated MBA. You will discover a wide spectrum of entrepreneurial opportunities in franchising." —Steve Stephen Spinelli Jr, PhD President, Babson College "This book is a must for prospective and current franchisees who want to understand all facets of the franchise business model. The authors convey their deep expertise in a highly readable way. They cover the gamut from understanding the key elements and value of the franchise model, including its evolution, to its continued promise for today and the future. Franchisees will refer to the book often as a guide to all the key elements of a franchise including intellectual property, financing, marketing, operations, and human resources." —Manuel London, Ph.D., Dean, College of Business, SUNY Distinguished Professor, State University of New York at Stony Brook "Owning and operating a franchise organization is more than having an operations manual for franchisees. But do all the demands of management have to be learned through trial and error? Not anymore. Teixeira and Chan put together Franchising Strategies so that those who see franchising as a career opportunity can get a jump start on what they will need to know. The authors rely on scientific research to provide advice on how to create and manage an enterprise that will enable franchisees to run their ventures successfully." —Francis Hoy, Ph.D., Professor of Innovation & Entrepreneurship, Worcester Polytechnic Institute "With more than 3,000 U.S. franchise brands, and 730,000 franchise locations supporting more than 8 million U.S. workers, franchising allows people from all walks of life to go into business for themselves, but not by themselves. However, awareness of the franchise business model by entrepreneurs, and how to successfully develop a franchiseable concept that ensures profitability for both franchise brands and franchise owners, requires a fulsome understanding of all aspects of the franchise business model, including the laws and regulations that govern the sales and disclosure process, as well as the ongoing operations of the business and relationship with franchisees. Anyone considering franchising their business would be well-served to take a deep dive into this book." —Matt Haller, President & CEO, International Franchise Association Table of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Neuroscience and Entrepreneurship Research
Book SynopsisThis book asserts the emergence of the fourth era of entrepreneurship, based on a brain-driven approach to the study, instruction, and practice of entrepreneurship. This paradigm shift stems from the need to incorporate appropriate neurotechnologies into the exploration and enhancement of entrepreneurial phenomena in order to best address the field's methodological challenges. The author explains why a paradigm shift is necessary in the field of entrepreneurship and provides the foundational guidelines for those interested in implementing it. Furthermore, a model of entrepreneurial enhancement is conceptualized and signalled as the ultimate goal of this new era. Scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and students interested in advancing entrepreneurship's contribution to academia, business, and society at large will benefit from this new era's multidisciplinary perspective and unique strengths.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Sustainable Innovation
Book SynopsisThe most important theme of the discourse on sustainable development and sustainability challenges concerns the relationship between innovation and sustainability. This book represents a realistic critical overview of the state of affairs of sustainable innovations, offering an accessible and comprehensive diagnostic point of reference for both the academic and practitioner worlds. In order for sustainable innovation to truly become mainstream practice in business it is necessary to find out how organizations can strategically and efficiently accommodate sustainability and innovation in such a manner that they accomplish value capturing (for firms, stakeholders, and for society), not merely creating a return on the social responsibility agenda. Addressing this challenge, the book draws together research from a range of perspectives in order to understand the potential shifts and barriers, benefits, and outcomes from all angles: inception, strategic process, and impact for companies and society. The book also delivers insights of (open) innovation in public sector organizations, which is not so much a process of invention as it is one of adoption and diffusion. It examines how the environmental pillar of the triple bottom line in private firms is often a by-product of thinking about the economic pillar, where cost reductions may be achieved through process innovation in terms of eliminating waste and reducing energy consumption. The impact of open innovation on process innovation, and sustainable process innovation in particular, is an underexplored area but is examined in this book. It also considers the role of the individual entrepreneur in bringing about sustainable innovation; entrepreneurs, their small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), as well as the innovation ecosystems they build play a significant role in generating sustainable innovations where these smaller organizations are much more flexible than large organizations in targeting societal needs and challenges. The readership will incorporate PhD students and postgraduate researchers, as well as practitioners from organizational advisory fields.Table of ContentsEDITORIAL 1.
