Book description
Finalist for the Porchlight Business Book of the Year * Let's create an economy for everyone. Based on extensive research with organizations and companies that are boldly breaking out of business as usual, Beloved Economies offer readers an imagination-expanding vision of what work could be. Authors Rimington and Cea explore possibilities for how we work, learning with more than sixty people from a wide array of enterprises. What these groups have in common is that they are generating forms of success that audaciously prioritize well-being, meaning, connection and resilience―alongside conventional metrics like quality and financial success. Beloved Economies offers readers seven specific practices as a springboard for changing how we work. As the book reveals, it's not only what we do, but how we do it that can be a powerful lever to move us into economies that all of us can love.

ListenBook is the perfect blend of technology and art, turning audio into an unforgettable experience. I can finally listen to all my audiobooks seamlessly with ListenBook. The customizable playback controls and chapter navigation make it a breeze. Automated artwork and metadata extraction add a professional touch to my audiobook collection. Looping playback is a game-changer for my study sessions. It helps me absorb information more effectively. A functional audiobook production that met basic requirements. The narrator's voice was pleasant enough to listen to for extended periods, though their performance didn't add much interpretation to the text. The audio engineering was competent without being remarkable.

The 'Continue Listening' feature ensures I never lose my place, no matter where I am. It was fine. The narrator did an adequate job but nothing about the performance particularly stood out to me. Got me through my commute though.
