Crisis Management in Social Media and Digital Age : Can Toyota Succeed?
-- Dr. Jay Rajasekera
Authoritarian regimes can control social media; but public companies cannot do so.
They basically have to live with social media - either countering effectively, when a crisis
starts brewing or suffering the consequences when it grows out of proportions.
Recall-troubled Toyota is in such situation. Has it handled the social media strategically and can it protect
the reputation built over the decades as the top quality auto maker in the world?

The Psychology of Networking Behavior : What it Can Mean to You
-- Stephanie Jones
Everyone can network. There are hundreds of books and articles about how, when, why
and where networking activities can be carried out to mutual benefit. But the success of
your networking efforts can depend on whether or not you like networking, and if it's a
natural behavior for you or not. And the same applies to the person with whom you are
networking. This short guide to the psychology of networking might help you realize your own
strengths and weaknesses in this area - and how you might approach others in the process.

A Chinese Chimera? : Economic Miracle or Mirage and Labor
Market Challenges
-- Dr Chris Rowley
China's economy has powered ahead, growing by nearly 9% in 2009 and is now close
to becoming the second largest economy in the world, and with forecasts of further
similar growth in both 2010 and 2011. Simultaneously, there are reports of labor shortages,
both factory workers and skilled staff. Thus, is this performance an economic `miracle' or is it
a `mirage' hiding some real economic dangers? Are there any issues and challenges in
the seemingly `cast iron' labor market? These topics are discussed in this current piece.

Social Business : A Capitalist Amend for the Poor
-- Christian Duarte Varela
A light of hope arises for the poor as a capitalist amend to finally achieve equality
among people. Muhammad Yunus conceived `Social Business' in an attempt to eradicate
extreme poverty, first in Bangladesh, then worldwide. This idea was born out of the despair at
seeing people dying from famine and sicknesses in his country. Social business is based on trust
and confidence of the poor and their innovative spirit, creativity and their aspiration and will
to overcome poverty and despair. Is this the final and true answer of capitalism to solve
severe social problems once and for all?
