It is a question that matters to business leaders, and even to governments, as much as it does to accountants, as our cover story on Jack Ma’s dramatic fall from grace demonstrates. Once the global pin-up for China’s tech prowess, the Alibaba founder now appears to have been rejected by powerful state forces fearful that the nation’s digital giants may be getting too big for their boots. Lessons from the second largest global economy are also highlighted as Work. looks at how the rest of the world is managing the return to o­ce life on p28. How to cope with the unexpected is a perennial topic that has been thrust straight back to the top of the corporate agenda recently.

A Scandinavian One Day, Let's Hope for the Best is a beautifully written, intimate and emotionally brave debut novel about a young mother facing the sudden death of her partner. Description THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER. A Scandinavian One Day, Let's Hope for the Best is a beautifully written, intimate and emotionally brave debut novel about a young mother facing the sudden death of her partner. The last time I say goodnight to you I don't know it's the last time. One evening, thirty-six-year-old Carolina says goodnight to her partner, Aksel. There'll be time tomorrow time to work on their relationship, to calm their nine-month-old son, to embark on a new chapter as a family. But then Aksel dies unexpectedly in the night, and Carolina's world is turned upside down. Told in two narratives that work towards the moment of Aksel's death, Let's Hope for the Best recounts the intensity of falling in love. Carolina unpacks the small details of life before tragedy, determined to find some explanation for the bad hand she's been dealt. When an opportunity for new romance presents itself, she finds herself assuming the reticent role Aksel once held. She's been given the gift of love again. But will she take it? About the Author Carolina Setterwall was born in 1978 in Sala, Sweden. She studied Media and Communication in Uppsala, Stockholm and London and has worked within the music and publishing industries as an editor and writer.
