American Indian business is booming. The number of American Indian– and Alaska Native–owned businesses increased by 15.3 percent from 2007 to 2012—a time when the total number of US businesses increased by just 2 percent—and receipts grew from $34.4 million in 2002 to $8.8 billion in 2012. Despite this impressive growth, there is an absence of small businesses on reservations, and Native Americans own private businesses at the lowest rate per capita for any ethnic or racial group in the United States. Many Indigenous entrepreneurs face unique cultural and practical challenges in starting, locating, and operating a business, from a perceived lack of a culture of entrepreneurship and a suspicion of capitalism to the difficulty of borrowing start-up funds when real estate is held in trust and cannot be used as collateral.
This book provides an accessible introduction to American Indian businesses, business practices, and business education. Its chapters cover the history of American Indian business from early trading posts to today’s casino boom; economic sustainability, self-determination, and sovereignty; organization and management; marketing; leadership; human resource management; tribal finance; business strategy and positioning; American Indian business law; tribal gaming operations; the importance of economic development and the challenges of economic leakage; entrepreneurship; technology and data management; business ethics; service management; taxation; accounting; and health-care management.
American Indian Business also furthers the inclusion of Indigenous perspectives in the study of American business practices in general and demonstrates the significant impact that American Indians have had on business, as well as their cultural contributions to management, leadership, marketing, economic development, and entrepreneurship.

Описание: From an early age Alice (Haggerty) Kennedy exhibited unbridled energy and extensive business acumen. However, on her wedding day in 1968, she re-aligned her lifetime aspirations and devoted her entire life to motherhood. Like all mothers, she treasured the opportunity to care for her children through good times and trying times, but at all times she brought great joy to the lives of her five children. Later in life, she was delighted to return to the world of business, an endeavor that brought her much joy but one that was curtailed with a long-term and challenging battle with dementia. As Alice's health gradually ebbed away, her children returned the love she had poured out to them. In her final days, long after her speech appeared to have eroded, Alice's love miraculously manifested itself to the surprise of her family on a cold autumn day.
