If the story of the first 20 years of e-commerce's growth was set in developed markets, the story of the next 20 years will be set in emerging ones. The rise of e-commerce in emerging markets is being driven by three major trends: widespread Internet adoption, a rising middle class, and, most importantly, innovative new business models that serve the needs of local customers better than the models used by Western e-commerce giants. Six Billion Shoppers takes listeners on an exciting and colorful journey around the world to visit the next e-commerce mega markets and explore how a new e-commerce boom is opening opportunities for entrepreneurs and global brands alike. Traveling through Nigeria, China, India, Southeast Asia, and Latin America, Porter Erisman addresses e-commerce across these new markets and what it means for Western brands. He argues that e-commerce in developing countries is revolutionary and will play a much larger role in emerging markets than in the West. With e-commerce in emerging markets entering a rapid period of expansion, Six Billion Shoppers explains how to seize the massive opportunity created by emerging market consumers and provides practical advice on how to ride this new business trend. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Porter Erisman) Thu, 28 Sep 2017 11:40:17 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Six-Billion-Shoppers-Audiobook/B074VGRKPF thebookvoice.com 07:34:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Is your company prepared for the Gen D future, or is it heading toward life support? A lot of companies across the globe are going to die over the next few years not because of macroeconomic stress but because there is an emerging generation that is radically changing the rules of customer engagement. In Build for Change, Pegasystems CEO Alan Trefler shows exactly what companies can do to turn the coming "customerpocalypse" into one of the biggest business opportunities of the decade. The newest generation of consumers is turning customer-relationship management on its head. Build for Change highlights the revolutionary changes to business, marketing, and technology practices that are needed to survive and thrive in these unforgiving times. Listeners will learn how businesses are increasingly relying on new forms of customer engagement and how one customer's experience--whether good or bad--can alter a company's reputation with the click of a mouse. With practical insight from a leader in customer engagement, this book serves as a timely wakeup call to companies that have not yet embraced the digital future. Traditional marketing is becoming increasingly irrelevant, and businesses must become more customer-centric while taking a completely different approach to adopting and using technology.

Businesses must respond with agility and intelligence, transforming themselves into an adaptive entity that can correctly understand and meet the chanfing expectations of the customer. The book is well considered and thoughtfully presented. How and why a focus on high tech and high touch will actively engage customers and fully respond to their expectations The title of my review correctly indicates Alan Tefler's purposes in this book: to provide the information, insights, and counsel that leaders of organizations need to "revolutionize customer engagement through continuous digital innovation." It should be added that most of the material (if not all of it) is relevant to the needs, interests, resources, and strategic objectives of almost any organization, whatever its size and nature may be. For decades, parents and other adults have told children to "mind their Ps and Qs." In this book, Trefler tells his readers to "mind their Cs and Ds." That is, cultivate consumers who comprise the C and D generations. The "C" refers to CONTENT. "Despite its relative youth, this group influences every aspect of our lives and wreaks havoc on many businesses. Gen C accounts for about 75 million people in the United States alone. Still growing in size by leaps and bounds, largely now from the emergence of new economies in much of the less-developed world and changing economies in places such as Russia, China, and India, Gen C is fast becoming the largest group of consumers in the world." With regard to "D," it refers to DISCOVER, DEVOUR, and DEMONIZE. "Gen D does not want to be sold to. Being sold to is like being controlled. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/The-CEO-Difference-Audiobook/B00JDSSGOC Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Ice Cream Social Subtitle: The Struggle for the Soul of Ben & Jerry's Author: Brad Edmondson, Annie Leonard (foreword), Jeff Furman (epilogue) Narrator: Brad Edmondson Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 22 mins Language: English Release date: 03-03-14 Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 13 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Ben & Jerry's has always been committed to an insanely ambitious three-part mission: Making the world's best ice cream, supporting progressive causes, and sharing the company's success with all stakeholders: employees, suppliers, distributors, customers, cows, everybody. But it hasn't been easy. This is the first book to tell the full, inside story of the inspiring rise, tragic mistakes, devastating fall, determined recovery, and ongoing renewal of one of the most iconic mission-driven companies in the world. No previous book has focused so intently on the challenges presented by staying true to that mission. No other book has explained how the company came to be sold to corporate giant Unilever or how that relationship evolved to allow Ben & Jerry's to pursue its mission on a much larger stage. Journalist Brad Edmondson tells the story with an eye for details, dramatic moments, and memorable characters. He interviewed dozens of key figures, particularly Jeff Furman, who helped Ben and Jerry write their first business plan in 1978 and became chairman of the board in 2010. It's a funny, sad, surprising, and ultimately hopeful story. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Brad Edmondson) Mon, 03 Mar 2014 22:15:53 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Ice-Cream-Social-Audiobook/B00IP2053W thebookvoice.com 08:22:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

This is the first book to tell the full, inside story of the inspiring rise, tragic mistakes, devastating fall, determined recovery, and ongoing renewal of one of the most iconic mission-driven companies in the world. No previous book has focused so intently on the challenges presented by staying true to that mission. No other book has explained how the company came to be sold to corporate giant Unilever or how that relationship evolved to allow Ben & Jerry's to pursue its mission on a much larger stage. Journalist Brad Edmondson tells the story with an eye for details, dramatic moments, and memorable characters. He interviewed dozens of key figures, particularly Jeff Furman, who helped Ben and Jerry write their first business plan in 1978 and became chairman of the board in 2010. It's a funny, sad, surprising, and ultimately hopeful story. Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: The Strategist Subtitle: Be the Leader Your Business Needs Author: Cynthia Montgomery Narrator: Karen White Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 04-26-12 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 9 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Strategy and leadership have become separated in the business world. Legendary Harvard Business School professor Cynthia Montgomery reveals why and how they need to be reintegrated for ultimate business success. Cynthia Montgomery teaches the globally renowned EOP (Entrepreneur, Owner, President) course at Harvard Business School, one of Harvard's most oversubscribed executive courses. Participants are all seasoned executives, owners, CEOs, or COOs of privately held companies who pay tens of thousands of dollars to attend, with the goal of learning how to be more effective leaders and how to make their companies more successful. Montgomery's course teaches them a totally new way to understand leadership, a way that fuses leadership with strategy. Her approach calls for a reset of current thinking about both. She shows that strategy is not just a tool for outwitting the competition - it is the most powerful means a leader has for shaping a firm itself. Montgomery takes the listener through the paces of her world-renowned course, teaching them how to develop the skills and sensibilities that living strategy and real leadership demand. No other book marries strategy and leadership in the same way - a way listeners will find challenging, intriguing, and ultimately inspiring. Critic Reviews: "In this refreshing book, Montgomery brings out the Strategist in each of us. Wherever you are in the world, as a student, teacher or practitioner of strategy, you will find this book a joyful companion as you reinvent yourself and the world around you." (Ashok Vasudevan, founder and CEO of Tasty Bite) "Cynthia Montgomery stimulates you as a business leader, to be owner, creator, and ongoing steward of your company's strategy. She uses her vast experiences in executive education to create engaging and stimulating exampling of successful strategies; both in purpose and execution. I thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend this book."

Members Reviews: The book is better than the robot reading it It sound so like a robot and therefore is easy to lose because it miss to engage in the narrative, but after all the book is great. Great book, however too many non relevant examples The book and message is great. I wish it would have less examples on the same company and wish a variation of industries would be covered. However overall a great book with many take aways. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Keeping-the-Millennials-Audiobook/B002V8ML3I Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Keeping the Millennials Subtitle: Why Companies Lose Billions in Turnover to This Generation - and What to Do About It Author: Joanne Sujansky Narrator: Robin Miles Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 12 mins Language: English Release date: 09-09-09 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 11 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Many companies are able to recruit Millennial workers effectively, but they end up alienating and losing them shortly thereafter. Despite their good qualities, the Millennials don't always share the traditional values of Boomers, with whom they often come into conflict. Disenchanted, many Millennials give up and look for opportunities outside the corporate world. This high turnover rate among the young - who must be recruited, trained, and then replaced - is costing companies billions of dollars every year. If your company is struggling to hang on to young workers, Keeping the Millennials offers sage advice and smart strategies for building a workplace that welcomes employees of every generation. It explains how to lower turnover rates and the high costs that accompany them and suggests effective policies for attracting and retaining young workers. You'll learn where and how to find energetic twentysomethings; the big mistakes that could brand your company as a bad place for young professionals; the most common complaints the generations direct at each other; and the top ten things you can do to make your company a place where young people want to stay and build a career. Today, you can't afford to let generational differences stand in the way of getting things done. Nor can you afford to alienate one generation by favoring another. Happy employees - of every generation - lead to happy customers. Critic Reviews: "This is a great book and a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the young people who are now or will soon join the workforce. It's one of the most useful value-added books about the Millennial generation."

(Warren Bennis, Distinguished Professor of Management, University of Southern California) Members Reviews: A wonderful performance of mediocre material Robin Miles delivers a great performance, matter-of-fact with just enough emotion to keep me interested. It's a shame the book itself is so shoddy. Sometimes contradicting itself, sometimes flat-out wrong (the Space Shuttle Enterprise launched in 1983?), this book reads like it was frankensteined together from parts of other Millennial management books to cash in on a trend. Keeping the Millennials manages to be simultaneously patronizing to Boomers and Millennials alike, glossing over legitimate concerns about organizational values and career paths, and focussing on trite incentives like freshly-baked cookies. Early in the book, it claims the Millennials were the first generation to "grow up with technology", but later spends way too much time lauding the Boomers for growing up with TV, Sputnik, and the moon landings, and for creating the personal computer. There are much better guides out there for managing young employees. Don't waste your money on this one. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Managing-Change-Audiobook/B0036I8YPG Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Avis des membres: Qualité audio épouvantable Le codec audio est de mauvaise qualité, coupant des morceaux de mots et sautant même des parties de phrases. Excellents conseils pour les nouveaux en affaires Je suis un nouvel entrepreneur et j'y ai trouvé une tonne de conseils très utiles et je me reconnais un peu dans l'historique de M. Lambert. Ne vous arrêtez pas au fait que M. Lambert lit: Ca manque un peu de naturel, mais ce n'est pas evident puisque le livre n'a probablement pas été écrit pour une natation. Si ça vous derange, achetez le livre et lisez vous-même, ca en vaut la peine. J'ai aimé que ce soit séparé en plusieurs chapitres concis qui rend la "digestion" facile. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Coaching-a-Winning-Team-Audiobook/B002V5IZQI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

This major work brings together his stimulating and enlightening views on the new world order for business and on management imperatives. He brings clear-sighted analysis and practical inspiration to an interesting array of subjects: the end of the era of the blue-collar worker; the ultimate bankruptcy of economic pump priming by the federal government; the lessons that nonprofit enterprises can teach big business; the changing attitudes of middle managers as the doctrine of company loyalty gives way to the demand for rewarding achievement; and many more. Members Reviews: Three Stars More dated than I expected. Good deal on used book Shipped very fast, exactly as pictured/promised. A+. Bought all these books for a friend for Christmas and they were in good to fine condition and he was happy with them Peter F. Drucker: Managing for the Future 1992 - re-visited in 2015 Peter Drucker starts his Preface to this book with a reference to his book âThe Frontiers of Managementâ published in 1985. You should be aware that âThe Frontiers of Managementâ was published several times, e.g. in 1997 with new comments to all four parts. âManaging for the Futureâ, first printing in 1992, consists of 39 chapters written between August 1986; [Drucker original quotes follow] âin the same week I wrote the first draft of what was published â in early winter of 1989 â as Chapter 4 in my book The New Realities under the title âWhen the Russian Empire is Goneâ â in which I predicted the inevitable failure of Mr. Gorbachevâs economic policies, the equally inevitable collapse of communism, and the disintegration of the Soviet Unionâ; and August 1991 âin the week after the Communist hardlinersâ putsch against Mr. Gorbachev had failed.â Today, we all know, that the Soviet Union was declared as dissolved on December 8, 1991. Russia, Ukraine and Belarus established the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) in its place. Today CIS has nine full member states â Ukraine is no member state anymore. With a view on Peter Druckerâs lessons for the future I want to select some topics with original Peter Drucker quotes. Where appropriate I will add my comments marked MC. Chapter 1 The Futures Already Around Us â Finally, corporate size will by the end of the coming decade have become a strategic decision. Neither âbig is betterâ nor âsmall is beautifulâ makes much sense. Neither elephant nor mouse nor butterfly is, in itself, âbetterâ or âmore beautiful.â Size follows function, as a great Scots biologist, DâArcy Wentworth Thompson, showed in his 1917 classic On Growth and Form. â Management will increasingly have to decide on the right size for a business, the size that fits its technology, its strategy and its markets. This is both a difficult and risky decision â and the right answer is rarely the size that best fits a managementâs ego. MC: Robin Chase published PEERS INC in 2015 with the subtitle How People and Platforms are Inventing the Collaborative Economy and Reinventing Capitalism. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Project-Manager-Technology-Suite-Audiobook/B01M1RVMYY Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Steve runs one of the most successful startup programs in San Francisco and through this book shares what he has learned during his many years of coaching startups. This book examines how startups implement winning ideas. The book covers the main issue facing startup innovation including team building, but is not just for startups. The book makes a great point that everyone will have to innovate in the future and the lessons learned from startups will be useful to all companies. Excellent read for anyone wish a passion for innovation If you only plan to read one business book in 2018, read Make Elephants Fly - it's an excellent summary of pragmatic ways to instill a culture of productive innovation in any business. If you plan to read multiple business books in 2018, (also) begin by reading Make Elephant Fly - it's an excellent way to identify which topics to read about more deeply, in order to increase the probability of making your innovation successful. This book is ideal for everyone, from entrepreneurs to multi-national enterprises. Fly Faster and Farther Steve Hoffmanâs Make Elephants Fly offers invaluable insights for analysts, trend trackers, and entrepreneurs alike. He dispels the myth of inventing something yourself (donât do it). Instead, he celebrates the power of borrowing from existing products, and tapping into the proof of customer demand. Hoffman knows the value of finding (or building) an ecosystem to drive diversity, free thinking and optimism, not to mention the power of the regenerating talent pool that found in Silicon Valley and other hubs. Think small says Hoffman. âPick one customer that highly values your solution and focus on that.â Then: foster small teams with a combination of key roles (hustler, hacker, hipster, hotshot). Innovate in sprints, with short deadlines. Hoffmanâs international work as a consultant is evident here. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Jake-Breeden-on-Tipping-Sacred-Cows-Audiobook/B00RDDUOOE Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Lots of neat facts and information not in my other John Deere books Small Useful Book A good little book about John Deere. Anyone who wants to work for or do business with this company need to review this book. A Deere Corporate Bio This sincerely earnest book is a good example of why corporate biography remains, perhaps, the most problematic business-book genre. While the book is well researched, author David Magee apparently found it hard to avoid the trap of laudatory language about current management. To write a book like this, you need corporate help and access. Most employees won't even talk to an author without a go-ahead from the top. This means that, even without Deere & Company's roots date to 1836, when a blacksmith named John Deere moved from Vermont to the frontier settlement of Grand Detour, Illinois. Deere set up a shop that could provide stout hayforks, horseshoes and wagon parts. He talked with farmers, who complained that it was very difficult to plow the dense Midwestern turf. Plows made in the Northeast didn't work in the rich heavy soil. In 1837, Deere decided to devise a plow that would scrape off the topsoil, turn it over and let it glide off the plow. Even without an explicit quid pro quo, corporate biographies tend to become trapped in a sort of literary Stockholm syndrome, dependent on their sources for their own survival. That cautionary flag raised, this book provides a worthwhile portrait of one of America's stalwart agricultural companies. Deere & Company's values are as plain and honest as the face of a farmer atop his Deere tractor. Although the book would have been more engrossing if it offered pictures and sharper anecdotes, particularly from times when things didn't go well, we recommend it to those interested in agriculture, corporate histories or values-driven management. Learning Why a Legendary Company is Legendary I'll admit it, I grew up on and around John Deere equipment. As an adult I have become a collector of antique tractors and become a student of this truly historic and great American company. John Deere is also a Client of ours. So when I received this book as a birthday gift it was a slam dunk - it went near the top of my reading stack. Given all of that, this review doesn't come from my obviously biased point of view - this is a book worth reading. The book does tell parts of the history of this company, but it isn't a book about products or history. Written by experienced business author David Magee, it is an exploration of the key factors that have led to John Deere to growing and thriving over the last 150+ years. The chapter titles tip off the business practices and attitudes that have guided the company and serve as the thesis for the book. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/A-Macat-Analysis-of-John-P-Kotters-Leading-Change-Audiobook/B01GS1AKDQ Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Kotter's Leading Change Author: Yaamina Salman, Nick Broten Narrator: Macat.com Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 31 mins Language: English Release date: 06-09-16 Publisher: Macat International Limited. Ratings: 2 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Publisher's Weekly called John Kotter's 1996 book Leading Change "a truly accessible, clear and visionary guide" to corporate transformation. A professor at Harvard Business School, Kotter spent years coaching organizations - large and small; successful, less successful, and nearly bankrupt - through their own change processes. Some worked; others didn't. Distilling wisdom from these experiences, Kotter identifies eight common mistakes managers make implementing change. He then uses them to propose an eight-stage model that he argues can lead to successful organizational transformation. Leadership is crucial to change. In Kotter's view, unsuccessful transformations usually result from poor management decisions. Management General named Leading Change the management book of the year in 1996. Nearly 20 years later, would-be change-makers still rely on Kotter's highly listenable, jargon-free combination of visionary guide and practical toolkit. An international best-seller, it remains a "must listen" for anyone who wants to move from thinking about change, to actually making it happen. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Yaamina Salman) Thu, 09 Jun 2016 06:01:35 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/A-Macat-Analysis-of-John-P-Kotters-Leading-Change-Audiobook/B01GS1AKDQ thebookvoice.com 01:31:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

In Kotter's view, unsuccessful transformations usually result from poor management decisions. Management General named Leading Change the management book of the year in 1996. Nearly 20 years later, would-be change-makers still rely on Kotter's highly listenable, jargon-free combination of visionary guide and practical toolkit. An international best-seller, it remains a "must listen" for anyone who wants to move from thinking about change, to actually making it happen.

Ratings: 2 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Publisher's Weekly called John Kotter's 1996 book Leading Change "a truly accessible, clear and visionary guide" to corporate transformation. A professor at Harvard Business School, Kotter spent years coaching organizations - large and small; successful, less successful, and nearly bankrupt - through their own change processes. Some worked; others didn't. Distilling wisdom from these experiences, Kotter identifies eight common mistakes managers make implementing change.

As a result, Sir Terry is now one of the world's most admired business leaders, widely acclaimed for his drive, flair, and no-nonsense approach. In Management in 10 Words, he draws on his experience and expertise to pinpoint the ten vital attributes that make successful managers and underpin great organisations. He tackles the challenges that every manager faces in a series of insights that are personal, provocative, and down to earth. Additionally, he explains: The result is an inspiring, thoughtful, and supremely practical guide that will prove invaluable to all managers in all types of organisations. Critic Reviews: The most inspiring autobiography you will read this year (Daily Mail) Should be required reading for anyone running a business, or indeed any organisation (Chris Blackhurst Evening Standard) An insight into Sir Terrys influences, his management style, the techniques he used to deliver results and his recollections on the genesis of some of his numerous achievements Management in 10 Words is a revelation (The Grocer) Enlightening (Independent) This is the authentic voice of the man the nearest any outsider is likely to get to understanding what motivated one of Britains most successful businesspeople (Financial Times) Ones heart usually sinks at management books by famous managers. They tend to be boastful, un-illuminating and loaded with jargon and cliché. Leahy is conscious of these traps, and rarely falls into them. His prose is as simple as his precepts, and although he is clearly proud of what he has achieved, this really is a book about what a great business should be, rather than about what a great man its author is. (Charles Moore, Daily Telegraph) A veritable management page turner that has interesting things to say about everything from the evolution of British society to the art of transforming huge organisations.

(The Economist) Members Reviews: Far better than expected Wow, what common sense and wise advice without arrogance. Each chapter has a clear message & is transferable to a range of businesses. A good holiday or car journey listen though possibly better studied in print. Procurement, especially of IT, is never easy - this book needs to be read by Civil Servants & politicians before the country makes more expensive mistakes ...BDUK? Excellent management insights This book is like a leadership and management course in 8 hours, as well as being extremely interesting and inspiring. Terry Leahy puts across his personal experiences of leading a large company with tips that will help anyone whose work involves leading others, in any organisation, large or small, in the private or public sector. My one gripe about this book is the narration. Very often the narrator puts emphasis on the wrong words in a sentence, causing the meaning of the sentence to be difficult to understand. Worse, when the book includes a quote, the narrator will attempt a poor imitation of the accent of the original speaker. This happens often, from the inaccurate American twang of Henry Ford to an excruciating attempt at the Czech voice of Václav Havel. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Predictable-Results-in-Unpredictable-Times-Audiobook/B002UZN4UG Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

This audiobook is packed with relevant, well structured and easily applicable practical inspiration on how to utilize the current economic downturn on the expense of the less ambitious competitors. The prescription within the audiobook is as simple as it is powerfull: 1. Execute priorities with excellence, 2. Move with the speed of trust, 3. Achieving more with less, and 4. Transforming fear into engagement. As the economy is gradually beginning to recover the publishing of this little helpful book is no less than perfect timing. Therefore it is a must-listen in 2010 for all ambitious businesspeople - from the youngest MBA students to the most senior Fortune500 CEOs! https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Get-Rid-of-the-Performance-Review-Audiobook/B003DN26KI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Get Rid of the Performance Review! Subtitle: How Companies Can Stop Intimidating, Start Managing - and Focus on What Really Matters Author: Samuel A. Culbert, Lawrence Rout (contributor) Narrator: Samuel A. Culbert Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 44 mins Language: English Release date: 04-14-10 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 22 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: The performance review. It is one of the most insidious, most damaging, and yet most ubiquitous of corporate activities. We all hate it. And yet nobody does anything about it. Until now... Straight-talking Sam Culbert, management guru and UCLA professor, minces no words as he puts managers on notice that -- with the performance review as their weapon of choice -- they have built a corporate culture based on intimidation and fear. Teaming up with Wall Street Journal Senior Editor Lawrence Rout, he shows us why performance reviews are bogus and how they undermine both creativity and productivity. And he puts a good deal of the blame squarely on human resources professionals, who perpetuate the very practice that they should be trying to eliminate. But Culbert does more than merely tear down. He also offers a substitute -- the performance preview -- that will actually accomplish the tasks that performance reviews were supposed to, but never will: holding people accountable for their actions and their results, and giving managers and their employees the kind of feedback they need for improving their skills and to give the company more of what it needs. With passion, humor, and a rare insight into what motivates all of us to do our best, Culbert offers all of us a chance to be better managers, better employees and, indeed, better people. Culbert has long said his goal is to make the world of work fit for human consumption. Get Rid of the Performance Review!shows us how to do just that. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Samuel A.

Members Reviews: Enjoyable listen but I have doubts This is a worthwhile listen. The author makes a great case for ridding the world of annual performance reviews. However, the author assumes implicitly that you are working with above average, reasonable employees. I don't think his prescription works with the garden variety slackers, who always have an excuse for being late or not getting work done. It's that time again - Mid Year Performance Rev I came across this book purely by accident or was it? l enjoyed listening to the narrator and author read his material because for me, it added that ounce of credibility to what he wrote. Further to that, he certainly displayed his full and utter disdain for performance reviews; and here I was thinking I was the only one who felt this is an absolute waste of time, manipulation at its finest and sincere and utter rubbish, where bullies go to hide. With approval from upper management and coercion and collusion of the HR department, the rest of us don't have a chance. I found myself in a situation where a colleague of mine was prompted without the job vacancy being announced and asking why. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/The-Ultimate-Sales-Revolution-Sell-Differently-Change-the-World-Audiobook/B0155OWHVK Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: waste of time and money This was a waste of time and money. No specific information or instructions. Just vague recommendations that anyone looking to start a business would already know. It looks like they made a generic audiobook and then just inserted an introduction on the topic. The same audiobook is probably used in all their "How to" series and just the intro is changed. So outdated This was entirely useless. Maybe in the 90s this was a relevant book in this business. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Good-Boss-Bad-Boss-Audiobook/B075MS9K2M Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

He found that most of the stories and cries for help he received revolved around one central figure in every workplace: the boss. Sutton's subsequent research showed that the success of every boss depended heavily on how well (or badly) they managed those they worked with. In Good Boss, Bad Boss, he demonstrates this by weaving together the best psychological and management secrets with true stories, revealing the mind-set and moves of the best bosses and contrasting them with the behaviour of the worst.

Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: The Core Competence of the Corporation challenged and redefined traditional concepts of management strategy in a market that was growing increasingly global and competitive. Business scholars C. K. Prahalad and Gary Hamel base their 1990 argument for a strategy change on a comparison of case studies. They note that some corporations are adept at inventing new markets, quickly entering emerging markets, and shifting patterns of customer choice in established markets. The authors suggest that the ability to identify core competencies allows companies to develop new products quickly, and they challenge managers to emulate these best practices, offering a blueprint of how to accomplish this. One of the most reprinted articles in the history of the Harvard Business Review, The Core Competence of the Corporation has been highly influential in the ongoing debate about business strategy and corporate competitiveness, topics of critical importance to the global economy. The article won the authors the McKinsey Award, given to outstanding articles published in the Harvard Business Review. biacuaduc@gmail.com (The Macat Team) Wed, 08 Jun 2016 13:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/A-Macat-Analysis-of-C-K-Prahalad-and-Gary-Hamels-The-Core-Competence-of-the-Corporation-Audiobook/B01GQSG198 thebookvoice.com 01:49:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Family dynamics rarely perfectly mirror the best practices in the latest Harvard Business Review. So what factors in the family and work environments enable the creation of leaders who share the entrepreneurial fire of the founders? Do specific education, training, and experiential pathways tip the odds of entrepreneurial success across generations? How do some firms manage to bypass or work through the family conflicts, disparate visions of the future, sibling rivalries, generational struggles, or external disasters that seem to mark the demise of so many family businesses? Allan Cohen and Pramodita Sharma, scholars with deep professional and personal roots in family businesses, draw on extensive global research to reveal the secrets of enterprising families, using examples of both firms that flourished and those that failed. They describe the practices that characterize entrepreneurial individuals, families, and organizations and offer detailed advice on how to develop and implement those practices. Each chapter ends with a worksheet that helps listeners create an action plan for building entrepreneurs in every generation.

Members Reviews: An excellent resource for family business advisors and the members of business families alike One of the central issues regarding family enterprise sustainability resides in the challenge of cultivating multigenerational entrepreneurship within the family and the firm. Professors Allan R. Cohen and Pramodita Sharma, in their new book, Entrepreneurs in Every Generation, ably chart a course which enables both family members and their advisors to navigate the journey of continuity and sustainability. Both the challenge which the book addresses and an indication of the approach that the authors take may be usefully gleaned from the introductory chapter as conveyed by their observation that âOne barrier to long-term survival is the failure of the current leadership to develop, instill, and select entrepreneurial leadership in the next (and succeeding) generations involved with the business.â And, moreover, âWhether members of the next generation take managerial or non-managerial ownership roles or not, if they don't have the urge and capacity to innovate as needed when the business and social environment changes, their firms will not thrive.â [p. xxiv] The book is both an accessible conspectus on the growing field of family enterprise research and a practical tool and guide for members of family businesses, informed by both Cohen and Sharmaâs depth of experience and expertise as both researchers, consultants and members of business families. The inclusion of many worksheets and assessment tools (the APGAR scale of family functioning, for example) throughout the book adds to its practical applicability. And the judicious selection of several case studies adds immeasurably to the insights conveyed. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Laurence-Miller-on-Handling-Difficult-to-Disturbed-Employees-Audiobook/B00O9HSZB6 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

However, more than 70 percent of global workers are disengaged. They're sleepwalking through their day. How do you inspire employees to get off the sidelines and get into the game? Jill has uncovered four simple principles to turn your disengaged workforce into a unified, high-performing team and four leadership qualities you need to lead an employee disengagement revolution in your company. By cracking the code of employee disengagement you will: Ready to get started, champ? I thought so.... Members Reviews: Managerial Motivation This is an in-depth audio presentation about employee engagement and its importance in a successful business. It is informative and well-researched, and the message is valuable. The author reads the material herself and does a pretty good job. I listened at regular speed, though I usually bump up audiobooks to 1.25 because most narrators speak a bit more slowly than conversation speed to take care with enunciation. Jill Christensen, however, reads pretty clearly at conversation speed (or at least the speed at which one delivers information in a setting like this), so 1.25 does make it feel too rushed. I can tell she isn't one of those professional marketing fake cheerleader types who are proficient in BS and who might have done a slightly better job at the delivery of lines, but frankly, that makes me like her more. (Super perky people, like clowns, have their uses and place in society, but I can't help that they just creep me out.) Overall, this is a well-written, well-delivered, well-recorded, easy-to-follow, informative audiobook that is worth the time it takes to listen. I received this audiobook in exchange for an unbiased review. The number of stars is based on where I believe this audiobook rates with other audiobooks of the same type, length and general feel-- not where it rates in comparison to all audiobooks of all time. Great Information On how to motivate and communicate effectively with employees to get the best from them and make them feel invested in the company. I liked her take on leader vs. individual contributor and her four steps to increasing employee engagement. The use of champ and some of her examples were a little condescending but, overall, she gets to the point, stays on task and gives concrete ways you can use her material. I thought it was well done. I did listen on 1.5 speed as I usually do. I received this audiobook for free through Audiobook Boom! and am leaving honest feedback about the quality of the material. Well worth listening. Jill's book is full of very sensible and valuable guidance for anyone in the corporate setting. It is well organized and relevant for today's workplace. Not just for employees What did you love best about If Not You, Who? Cracking the Code of Employee Disengagement? The setting of the book is for employees but, it can be easily used for other groups as well. I was able to stay focused for the entire book. Jill using personal anecdotes. Who was your favorite character and why? Champ. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/General-Stanley-McChrystals-Team-of-Teams-New-Rules-of-Engagement-for-a-Complex-World-Summary-Audiobook/B01HGT3AZO Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

The old rules no longer apply When General Stanley McChrystal took command of the Joint Special Operations Task Force in 2004, he quickly realized that conventional military tactics were failing. Al Qaeda in Iraq was a decentralized network that could move quickly, strike ruthlessly, then seemingly vanish into the local population. The allied forces had a huge advantage in numbers, equipment, and training - but none of that seemed to matter. Teaching a leviathan to improvise It's no secret that in any field, small teams have many advantages - they can respond quickly, communicate freely, and make decisions without layers of bureaucracy. But organizations taking on really big challenges can't fit in a garage. They need management practices that can scale to thousands of people. General McChrystal led a hierarchical, highly disciplined machine of thousands of men and women. But to defeat Al Qaeda in Iraq, his Task Force would have to acquire the enemy's speed and flexibility. Was there a way to combine the power of the world's mightiest military with the agility of the world's most fearsome terrorist network? If so, could the same principles apply in civilian organizations? A new approach for a new world McChrystal and his colleagues discarded a century of conventional wisdom and remade the Task Force, in the midst of a grueling war, into something new: a network that combined extremely transparent communication with decentralized decision-making authority. The walls between silos were torn down. Leaders looked at the best practices of the smallest units and found ways to extend them to thousands of people on three continents. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Ant Hive Media) Fri, 24 Jun 2016 22:03:02 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/General-Stanley-McChrystals-Team-of-Teams-New-Rules-of-Engagement-for-a-Complex-World-Summary-Audiobook/B01HGT3AZO thebookvoice.com 00:26:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Igniting Customer Connections Subtitle: Fire up Your Company's Growth by Multiplying Customer Experience & Engagement Author: Andrew Frawley Narrator: Corey Gagne Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 6 mins Language: English Release date: 10-31-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: A new data-driven approach to building customer relationships that fuel sustainable business growth. Igniting Customer Connections explores how organizations of all sizes can build powerful and profitable customer relationships in a today's increasingly complex, fast-paced, and fragmented marketplace. Written by the president of one of the world's largest marketing firms, the audiobook provides expert insights about connecting with customers effectively across all channels and over time. The central premise is a refreshingly different, evidence-based approach called Return On Experience and Engagement, or ROE2, which delivers a new way to inspire and measure customer connections - and improve business results. The traditional marketing campaign - a battle for attention with a clear launch date and endpoint - no longer works. Marketing is faster and more complex than ever, and consumers now have the power to turn off the message. Igniting Customer Connections explores the benefits of a new approach that enables companies to connect with customers, rather than just talk at them. Topics include: The key to winning customers and building long-term business is creating positive customer experiences that inspire ongoing engagement - from Facebook "likes" to purchase decisions. Based on data and stories drawn from dozens of top brands and thousands of consumers, Igniting Customer Connections helps marketers create long-term brand equity and sustainable business growth. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Andrew Frawley) Fri, 31 Oct 2014 13:17:52 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Igniting-Customer-Connections-Audiobook/B00P1BJAV8 thebookvoice.com 05:06:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: How To Survive The New Marketing Landscape Reality check: Every citizen-buyer is a marketer now. Between tweets, posts and blogs, your consumer's reach is every bit as broad as any marketer you can think of. So you probably already realize how easy it is for today's consumer to simply turn off your message. But do you know what to do about it? Do you know how to actually connect with customers instead of merely talk at them? You'll need to if you want to create long-term brand equity. Finally, a commonsense approach about sustainable growth that provides evidence instead of opinions. And includes first-person accounts from leaders at organizations we've all heard of. But get ready for some of your most cherished thoughts about traditional marketing to be set ablaze when you check out the section on "Atomic Moments of Truth." Game. Set. And most definitely, Match. For example, forget classic ROI and think instead about a new way to inspire and measure customer connections: Return on Experience x Engagement (ROE2). With the proper consumer data and insights, you can create a constant sense of interest and excitement for your brand. And in doing so, consumers will sense that your brand moves faster, sees farther, and is highly experiential and more responsive to their future needs. You'll find each chapter intellectually challenging without being wonky. I believe any marketer of big brands must read this book and encourage her entire team to do so as well. And for savvy business leaders, smart marketers and CMOs looking to defy your brand's competitors . . . you would do well to make it essential reading. As a colleague of Andy's at Epsilon, I know that Igniting Customer Connections is much more than a book for him. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Scrum-Master-Box-Set-Audiobook/B06ZZXD2CW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Not relevant to me but slightly interesting. What did you like best about Making Standards Work? What did you like least? I thought it was read well but I didn't totally understand what the book was about. What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting? I knew nothing about the U.SlA.'s education system but I found the book rambling and didn't truly get the point. What about Douglas B. Reeves and Jesse Smith s performance did you like? I thought they read the book well. Did Making Standards Work inspire you to do anything? No. Any additional comments? Again, this book wasn't relevant to me as I'm not from the U.S.A.nor am I involved with schools but I still found it a little interesting to hear thoughts on how children should be taught. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Guide-to-Management-Ideas-and-Gurus-Audiobook/B00DW9WLPI Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Just a glossary Any additional comments? This is a reference book and it doesn't make for good listening. The first part is a glossary of management terms, most of which are really basic. The second part consists of very brief outlines of the life and works of prominent gurus. Beautifully useful guide If you could sum up Guide to Management Ideas and Gurus in three words, what would they be? You need to listen to this Audio before buying any business GURU book Which scene did you most enjoy? Second part - it let you know ideas and brief about whom you might need to read for Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry? I love it Any additional comments?

It is recognized as the efforts of a team to find a solution for a problem with the help of a list of ideas which are contributed by the members of the team. Not only does it help in solving problems more effectively, it also creates a level of camaraderie in the team by motivating and developing the team to work towards one goal. With the help of this book, listeners will be able to understand the history of brainstorming, its origins and how it came into existence. The continuous development of brainstorming as organizations embraced it in the form that it exists today, from Alex F. Osborn's frustration to get his employees into bringing creative ideas to the desk to computer-supported brainstorming which is being utilized by many organizations today to create a pool of ideas that can be accessed quickly and easily. As workplaces evolve to embrace new technologies and the advancements of products and services and as customers evolve with new demands that companies did not face before, the need for brainstorming has become extremely important in organizations. In the process of going through the journey that brainstorming has taken over time, we will also cover the challenges that organizations face when they try to brainstorm. With brainstorming turning into a mainstream process in many organizations, we are going to look at it from both sides to find out how effective it is, and if there is a con side to it as well. biacuaduc@gmail.com (IntroBooks) Thu, 19 May 2016 08:42:31 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Learn-and-Understand-Brainstorming-Audiobook/B01FV6ECZQ thebookvoice.com 00:31:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Ego-Inflated Biography What disappointed you about Think Like Zuck? The book reminds me of the recordings in the Bioshock games when they talk so highly of Andrew Ryan, thus painting him as a god. If the book was objective, it would have made it a 5-star book. Objectivity would make the book much more credible. Making Zuck into a god just makes it harder to see through the BS. What was one of the most memorable moments of Think Like Zuck? The book discusses numerous goings-on in the life of Zuck and how he thinks about business. While there are a lot of valid points in the book, it's difficult to know the level of importance that the author places on each point as the book reads too much like a glorification of Zuck. It's performed the same way. Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Donna Postel? I'd cast someone who doesn't make it sound so scripted. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Think Like Zuck? Don't cut anything. I want to hear everything in the book where it relates to the storyline. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/5S-Lean-Manufacturing-Audiobook/B00ICNR8LQ Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Too Repetitive, Good Substance, Average Speaker The book wasn't bad in regards to the overall content, however the delivery and voice of the speaker was not that good, and the content repeated in every chapter. I wouldn't really suggest this book. 5S? A brief overview. The 5S comes from Japan in which the words all start with the letter S. With a bit of effort they also start with the letter S in English. Sort Set in Order Shine Standardize Sustain Enough of the that; lean manufacturing; eliminate waste; workers fear change; convince them to change; lay them off when they are no longer needed as a result of their and their co-workers willingness to accept change. Having problems hire us to consult. Buy LED boards as they automatically lead to desirous outcome when the correct numbers are posted on them. Eliminate waste; lean manufacturing; six sigma can help to. If you are not going to hire us, at least hire someone. In conclusion we can help you understand the vague techniques in this book as well as convince your employees to trust you, so you can betray them. Here is our web address; hire us. The book does actually have some decent information, but it tends to be pretty vague and is mostly about selling consultancy, in my opinion. This is a commercial not a book Would you try another book from Ade Asefeso MCIPS MBA and/or Samuel Fleming? Absolutely not. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from 5S Lean Manufacturing? Every single internet address read out loud. Any additional comments? This was the most horrible listen I've had during my years with audible. This book is a lengthy commercial and you can learn more about 5S and Lean by using the same amount of time to Google either of them. Also it was horrible that the narrator didn't even try the correct pronounciation of the Japaneze words associated with either. It was a long, repetitive commercial for lean Would you try another book from Ade Asefeso MCIPS MBA and/or Samuel Fleming? no What was most disappointing about Ade Asefeso MCIPS MBAs story? It provided no actual information. It kept promising to, but then just kept repeating the same sales pitch over and over again. This was the first time I've ever written a negative review. Would you listen to another book narrated by Samuel Fleming? Indifferent What character would you cut from 5S Lean Manufacturing? NA 5 to 10 minutes of 5s max - then bits about lean Would you try another book written by Ade Asefeso MCIPS MBA or narrated by Samuel Fleming? No, I bought two by Ade Asefeso at the same time, this one had little to do with the 5S title, the other was like a glossary of terms not a book. Has 5S Lean Manufacturing put you off other books in this genre? i dont know, may be would need to check them out first Who might you have cast as narrator instead of Samuel Fleming? was not so much the narrator but the content What character would you cut from 5S Lean Manufacturing? N/A Any additional comments? if your looking for info in 5S this is not the book for you, little to no useful content, only 5 to 10 minutes worth in the whole book https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/IT-Survival-Guide-Audiobook/B00513NNLE Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: IT Survival Guide Subtitle: Conquering Information Technology in Your Organization Author: David Papp Narrator: Tim Lundeen Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 25 mins Language: English Release date: 05-17-11 Publisher: PFH Publishing Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 36 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Is your IT system an asset or a hindrance to your organization's success? More important, can you tell the difference? Unlike other well-recognized professions, information technology is still in its infancy. Organizations have little hesitation in paying attorneys, accountants, or business strategists for their expertise. As individuals, we don't blink an eye while paying for a physician's opinion of our health. Yet business executives rarely think to request a professional opinion from an IT consultant. If organizations wish to succeed in the future, however, this practice needs to change. Business owners and executives often see IT departments as financial drains and necessary evils rather than as additions of value to their organizations. And IT professionals stereotypically are unable to effectively communicate the benefits of IT investments to the organization due to limited "soft" skills. But both have responsibilities to establish more-effective communication and understanding, so that overall goals can be alligned. With this book you will gain an understanding of how IT systems and tools can offer your organization the best chance to succeed. Additionally, you will appreciate the value of IT assessments and professional consultations. In today's global market, information is indeed the most valuable commodity. Knowing how to best manage your organization's information with effective and efficient IT systems is therefore essential. This book aims to equip you with this valuable knowledge and enable you to achieve the success you desire. The book is published by PFH Publishing. Critic Reviews: "As the CEO of a busy organization, I fall into the category of the boss who tends to be a little daunted with all things of an IT nature. Often when communicating with IT support personnel, I get the strange feeling that we are not speaking the same language! David Papp's common-sense advice certainly helps to demystify the IT world and assists in planning for current and future IT needs. This is a must read for all business owners and provides a wealth of information delivered in an easy-to-read format."

Members Reviews: Bold companies maximising the power of social networks * Full disclaimer - I have worked with Shaun for over 7 years as a consultant and can attest to the high quality of his work both as an author as well as world class thought leader in Leadership and Customer Experience* This book is designed for the digital age and talks about how the brands featured are using the power of digital marketing and social media to their advantage by providing an outstanding customer experience, that in turn translates to positive word of mouth and organic growth. The app for the iPad is a differentiator for the book in that it allows the reader to compare their own organisation with the bold brands and see where they are doing well and where they could improve. Another strong point in this book is that, unlike many management books that focus solely on European or American companies, this book brings to life examples from around the world, from Asia, to Latin America, to North America and Europe, making it truly global. I highly recommend anyone to read it and to start implementing the lessons learned as soon as possible. A Global Business Bible BOLD is a fascinating read. The case studies will expand your thinking about "how to succeed in business with all really trying." It delves into a diverse group of businesses and brands, outlining their ongoing journeys. They are pioneers. They are worth your time. BOLD is a prism into business. Brainstorming, execution, sustainability - it is all here. Who is seeking constructive feedback from invested parties? How are they creating product, marketing, and events to make it happen? The answers and more importantly, the questions, are delivered in a clear, exciting layout that connects to digital media with links and references. BOLD is for you. Whether you are a university student, a local business owner, a CEO or a field employee delivering the customer experience, BOLD will have you thinking differently. We have all heard of thinking outside of the box. BOLD will challenge you to think outside of the pyramid, hexagon, and sphere. BOLD is passion. Great companies but too cliche management book writing It's a book full of impressive companies but it's written just like any other management book. It could've been narrated so much more interesting. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Scrum-Master-Scrum-Events-Box-Set-Audiobook/B01IC7L8RQ Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Power Failure Subtitle: The Inside Story of the Collapse of Enron Author: Sherron Watkins, Mimi Swartz Narrator: Henry Leyva Format: Abridged Length: 5 hrs and 53 mins Language: English Release date: 03-28-03 Publisher: Random House Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 46 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: From inside the walls of Enron, a lone whistleblower attempted to avert the course of events leading to the largest bankruptcy in American history. On August 16, 2001, Sherron Watkins wrote an anonymous letter to Enron's Chairman, Ken Lay, laying out problems with Enron's use of partnerships to hide debt. She warned of a possible scandal that could topple the company if investors and the news media learned of the operations. Then, she revealed her identity and confronted Lay directly. Lay did nothing, and the scandal broke, sending Enron's stock price into the basement and wiping out the life savings of many thousands of people. Hear how Enron's culture of greed and the relentless cutting of moral corners led to the ultimate disaster, as told by an insider. ©2003 Mimi Swartz (P)2003 Random House, Inc. Random House Audio, a division of Random House, Inc. Critic Reviews: "Swartz paints the most detailed portrait yet of the company's ambitious executives and toxic culture." (Business Week) "The book offers particularly strong perspective on some of Enron's wilder escapades... It does a stunning job of chronicling the power games within Enron." (Publishers Weekly) "Riveting to the reader who knows that Enron ended in bankruptcy but has no knowledge of what life was like inside the organization."

On August 16, 2001, Sherron Watkins wrote an anonymous letter to Enron's Chairman, Ken Lay, laying out problems with Enron's use of partnerships to hide debt. She warned of a possible scandal that could topple the company if investors and the news media learned of the operations. Then, she revealed her identity and confronted Lay directly. Lay did nothing, and the scandal broke, sending Enron's stock price into the basement and wiping out the life savings of many thousands of people. Hear how Enron's culture of greed and the relentless cutting of moral corners led to the ultimate disaster, as told by an insider. ©2003 Mimi Swartz (P)2003 Random House, Inc. Random House Audio, a division of Random House, Inc. Critic Reviews: "Swartz paints the most detailed portrait yet of the company's ambitious executives and toxic culture." (Business Week) "The book offers particularly strong perspective on some of Enron's wilder escapades... It does a stunning job of chronicling the power games within Enron." (Publishers Weekly) "Riveting to the reader who knows that Enron ended in bankruptcy but has no knowledge of what life was like inside the organization."

(Publishers Weekly) "Riveting to the reader who knows that Enron ended in bankruptcy but has no knowledge of what life was like inside the organization." (New York Times Book Review) Members Reviews: ENRON (Light) A light read that broadly covers the rise and fall of ENRON. If you are looking for juicy gossip you won't find a lot of it in here...nor will you find much in detail...nor will you find much outside of the author's knowledge. All-in-all a moderate recommendation but I would suggest that there are better recountings elsewhere. Rate this one about a 3 - recommended with reservations. A good "beach" listen. Complex . . . but good. This is a complex tale that doesn't stop to educate the listener on business and investment terms. The minutia of the business transactions may frustrate some listeners, however the big picture should be easily understood by most all. It is a shocking realization of how corporations can manipulate their earnings to meet earnings projections and satisfy stockholders. A very readable story on a complex subject I really did not believe that it could be possible to tell the Enron story without requiring the reader to take the cpa exam first - not to mention that it would be possible to LISTEN to the story and gain some insight! Mostly, the impossible task has been accomplished. The story on greed and criminal conduct is compelling, but what impresses me is that after listening to Power Failure, my own reading of Enron indictments in the business press have been enhanced. To follow the book, there is no need to understand the dirty details of SPEs and accounting entries to understand the reprehensible nature of Enron's officials and the behavior of the public accountants, lawyers, and investment bankers that condoned and promoted the fraud. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Become-Invaluable-to-Meeting-Planners-Audiobook/B002V8H79G Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Inside Strategy Subtitle: Value Creation from Within Your Organization Author: Shawn M. Galloway, Terry L. Mathis Narrator: Charles Braden Format: Unabridged Length: 4 hrs and 36 mins Language: English Release date: 05-04-16 Publisher: SCE Press Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Ask any two people what strategy is and you're likely to get two different answers. Ask those same two people how strategic thinking generates value at all levels from within an organization and you'll probably be met with blank stares. Ever since strategy gained currency as an organizational concept in the 1960s, there's been confusion about how to define it. Strategy isn't a detailed plan of action. Nor is it a corporate vision or an objective or a mission statement. Strategy is not what to think. It's how to think. Most books on strategy focus on external strategy: competition with rivals in business or overcoming the enemy on the battlefield. This book is different. The authors take strategic thinking and give it a new focus of attention inside your organization. Inside Strategy is aimed at aligned continual performance improvement. Inside Strategy gives you - and everyone in your organization - a method of managing an unknown future to create new value for your internal and external customers every day. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Shawn M.

Members Reviews: Five Stars Another great book Pro Act safety Great book on safety strategy This book is the next step (or STEP) in safety strategy development. While their book STEPS lays out all of these concepts, it is also dense with information and requires some time to digest. This book is an easy read and really probes at the âWhyâ question. Many people look for easy answers on safety. There arenât any but this book provides you with the questions that should be asked. When faced with thinking about strategy, safety professionals have had to translate/try to interpret externally focused books into what they are working on. This book has specifically focused on safety strategy and provides great guidance to build on. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/How-CIOs-Can-Bring-Business-and-IT-Together-Audiobook/B01MZII56N Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: How CIOs Can Bring Business and IT Together Subtitle: How CIOs Can Use Their Technical Skills to Help Their Company Solve Real-World Business Problems Author: Jim Anderson Narrator: Dr. Jim Anderson Format: Unabridged Length: 47 mins Language: English Release date: 02-09-17 Publisher: Blue Elephant Consulting Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: As the world has become more and more digital, the importance of the role of a CIO within a firm has increased. No longer can CIOs be content to focus exclusively on technical topics. Instead, we now have to consider what the company's goals are and how technology can be used to help the company achieve those goals. What you'll find inside: In order for both a CIO and an IT department to be successful, they are going to have to have the attention of the company's upper management. Getting that attention and then holding on to it is the job of the CIO. If you can get the attention that you need, then you'll have a much better chance of being able to secure the funding that your IT department is going to need in order to implement its programs. Once you've been able to secure the funding that your department needs the hard work really begins. You are going to have to find ways to maximize the value that you'll be able to get out of the funding that has been allocated to you. One way to make this happen is to attempt to align what the IT department is doing with what the rest of the company is doing. Easy to say, hard to do. One of the daily jobs of any IT department is to work with the rest of the company in order to better understand how they go about doing their jobs. This knowledge can then be used to identify new products that the IT department can create in order to simplify tasks that the company has to perform. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Jim Anderson) Thu, 09 Feb 2017 02:14:48 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/How-CIOs-Can-Bring-Business-and-IT-Together-Audiobook/B01MZII56N thebookvoice.com 00:47:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Relentlessly Relevant Subtitle: 50 Ways to Innovate Author: Douglas Kruger Narrator: Douglas Kruger Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 4 mins Language: English Release date: 08-14-17 Publisher: Douglas Kruger Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: "How are you changing my world today?" The rules of consumer engagement have changed. Your customers no longer care about legacy - what matters to them is how you are innovating into their world today. The classic "solve a problem" approach that industry giants have always employed is no longer relevant. Consumers want switched-on, creative responses to their needs and desires. In Relentlessly Relevant - 50 Ways to Innovate, professional speaker and business guru Douglas Kruger explores the field of innovation, reducing its subject matter to the simple starting points you need to become an industry trendsetter. It pinpoints the levers within your own business crying out for innovation as well as the bits you should leave alone at all costs, and it teaches you to change your traditional way of thinking, altering how you relate to your customers' immediate reality. Using examples from local and international brands, this book shows you don't have to be a tech giant to innovate, but you do need to know how to think in the right patterns. This is a business imperative. Innovators of today will own their industries tomorrow by constantly asking, "How can we become relentlessly relevant?" Douglas Kruger is a global speaker and business author. He helps organizations untangle the unexamined thinking that makes them industry dinosaurs and shows them where all the levers are for real-world innovation.

The rules of consumer engagement have changed. Your customers no longer care about legacy - what matters to them is how you are innovating into their world today. The classic "solve a problem" approach that industry giants have always employed is no longer relevant. Consumers want switched-on, creative responses to their needs and desires. In Relentlessly Relevant - 50 Ways to Innovate, professional speaker and business guru Douglas Kruger explores the field of innovation, reducing its subject matter to the simple starting points you need to become an industry trendsetter. It pinpoints the levers within your own business crying out for innovation as well as the bits you should leave alone at all costs, and it teaches you to change your traditional way of thinking, altering how you relate to your customers' immediate reality. Using examples from local and international brands, this book shows you don't have to be a tech giant to innovate, but you do need to know how to think in the right patterns. This is a business imperative. Innovators of today will own their industries tomorrow by constantly asking, "How can we become relentlessly relevant?" Douglas Kruger is a global speaker and business author. He helps organizations untangle the unexamined thinking that makes them industry dinosaurs and shows them where all the levers are for real-world innovation.

In the very end though, Matthew talks a lot about himself, lots of links, and acknowledgements. That is okay in a book but not an audiobook. Also the audio quality could have been better. Great What did you love best about Business Growth Day by Day? I loved the tips. There were practical and insightful. What did you like best about this story? It was a easy read. The language wasn't above my head and the lessons weren't too complex. What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike? The performance was ok. I wish the reader sounded more like he was talking to a person vs. speaking to an audience. I would've preferred less formal and more casual. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Michael-Watkins-on-Navigating-Your-Career-Transition-Audiobook/B00PBFT910 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Curing Medicare Subtitle: A Doctor's View on How Our Health Care System Is Failing Older Americans and How We Can Fix It Author: Andy Lazris Narrator: Darryl Hughes Kurylo Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs and 18 mins Language: English Release date: 09-19-16 Publisher: University Press Audiobooks Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Andy Lazris, MD, is a practicing primary care physician who experiences the effects of Medicare policy on a daily basis. As a result, he believes that the way we care for our elderly has taken a wrong turn and that Medicare is complicit in creating the very problems it seeks to solve. Aging is not a disease to be cured; it is a life stage to be lived. Lazris argues that aggressive treatments cannot change that fact but only get in the way and decrease quality of life. Unfortunately, Medicare's payment structure and rules deprive the elderly of the chance to pursue less aggressive care, which often yields the most humane and effective results. Medicare encourages and will pay more readily for hospitalization than for palliative and home care. It encourages and pays for high-tech assaults on disease rather than for the primary care that can make a real difference in the lives of the elderly. Lazris offers straightforward solutions to ensure Medicare's solvency through sensible cost-effective plans that do not restrict patient choice or negate the doctor-patient relationship. Curing Medicare demonstrates how Medicare often promotes care that is ineffective, expensive, and contrary to what many elderly patients and their families really want.

Information Technology plays a vital role for a companyâs ability to compete and survive in todayâs business world. It is vital for decision making, marketing, business growth, collaboration, resource management, and customer support. It is impossible to attain long term business success without leveraging the benefits of information technology in this digital age, but how can a small to medium size organization with limited personnel and resources meet the organizationâs IT service needs while providing an adequate level of security? Ultralight IT not only introduces the reader to the tools necessary, but gets the reader to focus on the business problem first. The heart of Ultralight IT is the proper utilization of the tool-sets you choose to use. Ultralight IT is A MUST for any small business organization and their IT team. I think that this book is the perfect companion to Guerrilla Marketing because it addresses the needs of smaller to medium sized organizations to compete with the giants. Solid survey of excellent best practices and advice. Read this book if you're interested in a solid survey of excellent best practices and advice. As someone whose role is shifting towards DevOps and IT, I found incredible value consolidated into this little book. Schwab warns us that the latter chapters of the book might only be interested if we're deploying Google cloud-based services. He is correct. I found tremendous value in the larger first part, marginal value in the second. If you want to deploy Google Docs in your organization, you will find tremendous value throughout. Read it! Perspective for the non technical technology professional Personally i enjoyed the way the author focuses on business oriented impact of technology evolution, I believe many facts of this book are relevant for today's businesses if they are looking to leap into a more proficient working environment, a highly recommended book in my opinion At last a guide to meet the IT business challenges facing us all. With the advent and growing popularity of social entrepreneurs and the democratization of the economy I imagine many start-ups and small businesses will find this an invaluable resource, as they try to realize their dreams on shoe-string budgets. In particular as the competition for IT talent grows. Andy does a great job of defining the challenges, identifying the pain points of so many smaller businesses and developing a creative solution that utilizes the advances in Cloud technology. Somewhat philosophical, as well as identifying that there is a strong education component, I'm part of the organization where he implemented this solution and the results were phenomenal. He does a good job making it an enjoyable read even for the non-geeks who might pick this up. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Leading-with-Vision-Audiobook/B073VRS33N Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

What does it mean to lead with vision? In the first book devoted entirely to vision as a key leadership principle, the authors delve deeply into the notion that a compelling vision that motivates and inspires is a true differentiator for organizations that want to hire and retain talent, be more competitive, and thrive in uncertain times. But a compelling vision on its own is not enough, which is why the authors, sought-after leadership development experts globally, provide listeners with detailed analyses of the essential things leaders must do to effectively engage the workforce around that vision: embody courage, forge clarity, build connectedness and shape culture. Leading with Vision draws on quantitative data from the authors' research of over 400 companies supplemented with real-world examples from thoughtful leaders who exemplify the core principles of leading with vision in established companies, including: Olukai, Bumble Bee, Coresystems, Jimbo's, Bunge and more.

Members Reviews: Not succinct and far too much irrelevant backstory I'm not sure if it's just the content, or if it was the combination of the narrator (who sounded very robotic and no charisma) and a bad book, but I really didn't enjoy this audiobook. The book starts by explaining that in order for businesses and leaders to appeal to Gen Y, they need to change their approach - something I thought would be really interesting to hear about. The introduction then went on to explain that in order to keep the subject engaging, the book was written as a series of situational stories about past experience, as opposed to just the research. Unfortunately, I found it very dull and incredibly long-winded in many places. The stories were so long, I lost interest. They never seemed to get to the point, but spent a lot of time on useless information (example was explaining the translation of random Hawaiian words in the context of a shoe company). I spent most of the booking waiting for it to turn a corner and start providing memorable conclusions or succinct actions to address vision, and appealing to Gen Y - unfortunately, this never happened. With the exception of the introduction which contextualised the significance of Gen Y on the global workforce, there was nothing else memorable from the book. Really disappointing. The subject matter is interesting and clearly, there has been a lot of research on the subject by the author, but I wouldn't recommend this book. My advice is to look elsewhere for the answers to the dilemma of relating to and engaging Gen Y / Millenials. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Data-Analytics-Audiobook/B077GDPF9J Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Leading Medical Group Transformation Author: Vic Arnold, Matthew Bates Narrator: Wayne Edwards Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 29 mins Language: English Release date: 12-20-17 Publisher: WestVoice Audioworks Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Medical groups are the new front door to your health system. Unlocking their potential will allow you to thrive in a value-based world. Value-based payment models, the rise of patient consumerism, and crossing the tipping point on physician employment are all bringing about massive changes in how healthcare is delivered. Your medical group - or, if you're a leader inside a large health system, your affiliate medical groups - must transform to meet these new realities. And there is no time to waste. Medical groups are new the front door to the American health system. They are the most consistent touch-point with patients.

This means that medical group leaders, on the hospital side and the practice side, are in an incredible position. You are the catalyst that drives transformation. Leading Medical Group Transformation shares an exciting message for all medical group leaders - including those who lead academic medical centers (AMCs), clinically integrated networks (CINs), federally qualified health centers (FQHCs), or rural health clinics (RHCs). Rethinking how you structure and market your business - and engage clinicians, employees, and patients - is the key to unlocking the potential of your medical group and helping your entire health system thrive in a value-based world. Listeners will learn: If you have a vision for what your medical group could be, think of this audiobook as your blueprint for the future.

Members Reviews: Thought leadership marketing made simple and accessible This is a fantastic book on thought leadership marketing and building your authority. One of the reasons I found it particularly helpful is because it gets right to the point and is a relatively quick read. It puts a great emphasis on content marketing such as blogging, very high-quality guest posting, being an author of e-books and a printed book, podcasting and video etc. These are just a few of the things you will learn to help you build your authority and reputation online and off-line. John uses some fun examples such as doing marketing for everything from a live lobster company to high tech software companies etc. John is an international expert on email marketing and social media as well and helps put into perspective how all of the tactics go together. A must read for everyone from entrepreneurs to small businesses or even students looking for a strategy on how to build their career and get more respect over the long term. ***MUST READ*** ATTENTION MARKETING EXECS As a senior marketing executive looking to remain current and competitive in the workforce, it is IMPERATIVE that I equip myself with the latest knowledge, marketing ideas and trends. "Becoming THE Expert," by John W. Hayes, convinced me within the first few pages that I was on the right track to gaining the upper-hand in the fast-paced world of digital and new media content and "thought leadership" marketing. This is a MUST READ for anyone in marketing, sales, strategy or development who is seeking creative, innovative ways to propel their business forward. Thank you, John! A great Thought Leadership guide Would have strongly preferred the hard copy over Kindle. But it was very good. A great resource. Easy to Digest extremely Valuable This is an an excellent resource whether you are a small business owner or a professional working for a medium to large Corporation. This book is easy to digest and empowers you to leverage Mr. Hayes' expertise to enhance your value as a business owner, executive, or employee . This book helped me improve my professional capabilities substantially. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Nurture-Audiobook/B00NNUAJ0A Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Pinpoints the true essence of what it is to be a manager! Before becoming a fulltime business owner I was once a territory manager for one of the largest insurance companies in the world. I managed a total of 1,247 agents that spanned across two unique states and was responsible for attaining a yearly sales goal in excess of $20,000,000. I also have a Bachelors degree in Business Administration and Business Management. I make mention to these facts for the sole purpose of allowing the reviewer to understand that this review is not coming from someone who has never managed or been in a position to manage people. With that said, I can certainly vouch for the techniques found in âNurture: The Team Development Manual For First-Time Line Managers.â Looking back on my life I could only have wised to come across a book of this quality and one that pinpoints the true essence of what it is to be a manager. Words to describe this book are: Captivating, Informative and a Must Buy for anyone who owns a business or one anyone who has just become a manager. This book is pretty straightforward and to the point, which is one of the qualities that I liked most. In all honesty it should be placed in the toolbox for any manager. The book does a marvelous job of connecting the reader with the tools needed to succeed in leading the people that work for you. I got through this book in about a day and found myself going back several times for reference. In closing I rate this book 5 Stars and canât wait to see what Author John James Newton comes up with next. Nurture Short direct chapters which were focused allowing time to digest views presented by the author. Plan to use this as a daily reference. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Jathan-Janove-on-Hard-Won-Wisdom-Audiobook/B06Y4ZSPNN Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: A very basic and adequate book A very rudimentary covering on the topic of questions for business. Most of the chapters have a few interesting questions, but then say see our web site for more. Not sure why I would buy the book that wants me to goto their web site, unless the book contains a "key" to use the web site which is not available for free. No key was obvious listening to the audio. I'd say go read their web site material. If you like what you see, great this sounds like the meat of what they have to offer. If you don't, great you have been able to see you don't need this material. Almost all the stories are so generic, scrubbed and basic that I didn't feel they provided value or sell me on the concepts. Since the stories were so generic, it's unclear where they been able to help others through getting to greatness. Given the other higher marked reviews, so must have found them helpful. The book attempts to cover very broad ranging topics in a single chapter, leaving he material very superficial and light real material. Here's my break down by chapter. Chapter 1 Questions that get results: Compare and contrast questions was the high light of this chapter. Chapter 2 Questions that manager your team: Nothing noteworthy for me here. There is a lot better material else where Chapter 3 Questions that delegate: basic delegation chapter Chapter 4 Questions that coach: Chapter 5 Questions that motivate: basic overview and I was motivated to move by quickly Chapter 6 Questions that hire: The most interesting part was a short section on how to get interviewees to be specific Chapter 7 Questions that uncover goals: interesting couple of questions to help unlock potential for middle tier employees Chapter 8 Questions that manage across: Very basic overview with overly simple examples Chapter 9 Questions that manage upwards: Good reminder to manage up and basic overview Chapter 10 Questions that develop and sustain external business relationships: good reminder to network Chapter 11 Questions that manage your career: basics of figuring out what do you want from your career. Challenges you to think about how to use this material understands the wants/needs of your employees careers Chapter 12 Questions that assess opportunities: gets you thinking about questions you should yourself and hiring company if you are considering a new opportunity. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Total-Quality-Management-Audiobook/B01JZS5PRK Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Some good ideas, but now there are better TQM was a great idea in its time. Now one can see that TQM, like what came before and after it like Excellence and Six Sigma, is just a subset of what really works- Open-Book Management (see the book of the same name by John Case). When TQM, or any similar program, is implemented, in order for it to work, needs to address the other areas of OBM such as financial information and understanding, appropriate responsibilities, and a stake in the rewards. Fortunately, not only does this book/tape talk about TQM in particular, but it also talks about certain issues involved in implementing any similar type of program. Not much more than a promo for a specialized analysis proc. The audio book discusses companies which are successful at using a particular analysis procedure but barely touches on management itself. More of an 'infomercial' as it lacks quality content. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Property-Management-Audiobook/B01HQOXOD2 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Do Lead Author: Les McKeown Narrator: Les McKeown Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 24 mins Language: English Release date: 11-30-17 Publisher: The Do Books Co. Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Real-world leadership is very different from all that the media would have us believe. Forget the dashing swashbuckler - effective leadership is typically understated. It's the myriad small things that make the big things possible. In Do Lead, Les McKeown demolishes the myths that have paralysed leadership in our modern era, then provides new, relevant tools for the job. You'll discover that we can all lead. And what's more, we should. Because effective leadership is goal-oriented, not people-oriented. It's about the person with the right skills putting themselves forward. Find out: Whether you are new to the game or reigniting a dormant passion, start leading from where you are, right now, and make a difference. You can lead. Yes, you. Critic Reviews: "When Les writes, I read. Don't be deceived by this book's diminutive size - it's like a rich, chunk of leadership fudge that you never want to end. This eye-opening, challenging, and encouraging book may be small, but it packs a big punch." (Steve McKee, Businessweek columnist and author) "If you don't think of yourself as a leader - think again. Les McKeown shows you how to be a great one. This is a must read for anyone who leads (or wants to lead) a company, team or group." (JJ Ramberg, Host of MSNBC's Your Business) "A thoroughly refreshing take on what real leadership is all about. It is not about heroics or headlines, it is about achieving real results in the here and now. It's short, to the point, and not to be missed."

In Do Lead, Les McKeown demolishes the myths that have paralysed leadership in our modern era, then provides new, relevant tools for the job. You'll discover that we can all lead. And what's more, we should. Because effective leadership is goal-oriented, not people-oriented. It's about the person with the right skills putting themselves forward. Find out: Whether you are new to the game or reigniting a dormant passion, start leading from where you are, right now, and make a difference. You can lead. Yes, you. Critic Reviews: "When Les writes, I read. Don't be deceived by this book's diminutive size - it's like a rich, chunk of leadership fudge that you never want to end. This eye-opening, challenging, and encouraging book may be small, but it packs a big punch." (Steve McKee, Businessweek columnist and author) "If you don't think of yourself as a leader - think again. Les McKeown shows you how to be a great one. This is a must read for anyone who leads (or wants to lead) a company, team or group." (JJ Ramberg, Host of MSNBC's Your Business) "A thoroughly refreshing take on what real leadership is all about. It is not about heroics or headlines, it is about achieving real results in the here and now. It's short, to the point, and not to be missed." (Rita Gunther McGrath, professor and author) Members Reviews: Do Read Do Lead Do Lead is an essential book for anyone who wants to understand the true nature of leadership. It will challenge your assumptions and help you understand your role as a leader more clearly. Five Stars Inspiring read, shipped quick. A great little book that reminds us that while "heroic leadership" ... A great little book that reminds us that while "heroic leadership" may be rare and something we admire from afar, in the majority of cases leadership not a noun, but a verb & is something we can all participate in - if we dare. Useful framewoek The book provided another tool for developing self awareness in the workplace, and how individual styles impact the function if a team. I appreciated the additional resources links to expand upon the chapter topics. Delivery is very nice!

The fact is that a lot of business owners and supervisors are way too stuck in conventional thinking. They do not desire to alter their ways. The lean start-up has actually taken a very long time to catch on since business owners residing in an outdated world required somebody to open their eyes to the fact that their old-fashioned approaches are triggering more negative than positive outcomes.

Members Reviews: Perfect reference for college HR classes! What made the experience of listening to Human Resources Management: The Basics and Supporting Key Components the most enjoyable? I loved how I could understand it better than my professor and the text books that we use. The author really makes it easy to understand HR management! The narrator also was great and reading the words so that they are easy to understand! Very useful guide on human resource management This audiobook was very beneficial to my human resource management class. I loved how the material was organized and explained in a scholarly way. Great work by a business major! total waste of time and money. multiple reading errors that the narrator didn't even bother to correct. Incredibly awkward sentence construction that makes entire passages incomprehensible. almost no substance comma and one Bland general statement after another without any useful content. I could not possibly rate an audible product any lower. Very basic Not much information in this book. It's also very short.

Doubling revenue after losing 80 percent of the company's sales team in the depths of the worst recession in 80 years - not so much. Statistics from the "Great Recession" have been grim: 200,000 small businesses across the country were forced to close their doors over the past five years, causing a loss of over three million jobs. Given those kind of numbers, most small businesses are happy to simply survive these days. But Jay Myers, founder and CEO of Interactive Solutions, Inc. (ISI) - headquartered in Memphis, Tennessee - took a different approach. Myers and his company made a conscious decision in 2007 that they were "not going to participate in the recession" and weathered both personal and professional crisis to not only strengthen the company, but grow ISI's business like never before. A storyteller at heart, Myers offers listeners plenty of solid tips and practical advice that any entrepreneur and small-business owner can appreciate and apply. But he also challenges these same entrepreneurs and small business owners to get "out of their comfort zone" and embrace creative new strategies such as employee accountability and second chances, niche marketing, and using your book as your hook. Myers shows small-business owners and entrepreneurs to not only hit the curveballs that are thrown their way, but actually use them to grow their business like never before. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Jay Myers) Wed, 09 Jul 2014 00:06:37 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Hitting-the-Curveballs-How-Crisis-Can-Strengthen-and-Grow-Your-Business-Audiobook/B00LMGJ8QI thebookvoice.com 03:37:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

They didn't realize that those kids in baggy jeans represented a whole new and lucrative market opportunity, one they could have seen coming if they had but been paying attention to the shape of American culture. Levi Strauss isn't alone. Too many corporations outsource their understanding of culture to trend hunters, cool watchers, marketing experts, consulting firms, and, sometimes, teenage interns. The cost to Levi-Strauss was a billion dollars. The cost to the rest of corporate America is immeasurable. The lesson? The American corporation needs a new professional. It needs a Chief Culture Officer. Grant McCracken, an anthropologist who now trains some of the world's biggest companies and consulting firms, argues that the CCO would keep a finger on the pulse of contemporary cultural trends, from sneakers to slow food to preppies, while developing a systematic understanding of the deep waves of culture in America and the world. The CCOs professionalism would allow the corporation to see coming changes, even when they only exist as the weakest of signals. Delightfully authoritative, trenchantly on point, bursting with insight and character, Chief Culture Officer is sure to expand your horizons and your business. Critic Reviews: "The title of this book is a lie. It's not merely for companies that decide they need a Chief Culture Officer, or even just for those who aspire to that job. It's for you. Right now.

Members Reviews: A Systematic Way to Understand WHY and HOW to Let a Bad Fit or No Longer Engaged Employee Go Know you need to remove someone from your team, but avoiding taking action? So much wisdom and helpful strategies are contained in 'Multiplication By Subtraction' that can change this. Leaders have been encouraged for years by such books as 'From Good to Great' and 'Necessary Endings' to fire fast. The author explains in vivid detail the consequences to the business and the team of procrastinating or avoiding such actions. Also included in this book are the signs and symptoms of someone who needs to be subtracted from the group and a very straightforward system for handling the matter. Founders, leaders, managers and HR leads will enjoy this book and its advice. It is short, in fact, I was able to absorb it during an evening by the pool, bubbly in hand. Short, but insightful. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/101-Questions-Answers-About-Standards-Assessment-and-Accountability-Audiobook/B002V0QSE4 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Should Be a Standard for Audio to Prevent This What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? No real way to redeem this. Perhaps a Q&A PDF if anything. What could Douglas B. Reeves have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you? Listen to it themselves and see that the pain didn't justify a potential reward. Would you be willing to try another one of Douglas B. Reeves and Jesse Smith s performances? Not narrated like this. If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from 101 Questions & Answers About Standards, Assessment, and Accountability? Everything between page one and wherever it ended. Any additional comments? Avoid this. Excellent! This book is highly readable and answers questions in ways parents, teachers, and even older (high school) students can understand. If you are a school administrator, this should be required reading. For me this book sucks. Not at all what I though What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you? Not so drawn out What was most disappointing about Douglas B. Reevess story? really very dry Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Douglas B. Reeves and Jesse Smith ? I really don't know, a more consise booke would work better What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? Fell a sleep Any additional comments?

Members Reviews: Not recommended I've listened to three chapters of Vango-notes for this textbook, after having studied each chapter on my own. It's a very disappointing experience and I want a refund! After three chapters, I've found that Vango-notes only covers roughly 1/3 of each chapter (within 8 minutes) before proceeding with a sparse set of questions that randomly quizzes on the remainder of each chapter. What I expected was to find was a deliberate effort to cover all the main points of each chapter. Not someone reading 1/3 of these key points virtually word-for-word from the textbook. This is a waste of your money and the other reviewers who've given this a poor score have certainly come to the same conclusion. save your money i got this thinking it would help, but it only covers about 10 pages out of 30 for each chapter. It also skips around and doesn't cover the text fully. I really wish I didn't waste my time and money. Very Helpful Great summaries of the chapters with 3 sections of quizzes. I have been scoring well on our quizzes without reading the actual book. Thanks for the effort but not helpful I almost purchased this audio, all the chapters. But soon, I saw the reviews on it, I changed my mind, and after download chapter 7. They need to come up with better presentation of each chapter.

Members Reviews: Useful Guide for Making Recognition a Success This book is right on - a great guide to preventing the pitfalls that can hamper a recognition program, exploring common myths and practical tips about the roles of HR and managers and recognition methods. During my own experience of leading a team recognition program several years for a $5B company, I developed an appreciation for the useful advice in "Make Their Day!" in making meaningful recognition a valuable tool in the success of initiatives and company culture. The examples and case studies are just long enough to illustrate real-life application of the author's many nuggets of advice, and every chapter ends with a "Taking Action" list of suggestions for successful recognition program implementation. For another quick read with step-by-step tips, I also recommend:Metrics You Can Manage For SuccessandCustomer Experience Improvement Momentum. Engage and empower your team! Employees are the most important asset of an organization.Ensuring they understand the mission and values of the company is paramount. Ventrice provides and excellent model for employee engagement and recognition. She also provides some excellent surveys to help you assess the current situation in your organization. Three Stars Good product. Fast shipping. The Importance of Genuine and Meaningful Recognition. In a very logical, witty, and meaningful way, Cindy Ventrice illuminates key ideas associated with employee recognition, personal recognition, and the fundamental concept of recognition. On a deeper level, she fleshes out the compelling importance of what is means to 'really' give any person in any area of life what they need to feel genuinely valued as a human being. In one of her case examples she discusses the behavioral/recognition styles of "Design Octaves". This company gives their employees a trip to Hawaii after completing ten years of service. Again though, it is not just the reward of flying to Hawaii expenses paid. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/How-to-get-a-company-through-a-crisis-The-truth-revealed-about-business-risk-Audiobook/B01AWKSFU4 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

On the other hand, if you're looking for the actual steps to write and publish then this is not for you. She eludes to Amazon.com as a method of marketing but again if not for the facilitator, she wouldn't have explained what she meant very well. She shares her successes but doesn't really give any depth of information to actually do it. Waste of time and money I find it odd that someone claims that titles are important would botch the title of this seminar so thoroughly. The seminar deals rather poorly with how to get your book published (write came across as a flake who had to be re-directed by the interviewer). The seminar does not deal at all with how to write a book. As for marketing the book, you would need to be a public speaker; otherwise most of her advice does not apply. In my experience, most writers are more comfortable in front of a computer than in front of a crowd. Ultimately, this lady is a public speaker who also happens to writes books, not a writer and it shows. She is probably a very confident public speaker who thinks she can wing most speeches and get away with it, as she seems to have done with this interview. If you happen to be like her then this may help by giving you some ideas, otherwise save your money. Misnamed, horrible recording quality What disappointed you about How to Write, Publish, and Market a Book with No Out-of-Pocket Expense?

However, this book has opposite direction , it is a pure practical, well organized and short. Anyway, I would recommend this book for anyone who has ambitions to start up a new business and he/she does not have read books in business where this one is comprehensive, practical and brief. On the other hand, I think it is not appropriate for those who looking for academic info or looking for in-depth facts. Great read for those who wish to start a business This book is a very good read. It is filled with a lot of practical advice by someone who "walks the talk". It reads like a novel and we follow the author on his entrepreneurial journey with his ups... and downs. As an entrepreneur I strongly resonated with this journey. If you wish to hold your destiny in your hands and create your business you will find there very nice insights and a great energy to help you along this path ! Learn the journey with practical tips If you want something practical and useful and not the business jargon, get this book!! A great book on starting a business, especially if you want a down-to-earth with a fresh and personal voice. I passed it on to my son who wants to be a business man, he found it very informative. Creating a company is a dream that can easily turn into a nightmare if one has not has ... Creating a company is a dream that can easily turn into a nightmare if one has not has not measured all the expectations, good or bad. This book tells a real story. It highlights the ups and downs, the hurdles one has to go over and provides a lot of good information that can be applied to a variety of cases. I strongly recommend it to anyone looking into entering this type of adventure. Hands-on & very practical A very hands-on and practical account based on real-life personal experience on starting up one's own business. Very useful for anyone facing the challenge of embarking on a similar journey.

Title: The Big Store Subtitle: Inside the Crisis and Revolution at Sears Author: Donald R. Katz Narrator: John Rayburn Format: Abridged Length: 2 hrs and 50 mins Language: English Release date: 12-16-99 Publisher: Katz, Donald Ratings: 2.5 of 5 out of 10 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: In 1972, Sears, Roebuck, and Co. was America's greatest store, accounting for over 1 percent of the gross national product. Suddenly, profits plummeted and the stock price collapsed. Sears was at civil war and in need of a new leader. In 1978, Edward R. Telling became the Sears chairman, and by 1984 Sears was back on top, bigger than ever. Telling turned things around so dramatically it seemed like a miracle. But the resurrection of Sears as a great American merchant was no miracle, but the result of the power, vision, and will of strong leadership. Award-winning journalist Donald Katz, who received unprecedented and unrestricted access to Sears's records, meetings, and executives, delivers a spellbinding account that gives you a front-row seat to a corporate revolution.

Katz Members Reviews: If you're a Sears employee... or want to get inside the mentalities of corporate leadership in the 1970s and 80s, this is a good read. I'm the former, so I have particular interest in the history of the company (especially this particular phase). Overall, this was not an easy read, as the book launches into many topics without providing extensive context. It is interesting in that it covers the tenure of Telling by and large, the CEO who presided over the downfall from "great" to "mediocre" for Sears. Sears was WALMART before his tenure, being as large as the #2, #3, #4, and #5 retailers in the US combined. What happened? The path to mediocrity is not covered in this book, although it happened in the exact timeframe covered by this book. The author doesn't address that and just highlights the events and decisions without judging Telling and co. The style of the audio is painful and takes you back in time as though you're listening to the radio in the 1960s. That said, I was able to survive it since it is only about 3 hours long. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Purpose-Meets-Execution-Audiobook/B072KSY9RF Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: basic compilation copy-paste from business books terrible waste of money and time. Not so much about scaling, as an endless enumeration of all the business processes that happen in a company and their definitions. Vague, generalized overview of business functions with no examples nor cases. Numerous painfully obvious observations: "to grow your business you need to grow sales." "you need to choose good people for your team" and so on... This book is just a compilation of general statements thrown in together. sad. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Human-Resources-Management-and-Industrial-Organizational-Psychology-Audiobook/B00J47FQ9K Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Human Resources Management and Industrial/Organizational Psychology Author: Steven G Carley Narrator: Dan McGowan Format: Unabridged Length: 29 mins Language: English Release date: 03-20-14 Publisher: SGC Production Ratings: 2.5 of 5 out of 9 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: The job of human resources management is to hire the best and most capable individuals in terms of job performance. This job may have become more difficult with the advent of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 stating in no manner shall one be denied employment basing upon race or sex. The selection process now may not base strictly upon performance, yet upon other criteria resulting at times in a less efficient workforce. This is the result of a quota system and lower testing cutoff scores to accommodate the Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures. It is a great difference hiring less capable front desk attendants and less capable pilots. Despite a more culturally fair employment practice losses in productivity do not gear toward the hiring of a minority population. As one can make the assumption the field of industrial/organizational psychology is ever interested in this topic of employment selection and human resources management and their duty to hiring not only the most efficient and capable workforce, but also one which is free of illegal employment practices. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Steven G Carley) Thu, 20 Mar 2014 02:47:14 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Human-Resources-Management-and-Industrial-Organizational-Psychology-Audiobook/B00J47FQ9K thebookvoice.com 00:29:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Completely 1-Dimensional The book reinforces the notion that diversity has no value, written from the perspective of someone who hasn't bothered to learn legal analysis. Over simplification What was most disappointing about Steven G Carleys story? The assumptions expressed, and characterization offered where so simplifies that they are likely to mislead, and/or misinform the reader. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Agile-Product-Management-Audiobook/B01MYZ03JA Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

It is filled with essential information to make the development and release of a product a great success. I liked the steps format of the book. Abstracts of Planning Prior with books I have relating with this topic, I may say this one is also good but just did not meet what I am expecting to find. All on all, this piece provided basic information only in general aspect as this has only a few pages, but still a great help with those people who are already applying these ideas with their existing online business. Five Stars Recommended for people looking an introduction to this topic Buyer beware Not sure who gave this product high votes, but it's not a book. There are only 69 pages with almost zero content. The content is basically the stuff you'd find for free on Wikipedia and nearly every page has an ad, urging the reader to buy more books. I would like my money back. Agile Scrum Overview If you are looking to learn the basic process of Agile product management, this is a great book to help understand the process. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Super-Agent-Audiobook/B00IIW2HX0 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: Super Agent Subtitle: How I Took on the NFL and Won, and My Plan to Reform the NCAA Author: Dr. Jerry Argovitz, J. David Miller Narrator: Gary Dikeos Format: Unabridged Length: 14 hrs and 12 mins Language: English Release date: 03-04-14 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 5 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Super Agent. Maverick. Reformer. Iconoclast. Dealmaker. Dentist? Jerry Argovitz has worn many hats in his remarkable life, both inside and outside of the world of sports. As a player agent representing and advising some of the biggest names in the game, Argovitz challenged the NFL both at the negotiating table and in the courtroom, earning a reputation as one of the most powerful men in professional sports. He successfully negotiated the first million-dollar guaranteed contract in NFL history, wrote the language for career-ending insurance policy underwriting for Lloyds of London, and brokered the deal that brought Heisman Trophywinner Herschel Walker to the upstart USFL as a junior, which opened the floodgates for all underclassmen to follow. As the owner of the Houston Gamblers of the USFL, Argovitz helped to implement several rules which were subsequently adopted by the NFL, and served as a principal figure in a lawsuit against the NFL that proved the league was guilty of Sherman Antitrust violations. Now, Argovitz has a plan to reform the corrupt world of college sports, a plan he will share in this eye-opening book. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Dr. Jerry Argovitz) Tue, 04 Mar 2014 19:02:37 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Super-Agent-Audiobook/B00IIW2HX0 thebookvoice.com 14:12:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

I have it in hard copy and it is probably the best book on innovation around. However I find Max's narration really irritating. He seems to be concentrating so much on pronunciation that the performance loses all emotion. It could and should be so much better for such a great book! Long winded Would you try another book written by Max Mckeown or narrated by Max Mckeown? Not really as I've listened to 2 now and they are both long winded and repetitive. Could easily be more to the point and easier to follow. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Turning-Setbacks-into-Opportunity-Audiobook/B00BWA4JHW Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Good title, light on substance Would you try another book from Marsha Norman and/or Michelle J. Gonzalez (AKA Renee Nasser)? Maybe, maybe not. I would have to look at other reviews and a description of the content. What does Michelle J. Gonzalez (AKA Renee Nasser) bring to the story that you wouldnt experience if you just read the book? Had I looked at a written version of this text, I could have thumbed through the pages before spending my money. This is a very "touchy feely" content. What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? Disappointment. I expected a little higher level material. Maybe the authors, thought by dumbing down the content, people would digest it better. Or, perhaps the target audience was someone that had NO management skill. If you have had any management training, then move to another text. The ideas and principles here are good. The delivery is very basic. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/From-Concept-to-Consumer-Audiobook/B0036F6F6E Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Fitness and being healthy is a growing trend that is unlikely to stop anytime soon.

This book was poorly written (improper verb tenses, incorrect sentence structure). The information provided in this book is a high-level overview and all the supplied knowledge could be found via Googling. I was disappointed in the lack of information provided in this book, as well as the poor format. Would not recommend to anyone who wants to learn more about Agile/Scrum Product Development. Great Set of Books This is a great set of books. Both books complement each other. The first book teaches you how to develop the product vision. The second book teaches you how to release the product. A good book to have on your reference shelf This book is piled with information. Itâs advice has saved me from making many errors in this method. To produce a quality product change is ongoing and iteration advancement is not always foreseen in the areas I expect. Building a release plan and strategizing the people and skills we need are planning with lists. This book thankfully is more than lists and its products are the vision that the reader brings with them. The roadmap to release was something that begin with lists and people and ended with strategies and stories. This book is one I will appreciate as reference on my shelves. This was a good read.

Members Reviews: total time waster this is the kind of book that you can stuff like .. laugh with your team .. keep an eye on the business to boost its success .. family is important so you should keep a life-work balance... and that Alan Sugar is not an arse he has a sense of humor.. all nothint but a punch of unneeded geberrish. . i only bought this book for one reason. . to know the secret how a greuseomly silly character like Alan Sugar ever succeeded! 10 points where good.. the rest was pure brown nosing Enjoyed this book, but was irritated by the constant brown nosing of Sugar. No one doubts he is a brilliant tycoon, but every other sentence was copious amounts of praise and less about information. Apprentice or Sugar The book regularly refers to the apprentice to put points across around Sugar. I would handed preferred more information on his businesses and his approach. Overall an acceptable book around Sugar, highly repetitive and at 4 hours an excellent way to pass a long journey. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Management-A-Very-Short-Introduction-Audiobook/B00GHULO0W Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: excellent overview Knowing nothing about the discipline of management prior to reading this book, I now have a much better grasp of it. And I have a much better idea of which texts, studies, and authors to follow up on if I want to learn more. Thank you Oxford U Press and Professor Hendry! Not Recommended I had to read this book for one of my classes, and it was the worst book I have ever read. It is supposed to be a short introduction, but sits at about 120 pages, which is not short to me. Each chapter is extremely dull and boring, and could have been summed up in a few paragraphs. Not only was the content bad, but the book is really small, and therefore, harder to hold than it could have been. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/The-Levity-Effect-Audiobook/B002VA9W6U Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: Note to all managers: Have fun at work I was a little disappointmented with this management book. The first 4 or so hours of this book was mostly the authors saying "have fun" with a little bits of companies that implement programs for loosen up their staff. I can definitely appreciate the things Gostick and Christopher brought to the table in this book. They have worked with lots of relavent and current companies that are known for both their success and their relaxed business environment. But they spent a large portion of the book talking about companies in creative fields, such as advertising and marketing. In the last hour, the book finally moved into lots of ways to implement levity. The ideas were listed out which makes for tough listening. And the listening of the book was also made more difficult by the straight reading of the book. While I am sure the book was humorous, the narrator (one of the authors) read the words and did not "customize" it as an audio book. It made listening to some sections seem out of place in a book about humor - they should have lossened it up. I just thought they weren't practicing what they preached. Making work fun again Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why? Absolutely. Anyone who works in a stressful job, or just in a place that could use some lightening up. Who was your favorite character and why? Not really applicable, so I'd have to say the narrator/author, Scott Christopher, who did a wonderful job. Any additional comments? I first became aware of this book through Scott Christopher's work on the TV show Granite Flats. Always looking to improve life in the work place I purchased this title, and am glad I did. It was a fun, enjoyable read, but more importantly were the ideas and concepts. Even though I wasn't a manager I was still able to informally implement many of the suggestions as part of my team. This was especially helpful during high stress situations such as big software deployments. I should insert a disclaimer, after buying the book my wife and Mr Christopher wound up becoming internet friends. I can say that he "practices what he preaches", providing appropriate amounts of levity to the world in his private and public life. This happened though after I was able to vet his book's ideas for myself. Even if you are not a manager, I'd encourage this book if your work place is at all stressful (and let's face it, whose isn't these days). The ideas will help make your work a much more enjoyable place to be. A Humor Home Run This book is smart, fun, and funny--in that order. I found a lot to gain from the combination of well-researched data and practical ideas that the authors presented on lightening up the world of work. And having Scott Christopher narrate the book made this an almost must-HEAR version. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/The-Power-of-Proactive-Recruiting-Audiobook/B00TUFX0QM Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Title: Icarus in the Boardroom Subtitle: The Fundamental Flaws in Corporate America and Where They Came From Author: David Skeel Narrator: Paul Boehmer Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 8 mins Language: English Release date: 11-23-09 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 3 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: Americans have always loved risktakers. Like the Icarus of ancient Greek lore, however, even the most talented entrepreneurs can overstep their bounds. All too often, the very qualities that make Icaran executives special - self-confidence, visionary insight, and extreme competitiveness - spur them to take misguided and even illegal chances. Ever since the first large-scale corporations emerged in the 19th century, their ability to tap huge amounts of capital and the sheer number of lives they affect has meant that their executives play for far greater stakes. Excessive and sometimes fraudulent risks, competition, and the increasing size and complexity of organizations: these three factors have been at the heart of every corporate breakdown from 1873, when financial genius Jay Cooke collapsed, to the corporate scandals of the early 21st century. Compounding the scandals is an ongoing cat-and-mouse game between regulators' efforts to police the three factors that lead to Icarus Effect failures and efforts by corporate America to evade this regulation in the name of efficiency and flexibility.These efforts to side-step oversight can rapidly spiral out of control, setting the stage for the devastating corporate failures that punctuate American business history. But there is also a silver lining to the stunning failures: the outrage they provoke galvanizes public opinion in favor of corporate reform. The most important American business regulation has always been enacted in response to a major breakdown in corporate America. Today's business environment poses unprecedented perils for the average American as for the first time ever, more than half of Americans now own stock. Identifying the problems of the past, Skeel offers a strikingly new diagnosis of the fundamental flaws in corporate America today, and of what can be done to fix them. biacuaduc@gmail.com (David Skeel) Mon, 23 Nov 2009 09:55:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/Icarus-in-the-Boardroom-Audiobook/B0036G3EQC thebookvoice.com 08:08:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

Members Reviews: A very fine business-legal history This is a favorite genre of mine (when well done): the large-canvas history of business firms, their structure and financing, their experiments and excesses, strengths and weaknesses (and key personalities) through the challenges of time and shifting environments. Here we follow the tendency of corporate leaders in various times to take high-flying "Icaran" risks, rolling the dice on the fortunes of their companies (and of the various stakeholders), for personal glory or riches or various other motives, mixing with counter-waves of regulation trying (in ways sometimes more enlightened or effective, sometimes less) to contain this behavior. Samuel Insull, for example, was a corporate empire-builder of the 1920s, taking the novel complex tiering of utility holding companies to new risk-laden heights, prior to the whole structure collapsing around his ears, and the arrival of New Deal legislation tying utilities' hands. Another surge in creativity emerges with the roaring 1980's, well described here with Michael Milken's innovations at center stage. Similar time is spent with Enron. Such events are woven well in this book into larger historical contexts. Whether the reader agrees with the authors' biases or not, there is plenty of factual content here to chew on. The book ends with the arrival of Sarbanes-Oxley, i.e., post-2000 but before the biggest runups of the subprime fiasco and 2008. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/The-Art-and-Discipline-of-Strategic-Leadership-Audiobook/B002UZNC62 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

(P)2005 AMI Members Reviews: New Isn't Necessarily Better This is a follow-up to Tregoe and Zimmerman's original work on strategy, Top Management Strategy: What It Is and How It Works. Incredibly, the author, who is an officer with the firm of Kepner-Tregoe, only includes Ben Tregoe as "with" instead of a co-author, and manages to make a great, clean, Occam's Razor of a concept into a convoluted detour. The crisp "driving forces" of the original book have been recombined, and not with a great deal of reasoning, and long passages are created to provide some mathematical support for issues that don't need it. It seems to me that Freedman is trying to jam in something representing his contribution to the process when he really has nothing to add. His corporate examples seem arbitrary and inserted simply to try to make the appeal more international. The original book is one of the best anywhere on strategy with its clear definitions and seminal use of the "driving force." It's too bad it may no longer be widely available. This newer book is a poor successor and is remarkably ungracious to Ben Tregoe, who passed away a year or so ago, and was one of the great thinkers in this field. If you can get the original, do so. The two stars I've given this one are purely for what Freedman has retained of the original. Good book, good author. I'm a teacher becoming a Leader in Educational Organizations and this book will drive you and gave you ideas about how to mantain a positive environment and how to become a strategic no matter what institution you are leading. Great product and shipment was fast Product was as described online and shipment was fast. Do not have time to write loooooong review. Great doing business with you. Great is great. If Amazon force me to write a paper long review, I guess this is the last time I am reviewing any product from Amazon I purchased. Never received my book. The seller was nice enough to refund my $. Even with that, the 5 bucks wasn't worth the weeks waiting and the weeks I am behind in class. I still never received the book and had to order a new one. Awaiting the arrival so I can catch up on my homework. Good book, but it could have been better Strategic leadership certainly requires discipline, and it clearly is an art form. But it is not as complicated as the authors would have their readers believe. Furthermore, the 5-phase model for strategy formulation and implementation that the authors claim to have developed is not unique. It's the same model just about any entrepreneur who writes a sound business plan uses to start a new business, and entrepreneurs have been around since before the authors were born. I think the book was written adequately well, and I recommend that entrepreneurs who have read a few books on how to write a business plan read this book, too. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/The-Transactional-Manager-Audiobook/B0761XZ72C Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free. Title: The Transactional Manager Author: Abe Wagner Narrator: Joseph R. Durika Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs Language: English Release date: 10-03-17 Publisher: Abe Wagner & Associates Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Business, Management Publisher's Summary: The most difficult and lingering problems that arise within organizations do not result from lack of some commodity such as money, machinery, materials, time, ideas, or expertise. If we follow a particular problem back to its roots, we often find that it is actually a "people problem". Somewhere along the line, somebody is angry, resistant, needy, passive, unthinking, obstructive, or in pain. The problem stems from the ineffective way that this individual (or group of individuals) is dealing with feelings, conflicts, and stress. Many organizations try to solve their "people problems" by manipulating commodities (buying a new piece of equipment, putting on an extra shift, adding or dropping a product, and so on) rather than by paying attention to what is going on with the people in the organization. In short, they treat the symptom rather than the cause. If manipulating the commodities happens to make things go better for the people involved, the problem may be solved; if it doesn't, the problem will persist, or worsen, or simply take another form. Clearly, it would be more efficient to first investigate the underlying "people problem" before investing time, money, and energy in a "solution" that may or may not bring the desired results. Many of these "people problems" are quite subtle. Few subordinates are willing to be in open is agreement with their supervisors, and fewer still are overtly obstructive. Instead, people "make mistakes", "have accidents", "misunderstand", "can't", spin their wheels, waste time, get sick, fail to cooperate with one another, and so on. Supervisors often cope with stress in these same ineffective ways, and many are unwilling to confront the inappropriate behavior of their supervisees. biacuaduc@gmail.com (Abe Wagner) Tue, 03 Oct 2017 10:25:53 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/pd/Business/The-Transactional-Manager-Audiobook/B0761XZ72C thebookvoice.com 00:07:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/audiobook/560/]]> to download full audiobooks of your choice for free.

The first book outlines the specific role of the product owner and provides tips learned from real world project management experience. The second book teaches you how to develop release planning that ensures you can distribute the product. I especially like the tips and user information in both books.
