Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The stories of the people captured on the pages within are anything but ordinary. Like you, they had to start somewhere. But it's not what you do or where you start, but how you do it. It wasn't through maintaining the daily grind (for themselves or others) that got them to the top. It was by building their dreams and doing business in a way that no other had done before them. These Dream Merchants and Howboys live in the Business Icon Hall of Fame in the Sky (ok so maybe one day this will exist). But before they got there they lived somewhere very different. They lived in the land of complete Nutterdom. Retired CEO of Burger King and Fortune turn-around champion, Barry Gibbons, introduces you to this world. Gibbons brings together some of the most famous names in business today. He takes us on a whirlwind tour of the careers, lives and crazy decisions of nutters - from Walt Disney and Michael Dell to Luciano Benetton and Anita Roddick. All of them made decisions that seemed odd, crazy or downright weird. But they worked. Gibbons, a distinguished madman himself, keeps you hooked with his humour and wit, but never straying from the point of it all. That we can learn from these mavericks. That we can put a little madness into our daily grind. Heck yeh. Steal their ideas! Why should they be famous and not you Dream Merchants and Howboys may just be the most unconventional business book ever written and firmly cements Gibbons' reputation as the P.J. O'Rourke of business.; Howard Schultz, Chairman und Chief Global Strategist der amerikanischen Kaffeekette Starbucks gibt Rechtanwälten eine Kapitalspritze; der britische Tycoon Richard Branson fliegt mit seinem Heißluftballon rund um die Welt; Herb Keller, CEO von Southwest Airlines, mietet das Dallas Stadium, um einen Prozess aussergerichtlich beizulegen, indem er seinen Konkurrenten zum Armdrücken herausfordert; Ben Cohen und Jerry Greenfield gründen eine Speiseeisfabrik als Mittel für soziale Zwecke; Barry Gibbons spaziert bei Burger King herein und glaubt es sei ganz normal und in Ordnung, sich mit McDonalds anzulegen. Die sind doch verrückt, alle miteinander! Aber - sie sind auch erfolgreich, und zwar verdammt erfolgreich! Autor Barry Gibbons, der legendäre CEO und Retter von Burger King, untersucht hier, welche Rolle gesteuerte und weniger gesteuerte Verrücktheit für den Geschäftserfolg spielt. Er erzählt atemberaubende Geschichten über die Karriere, das Leben und die verrückten Entscheidungen von 'Spinnern' wie Walt Disney, Michael Dell, Luciano Benneton und Malcolm Forbes - um nur einige zu nennen. Sie alle haben eines gemeinsam: Sie haben Entscheidungen getroffen, die eigenartig, verrückt oder geradezu unheimlich schienen. Aber sie waren richtig! Gibbons zeigt hier, was einen 'Spinner' ausmacht, und was wir von ihm lernen können. 'Dream Merchants and Howboys' ist die wohl ungewöhnlichste und unkonventionellste Business-Lektüre aller Zeiten: respektlos, bissig und witzig. Ein Lesevergnügen der besonderen Art.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Siblings and all the lateral relationships that follow from them are clearly important and their interaction is widely observed, particularly in creative literature. Yet in the social, psychological and political sciences, there is no theoretical paradigm through which we might understand them. In the Western world our thought is completely dominated by a vertical model, by patterns of descent or ascent: mother or father to child, or child to parent. Yet our ideals are liberty, equality and fraternity or the sisterhood of feminism; our ethnic wars are the violence of fratricide .When we grow up, siblings feature prominently in sex, violence and the construction of gender differences but they are absent from our theories. This book examines the reasons for this omission and begins the search for a new paradigm based on siblings and lateral relationships.This book will be essential reading for those studying sociology, psychoanalysis and gender studies. It will also appeal to a wide general readership.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'I'd say you were a carnival barker, except that wouldn't be fair tocarnival barkers. A carnie will at least tell you up front that he's running a shell game. You, Mr. Lay, were running what purported to be the seventh largest corporation in America.'-Senator Peter Fitzgerald (R-IL) to Enron CEO Kenneth Lay, Senate Commerce Science & Transportation's Subcommittee, Hearing on Enron, 2/12/02The speed of Enron's rise and fall is truly astonishing and perhaps the single most important story of corporate failure in the twenty-first century. In Enron investigative journalist Loren Fox promises readers nothing short of the most compelling and insightful investigation into Enron's meteoric ascent-regarded by Wall Street and the media as the epitome of innovation-and its spectacular fall from grace. In a lively and authoritative manner, Fox discusses how the biggest corporate bankruptcy in American business history happened, why for so long no one (except for an enlightened few) saw it coming, and what its impact will be on financial markets, the U.S. economy, U.S. energy policy, and the public for years to come. With access to many company insiders, Fox's intriguing account of this corporate debacle also provides an overview of the corporate culture and business model that led to Enron's high-flying success and disastrous failure.

Rife with all the elements of a classic thriller-scandal, dishonest accounting, personal greed, questionable campaign contributions, suicide-Enron captures the essence of a company that went too far too fast.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Like its predecessor, the second edition of Politics as Usual, treats the decade and a half after World War II as a discrete historical era, the end of which represents a watershed in the political life of the nation. Despite the pressures created by the Cold War and the challenges posed by developing nations, American politics from 1945 to 1960 reflects a relatively stable equilibrium. Although from different political parties, Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower shared a basic caution in fiscal affairs and an acceptance of the global responsibilities thrust on the United States after the war. Meanwhile, Democrats and Republicans continued to contest elections along the familiar fault lines formed during the New Deal, and the American electorate divided its loyalties relatively evenly between the two major parties. Since 1988, when the first edition of Politics as Usual appeared, much has happened to affect our perspective on American political life during the Truman-Eisenhower years. Of greatest importance, the end of the Cold War and the subsequent opening of significant new sources from 'the other side' allow us to see through a different prism the decisions and stances taken by American presidents and policymakers. In addition to considering the impact of the new-and newly informed-historical literature, Reichard gives more attention to the challenges posed by the formation of Israel, the rise of Arab nationalism in the 1940s and 1950s, the Korean War, the early stages of United States involvement in Vietnam, and CIA operations. This second edition also features a new photographic essay.…
