Only the Paranoid Survive - How to Exploit the Crisis Points that Challenge Every Company and Career (Paperback, Main): Andrew... Only the Paranoid Survive - How to Exploit the Crisis Points that Challenge Every Company and Career (Paperback, Main)
Andrew Grove
R277 Discovery Miles 2 770 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

'This book is about one super-important concept. You must learn about 'Strategic Inflection Points', because sooner or later you are going to live through one.' - Steve Jobs There are moments in any business when massive change occurs, when all the rules shift fast and forever. They can make or break companies and individuals, and they can happen at any moment. Andrew Grove calls such moments strategic inflection points, and he lived through several as CEO of Intel, where he transformed the company into the world's largest computer chipmaker, and the 7th most profitable company in the Fortune 500. Drawing on decades of personal experience and insight, as well as examining timeless examples from other companies, Grove reveals how to identify and exploit the key moments of change that generate either drastic failure or incredible success. Only the Paranoid Survive is a classic lesson in leadership that anyone in any industry will benefit from. Because we must all assume that something will change - and soon.

Supporting Women's Career Advancement - Challenges and Opportunities (Hardcover): Ronald J. Burke, Mary C. Mattis Supporting Women's Career Advancement - Challenges and Opportunities (Hardcover)
Ronald J. Burke, Mary C. Mattis
R3,702 Discovery Miles 37 020 Out of stock

This book documents the progress that managerial and professional women have made in advancing their careers, and the challenges and opportunities that remain. In the context of increasing numbers of women entering the workplace and indeed pursuing professional and managerial careers, it examines why so few women occupy the top positions in corporations. The editors maintain that whilst the benefits of employing women in executive roles is now being recognised, and efforts are being made to ensure career advancement, female employees do still face a struggle against male bias and the proverbial 'glass ceiling'. In order to build upon the progress that has been made, the book advocates more successful role models for women, an increased commitment from corporations to look at the opportunities for leadership that women present, and extended research into the strengths and failings of organisations in this regard. A broad range of issues are explored, including ongoing challenges of work-family integration, perceptions of gender, leadership and career development, the ethics of office romances, and women at mid-life. Best practices for supporting women's career advancement are then illustrated using the efforts of award wining companies as case studies. The cutting-edge contributions to this book provide an outstanding review of the literature. As such, it will be invaluable to both academics and practitioners with an interest in business, management and human resources.

2,000+ Quotes about Money & Finance (Paperback): Dawn D. Boyer 2,000+ Quotes about Money & Finance (Paperback)
Dawn D. Boyer
R344 Discovery Miles 3 440 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Money, Finance, Bartering, Power, Survival... Most people in the world need money to survive; others need it for attainment of power; yet others think of it as a bane of their existence. There are the 99%'ers and the 1%'ers, and each has different ways of looking at money; the attainment and achievement of that money and what it means to them in their lives. There are those who feel money is so important they consider suicide if they lose it; and there are those who can't give it away fast enough to help others in dire straits. If you live in a society run by a monetary-based economy, you can't avoid it; if you live on a deserted island with a few other folks - barter becomes the money, and again - you realize you can't not have some means to represent your worth and your ability to survive. So you might as well develop a good attitude about money, let it work for you so you don't have to work so hard for it, and save for your future well-being. Enjoy these quotes - and definitely go forth and prosper

Daniel J. Svyantek, Kevin T. Mahoney
R2,969 Discovery Miles 29 690 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

This volume in the Research in Organizational Sciences series is entitled Received Wisdom, Kernels of Truth and Boundary Conditions in Organizational Studies. Received wisdom is knowledge imparted to people by others and is based on authority and tenacity as sources of human knowledge. Authority refers to the acceptance of knowledge as truth because of the position and credibility of the knowledge source. Tenacity refers to the continued presentation of a particular bit of information by a source until this bit of information is accepted as true by receivers. The problem for organisational studies, however, is that this received wisdom often becomes unquestioned assumptions which guide interpretation of the world and decisions made about the world. Received wisdom, therefore, may lead to organisational practices which provide little or no benefit to the organisation and, potentially, negative organisational effects, because this received wisdom is no longer valid. The 14 papers in this volume all, in some way, strive to question received wisdom and present alternatives which expand our understanding of organisational behaviour in some way. The chapters in this volume each strive to present new ways of understanding organisational constructs, and in so doing reveal how received wisdom has often led to confirmation bias in organisational science. The knowledge that some perceived truths are actually the products of received wisdom and do not stand up to close scrutiny shakes up things within research areas previously thought settled allowing new perspectives on organisational science to emerge.
