Never
Bet the Farm Anthony L. Iaquinto and Stephen Spinelli Jr.
Entrepreneur: Be prepared. Never
Bet the Farm celebrates entrepreneurship in its entirety,
presenting a framework that can help entrepreneurs reduce risks and
simplify decision-making. It is at once both encouraging and
cautionary, but neither a textbook how-to nor an inspirational tome
lacking substance. “We’re living in a world with unimaginable
adversity and invisible threats,” writes Iaquinto. “Why should
entrepreneurs be any different from a Boy Scout following his motto,
‘Be prepared?’” |
The
Art of the Start Guy Kawasaki Kawasaki writes that his goal is to
help you use your knowledge, love and determination to create
something great without getting bogged down in theory and
unnecessary details. At Apple in the 1980s, Kawasaki turned ordinary
consumers into evangelists. As founder and CEO of Garage Technology
Ventures, he has field-tested his ideas with dozens of newly hatched
companies. He takes you through every phase of creating a business,
from the very basics of raising money and designing a business model
through eventually giving back to society. |
Small
Giants Bo Burlingham Most books about successful
businesses focus on public companies. But Inc. magazine Editor Bo
Burlingham focuses on privately held companies marching to the beat
of a different drum. In Small Giants, he profiles 14 of the best,
including Anchor Brewing, CitiStorage, Clif Bar Inc., Righteous Babe
Records, Reel Precision Manufacturing and Zingerman’s Community of
Businesses. Burlingham takes readers inside these companies to
determine the elusive “mojo” that makes them great. |
Hoover's Vision Gary Hoover Gary Hoover, the founder of
BOOKSTOP, Inc. and Hoover’s Inc., lays out a plan that can turn an
enterprise into a success by showing entrepreneurs how to address
inputs with an open mind, and see more than what others envision.
Demonstrating how leaders can recognize the importance of history
and trends, Hoover drives business owners to create and feed a clear
and consistent vision, and helps them find the essential qualities
of entrepreneurial leadership. |
Small
Business Turnaround Marc Kramer What do you do when sales start
lagging, key employees start leaving, and customers start bolting to
the competition? Consultant Kramer offers a step-by-step manual for
turning around your small business — from writing updated business,
marketing and operating plans to cutting costs, boosting sales and
getting vendors and creditors on your side. |
The
Nokia Revolution Dan Steinbock How did a small pulp mill in
Finland become the leading worldwide force in cellular and mobile
telephone technology? The Nokia Corp. gained and maintains its
position at the head of this rapidly changing technology field using
strategic intent, global focus, strategic market-making, global
research and development, and a focus on people. |
How
Customers Think Gerald Zaltman Why do 80 percent of new products
fail despite the best efforts of market researchers -- through
techniques such as focus groups and market surveys -- to predict
what customers want. Customer behavior toward products and brands is
often driven by the unconscious, rather than the conscious. Zaltman
explains how the brains, minds, and memories of consumers work, and
how marketers can effectively leverage that information in their
strategies. |
Never
Eat Alone Keith Ferrazzi Lays out the specific steps — and
inner mind-set — he uses to reach out to connect with the thousands
of colleagues, friends and associates on his Rolodex, and shows
readers how to connect with the people they want to know. His advice
covers topics such as handling rejection, getting past gatekeepers,
becoming a “conference commando,” as well as the timeless strategies
that separate desperate glad-handers from genuine relationship
builders. |
The
Speed of Trust Stephen M. R. Covey According to Covey, trust is one of
the essential elements of business, and the ability to create,
preserve and restore trust has become one of the most important
skills today, inside and outside the office. In The Speed of Trust,
Covey gives his readers all the key tools to cultivating trust in
their relationships, while offering up the wisdom of other great
leaders on the topic. |
Mastering Business Negotiation Roy J. Lewicki & Alexander
Hiam A valuable resource for any leader
or manager who needs practical strategies when conducting business
negotiations. Lewicki and Hiam assert that the basic skills and
techniques of what they call “the master negotiator” are essential
for resolving conflicts, handling difficult conversations and
managing good business deals. |
