Business Warfare - A Framework For Business Strategy Based On Clausewitz, Sun Tzu, Foch And Machiavelli

de Paulo Cardoso do Amaral

~~13,24€~~ 11,92€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Sun Tzu provides great teachings for battleground struggles, so why do we need more authors and insights? Because Sun Tzu deals with confrontation, and that''s not enough. There are currently more factors influencing any entity''s strategic positioning than just fighting for consumers, customers, and clients-unexpected factors beyond eyesight at battleground level, like regulations and political moves unleashed by stakeholders.Enter Clausewitz, delivering a broad inclusion of the factors currently influencing business. He invites the strategist to contemplate political level actions besides war, something not so extensively covered by Sun Tzu. And the wisdom in Clausewitz''s Trinity concept is a bedrock for a solid, encompassing, and enlightened strategic appraisal well beyond traditional methodologies.The book also covers Sun Tzu''s dynamic approach to struggle, on a substratum of situational awareness, which other others tend to miss when analyzing The Art of War. Situational awareness is critical in business strategy. And Sun Tzu''s strategic vision is bottom-up-refreshing because traditional strategic planning has been primarily top-down.Then came Ferdinand Foch¾a mandatory add-on for developing Sun Tzu''s framework. It acknowledges the need to measure tactical effectiveness, otherwise, how do you choose among different tactical choices?Machiavelli pops up next. Whereas Sun Tzu deals with battle, Machiavelli specializes in what to do with victory. For businesses, that means profit. And how do you make a profit? By winning everybody''s hearts, and that is Machiavelli''s specialty.If you live in a predictable and stable competitive environment, this book is not for you. If not, and you need strategic thinking, the practical frameworks put forward will foster your insights. Paulo Cardoso do Amaral has an extensive background in engineering, information systems, and business management. In addition to his corporate roles, Paulo is an MBA Professor at CatólicaLisbon, and since 2014, he has been teaching at Bejing''s Tsinghua University and Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussées in Paris. Paulo has a deep connection with military education, having been a professor at the Portuguese Air Force Academy, the Portuguese Army Military Academy, and the Command and General Staff Officers'' Course for the three branches of the Portuguese Army.

What'S A Company For? - A Problem In Business Ethics (Or...When Socrates Met Milton Friedman)

de Alexander Pepper

~~0,95€~~ 0,86€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Is the job of a company director simply to make as much money as possible as quickly as possible for shareholders? Do businesses have obligations to employees, other stakeholders, and society as a whole? And, most pressingly of all, do they have any responsibility for the environment, for social inequality, and to sustain fair competition in a world dominated by mega-corporations? In this book, Professor Alexander ('Sandy') Pepper considers the controversial subject of corporate purpose. Drawing on ideas from philosophy, economics, law, and management studies, he critically examines competing answers to the question 'What's a Company For?'. To help answer this, Pepper imagines the conversations that might take place if 20th-century economist Milton Friedman, who famously argued for the primacy of shareholders' interests, engaged in dialogue with Socrates. The Athenian philosopher proves a playful and provocative interlocutor for questions of how a company operates ethically when faced with 21st-century questions of responsibility towards people, society, and the planet.Ultimately, through academic argument and creative philosophical dialogues, Pepper makes the case for responsible business. Building on Alasdair MacIntyre's virtue ethics, he argues that a company's purpose encompasses not just profit, but prosperity for all those who contribute to its work, particularly employees. It also has moral obligations to society in general. This book is a concise, witty, and engaging exploration of these knotty debates, and an essential read for students, researchers and even company directors looking to understand the bigger picture.

 Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Trade and Distribution, grade: 1,0, European School of Business Reutlingen (ESB), language: English, abstract: China's extremely fast growing economy has made the demand and supply of energy a crucial topic. Today, China is the largest consumer of primary energy and the third largest producer. In the years between 1978 and 2000, the Chinese economy grew by 9% while at the same time the energy demand only grew by 4%. This trend has been turned around in 2001, when growth was stable at 9%, but energy demand grew by 13% a year. While China demanded 10% of the world energy demand in 2001, supporting these demand by 96% of domestic production, in 2007 they already accounted for 15% of the worlds energy demand, making them dependent on imports for coal, oil and gas,due to domestic supply lower 90%. As a result of these movements in the domestic demand and production picture of primary energies, China will have to face growing dependencies on the international energy markets, to secure sufficient energy to industry and population. The purpose of this paper is to show the change of trade flows in China with a focus on the primary energy resource coal, oil and gas. The change of production, consumption,import and export of these as well as related topics as price and transportationwill be identified.Illustrating government involvements and economic players will complete the researchto offer a comprehensive picture.

Moves towards a liberalisation of international trade have led to the formation of large and increasingly regional trading blocks. Advantages deriving from international trade include political stability and overall growth. The three largest and best-established trading regions worldwide are NAFTA, EU and Asia-Pacific (ASEAN and APEC). Without being a member or contracting party, the European Union already participated in trade negotiations of GATT, OECD and UN and has also favoured Mercosur s process of regional integration from its very conception in 1991. Today Mercosur is the world s fourth largest single market, after the EU, the USA and Japan. Mercosur s aim to become a real common market forms the main element in the creation of an association between both regions. This book mainly concentrates on the bilateral negotiations on trade issues between the European Union and Mercosur.

Rules On Digital Trade In The Light Of World Trade Organization Agreements

~~45,65€~~ 36,52€ 20% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2023 in the subject Business economics - Trade and Distribution, , language: English, abstract: This doctoral dissertation deals with rules on digital trade in the light of WTO agreements. Digital trade has brought about profound changes in the international trade framework. Traditional trade, which primarily involved the exchange of physical goods, has now expanded to encompass a wide range of digitally delivered services, online transactions, and data flows. This transformation has been driven by advancements in technology and the increasing interconnectedness of the global economy. The digital economy encompasses various digital technologies and platforms and has become a significant driver of economic growth and innovation. It allows businesses to reach international markets more quickly and efficiently, transcending geographical barriers. The internet, mobile devices, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence have facilitated this digital transformation. These technologies enable seamless communication, data storage and processing, automation, and personalised services, revolutionising how businesses operate and engage in international trade. Digital trade has created new opportunities for businesses of all sizes. Small and medium-sized enterprises have benefited from the ability to access global markets through digital platforms and e-commerce. These platforms provide a means for Small and medium-sized enterprises to connect with potential customers worldwide, establish their presence, and market their products and services without needing a physical presence in foreign markets. This has lowered entry barriers and empowered Small and medium-sized enterprises to participate in global value chains, expanding their reach and contributing to economic growth. One of the notable developments in the digital trade era is the rise of platform-based businesses. These platforms, such as e-commerce marketplaces, ride-sharing services, and online payment systems, act as intermediaries connecting buyers and sellers across borders. They facilitate transactions, provide infrastructure and services, and enable businesses to expand their customer base globally. Platforms have become influential players in international trade, shaping market dynamics and redefining traditional trading system.

 Bachelor Thesis from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Trade and Distribution, , course: Bachelor of Business (Honours) in Global Supply Chain Management, language: English, abstract: This study aims to scrutinize the extent of the repercussions of Brexit coupled with the compounded effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Irish cheese sector, a segment profoundly intertwined with the UK market. The investigation sheds light on the challenges and upheavals faced by the sector amidst a time of political and health crises, with a particular focus on the immediate responses and adaptations of the stakeholders in this sector. In 2016, a majority of British citizens, through a referendum, decided to exit the EU single market a move prophesied by many as a "lose-lose" situation for both the EU and the United Kingdom (UK). Especially impacted is the Republic of Ireland, which remained in the EU, owing to its historical connections, geographical proximity, and significant economic exposure to the UK market. This study narrows down its focus on the Irish cheese sector, which heavily relies on the UK market, being the primary export market for products such as cheese. Utilizing a cross-sectional survey methodology, quantitative data were gathered from stakeholders in the Irish cheese sector to pinpoint the impacts of Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic on the market. An online questionnaire was disseminated to 15 respondents to garner deeper insights into the current market landscape.

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Master's Thesis from the year 2022 in the subject Business economics - Trade and Distribution, grade: 1,3, European School of Business Reutlingen, language: English, abstract: In addition to an overview of the most relevant trends and the most promising digital methods as well as tools for sales, this master thesis will provide insights into the practical aspects of Digital Sales. A particular focus will be placed on the relevance and influence of Digital Leadership in the context of necessary change management regarding the digitalization of sales. Across all industries, digitalization leads to sustainable structural changes for companies of all sizes. New business models are emerging, existing business models are changing fundamentally or are even disappearing altogether. Hardly any business area is spared from disruptive change. Therefore, also customer management and sales constantly face new challenges and opportunities. Familiar processes and methods have to be reassessed radically to ensure ongoing success. Companies have to learn to adapt their customer management to changing requirements. They cannot hope that customers will continue to move towards providers as they have in the past. This has profound consequences for sales. Existing processes have to change, salespeople have to adapt their skills and competencies to shifting customer expectations, and organizations have to review their structures. Companies that do not address the digital market changes today will not survive in the future. In contrast to U.S.-based companies, German companies have been hesitant to deal with the digitalization of sales so far. Business was excellent and sales were continuously successful. Thus, there was little need to change the status quo, especially in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). However, the COVID-19 pandemic abruptly changed business life. The entire sales cycle suddenly needed a redesign, from customer acquisition to customer service. Ultimately, the pandemic began to change sales processes in German SMEs, and with that, also the mindset towards the digitalization of sales. Nevertheless, companies are still struggling to change. The vast number of options for optimizing sales processes seems unlimited. Which sales processes should companies digitize, and which should stay as they are? Which aspects are critical to the success of effective sales management? Who should be the initiator and motivator for digitalization measures in sales? Moreover, are the necessary skills and competencies even available?

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Essay from the year 2022 in the subject Business economics - Trade and Distribution, grade: 2,3, University of Mannheim (Chair of Sustainability), course: Business and Human Rights, language: English, abstract: This essay explores the question of how digital technologies can help to solve human rights abuses in the coffee supply chain. First, a brief outline of the coffee supply chain is given as an example. Then, in a second section, the prevailing problems and hurdles in coffee production are illustrated. The third section then looks at possible solutions. Besides a brief mention of the new German supply chain law, blockchain technology is presented as a possibility for a more sustainable supply chain in the view of a human right perspective. In conclusion, the final chapter draws upon the entire topic and summarizes the discussed points. Coffee is one of the most consumed beverages in the world and is considered one of the most important goods in world trade. Thereby, coffee is one of the most traded commodities after oil. Every year, around 168 million bags of green coffee are harvested and sold worldwide. According to estimates, there are about 12.5 million coffee plantations worldwide. A total of about 25 million people are involved in coffee cultivation, processing and trade. 74 percent of the coffee grown worldwide is exported. The largest exporter of green coffee is Brazil with a market share of 40 percent. The coffee industry is worth 200 billion dollars. However, only less than 10 percent of the money remains in the producing countries. As the coffee industry is one of the so-called buyer-driven businesses, the difference in distribution is very strong. Smallholder farmers in particular have a small share and face particular challenges. But how can these inequalities be adjusted? How can the supply chain be made sustainable and fair?

 Seminar paper from the year 2022 in the subject Business economics - Trade and Distribution, grade: 1,3, Reutlingen University (Fakultat Textil & Design), course: Fashion Business Seminar, language: English, abstract: Due to digitalization, the growth of digital business models, and the ongoing rise of e-commerce in recent years, stationary fashion stores face enormous challenges. In this context, the concept of so-called 'Smart Digital Stores' is seen as one promising way to breathe new life into traditional clothing retail. By implementing new smart and digital tools into stationery shopping surroundings, fashion retailers could be enabled to create 'new' and unique shopping experiences to - in fact - keep contact with pure and part online competitors. First, this paper tries to examine the concept of Smart Digital Fashion Stores by exploring the most promising digital initiatives as well as their key benefits and risks. In the second step, the opportunities for brick-and-mortar fashion retailers especially given by so-called Smart Mirror Technologies will be investigated. In contrast to research works done to date which predominantly focused on chances due to digital tools in general respectively for the retailer, this paper pays attention to the customer site. The aim is to explore possible benefits as well as risks of digital features for the customer at the Point of Sale.
