by James Macaulay, Jeff Loucks e Michael Wade

13,18€ + 10% CARD

 WINNER OF THE 2017 AXIOM BEST BUSINESS BOOK AWARD"Digital disruption" sounds like another business buzzword—until it happens to your company. Seemingly out of nowhere, startups and other tech-savvy disruptors attack. Your customers bolt for the door and revenues stall. Senior executives ignore the problem, or turn to yesterday’s management playbook. In months instead of years, you’ve gone from market leader to also-ran. This scenario is beginning to play out in every industry. Everything that can be digitized—from products and services to the entire value chain—is being digitized, to the advantage of companies that can harness disruption. Unfortunately, few companies are building the organizational capabilities and strategic responses to compete in this stark new reality. In Digital Vortex, you will learn how to use the business models and strategies of startups to your own advantage. Instead of waiting to be disrupted, you can maximize the value of your existing businesses and move into profitable new ones. Most importantly, you will learn how to build the agility to anticipate threats, sense opportunities, and seize them before your rivals do. In today’s world there are two paths: navigating to a new digital future, or being engulfed by exponential competitive change. With recommendations backed by research with thousands of senior executives from market leaders and startups alike, this book gives you a compass to chart your own course—to compete with disruptors and win.

Beyond Leadership - English Edition

by Matthias Molleney e Sybille Sachs

28,99€ + 10% CARD

 The more challenging the times, the more crucial strong and effective leadership becomes. Beyond Leadership''s consistently people-oriented approach fosters trust, respect and appreciation within an organization — and has already proven its effectiveness in hundreds of real-world applications.Most traditional leadership concepts focus primarily on the relationship between superiors and employees. However, in modern, flexible, and hybrid organizations, leadership goes beyond that. Success and agility can only be achieved when all team members are both willing and able to cooperate. Current leadership research supports this shift, emphasizing key concepts such as psychological safety and multidimensional followership. Alongside the theoretical foundations, this book provides a clear, step-by-step guide to applying this leadership approach in practice. With numerous examples, it offers hands-on strategies that make it a true workbook in every sense.«Beyond Leadership» is intended for executives at all levels and in all sectors, specialists in organisational and personnel development and those responsible for shaping leadership work in associations and other part-time public service organizationsContent: Introduction: Cooperation instead of hierarchy The model of the Beyond Leadership Activation Circle: Structure and functionalitiy The steps: - Check-in: Focus on the main topic - Connect: Get to know each other at the highest level - Align: Align to a common identity - Imagine: Developing sustainable solutions together - Commit: The step towards implementation quality - Debriefing: The decisive consolidation - Check-out: The summarizing reflection The sustainability of Beyond Leadership: Beyond Culture Further application possibilities
Trust - The Best Way To Manage

by Reinhard K. Sprenger

31,99€ + 10% CARD

 In business, nothing is more important than trust. No company can prosper without trust between management and employees, among colleagues and partners, and between the organization and the outside world. Trust is the strongest foundation for customer loyalty, staff motivation and market confidence. This book brings trust out of the realm of ideals and the reveals that it isn't just a virtue, but an economic necessity, especially for a company operating in today's turbulent markets. The author explodes a number of dangerous myths about trust: that it is no more than a feel-good factor, that it has to be earned, and that trust is fine but control is better. He shows that the mistrust prevalent in many corporations can incur huge commercial costs, and explains the quickest and most direct ways for a company to win trust. Reinhard Sprenger is a passionate advocate of putting trust into action in the way companies are run. As he shows management rhetoric is one thing; genuine, deep-seated and widespread trust quite another. In the end, real trust will do more for a company's security than any security measure, exert control more effectively than any control system, and create more value than any value-creation programme.

The Book Of Dangerous Words In Management

by Fredmund Malik

29,99€ + 10% CARD

 Disruption? New Work? Agility? Executives are supposed to be charismatic and visionary while staff are expected to be motivated and enthusiastic. Such talk comes easily – and indeed incessantly – to managers. But how much to these all-too-familiar clichés really have to tell us?

His new book cuts through the babble and makes a stand for clear thinking and straight talking. »Not only skeptics will find Malik a pleasure to read. He is skilled at picking apart the fashionable verbiage of management with often sarcastic glee.« Süddeutsche Zeitung (Munich)

Empire Of Ai - Inside The Reckless Race For Total Domination

by Karen Hao

10,99€ + 10% CARD

 When longtime AI expert and journalist Karen Hao first began covering OpenAI in 2019, she thought they were the good guys. Founded as a nonprofit with safety enshrined as its core mission, it was meant, its leader Sam Altman told us, to act as a check against more purely market forces. But the core truth of this massively disruptive sector is that it requires an unprecedented amount of proprietary resources: the ‘compute’ power of scarce high-end chips, the sheer volume of data that needs to be amassed at scale, the humans on the ground ‘cleaning it up’ for sweatshop wages throughout the Global South, and a truly alarming spike in the need for energy and water underlying everything. We have entered a new, ominous age of empire with OpenAI setting a breakneck pace, as a small group of the most valuable companies in human history try to chase it down. In exhilarating prose and with unparalleled access to those closest to Sam Altman, Hao recounts the meteoric rise of OpenAI and shows us the sinister impact that this industry is having on society.
