In this title, Doc Searls maps out the implications of acustomer-driven business revolution that's flipping the paradigm ofsupply and demand, and putting consumers in charge. Who owns themarketplace? Is it business - or the customer? According to DocSearls, widely-read journalist and blogger and co-author of "TheCluetrain Manifesto", customers are on the verge of becoming trulyfree and independent actors in the marketplace with the power oftelling vendors what they want, how they want it, and where andwhen they should be able to get it. This imperative shift incustomer power will alter the balance of the market and usher inwhat Searls calls the "intention economy". In this book, Searlslays out a map for an economy driven by consumer intent, wherevendors can - and must - respond to the actual intentions ofcustomers, instead of simply vying for customer attention in hopesof selling them what they might want. In the intention economy,individual power increases, demand drives supply, and informationprecedes mone
As management professor and consultant Kathleen Reardonexplains in her new book, It's All Politics, talent and hard workalone will not get you to the top. What separates the winners fromthe losers in corporate life is politics. As Reardon explains, the most talented and accomplished employeesoften take a backseat to their politically adept coworkers, losingground in the race to get ahead—sometimes even losing their jobs.Why? Because they’ve failed to manage the important relationshipswith the people who can best reward their creativity andintelligence. To determine whether you need a crash course inOffice Politics 101, ask yourself the following questions: ? Do I get credit for my ideas? ? Do I know how to deal with a difficult colleague? ? Do I get the plum assignments? ? Do I have a mentor? ? Do I say no gracefully and pick my battles wisely? ? Am I in the loop? Reardon has interviewed hundreds of employees, from successfulveterans to aspiring hopef
A compelling vision. Bold leadership. Decisive action.Unfortunately, these prerequisites of success are almost always theingredients of failure, too. In fact, most managers seeking tomaximize their chances for glory are often unwittingly settingthemselves up for ruin. The sad truth is that most companies haveleft their futures almost entirely to chance, and don’t evenrealize it. The reason? Managers feel they must make choices withfar-reaching consequences today, but must base those choices onassumptions about a future they cannot predict. It is thiscollision between commitment and uncertainty that creates THESTRATEGY PARADOX. This paradox sets up a ubiquitous but little-understood tradeoff.Because managers feel they must base their strategies onassumptions about an unknown future, the more ambitious of themhope their guesses will be right – or that they can somehow adaptto the turbulence that will arise. In fact, only a small number oflucky daredevils prosper, while many more unfortunate, bu
