Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s no secret that Corporate America continuously experiences change. Everything from company values to the technology and processes that sales teams use are at risk to undergo rapid changes. Unfortunately for today’s businesses, they have strayed from the basics that once made companies great, things like relationship-building, accountability, and customer service. Companies have transitioned from being revenue-driven to cost-driven and now to data and data analytics driven. An obsession with data has allowed executives and managers to lose sight of the big picture — long-term customer success and loyalty — and focus on minute details that are easy to correct and control but might not impact overall sales and success. This has made it increasingly difficult for companies to establish brand awareness and maintain any kind of growth and sustainability. Low-Tech Guy in a High-Tech World: Managing People, Sales, and Business in Today’s Corporate Environment stresses the back-to-basics approach in management that enabled companies to grow in the past and emphasizes how badly we need it in today’s corporate climate. Using his experience as a sales management leader for over 30 years, author Stephen Rubbico takes an insightful look at current business practices. This book is a must-read for managers of all levels and experience, not to mention key executives at companies who are intent on not only surviving Corporate America but on thriving

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drugs, Lies and Family Ties New York Drug Dealer Fights to Clear His Name in New Original Screenplay NEW YORK – A not-so-innocent but kind-hearted bi-sexual drug dealer in New York fights to clear his name in Lawrence J. Corneck’s thrill-a-minute screenplay, Big Cigar, small d**k (now available through AuthorHouse). Dick “Scarlet” Scarlet may be a drug dealer, but he’s no murderer. When a party girl, earlier supplied with drugs by Scarlet, collapses and dies in the bathroom at a party after date rape drugs are slipped into her drink, two spoiled sons of wealthy wheeler-dealers, Lyle and Kyle, are responsible. They beat Scarlet up and frame him for the crime. Scarlet is in deep trouble. Then his older brother, Dick “Scar” Scarlet, gets involved. Scar is a powerful drug dealer and knows that his brother’s messy trial will be bad for business. Against Scarlet’s wishes, Scar decides to murder all of the witnesses to avoid a trial. One by one, the witnesses start to disappear. One would not want to meet Scar in a dark alley. Meanwhile, Lyle and Kyle’s fathers, Lance and Vance, rush to the aid of their sons (to increase their own business interests, of course). Both powerful and ego-driven, they inevitably turn on each other. Things become more complicated for Scarlet when he befriends Maria, a friend of his and the dead party girl. Maria is crippled from an accident and homeless. Scar wants to use her in a ploy to lure young people into drug addiction. Scarlet hides her from his brother and attempts to keep her safe. This thrilling story of greed, corruption and betrayal will keep readers glued to its pages. Lance and Scar, each sure of himself and of ultimate victory, face off in a shocking conclusion. Maria’s potential involvement in Scar’s drug dealings eventually leads to a standoff between Scarlet and his violent brother. Will Scarlet finally find the courage to stand up to his brother and clear his name on his own terms? Born and raised in New York, Corneck continues to love living in the Big Apple. His first book, Existential Hell: A Screenplay Trilogy (also available through AuthorHouse), a companion to Big Cigar, small d**k, was published in 2005.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " "Computerization movement" (CM) refers to a special kind of social and technological movement that promotes the adoption of computing within organizations and society. ... Through theoretical analyses, systematic empirical studies, field-based studies, and case studies of specific technologies, the book shows CMs to be driven by Utopian visions of technology that become part of the "ether" within society. The empirical studies presented here show the need for designers, users, and the media to be aware that CM rhetoric can propose grand visions that never become part of a reality and reinforce the need for critical and scholarly review of promising new technologies."--Back cover.

Download or read book The Age of Low Tech written by Bihouix, Philippe and published by Bristol University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-21 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People often believe that we can overcome the profound environmental and climate crises we face by smart systems, green innovations and more recycling. However, the quest for complex technological solutions, which rely on increasingly exotic and scarce materials, makes this unlikely. A best-seller in France, this English language edition introduces readers to an alternative perspective on how we should be marshalling our resources to preserve the planet and secure our future. Bihouix skilfully goes against the grain to argue that ‘high’ technology will not solve global problems and envisages a different approach to build a more resilient and sustainable society.

Download or read book Science and Religion in a Post Colonial World written by Zainal Abidin Bagir and published by ATF Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses selected issues in the emerging field of science and religion, and at the same time acknowledges the situation of Indonesia (or, more generally, a "Third World" country) as the locus for this discussion. The book is concerned with how various world religions, in particular Islam and Christianity respond to shared challenges posed by science, as new theories in cosmology, physics, and the life sciences have brought challenges to many traditional religious ideas. There are also more generally epistemological challenges that reflect the recent success of natural science as a mode of inquiry. These are felt as problems in both the Western and non-Western worlds, but with an important difference. While the Western world is considered the "legitimate owner" of modern science, some in the Muslim world, and the Third World more generally, see modern science as a cultural alien imposed on them, due to its initial introduction in the colonial period.

Download or read book Conservation Genetics in the Age of Genomics written by George Amato and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-26 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genome sequencing enables scientists to study genes over time and to test the genetic variability of any form of life, from bacteria to mammals. Thanks to advances in molecular genetics, scientists can now determine an animal's degree of inbreeding or compare genetic variation of a captive species to wild or natural populations. Mapping an organism's genetic makeup recasts such terms as biodiversity and species and enables the conservation of rare or threatened species, populations, and genes. By introducing a new paradigm for studying and preserving life at a variety of levels, genomics offers solutions to previously intractable problems in understanding the biology of complex organisms and creates new tools for preserving the patterns and processes of life on this planet. Featuring a number of high-profile researchers, this volume introduces the use of molecular genetics in conservation biology and provides a historical perspective on the opportunities and challenges presented by new technologies. It discusses zoo-, museum-, and herbarium-based biological collections, which have expanded over the past decade, and covers the promises and problems of genomic and reproductive technology. The collection concludes with the philosophical and legal issues of conservation genetics and their potential effects on public policy.

Download or read book Stadium Status written by John Brubaker and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-03-03 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business as usual is ancient history. Large corporations, small businesses, entrepreneurs, and even CEOs and politicians must make the move from simply selling a product or service to delivering a mind-blowing customer experience. They have to learn to play at the level athletes and entertainers call stadium status. Stadium status is that elusive place every coach, athlete, entertainer, and performer strives to reach. It’s moving from being an opening act to the headliner, from performing on a small stage to the greatest stage in the largest venue possible: a sold out stadium. Everything starts from humble beginnings; talent and work ethic might get you in the game, but stadium status takes strategy – and that starts with a vision. John Brubaker shares his personal experiences as a successful radio personality, coach, and executive consultant, and reveals the strategies employed by country musicians, teams, and brands to build their fan base and separate themselves from the competition. He explains exactly how readers can implement these same tactics to achieve better results in their own endeavors. Stadium Status’ real-world examples demonstrate that gaining a fresh perspective and applying ideas from outside your industry are what will truly elevate your performance.
