David Thorp, Director of Research and Professional Development, The Chartered Institute of Marketing "The contents of this book are at the very heart of understanding value.

Helmut Stiegler, Manager Sales & Marketing-Sales Excellence, Siemens Industry Automation Division The Challenge of Value: First you must understand your customer and what is important (valuable) to him personally and to his business in terms of the three elements of the Value Triad. Second you must understand your competition and how you are different from them on those issues that are important to the customer. Third you have to quantify the monetary and emotional value (both positive and negative) of these differentiators. Finally you have to construct a Value Proposition that clearly explains the differentiated value that your product or service brings to the customer. At the end of the day, customers will only buy your product or service if they understand the value that you offer and they feel they have a reasonable chance of receiving that value if they purchase. That's the challenge. This book will help you meet it.
Download or read book The Challenge I written by Thomas E. Mveng and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-02-11 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The advent of modernity, the requirements of development and the high level of poverty, make the struggle for life even more difficult under the tropics. It is a daily strife that goes on in a lifetime, and it is permanent. The situation is even so bad that the black continent is plying under the weight of numerous ailments made up of corruption and embezzlement of public funds; and if we had to add the systematic looting of the continents assets by the western powers, the bowl is full. We now experience a reversal of values, an abandonment of ethical and moral precepts. The degradation thus announced, sinks Africa into an endless hole and compromises its future in the long run. The race to money, material things, becomes the existing requirement. It is the survival of the fittest for poor Africa, throwing its sons in the streets, sacrificing its youth at the altar of promiscuity and vice.
Download or read book Rise to the Challenge written by Marlene M. Johnson and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2024-09-24 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiring life story of Minnesota’s first woman lieutenant governor: breaking political ground, navigating patriarchal tradition, and persevering through great personal loss Marking a milestone for women in state government, Marlene M. Johnson became Minnesota’s first woman lieutenant governor under Rudy Perpich’s gubernatorial administration in January 1983. That same year, she met her husband, Peter, and their deeply loving relationship profoundly sustained her for twenty-seven years. Rise to the Challenge weaves these personal and professional stories together in a courageous portrait of dedication and leadership. Growing up in rural Minnesota, Johnson began organizing and advocating for change early, beginning with a campaign to introduce foreign languages into her high school curriculum. Pursuing a deeply felt commitment to improving the lives of others, she continued to sharpen her leadership skills throughout her life, participating in activist work in college, cofounding organizations to support women entrepreneurs and politicians, and eventually running an international education nonprofit. A stalwart supporter, her husband gave Marlene strength and encouragement to face the challenges of the political landscape and its gender biases. Then, in 2010, he suffered a traumatic brain injury that would change both of their lives. Learning how to be a medical advocate and, eventually, facing the sorrow of Peter’s death, Marlene relied on the hard-fought resilience and belief in herself that Peter had helped her to develop. A story of learning and leadership in politics, business, and public service, Rise to the Challenge is a moving portrayal of spirit, perseverance, and grace in the face of daunting personal challenges, supported by unwavering faith in the public good.

Download or read book The Challenge of Modernizing Islam written by Christine Douglass-Williams and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The entire foreign policy and much of the domestic policy of the United States and other Western governments is based on the proposition that the vast majority of Muslims are moderate and peaceful, including those who are emigrating in large numbers to Europe and North America. But as Islamist groups and many mosques radicalize peaceful Muslims and appeal to the teachings of the Koran, Hadith, and Sunnah, it is imperative for moderates and reformists to articulate a vision of Islam and an exegesis of Islamic texts that can withstand the challenge of Islamists and the ulema who have declared the sanctity and immutability of the text. Instead, they must reestablish a firm foundation of Islam that is modernized, genuinely peaceful, tolerant, pluralistic, and compatible with secular governance, the freedom of speech, human rights, and equality. The Challenge of Modernizing Islam is the first major effort to provide that foundation. Veteran journalist Christine Douglass-Williams interviews foremost moderate and reformist Muslims in the Western world. She asks them tough questions about how they deal with problematic Koran passages, how they intend to get their message across to the Muslim world, and more. Their answers are revelatory, even in the ways in which they disagree with one another. Douglass-Williams has captured the Islamic Reformist movement in its full intellectual ferment, laying bare the tensions and triumphs of the Reformers. In the book's second half, she adds a crucial series of searingly honest and illuminating reflections on the challenges the reformers face, the chances they have of succeeding, and the implications of their struggle for the future of the Western world and of all free people. Illuminating, engaging, and thought-provoking, The Challenge of Modernizing Islam is an essential text for understanding the future of the United States and the West, and the implications of Muslim moderates' struggle for the free world.
