Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of an Emergency For the general reader to follow this story fully it may be well to call attention to a fact but little understood by the world at large, namely, that the Society which moves in our midst (numerically at almost a standstill as shown by the last religious census, but never more forcible than to-day in its known adherence to first principles the Society of Friends, so often spoken of as the Quakers, claims to do its part to purify commercial life by devoting a certain proportion of its members to all legitimate trades. Comparatively recently the Society announced amongst themselves that certain branches of business needed very special support, and an appeal was made to young men, some with university training, choosing their life-work to devote their powers and energies in the direction specified, and with marvellous results. England owes far more than is usually known to the Quaker Firms whose care - physical, moral and spiritual - of their employés forms a splendid example in our midst, an example which, if followed generally, would go far to settle the nation's problems so associated with' overcrowding and underpaying.

Download or read book Business Adventures written by John Brooks and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2015-05-14 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The best business book I've ever read.' Bill Gates, Wall Street Journal 'The Michael Lewis of his day.' New York Times What do the $350 million Ford Motor Company disaster known as the Edsel, the fast and incredible rise of Xerox, and the unbelievable scandals at General Electric and Texas Gulf Sulphur have in common? Each is an example of how an iconic company was defined by a particular moment of fame or notoriety. These notable and fascinating accounts are as relevant today to understanding the intricacies of corporate life as they were when the events happened. Stories about Wall Street are infused with drama and adventure and reveal the machinations and volatile nature of the world of finance. John Brooks's insightful reportage is so full of personality and critical detail that whether he is looking at the astounding market crash of 1962, the collapse of a well-known brokerage firm, or the bold attempt by American bankers to save the British pound, one gets the sense that history really does repeat itself. This business classic written by longtime New Yorker contributor John Brooks is an insightful and engaging look into corporate and financial life in America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kite Trust (a Romance of Wealth) On the 29th day of February at three o'clock A.M. Micky Flynn was born in Hamilton, Hamilton County, O., and as it was generally considered a good State to come from he did not offer the slightest objection. Later he lived in the village of Utica, near Pittsburg, Pa., where he learned to swim, swear, swop, and swagger to the same degree of proficiency that was customary with the small boy of that locality. He went to the public school, and was at the foot of his class in geography, spelling, and reading, but when it came to arithmetic he was the first boy in the room. He did not see the use of history or any study excepting figures, and his teacher could not hammer other things into his head. Micky's father was baptized Patrick, and Pat Flynn was known as a pretty hard character; but he was a good worker and had a steady job as a track hand on the railroad.

Download or read book The Business Romantic written by Tim Leberecht and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this smart, playful, and provocative book, one of today’s most original business thinkers argues that we underestimate the importance of romance in our lives and that we can find it in and through business—by designing products, services, and experiences that connect us with something greater than ourselves. Against the backdrop of eroding trust in capitalism, pervasive technology, big data, and the desire to quantify all of our behaviors, The Business Romantic makes a compelling case that we must meld the pursuit of success and achievement with romance if we want to create an economy that serves our entire selves. A rising star in data analytics who is in love with the intrinsic beauty of spreadsheets; the mastermind behind a brand built on absence; an Argentinian couple who revolutionize shoelaces; the founder of a foodie-oriented start-up that creates intimate conversation spaces; a performance artist who offers fake corporate seminars for real professionals—these are some of the innovators readers will meet in this witty, deeply personal, and rousing ramble through the world of Business Romanticism. The Business Romantic not only provides surprising insights into the emotional and social aspects of business but also presents “Rules of Enchantment” that will help both individuals and organizations construct more meaningful experiences for themselves and others. The Business Romantic offers a radically different view of the good life and outlines how to better meet one’s own desires as well as those of customers, employees, and society. It encourages readers to expect more from companies, to give more of themselves, and to fall back in love with their work and their lives.
Download or read book The Romance of Steel written by Herbert N. Casson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Steel: The Story of a Thousand Millionaires This book is the first popular history of our greatest American industry. The wonderful story of steel is here told in such a way that those who have no technical knowledge of steel-making may enjoy and appreciate the miracles that have been accomplished. First, it is a story of the electric expansion of a business from bankruptcy to billions. It is an American story of self-help - of the unprivileged men who climbed from poverty to the commercial supremacy of the world. And also it is a biography of that most useful of all metals - the structural metal of modern civilisation. Now that the iron and steel business has passed into the hands of more than sixty thousand stockholders, there has come a demand for a popular book on the subject, which shall be not only picturesque, but accurate and instructive as well. Therefore, while I have written these pages after the manner of fiction, the facts have been gathered from the highest authorities. Fully nine-tenths of the material has been obtained at first hand, either from the Steel Kings themselves or from original documents. The book is, in fact, the result of a two-years' study of the American iron and steel business, made on the spot, and with the assistance of many experts. I take this opportunity to express my thanks to the following gentlemen for their courtesy and friendly co-operation: - Andrew Carnegie, H. C. Prick, John Fritz, Charles M. Schwab, Elbert H. Gary, George W. Perkins, George Gould, James M. Swank, George Lauder, John Walker, F. T. F. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
