Download or read book Dual Transformation written by Scott D. Anthony and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2017-03-28 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Game-changing disruptions will likely unfold on your watch. Be ready. In Dual Transformation, Scott Anthony, Clark Gilbert, and Mark Johnson propose a practical and sustainable approach to one of the greatest challenges facing leaders today: transforming your business in the face of imminent disruption. Dual Transformation shows you how your company can come out of a market shift stronger and more profitable, because the threat of disruption is also the greatest opportunity a leadership team will ever face. Disruptive change opens a window of opportunity to create massive new markets. It is the moment when a market also-ran can become a market leader. It is the moment when business legacies are created. That moment starts with the core dual transformation framework: Transformation A: Repositioning today’s business to maximize its resilience, such as how Adobe boldly shifted from selling packaged software to providing software as a service. Transformation B: Creating a new growth engine, such as how Amazon became the world’s largest provider of cloud computing services. Capabilities link: Fighting unfairly by taking advantage of difficult-to-replicate assets without succumbing to the “sucking sound of the core.” Anthony, Gilbert, and Johnson also address the characteristics leaders must embrace: courage, clarity, curiosity, and conviction. Without them, dual transformation efforts can founder. Building on lessons from diverse companies, such as Adobe, Manila Water, and Netflix, and a case study from Gilbert’s firsthand experience transforming his own media and publishing company, Dual Transformation will guide executives through the journey of creating the next version of themselves, allowing them to own the future rather than be disrupted by it.
Download or read book Presence written by Amy Cuddy and published by Little, Brown Spark. This book was released on 2015-12-22 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MORE THAN HALF A MILLION COPIES SOLD: Learn the simple techniques you'll need to approach your biggest challenges with confidence. Have you ever left a nerve-racking challenge and immediately wished for a do over? Maybe after a job interview, a performance, or a difficult conversation? The very moments that require us to be genuine and commanding can instead cause us to feel phony and powerless. Too often we approach our lives' biggest hurdles with dread, execute them with anxiety, and leave them with regret. By accessing our personal power, we can achieve "presence," the state in which we stop worrying about the impression we're making on others and instead adjust the impression we've been making on ourselves. As Harvard professor Amy Cuddy's revolutionary book reveals, we don't need to embark on a grand spiritual quest or complete an inner transformation to harness the power of presence. Instead, we need to nudge ourselves, moment by moment, by tweaking our body language, behavior, and mind-set in our day-to-day lives. Amy Cuddy has galvanized tens of millions of viewers around the world with her TED talk about "power poses." Now she presents the enthralling science underlying these and many other fascinating body-mind effects, and teaches us how to use simple techniques to liberate ourselves from fear in high-pressure moments, perform at our best, and connect with and empower others to do the same. Brilliantly researched, impassioned, and accessible, Presence is filled with stories of individuals who learned how to flourish during the stressful moments that once terrified them. Every reader will learn how to approach their biggest challenges with confidence instead of dread, and to leave them with satisfaction instead of regret. "Presence feels at once concrete and inspiring, simple but ambitious — above all, truly powerful." —New York Times Book Review

Hal Elrod has taken the mystery out of miracles and gives you a simple, proven formula for creating extraordinary results in your life. Highly recommended.”—Lewis Howes, New York Times bestselling author of The School of Greatness "You're only two decisions away from achieving everything you want. And my friend, Hal Elrod, has simplified these two decisions into a simple equation for achieving results. Follow it, and your success is virtually guaranteed. If you want your biggest goals to move from possible, to probable, to inevitable, you better read The Miracle Equation."—Mel Robbins, bestselling author of The 5-Second Rule

Book excerpt: "Borderless Leadership is a must read for anyone involved in international business. It enables beginners to avoid common pitfalls, and seasoned executives will recognize many of their own mistakes and benefit from the frameworks Dr. Kraljevic provides." — Professor Sibrandes Poppema, President, University of Groningen, Netherlands "I just cannot stop recommending this book to ever so many people—my academic colleagues, industry colleagues, friends in the government, former students, students, young CEOs of start-ups that I mentor, and my media friends. The book is very special, deep with several gems of ideas, told in absorbing narrative; neither a text book nor a cook book but a candid, sincere, and extremely effective set of real world lessons for so many global citizens. Dr. Kraljevic uses personal examples from across continents, in diverse industry settings. All I can say is this: Go, grab the book on a Thursday night, and you will have a wonderful weekend reading this amazing book." — Professor S. Sadagopan, Director, International Institute of Information Technology of Bangalore, India "Everything I know about international markets, I owe it to Zlática." — Sue Payne, Former ExxonMobil Area Manager U.S. & Mexico "As the global village rapidly expands, understanding borderless leadership becomes a prerequisite for international success in this 21st century. Kraljevic brings her vast and unique worldly experiences to open your mind with practical treasures, thoughtful how-to models, and conceptual insights. Find out about the human fractal on your journey to becoming a borderless leader." — Lane Sloan, Former President, Shell Chemical Company, USA Studies consistently show that international partnerships between organizations fail to generate expected results at a significant cost. The leading cause behind this failure is lack of trust among people at all levels within organizations. Borderless Leadership explores the disparity that exists between the ways that the West and other cultures conduct business. The book’s premise is that if one cannot control the events or circumstances, one must learn how to control reactions to new environments. Using real-life examples, the book illustrates how to build trust and rapport with business partners across borders and establish relationships that help businesses grow. The book is about achieving success with and through total strangers as you progress from awareness to understanding and from understanding to acquiring, internalizing, and applying new knowledge so you bring your approach to life up to date. Only then can you transform obstacles into unsuspected opportunities that will have a positive impact on your personal and business success.

Book excerpt: WINNER: Les Plumes des Achats 2018 - Committee Special Prize A Circular Economy Handbook for Business and Supply Chains is an easily digestible and comprehensive handbook that provides a clear guide to the circular economy, helping the reader create future-fit, sustainable strategies. Real examples across a range of market sectors help businesses, students and policymakers understand the theory and fast-developing practice of the circular economy. To help the reader generate ideas, A Circular Economy Handbook for Business and Supply Chains provides a holistic framework for the design and supply chain and supporting business models, and includes tools the reader can use to get started. Whilst growing global consumption presents fantastic business opportunities, our current linear systems (take some materials, make a product, use it and then throw it away) are not fit for purpose. The circular economy unlocks this problem by decoupling resources from consumption. Engaged businesses are re-thinking product design, material choices, business models and supply chains. A Circular Economy Handbook for Business and Supply Chains is a must-read for anyone who wants to apply the circular economy today. Online resources now available: PowerPoint slides of figures and tables from every chapter created by the author.
Download or read book Business Head Transformation Challenge Your Mindset Management Processes for Sustainable Business Profitability Growth written by S. Ganesh Babu and published by Sme Business Transformation. This book was released on 2017-03-23 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book helps Small, Emerging Medium Size Business Promoters / CEO's / Head of the organization to improve business profitability and growth so that they can maximize their personal productivity and quality of life.This book is the outcome of my working experience with more than 100 small and medium size business heads for last 21 years. I have the opportunity to work with them on different occasions and different roles either as a mentor, coach, trainer or consultant to improve the business processes, profitability, growth and to build performance oriented culture. While working with them to transform the business, one profound truth I have realized is that irrespective of industry, business nature, product, manufacturing process, marketing environment, competition, the growth of the organization primarily depends on the business head leadership style, his thinking process and how he is guiding his team.Business head's mindset or beliefs about his business, people, customer drive his behavior and action. Those actions results in business performance. Also, his mindset or belief directs him to choose a set of business processes or practices on a day to day basis, which impacts the organizational culture, business results and long term growth.In our business transformation engagements , we have witnessed that whenever CEO or business head understands the desirable behavior gap or business process adherence gap and full heatedly works along with us , the business results used to be extraordinary. In my opinion, business success factors like technology up gradation, effective capacity utilization, expanding into new market, managing the competition, and fulfilling the customers are relatively easy task, if the CEO or business head is slightly challenging and changes his mindset, beliefs, and business processes.I firmly believe that transformation of business head is almost equal to business transformation. Business transformation starts from individual, that too from the head of the organization.In the above context, I had attempted to give some perspectives on the limiting beliefs and mindset that most of the small business heads have. I had outlined the solution approach to overcome the limiting beliefs and given some of the proven business principles, processes, practices for sustainable business profitability and growth.The awareness about business transformation is organized into FOUR Parts.1)The first part deals about typical limiting beliefs and mindsets of business head that affect the business growth and solutions approach to overcome the same.2)The second part deals with some of the proven business principles, processes, practices that will help to improve the business profitability, culture, and growth 3)The third part lists out the comprehensive business process checklist to help the business head or CEO to quickly scan through his business processes and understand the gaps to achieve sustainable business growth. 4)The fourth part lists out some of the basic,powerful management concepts, tools and techniques for business transformation.By reading the book, you can assess your gap in your beliefs, thought process and also you can identify the gap in business process which affects the business profitability and growth. Also, as a bonus , after completing the book, if you send your organisational challenges to my personal mail id, you will get a solutions approach to manage your challenges.This book is my dedication to all the business heads striving for excellence and growth to others through their entrepreneurial spirit...
Download or read book Organizational Transformation written by Bruce J. Avolio and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is estimated that approximately seventy percent of organizations fail in their attempts to implement transformative change. This book will help lessen that rate. Using real-world examples, Bruce J. Avolio maps four states of change that any organization must go through: identifying and recognizing, initiating, emerging and impending, and institutionalizing new ways of operating. Each state is described in detail, as are the leadership qualities necessary to solidify and transition from one to the next. These "in-between moments" are an often-overlooked key to organizational transformation. So too is the fact that organizational change happens one individual at a time. For transformation to take root, each person must shift his or her sense of self at work and the role that he or she plays in the transforming organization. Intended as a road map, rather than a "how-to" manual with fixed procedures, Organizational Transformation will help leaders to locate their organization's position on a continuum of progress and confidently navigate planned, whole-systems change, overcoming the challenges of growing from and adjusting to watershed moments.
