The End of Management Alchemy: Some Fun with the Findings of Elliott Jaques and How Requisite Organization Began by Darwin Mott Pdf

The liberation of our workplaces through humor, reality, and the findings of scientific research are central themes running through these stories. Before modern medicine came blood-letting, leaches, and witch-doctoring. Before physics, the philosopher's stone and a world that was flat. Currently, the management of our employment systems is stuck in an alchemy-to-science transitional and nonsensical state (like the image on the front cover). Alchemy is evident in the management fads that keep coming back around with different names, like unicorns on a carousel. This book puts an end to all that. And it's about time! And it is actually "Time" - the Time Span that a Real Boss states as needed and accurate for a subordinate role (or employee) to perform a Real Task, for example - that turns out to be the great liberator. So you can forget about all the passing fads. Let this primer start you on a 10-step journey to a happy and productive hierarchy, with a healthier bottom line.

Alchemy of a Leader by John E. Rehfeld Pdf

The book that shows you how to blend the world's best management skills to outperform your competition . "Alchemy of a Leader provides practical and useful interpretations for many of the most intriguing contrasts between Japanese and Western management styles. Rehfeld has drawn upon his substantial experience as an executive within the U.S. operations of Japanese companies to create a thoughtful, experience-based guide. He correctly asserts that synthesizing powerful, productive practices across management cultures will be an important skill for tomorrow's winners in the global economy. Alchemy is well worth reading." --Kenichi Ohmae Managing Director, McKinsey & Company, Inc. author of The Borderless World "Alchemy of a Leader shows us a new and unique global leadership style. John Rehfeld has held senior management positions in both business worlds and he shows us what works and what doesn't work in the unique marriage of the opposing truths of the Western and Japanese management cultures." --Spencer Johnson coauthor, The One-Minute Manager "John Rehfeld's book is a quick and easy read. Based on his personal experience as an executive at Seiko and Toshiba, Rehfeld uses business practices of successful Japanese companies as a mirror to reflect on the problems of Western management." --Michael Brimm Professor of Organizational Behavior and Management, INSEAD The European Institute of Business Administration "A practical, earthy, no-nonsense approach to business." --Irvin W. Maloney President and CEO, Dataproducts Corporation ".John Rehfeld clearly articulates why the best way is not OUR way or THEIR way but an intelligent combination of the two." --Edward M. Esber, Jr. President and CEO Creative Labs, Inc. "As companies continue to globalize, the search for a 'world management style' will continue. What may well emerge is something along the lines suggested in Alchemy of a Leader." --Dennis Laurie, Ph.D. The Peter F. Drucker Graduate Management Center Claremont Graduate School "A delight to read and filled with just plain good stuff. It is experience and wisdom shared. John Rehfeld provides a fantastic learning experience on how to do things better." --Walter F. Beran Ernst & Young

The Alchemy of Growth by Mehrdad Baghai,Steve Coley,David White Pdf

Growth unleashes benefits beyond the economic. It revitalizes organizations and invigorates the people in them, creating energy, a sense of purpose, and the glow of being on a winning team. Like the alchemy of old, it seeks to transform the everyday into the exalted by means that seem little short of magical. Yet growth is often elusive, achieved at unacceptable costs, or managed in fits and starts. Based on over three years of research and application at high-performing companies around the world, The Alchemy of Growth is a comprehensive, practical approach to initiating, achieving, and sustaining profitable growth—today and tomorrow. As the book shows, the secret is to manage business opportunities across three time horizons at once: extending and defending core businesses, building new businesses, and seeding options for the future. The Alchemy of Growth offers managers at all levels the tools and concepts for investing in the right initiatives, capabilities, and talent to propel their companies into the future.

Alchemy by Rory Sutherland Pdf

‘A breakthrough book. Wonderfully applicable to everything in life, and funny as hell.’ Nassim Nicholas Taleb Why is Red Bull so popular – even though everyone hates the taste? Why do countdown boards on platforms take away the pain of train delays? And why do we prefer stripy toothpaste? Discover the alchemy behind original thinking, as TED Talk superstar and Ogilvy advertising legend Rory Sutherland reveals why abandoning logic and casting aside rationality is the best way to solve any problem. In his first book he blends cutting-edge behavioural science, jaw-dropping stories and a touch of branding magic on his mission to turn us all into idea alchemists. He shows how economists, businesses and governments have got it all wrong: we are not rational creatures who make logical decisions based on evidence. Instead, the big problems we face every day, whether as an individual or in society, could very well be solved by thinking less logically. To be brilliant, you have to be irrational.
