Success Factors of Corporate Spin-Offs Springer-Verlag New York Inc.

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Corporate Spin-Off processes are very interesting phenomena for management theory and practice. In theory, Corporate Spin-Offs are both a driver and a result of organisational change, offering the possibility to investigate an area where companies are genuinely sharing experience and best practice. Although Corporate Spin-Offs can be clearly distinguished from other types of start-ups and divestments and despite combining key-characteristics in a unique way, existing investigation is sparse and heterogeneous. In practice, Corporate Spin-Off processes are frequent and highly successful, but not as well-regarded as Merger Acquisition strategies and less understood by the decision-makers. §The present work was designed to meet these demands by analysing the success factors of Corporate Spin-Offs, their relative contribution to the process and the role of the different actors involved. Based on an extensive literature review and a new Spin-Off typology, a broad range of success factors and success dimensions is proposed. Using a combination of multivariate models, the responses from 211 European companies to a questionnaire are analysed and typologies derived. §Among the single factors, customer participation, the transfer of managerial and market-related experience and the main motivation are the most important ones for the Spin-Off process and its success. The typologies reveal characteristic factors sets, showing for example that high-growth Spin-Offs benefited over-proportionally from sector growth or the access to relations with customers or suppliers. This produces a new and comprehensive perspective on the relative contribution of each success factor, their interaction, and the behaviour of both the parent and the Spin-Off companies in the process. These results are highly valuable for managers, scientists in the field and policy-makers.

Mathematics as Problem Solving Springer-Verlag New York Inc.

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Various elementary techniques for solving problems in algebra, geometry, and combinatorics are explored in this new second edition, "Mathematics as Problem Solving". Each new chapter builds off the previous one, enhancing the reader to reach new levels of using logic to solve problems.§Topics are presented in self-contained chapters, with classical solutions as well as Soifer's own discoveries that he found through his problem-solving experiences. With roughly 200 different problems and multiple proofs for each, the reader is challenged to approach problems from different angles, and in this way can experience the beauty of mathematics.§Review from the first edition:§"Retelling the best solutions and sharing the secrets of discovery are part of the process of teaching problem solving. Ideally, this process is characterized by mathematical skill, good taste, and wit. It is a characteristically personal process and the best such teachers have surely left their personal marks on students and readers. Alexander Soifer is a teacher of problem solving and his book, "Mathematics as Problem Solving", is designed to introduce problem solving to the next generation". The American Mathematical Monthly§Originally self-published by Alexander Soifer, 1987 at the Center for Excellence in Mathematical Education, Colorado Springs, CO.

Winning with 1.e4! Beyer, Joachim Verlag

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Winning with 1.e4! - A confident and promising title that consistently stands for the idea that White starts the game with 1.e4, determined to obtain an opening advantage.1.e4 is not only the most popular move, it's also the best chance to seize the initiative and create a lively combinatorial game. There is an abundance of theory no matter which opening Black chooses, but like a very good travel guide, "Winning with 1.e4!" leads the reader, always making sure to show him the best places while avoiding mass tourism.Here are some of the many advantages of this approach:The reader is given a carefully selected and researched complete repertoire, written from the perspective of White, but useful for Black as well.The given lines promise a game rich in content. Since they are off the beaten track and avoid the flood of theory, they often promise a surprise effect and an opening advantage. Occasionally, they are on a confrontational course with the "iron rules" of chess. For example, if there is a good reason to activate the queen very early, this is exactly what is recommended.A special note concerns the more than 80 completely annotated games. They have been selected very carefully, but often their instructive content was considered more important than the year they were played.FIDE Master Jerzy Konikowski is the renowned author of a large number of excellent opening books. Uwe Bekemann is a national correspondence chess master and the author of various books.

Supplier Relationship Management Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co....

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

There s a new buzz phrase in the air: Supplier Relationship Management (SRM). Corporate executives know it s necessary, but there s only one problem. Nobody yet knows how to do it. Or they think it s all about bashing your vendors over the head until they reduce the price another 4%. Supplier Relationship Management: How to Maximize Vendor Value and Opportunity changes all that. §Containing the best and most innovative advice from the operations and procurement experts at consultant AT Kearney, this book shows that SRM is at root a strategic discussion requiring cross-functional interaction and internal alignment at the highest levels. It requires an honest appraisal of the value that suppliers now bring to your firm, as well as their potential value. It then requires a frank and constructive business-to-business dialogue. When this happens, a company reaps myriad benefits, ranging from new opportunity to added value to competitive advantage and, quite likely, to overall (and sometimes substantial) cost reductions. §This book shows the most concrete methods you can use today to: §Analyze and identify value-adding opportunities in the supply chain §Work closely with suppliers to maximize the benefits §Work the crucial cluster where the greatest opportunity for improvement lies §Review suppliers to encourage constant gains in quality and cost §Save money But it takes work to get there. The CEO and other C-level executives, for example, sometimes unwittingly sabotage the efforts made by procurement and operations people to optimize intercompany interaction and gain the most benefits in working with vendors for the long term. And chief procurement officers and procurement personnel aren t blameless, either. The company sees them and often they see themselves as the price reduction guys. But, instead of simply playing vendors off one another or pushing them as far as they will go, people working in the trenches with suppliers can provide many opportunities to obtain more value from vendors in a variety of ways beyond price. And in doing so, they can turn the procurement department into a major competitive advantage for the company. §Supplier Relationship Management also introduces and explains the Supplier Interaction Model, a key tool that will help you get the most from your supplier relationships. It segments the supplier universe into 9 categories, from those you want to run away from fast to those so good and so useful to your organization that it can make sense to invest in them directly. Numerous case studies show how to apply the principles to your situation. §Managing Supplier Relationships burns off the fog that has surrounded the procurement process for far too long. It is the definitive guide for business executives who want to get the maximum benefits from suppliers and gain very real advantages often invisible from the outside over competitors.

Busoni, Ferruccio - Toccata d-moll für Orgel BWV 565 (Johann Sebastian Bach) Henle, G. Verlag

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Bach/Busoni - a pairing that makes pianists' hearts beat faster. This is because Busoni succeeded in making piano transcriptions of works that Bach had originally tailor-made for another instrument in such a way that one can still sense the original sound world while the grand piano is able to show off its full potential.Together with the C-major Toccata, BWV 564, his transcription of the Organ Toccata in D minor, BWV 565 (now, after some interim uncertainty, once more considered a work by Bach), was to round off his reworkings of Bach for Breitkopf & Härtel in 1900. In Busoni's view a worthy culmination because the toccatas were indeed - as he informed his publisher - "obviously the best among my achievements of this kind and I am confident in expecting they will make a strong impact".G. Henle Publishers agrees with this assessment and presents the famous D-minor Toccata and Fugue in an attractive Urtext edition that has consulted all of the sources and offers fingerings by the exceptional pianist Marc-André Hamelin.
