Tap Dancing to Work : Warren Buffett on Practically Everything, 1966-2012: A Fortune Magazine Book - Thryft
Sold out

from ₱616.50

Unit price

Warren Buffett built Berkshire Hathaway into something remarkable— and Fortune journalist Carol Loomis had a front-row seat for it all. When Carol Loomis first mentioned a little-known Omaha hedge fund manager in a 1966 Fortune article, she didn’t dream that Warren Buffett would one day be considered the world’s greatest investor—nor that she and Buffett would quickly become close personal friends. As Buf­fett’s fortune and reputation grew over time, Loomis used her unique insight into Buffett’s thinking to chronicle his work for Fortune, writ­ing and proposing scores of stories that tracked his many accomplishments—and also his occa­sional mistakes. Now Loomis has collected and updated the best Buffett articles Fortune published between 1966 and 2012, including thirteen cover stories and a dozen pieces authored by Buffett himself. Loomis has provided commentary about each major arti­cle that supplies context and her own informed point of view. Readers will gain fresh insights into Buffett’s investment strategies and his thinking on management, philanthropy, public policy, and even parenting. Some of the highlights include:The 1966 A. W. Jones story in which Fortune first mentioned Buffett. The first piece Buffett wrote for the magazine, 1977’s “How Inf lation Swindles the Equity Investor.” Andrew Tobias’s 1983 article “Letters from Chairman Buffett,” the first review of his Berk­shire Hathaway shareholder letters. Buffett’s stunningly prescient 2003 piece about derivatives, “Avoiding a Mega-Catastrophe.” His unconventional thoughts on inheritance and philanthropy, including his intention to leave his kids “enough money so they would feel they could do anything, but not so much that they could do nothing.” Bill Gates’s 1996 article describing his early impressions of Buffett as they struck up their close friendship. Scores of Buffett books have been written, but none can claim this work’s combination of trust between two friends, the writer’s deep under­standing of Buffett’s world, and a very long-term perspective.

"This is not a book about charismatic visionary leaders. It is not about visionary product concepts or visionary products or visionary market insights. Nor even is it about just having a corporate vision. This is a book about something far more important, enduring, and substantial. This is a book about visionary companies. " So write James C. Collins and Jerry I. Porras in this groundbreaking book that shatters myths, provides new insights, and gives practical guidance to those who would like to build landmark companies that stand the test of time. Drawing upon a six-year research project at the Stanford University Graduate School of Business, Collins and Porras took eighteen truly exceptional and long-lasting companies -- they have an average age of nearly one hundred years and have outperformed the general stock market by a factor of fifteen since 1926 -- and studied each company in direct comparison to one of its top competitors. They examined the companies from their very beginnings to the present day -- as start-ups, as midsize companies, and as large corporations. Throughout, the authors asked: "What makes the truly exceptional companies different from other companies?" What separates General Electric, 3M, Merck, Wal-Mart, Hewlett-Packard, Walt Disney, and Philip Morris from their rivals? How, for example, did Procter & Gamble, which began life substantially behind rival Colgate, eventually prevail as the premier institution in its industry? How was Motorola able to move from a humble battery repair business into integrated circuits and cellular communications, while Zenith never became dominant in anything other than TVs? How did Boeing unseat McDonnell-Douglas as the world's best commercial aircraft company -- what did Boeing have that McDonnell-Douglas lacked? By answering such questions, Collins and Porras go beyond the incessant barrage of management buzzwords and fads of the day to discover timeless qualities that have consistently distinguished outstanding companies. They also provide inspiration to all executives and entrepreneurs by destroying the false but widely accepted idea that only charismatic visionary leaders can build visionary companies. Filled with hundreds of specific examples and organized into a coherent framework of practical concepts that can be applied by managers and entrepreneurs at all levels, Built to Last provides a master blueprint for building organizations that will prosper long into the twenty-first century and beyond.

The inside story of Facebook, told with the full, exclusive cooperation of founder Mark Zuckerberg and the company's other leaders.In little more than half a decade, Facebook has gone from a dorm-room novelty to a company with 500 million users. It is one of the fastest growing companies in history, an essential part of the social life not only of teenagers but hundreds of millions of adults worldwide. As Facebook spreads around the globe, it creates surprising effects—even becoming instrumental in political protests from Colombia to Iran.Veteran technology reporter David Kirkpatrick had the full cooperation of Facebook’s key executives in researching this fascinating history of the company and its impact on our lives.

He chronicles its successes and missteps, and gives readers the most complete assessment anywhere of founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg, the central figure in the company’s remarkable ascent. This is the Facebook story that can be found nowhere else.How did a nineteen-year-old Harvard student create a company that has transformed the Internet and how did he grow it to its current enormous size?

In the process, he and a small group of key executives have created a company that has changed social life in the United States and elsewhere, a company that has become a ubiquitous presence in marketing, altering politics, business, and even our sense of our own identity. This is the Facebook Effect.

In The Lean Startup, Eric Ries, entrepreneur in residence at Harvard, serial entrepreneur and founder of the lean startup meetups, showed how ideas from the startup world such as constant iteration, minimal viable products (or MVPS), and constantly testing business hypotheses with customers to determine when to perservere, and when to pivot, now turns his attention to established, mature companies and organizations.

In The Startup Way, Ries shares his insights, lessons, stories, challenges and best practices from his intense collaborations with some of the world's most innovative and successful companies, as they attempt to change their culture and processes to be faster and smarter at what they do.

For every company that recognizes it needs to embrace agility, change and do so quickly if it is to survive and thrive, The Startup Way is an absolutely critical guide and toolkit.

In a world where economies as diverse as Ireland, Singapore and Dubai have tried to re-create the "Israel effect", there are entrepreneurial lessons well worth noting. As America reboots its own economy and can-do spirit, there's never been a better time to look at this remarkable and resilient nation for some impressive, surprising clues.

A guide to the early decisions that can make or break startup venturesOften downplayed in the excitement of starting up a new business venture is one of the most important decisions entrepreneurs will face: should they go it alone, or bring in cofounders, hires, and investors to help build the business? More than just financial rewards are at stake. Friendships and relationships can suffer. Bad decisions at the inception of a promising venture lay the foundations for its eventual ruin. The Founder's Dilemmas is the first book to examine the early decisions by entrepreneurs that can make or break a startup and its team.Drawing on a decade of research, Noam Wasserman reveals the common pitfalls founders face and how to avoid them. He looks at whether it is a good idea to cofound with friends or relatives, how and when to split the equity within the founding team, and how to recognize when a successful founder-CEO should exit or be fired. Wasserman explains how to anticipate, avoid, or recover from disastrous mistakes that can splinter a founding team, strip founders of control, and leave founders without a financial payoff for their hard work and innovative ideas. He highlights the need at each step to strike a careful balance between controlling the startup and attracting the best resources to grow it, and demonstrates why the easy short-term choice is often the most perilous in the long term.The Founder's Dilemmas draws on the inside stories of founders like Evan Williams of Twitter and Tim Westergren of Pandora, while mining quantitative data on almost ten thousand founders.People problems are the leading cause of failure in startups.

Seth Godin’s three essential questions for every marketer: “What’s your story?” “Will the people who need to hear this story believe it?” “Is it true?”  All marketers tell stories. And if they do it right, we believe them. We believe that wine tastes better in a $20 glass than a $1 glass. We believe that an $80,000 Porsche is vastly superior to a $36,000 Volkswagen that’s virtually the same car. We believe that $125 sneakers make our feet feel better—and look cooler—than a $25 brand. And believing it makes it true.   As Seth Godin showed in this controversial book, great marketers don’t talk about features or even benefits. Instead, they tell a story—a story we want to believe, whether it’s factual or not. In a world where most people have an infinite number of choices and no time to make them, every organization is a marketer, and all marketing is about telling stories.   Marketers succeed when they tell us a story that fits our worldview, a story that we intuitively embrace and then share with our friends. Think of the Dyson vacuum cleaner, or Fiji water, or the iPod.   But beware: If your stories are inauthentic, you cross the line from fib to fraud. Marketers fail when they are selfish and scurrilous, when they abuse the tools of their trade and make the world worse. That’s a lesson learned the hard way by telemarketers, cigarette companies, and sleazy politicians.   But for the rest of us, it’s time to embrace the power of the story. As Godin writes, “Stories make it easier to understand the world. Stories are the only way we know to spread an idea. Marketers didn’t invent storytelling. They just perfected it.”

One day, desperate to land a big deal at the end of a bad quarter, he seeks advice from the enigmatic Pindar, a legendary consultant referred to by his devotees simply as the Chairman. Over the next week, Pindar introduces Joe to a series of 'go-givers': a restaurateur, a CEO, a financial adviser, a broker, and the 'Connector' who brought them all together. Pindar's friends share the Five Laws of Stratospheric Success and teach Joe how to open himself up to the power of giving. Joe learns that changing his focus from getting to giving - putting others' interests first and continually adding value to their lives - leads to unexpected returns. Imparted with wit and grace, "The Go-Giver" is a heartwarming and inspiring tale that brings new relevance to the old proverb 'Give and you shall receive'.

START-UP NATION addresses the trillion dollar How is it that Israel - a country of 7.1 million, only 60 years old, surrounded by enemies, in a constant state of war since its founding, with no natural resources-- produces more start-up companies than large, peaceful and stable nations like Japan, China, India, Korea, Canada and the UK?With the savvy of foreign policy insiders, Senor and Singer examine the lessons of the country's adversity-driven culture, which flattens hierarchy and elevates informality - all backed up by government policies focused on innovation. In a world where economies as diverse as Ireland, Singapore and Dubai have tried to re-create the "Israel effect", there are entrepreneurial lessons well worth noting. As America reboots its own economy and can-do spirit, there's never been a better time to look at this remarkable and resilient nation for some impressive, surprising clues.

Cuốn sách vạch trần bản chất của Amazon, Apple, Facebook và Google Được dịch sang 22 thứ tiếng, nằm trong danh sách “best seller” của cả New York Times và USATODAY, Tứ Đại Quyền Lực (The Four) khiến cả thế giới rúng động vì lượng sự thật nó hàm chứa trong nội dung. Quyển sách được khuyến cáo với người đọc là họ sẽ bàng hoàng không hề nhẹ trước những điều mình đọc…“Đây là quái vật của dòng sách kinh tế. Cuốn sách thiết yếu và bao quát này hết sức sắc bén, thú vị và cay nghiệt. Những nhận xét thẳng và thật của Scott Galloway chẳng kiêng dè bất cứ một đại gia công nghệ nào. Thực sự là một cuốn sách đáng đọc”, Chuyên gia tâm lý Adam Alter, giảng viên ngành tâm lý học tại trường kinh doanh Stern thuộc Đại học New York nhận xét như thế khi đọc xong Tứ Đại Quyền Lực. Đây là cuốn sách đầu tay của Scott Galloway, một giáo sư tại khoa Kinh doanh Stern thuộc đại học New York, phụ trách giảng dạy về chiến lược thương hiệu và tiếp thị số cho các học viên MBA năm thứ hai.Scott là một nhà đầu tư, đã sáng lập 9 công ty bao gồm L2, Red Envelope và Prophet. Anh cũng từng lọt vào danh sách 50 Giáo sư Kinh doanh Xuất sắc nhất thế giới của trang thông tin Poets & Quants vào năm 2012. Loạt clip hàng tuần Winners and Losers của ông trên YouTube đã thu hút được hàng chục triệu lượt xem. Vậy, tác phẩm của một giáo sư “siêu” kinh doanh này hấp dẫn người đọc ở điểm nào?Đầu tiên, đây là tác phẩm “đụng chạm” trực diện chuyện kinh doanh của Amazon, Apple, Facebook và Google, bốn doanh nghiệp có sức ảnh hưởng áp đảo nhất hành tinh này hiện nay. Bằng sự tôn trọng tuyệt đối, giáo sư Scott Galloway ghi nhận thành công và hành trình thành công của những tên tuổi đình đám nhất trong giới công nghệ này. Những con số, những phép so sánh mà tác giả mang đến cho người đọc khả năng hình dung các “ông lớn” này đang lớn đến mức nào. Đi sâu vào chiến lược kinh doanh của bốn cái tên hàng đầu, Scott Galloway cùng đồng thời lý giải từng quyết định, từng thương vụ lớn mà những doanh nghiệp này đã thực hiện. Ông quan niệm, hiểu được sự lựa chọn của bộ tứ quyền lực là hiểu được mô hình kinh doanh và cách họ tạo ra giá trị trong kỷ nguyên số. “Tôi viết cuốn sách này với hy vọng độc giả sẽ có được cái nhìn thấu đáo và nhận ra được thế mạnh của doanh nghiệp trong một nền kinh tế mà chưa bao giờ dễ trở thành tỷ phú như bây giờ, nhưng cũng chưa bao giờ trở thành triệu phú khó đến vậy”, tác giả chia sẻ. Tuy nhiên, điều khiến tác phẩm của Scott Galloway cực kỳ hấp dẫn là vì ông đã không kiêng dè khi chứng minh, hiểu biết của cả thế giới về bốn cái tên quyền lực kia gần như đều… sai bét. Vượt thoát khỏi làn khói thần bí vây quanh bộ tứ quyền lực ấy che mắt, ông thẳng tay lột phăng chiếc mặt nạ dát vàng của bộ tứ quyền lực để mổ xẻ chiến lược và năng lực thao túng siêu phàm của họ, từ đó giúp độc giả học hỏi và áp dụng những kỹ thuật đó vào sự nghiệp của chính mình.Trong nửa đầu quyển sách, tác giả đưa người đọc vào quá trình xem xét từng chàng kỵ binh và phân tích những chiến lược của họ. Các doanh nghiệp khác có thể học gì từ những chiến lược này. Trong phần thứ hai là cách thức nhận diện những thế mạnh cạnh tranh của bộ tứ này, xem cách kinh doanh mới của họ đang diễn tiến như thế nào. Bên cạnh đó, tac giả cũng cho người đọc thấy được cách thức bộ tứ bảo vệ thị trường của mình ra sao.Bằng một phong thái hết sức từ tốn, Scott Galloway đưa người đọc từ bất ngờ này sang bất ngờ khác. Đâu là tội lỗi của bốn chàng kỵ binh này? Họ đã lợi dụng các chính phủ và đối thủ cạnh tranh như thế nào trong việc bảo vệ sở hữu trí tuệ?Không chỉ dừng lại ở bốn cái tên khổng lồ, tác giả mở rộng bức tranh, mang đến độc giả cái nhìn toàn cảnh bằng cách điểm mặt các ứng cử viên công nghệ sáng giá khác, từ Netflix đến Alibaba, một Amazon thu nhỏ của Trung Hoa, rồi Uber và những người khổng lồ một thời từng làm mưa làm gió như IBM, Microsoft… để cùng tìm câu trả lời cho câu hỏi liệu họ có thể quay lại đường đua hay không? Ai trong số họ có khả năng phát triển một nền tảng chi phối hơn so với bộ tứ hiện tại? Ai sẽ có khả năng trở thành chàng kỵ binh thứ năm? Và, bộ tứ sẽ đưa con người đi đến đâu.Vạch trần bản chất kinh doanh của bốn doanh nghiệp đang ảnh hưởng rất lớn đến đời sống con người nhưng Tứ Đại Quyền lực của Scott Galloway không gây hoang mang cho người đọc. Cuộc trò chuyện ông với độc giả đầy giá trị khi ông cùng người đọc nhìn vào bản thân mình, xem những tính chất nghề nghiệp nào giúp chúng ta tồn tại và có thể hưởng lợi trong kỷ nguyên của bộ tứ quyền lực này. Như lời vị doanh nhân nổi tiếng Calvin McDonald, CEO của Sephora, Scott Galloway thành thật và táo bạo đến tàn nhẫn nhưng cuốn sách này sẽ buộc bạn thay đổi cách nghĩ của mình.Sách do nhà báo Lương Trọng Vũ, Kênh truyền hình FBNC chuyển ngữ, First News thực hiện, NXB Tổng Hợp TP.HCM ấn hành.

THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING SENSATION' The Lean Startup changes everything.' - Harvard Business Review----------Most new businesses fail. But most of those failures are preventable.The Lean Startup is a new approach to business that's being adopted around the world. It is changing the way companies are built and new products are launched.Essential reading for any ambitious entrepreneur, The Lean Startup will teach you to identify what your customers really want. You'll learn how to test your vision continuously, adapting and adjusting before it's too late.With over a million copies sold across the globe, now is your time to think Lean.
Digital transformation is not about technology--it's about change. In the rapidly changing digital economy, you can't succeed by merely tweaking management practices that led to past success. And yet, while many leaders and managers recognize the threat from digital--and the potential opportunity--they lack a common language and compelling framework to help them assess it and guide them in responding. They don't know how to think about their digital business model. In this concise, practical book, MIT digital research leaders Peter Weill and Stephanie Woerner provide a powerful yet straightforward framework that has been field-tested globally with dozens of senior management teams. Based on years of study at the MIT Center for Information Systems Research (CISR), the authors find that digitization is moving companies' business models on two from value chains to digital ecosystems, and from a fuzzy understanding of the needs of end customers to a sharper one. Looking at these dimensions in combination results in four distinct business models, each with different capabilities. The book then sets out six driving questions, in separate chapters, that help managers and executives clarify where they are currently in an increasingly digital business landscape and highlight what's needed to move toward a higher-value digital business model. Filled with straightforward self-assessments, motivating examples, and sharp financial analyses of where profits are made, this smart book will help you tackle the threats, leverage the opportunities, and create winning digital strategies.

In 2006, while travelling in Argentina, young entrepreneur Blake Mycoskie encountered children too poor to afford shoes, who developed injuries on their feet that often led to serious health problems. Blake knew he wanted to help, but rather than start a charity, he went against conventional wisdom and created a for profit business to help the children who he met. With the help of a local shoemaker, Blake struck out to merge activism and fashion in the form of a local canvas shoe worn by farmers and gauchos alike, called the alpargata. Blake called his creation TOMS Shoes (which stands for "Tomorrow's Shoes") and promised to give a pair of new shoes to a child in need for every pair that he sold. Starting with only two hundred pairs of handmade shoes, optimism, and entrepreneurial charisma, Blake successfully launched TOMS into the high fashion world. They can now be seen adorning the feet of celebrities such as Keira Knightley, Scarlett Johansson, and Tobey Maguire.Blake's mission is to prove that you can achieve financial success and make the world a better place at the same time. In this book, he shares the six counterintuitive principles that have guided the growth of TOMS for the past threeMake business personalBe resourceful without resourcesReverse retirementKeep it simpleStay humbleGive more, advertise lessThe result is an inspiring account of a young man whose entrepreneurial spirit was able to affect change in the world, and a call to others to be inspired to do the same.As part of the One for One initiative, Random House will provide a new book to a child in need with every copy of Start Something That Matters purchased.

Both Eric Schmidt and Jonathan Rosenberg came to Google as seasoned Silicon Valley business executives, but over the course of a decade they came to see the wisdom in Coach John Wooden's observation that 'it's what you learn after you know it all that counts'. As they helped grow Google from a young start-up to a global icon, they relearned everything they knew about management. How Google Works is the sum of those experiences distilled into a fun, easy-to-read primer on corporate culture, strategy, talent, decision-making, communication, innovation, and dealing with disruption.The authors explain how the confluence of three seismic changes - the internet, mobile, and cloud computing - has shifted the balance of power from companies to consumers. The companies that will thrive in this ever-changing landscape will be the ones that create superior products and attract a new breed of multifaceted employees whom the authors dub 'smart creatives'. The management maxims ('Consensus requires dissension', 'Exile knaves but fight for divas', 'Think 10X, not 10%') are illustrated with previously unreported anecdotes from Google's corporate history.'Back in 2010, Eric and I created an internal class for Google managers,' says Rosenberg. 'The class slides all read 'Google confidential' until an employee suggested we uphold the spirit of openness and share them with the world. This book codifies the recipe for our secret sauce: how Google innovates and how it empowers employees to succeed.'
