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.

Seasoned Google executives Eric Schmidt and Jonathan Rosenberg provide an insider's guide to Google, from its business history and disruptive corporate strategy to developing a new managment philosophy and creating a corporate culture where innovation and creativity thrive.Seasoned Google executives Eric Schmidt and Jonathan Rosenberg provide an insider's guide to Google, from its business history and disruptive corporate strategy to developing a new managment philosophy and creating a corporate culture where innovation and creativity thrive.Google Executive Chairman and ex-CEO Eric Schmidt and former SVP of Products Jonathan Rosenberg came to Google over a decade ago as proven technology executives. At the time, the company was already well-known for doing things differently, reflecting the visionary-and frequently contrarian-principles of founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin.

How Google Works is an entertaining, page-turning primer containing lessons that Eric and Jonathan learned as they helped build the company. The authors explain how technology has shifted the balance of power from companies to consumers, and that the only way to succeed in this ever-changing landscape is to create superior products and attract a new breed of multifaceted employees whom Eric and Jonathan dub "smart creatives."Covering topics including corporate culture, strategy, talent, decision-making, communication, innovation, and dealing with disruption, the authors illustrate management maxims ("Consensus requires dissension," "Exile knaves but fight for divas," "Think 10X, not 10%") with numerous insider anecdotes from Google's history, many of which are shared here for the first time.In an era when everything is speeding up, the best way for businesses to succeed is to attract smart-creative people and give them an environment where they can thrive at scale. How Google Works explains how to do just that.

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.

In Chris Guillebeau's travel to over 175 countries, he has met two kinds of people: those like himself who have the time and income to follow their whims and who've created an entertaining and fulfilling life--and those who feel trapped. This second group wants what the first group has, but the big stumbling block is making money. Because Chris realized that the first group has knowledge to impart, he identified 1500 people worth emulating, and refining that further, he offers here the 50 most valuable and interesting examples of micro-business success. In nearly all cases, people with no special skills discovered a way to monetize their personal passions. It's about finding the intersection between what you like to do and what other people will pay for. You don't need an MBA, a business plan, or even employees. All you need is a product or service that flows from what you love to do anyway, people willing to pay, and a way to get paid.

The essential complement to the pathbreaking book Competitive Strategy, Michael E. Porter's Competitive Advantage explores the underpinnings of competitive advantage in the individual firm.Competitive Advantage introduces a whole new way of understanding what a firm does. Porter's groundbreaking concept of the value chain disaggregates a company into "activities," or the discrete functions or processes that represent the elemental building blocks of competitive advantage. Now an essential part of international business thinking, Competitive Advantage takes strategy from broad vision to an internally consistent configuration of activities. Its powerful framework provides the tools to understand the drivers of cost and a company's relative cost position. Porter's value chain enables managers to isolate the underlying sources of buyer value that will command a premium price, and the reasons why one product or service substitutes for another. He shows how competitive advantage lies not only in activities themselves but in the way activities relate to each other, to supplier activities, and to customer activities. Competitive Advantage also provides for the first time the tools to strategically segment an industry and rigorously assess the competitive logic of diversification. That the phrases "competitive advantage" and "sustainable competitive advantage" have become commonplace is testimony to the power of Porter's ideas. Competitive Advantage has guided countless companies, business school students, and scholars in understanding the roots of competition. Porter's work captures the extraordinary complexity of competition in a way that makes strategy both concrete and actionable.

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. Kirkpatrick tells us how Facebook was created, why it has flourished, and where it is going next. 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? Kirkpatrick shows how Zuckerberg steadfastly refused to compromise his vision, insistently focusing on growth over profits and preaching that Facebook must dominate (his word) communication on the Internet. 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.

The Misfit Economy : Lessons in Creativity from Pirates, Hackers, Gangsters and Other Informal Entrepreneurs - Thryft
Sold out
“A fresh perspective on business practices or working lives…and a snappy introduction to a new way of thinking” (Financial Times), The Misfit Economy shows how lessons in innovation, salesmanship, and entrepreneurship can come from surprising places: pirates, bootleggers, counterfeiters, hustlers, and others living on the fringe of society.Who are the greatest innovators in the world? You’re probably thinking Steve Jobs, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford. The usual suspects. Well, The Misfit Economy isn’t about them. It’s about people you’ve never heard of. It’s about people who are just as innovative, entrepreneurial, and visionary as the Jobses, Edisons, and Fords of the world, except they’re not operating out of Silicon Valley. They’re in the street markets of Sao Paulo and Guangzhou, the rubbish dumps of Lagos, the flooded coastal towns of Thailand. They are pirates, slum dwellers, computer hackers, dissidents, and inner city gang members.Across the globe, diverse innovators are working in the black, grey, and informal economies to develop solutions to myriad challenges. Far from being “deviant entrepreneurs” that pose threats to our social and economic stability, these innovators display remarkable ingenuity, pioneering original methods and best practices that we can learn from and apply to formal markets in urgent need of change.In their “well-paced read about a unique perspective on supply and demand and those who create it” (Library Journal), Alexa Clay and Kyra Maya Phillips investigate the stories of underground innovation that make up the Misfit Economy. They examine the teeming genius of the underground and ask: Who are these unknown visionaries? How do they work? How do they organize themselves? How do they catalyze and execute upon innovation? And ultimately, how can you take these lessons into your own world? The Misfit Economy tells you how.
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.

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. This book offers solutions.

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.'

We think Chris Anderson is onto something big with 'The Long Tail', a groundbreaking look at a well-known feature of statistical distribution and its potential to revolutionize business. 'Wired' magazine editor Anderson expands his influential 2004 article into a comprehensive exploration of this phenomenon -- which, simply stated, holds that products with low demand or sales volume can collectively comprise a market that exceeds the bestsellers. Catering to the tastes and expectations of consumers increasingly disenchanted with the same old thing, these new "niches" provide limitless opportunity for savvy companies. Fresh, insightful, and surprisingly accessible, 'The Long Tail' explains how to tap into the new economics of abundance.
