Rising from the Ashes?: Labor in the Age of "Global" Capitalism

Book Description

Without parallel in sophistication of coverage for readers curious about labor, Rising from the Ashes? provides sharp analysis of the hottest issues being debated by labor scholars and activists.

Topics covered include the changing composition of the international working class, patterns of work under contemporary capitalism, the relationship of race and gender to class, the promise and limitations of recent eruptions of labor militancy, and the strategic options available to the labor movement today.

Book Description

This book offers a timely analysis of work and labor processes and how they are rapidly changing under globalization. The contributors explore traditional sectors of the U.S. and world economies--from auto to steel to agriculture--as well as work under new production arrangements, such as third world export processing zones. They explain why more intensified forms of control by the state and by capital interests are emerging under globalization. Yet they also emphasize new possibilities for labor, including new forms of organizing and power sharing in a rapidly changing economy. Visit our website for sample chapters!

Book Description

Nearly all countries in the world are experiencing an aging of their populations due to declining fertility rates and rising longevity. Aging has been the subject of much discussion in the last decade, often expressed in alarmist language. On Global Aging presents a more optimistic look on the effects of aging on the economy. Nonetheless aging will pose major policy challenges on the well functioning of the economy and the society as a whole.
The book describes and analyses the effects of population aging on social and economic issues, labour and financial markets, pension and health care expenditures and public finance, and the welfare of people. It surveys also the policy measures in the face of aging to secure the resource base. They are mainly aimed at increasing labour force participation and above all at stimulating productivity growth. The book is a valuable resource for practitioners and policy makers and the wider academic community, economists, social scientists, gerontologists and others.

Book Description

The Politics of Labor in a Global Age is one of the first works to analyse and compare recent shifts in patterns of industrial relations across late-industrializing and post-socialist economies. The volume features original and timely essays on labor relations at national, local, and workplace levels, as economic and politicla actors cope with the similar challenges associated with economic adjustment measures and the impact of 'globalization'. The authors reveal that while globalization has threatened the position of organized labor and prompted business and state elites to accommodate greater labor market flexibility, the legacies of past institutions remain evident in destinctive trends in labor politics within and across late-industrializing and post-socialist settings. The comparisons suggest that globalization is best understood not as a source of covergence but as a set of common pressures that are mediated by specific historical inheritances, that spur varied responses on the part of industrial relations actors, and that facilitate quite diverse institutional outcomes.

Corporate survival is inexorably tied to cash flow, yet few books on operational basics devote more than a chapter to the topic. Not so with Get Your Money, by commercial litigation lawyer and veteran entrepreneur Eliot Wagonheim. Designed to help companies get paid what they are owed without alienating clients, it is completely devoted to steps that make a firm as "deadbeat-proof" as possible--along with those to follow if disputes cannot be equitably resolved. Wagonheim starts by guiding readers on a "tip-to-tail review" of their existing procedures, complete with advice on closing any loopholes discovered in the development and deployment of payment policies, account applications, due diligence, and other fundamentals. Suggestions follow on maximizing cash flow (request payment in advance; accept credit cards and checks safely), spotting potential trouble (how to track and address emerging problems), and handling difficult customers (set a contact schedule; call at acceptable times; never send letters from a phony collection agency). The legal section explores alternative resolutions, and, in case they can't be achieved, also offers complete information on filing suit, evaluating settlement proposals, and "turning your judgment into money." Helpful model documents and other materials are included in each chapter. --Howard Rothman

Book Description

Dr. Weaver is a solid communicator whether it's in person or through the written page. I never had the privilege of meeting the coauthor, Dr. Hybels. This book covers the basics of communication effectiveness in a precise manner. Various contexts are included.

You can tell the authors represent a holistic approach due to the myriad sources brought together to explain the process. Even the entertainment portion is included, which helps maintain student interest.

Communicating Effectively.......2000-08-05

We use this book at the Florida State University to teach a Freshman/Sophmore level Public Speaking class. It's a great book because it's simple and straight-forward. It approaches the student with real-world examples and presents solutions for the individual to overcome fears/roadblocks to public speaking.

I recommend this book as a textbook for any student of public speaking. It's also written so it can be read cover to cover so it can be used out of the classroom!

Interesting but marginally useful........2001-06-14

I think this book is best for someone who's read Mr. Tracey's other books or listened to any of his audio cassette programs and wants a handy, pocket-size "memory jogger" of his basic ideas and insights. If you have not read other books on time management these "quotes" are likely to be of marginal use. While I've enjoyed Mr. Tracy other works I was somewhat disappointed in this one; I thought more could have been included even in a "little book" format. I do recommend his "Mastering Your Time" audio program, Alan Lakein's "How To Get Control of Your Time and Your Life" (my favorite, though it's only available in a mass market paperback now) and Julie Morgenstern's "Time Management From the Inside Out."

Time As Our Scarcest (and Thus Most Valuable) Resource.......2000-06-22

This book is designed for those who need time management the most, and have the least knowledge about the subject. I'll be brief, as a result.

The book is a collection of over 250 sayings, questions, and quotes (very few of the last) on the subject of why time is important and how to get the most out of it.

I have read extensively on this subject, and did not see any major area of thinking that was not reflected somewhere in the book. So you will have a good overview of the principles for how to improve when you are done. You won't have detailed directions, but other books can help you with that when you are ready for them.

The book covers why time is important, goal-setting about time, use of goals, the application of Pareto's Law (80/20 Rule), planning, delegation, priorities, outsourcing, happiness, getting rid of time wasters, rewards from becoming more effective, reading and learning more effectively, and the impact on your personal life.

If you allocate 2 minutes a day to this book, you should soon be saving significant amounts of time and becoming more effective. You could do that while sitting through commercials on television or during moments of enforced idleness when it is safe to read (riding the bus, waiting in line at the bank, etc.).

By starting to take control of your time, you'll end up with a life you would like to lead! Use the additional time well to make a difference for those you care about!

Good Things Come In Small Packages.......2000-03-12

Good things come in small packages, and Brian Tracy's book, "Great Little Book On Mastering Your Time," lives up to that expectation. This is an easy book to read, with powerful concepts simply stated. Brian Tracy pulls no punches in his statements: "Most people engage in activities that are tension-relieving rather than goal-achieving". This book restates key aspects using different phrasing in several places in the book, to drive home points through repetition. It deals with the fundamental fact that without clearly defined goals we can not hope to maximise our use of time. How we use our time directly impacts our ability to accomplish whatever is truly important to us. Brian Tracy reminds us of the importance of spending a large quantity of time with our families, with unbroken chunks of time devoted to each of the most important people in our life. Focusing on the quality of the 2,000 hours per year a typical person works - planning and managing that time effectively - is key to leading a prosperous and balanced life that brings peace of mind for us and security for those we love.

Great pocket book, Brian Tracy is still the best.......1999-03-18

Once again, Brian Tracy, master educator,has turned potentially long winded subjects into the most useful pieces of short, but powerful suggestions for one to improve their quality of life. After all, we all have a limited amount of hours in any day. Brian makes the suggestions in a way that any active individual can benefit. I reccommend this book to everyone, but especially to those with "no time" to read. Read a few pages in the morning, a few at night, 30 seconds...can you spare that for a better life?

weLEAD Book Review by the Editor of leadingtoday.org.......2006-10-19

Author Jay Rifenbary is a former West Point cadet, sales professional and corporate manager. As a professional speaker, consultant and president of a training and development center, he has a powerful message for readers of this book. Stop making excuses and begin to accept responsibility for everything you do. No Excuse! is enjoyable to read because of the raw energy and enthusiasm that it imparts. Rifenbary writes well and provides his personal philosophies to help the reader discover their ability to achieve success and fulfillment. His philosophy is a variant of servant leadership principles including the deep desire to serve others, accountability and valuing people more than wealth or power.

No Excuse! begins with one of the most dramatic prologues I have ever read. It not only introduces the book extremely well, but the author returns to his "special experience" in the epilogue also. The underpinning of his philosophy is borrowed from his days at West Point when "No Excuse, Sir" was one of the few answers a plebe was allowed to utter as a response to an upperclassman. Rifenbary exclaims, "We may get down on ourselves and use certain excuses to relinquish responsibility. That's exactly what excuses are used for; to avoid doing something or to "pass-the-buck". I dare you to make a list. Then when you hear yourself or others making an excuse, simply say, "No Excuse!''"

The book is divided into 2 parts comprised of 14 chapters. Part 1 lays the foundation of the author's no excuse philosophy with a discussion of the principles of self-responsibility, purpose and integrity. He considers this an important preparation for what he coins the Staircase-of-Success or THESAURUS factor presented in Part 2 of the book. Rifenbary takes each letter in the word THESAURUS and uses it as a step to teach an important point or principle. A total of 9 steps take the reader up the Staircase-of-Success. For example, the first step is "Totally Forgive" (Chapter 5) and it ponders the liberating influence that complete forgiveness allows when we forgive others and ourselves of faults and transgressions. When someone embraces total forgiveness there is no longer room for complaining or blaming because the person takes charge, and gains greater control over their life. No Excuse! is not simply a book to read, but it employs many tools to stimulate thought and action from the reader. Rifenbary uses many parables or stories to highlight his points. He also provides an Action Plan at the end of most chapters along with some charts and his own personality indicator.

No Excuse! is an enjoyable book to read. It may not break new ground or provide a radical new leadership philosophy, but it is certainly encouraging to read. As a result of Rifenbary's gift of clarity and printed energy, you will believe and know that change is possible in your life. If you are interested in discovering servant leadership principles presented in a dynamic and motivational book, you have no excuse... you will want to read this book.

Heavy on the military references but a good book.......2003-03-21

nevertheless. I found myself unable to relate to a lot of the military examples but the lessons taught are powerful. Good book but I think my husband would enjoy it more then I.

Now, more than ever!.......2001-09-18

Jay's message needs to be heard and read by everyone, NO EXCUSE! I wish he would write another -- there MUST be more he has to say!

A MUST READ FOR FAMILIES AND PROFESSIONALS.......2000-07-26

After seeing Jay Rifenbary at a recent conference in Newport Beach, and crying through the entire speech, I purchased the book. This is the most exceptional man and he will change your life by the words in this book. I no longer will live my life with excuses for every bad moment and blame everyone else for what I alone created. This is a must read for professionals and families. No Excuse! Buy this book!

Awesome-should be required reading for teenagers!.......1999-05-15

This book is very timely for those of us who are new in networking. I found so much that is good for me to put into action. The book is easy to read and, for the most part, takes care of the questions I came up with, as I read the book. The only reason I give it four stars is because, as I was reading there were a few questions that I didn't have answers to until the end of the book. I would recommend this book to anyone in multi-level sales.

As Pat has metioned, a lot of the material in his book he picked up from other books he has read. It does give a realalistic view of day to day frustrations of mlm. To me he lost my interest and turned me off when he started on about his "new age" beliefs. If your a strong Christian or don't care about new age doctrine, you can get some good info out of his book. If your looking for how to's on mlm, look elsewhere. If your wondering about common thoughts that mlmers think, it'll be a good read.

Mission Statements.......1999-03-31

Just wanted to let the readers of this book know that the quote on Mission Statements given by the reader in Kirkland, Washington, is actually quoted and credited in Snetsinger's book to the best-selling author of The Path: Creating Your Mission Statement for Work and for Life, by Laurie Beth Jones. Snetsinger's book is great, but for help in forming and living your mission, read The Path by Laurie Beth Jones. She truly helps you create a brief, succint and focused statement of purpose that can be used in all of life's activities.

Insightful and to the point.......1999-02-08

I found this book to be a nugget. I do have a couple of other MLM books that are my favorites but this is definetely a must read for people in MLM. There were at least 3 chapters that catapulted my thinking: 1. Developing a Mission Statement 2. The $300 dollar solution. Wow! This simple little solution just blew me away. How could MLM be that simple. Why doesn't your upline ever tell you about this? Do they even know? 3. The following quote from the book really stimulated my thought process: "Anonymous marketing just doesn't work anymore. Consumers want to know not only what they're buying, but who they're buying it from. The people, not the logo. Consumer relationship is as important as product development." Think of all of the Dave Thomas (Wendy's) type of commercials on TV. Successful growing companies where we can identify with the owner. They are everywhere. Further proof that MLM is the future.

Mission Statement and MLM success -- Finally!.......1998-01-07

I've been in MLM for several years now and am delighted that Patrick Snetsinger has finally touched on the one tool REQUIRED for success in this business. His chapter on Mission Statements is my favorite! He states 'in a world in which we are daily forced to make decisions that lead us either closer to or further from our goals, no tool is as valuable in providing direction as a mission statement -- a brief and focused statement of purpose that can be used to initiate, evaluate, and refine all of life's activities. A carefully thought out mission statement acts as both a harness and a sword -- harnessing you to what is true about your life, and cutting away all that is false.'

It is my experience that MLM distributors are presented with dozens of decisions; the proverbial "forks in the road" every day! With a mission statement in your hand and in your heart, you will be able to decide which road to take in order to achieve objectives -- harness and cut away as needed.

This chapter looks at several 'high profile' company statements and then takes the reader through a 6-step program to writing a personal Mission Statement.

I give a copy of Confessions of a Multi-level Marketer; Networking From Your Heart to all new recruits in my organization with instructions to read this chapter first!

Can smooth the rough edges of almost any encounter.......2004-12-16

The Art Of Persuasion is a must-read for salespeople in all venues. It instructs the reader in techniques that have been refined since the 1970's, though practiced for eons before then, concerning the networking and rapport-building skilles salespeople use to form connections with others and move their goods. According to The Art Of Persuasion, salespeople are "the ultimate street-corner psychologists" - the ability of a truly expert salesperson to connect with and understand how his client thinks is worthy of a top-dollar mental health professional. The Art Of Persuasion explains in detail how Neurolinguistic Programming, or NLP, can be used to foster such connections - whether by something as simple as speaking in visual terms to another who does the same, to more complex dealings with intractible individuals. Human interaction skills will give the reader the ability to close sales that seemed impossible before, yet The Art Of Persuasion is enthusiastically recommended for anyone who has to interact daily with others - the skills delineated can smooth the rough edges of almost any encounter.

Sales persuasion at it's best.......2003-07-25

"The Art of Persuasion" is specifically geared toward sales persuasion. Although most of the information could be used in other situations where you find the need to influence others this is not the primary focus. On the other hand, if you want to be a better sales person, if you want customer loyalty and satisfaction, if you want to prevent "buyers remorse", or find yourself in need of any other sales related influencing techniques this may be just what you are looking for.

The book is laid out like a workbook so you can practice what you are learning. It has one of the best sections I have seen on building rapport and choosing words that the other person can quickly identify with. It also has a fine section on how to elicit the appropriate information from the prospect in order to help them get the value they need from a purchase.

"The Art of Persuasion" is well organized and presents the information in an easy to understand, and more importantly easy to implement manner. It is a recommended purchase for anyone in the sales related field.

Book Description

The Comprehensive Development Framework (CDF)-launched by World Bank President James D. Wolfensohn in early 1999-has become an important influence on the global development agenda. The CDF consists of four principles - a Long-Term, Holistic Development Framework; Results Orientation; Country Ownership; and Country Led-Partnership. These core principles are not new individually, but bringing them together as a unified concept and championing the package within the global development community has been an important innovation.

This evaluation, conducted by multi-disciplinary teams with members from developed and developing countries, shows that both donors and recipients have made progress in implementing the CDF principles, particularly in countries where one or more of the principles have been applied over a number of years. However, these positive changes are fragile and could be stalled or reversed. Implementing the principles requires changes in entrenched behaviors and institutional practices. Thus, dedicated and consistent attention is needed by top donor leadership and recipient countries to ensure that momentum is sustained.
