Product Description
Now more than ever before, executives and managers need to understand their larger economic context. In A Concise Guide to Macroeconomics, David Moss leverages his many years of teaching experience at Harvard Business School to lay out important macroeconomic concepts in engaging, clear, and concise terms. In a simple and intuitive way, he breaks down the ideas into output, money, and expectations. In addition, Moss introduces powerful tools for interpreting the big-picture economic developments that shape events in the contemporary business arena. Detailed examples are also drawn from history to illuminate important concepts.
This book is destined to become a staple in MBA courses as well as the go-to resource for executives and managers at all levels seeking to brush up on their knowledge of macroeconomic dynamics.
Book Description
Is it possible to complete projects on-time and on-budget using geographically distributed "virtual" teams?
Yes! Here's the book that shows you how. Packed with practical tools and proven techniques for managing virtual teams for optimum performance, this expert author uses real-world examples and specific guidelines to show you how distributed work groups can be even more productive, effective and flexible than traditional co-located teams.
Supported by extensive research, the book addresses the most commonly identified managerial concerns such as communication, control, monitoring, team building, cultural differences, and legal and process issues. You're provided with a framework of principles and best practices for dealing with these concerns, plus step-by-step procedures for "transitioning teams," and tips on using high-speed networks and groupware as tools for solving problems. What's more, you learn how to...
>Reduce costs and time to market with round-the-world, round-the-clock work flow
>Integrate remotely located technical experts into a team and take advantage of remotely located corporate resources
>Build stronger products and markets with partnerships and joint ventures
Managing Virtual Teams, contains communication principles and management practices that won't become outdated with the next release of a software program. The author outlines the benefits of concentrating first on the investment that needs to be made in people, planning, processes, and training, not on technology alone.
Customer Reviews:
Great Management Perspective.......2002-07-02
I have really looked a long time to find a book that has a practical management perspective. Most of the books I've read on virtual teams either focus on bits and bytes (which I don't need since I'm an IT Director) or high level organizational theory. This book had some really practical suggestions that I could implement to improve communication and control for my team.
Very practical and useful.......2002-06-29
If you are managing geographically distributed teams this is a "save your life" kind of book. Short and to the point with techniques based on actual research instead of myths or stories. I found the 4 key principles for effective distance communication very helpful. I saw immediate improvement in my team's communications once we began using the ideas.
Skimpy, pedantic and superficial.......2002-04-30
I rarely write reviews, and as an author myself I'm loath to criticize another's work. But this one I couldn't let go by...
At 147 pages (main text) there was nowhere near enough "meat" to justify ...[the price tag.]
The writing style was boring and pedantic.
Most of the chapters just skimmed the surface and lacked
substance; the topics are covered much more thoroughly by other
authors.
Chapter 6, Networking Technology, at 12 pages, was much too
"thin" and already out of date; less than 2 full pages
were devoted to the 'section' on securing the network -- a
major concern these days.
Highly recommended.......2001-12-05
I recently reviewed a number of books on distance work for a current project at a research center (...)and found Haywood's to be the best in its class. Haywood does a great job of describing the problems of distance work from different perspectives (manager, employee), and she gives sound advice on how to address these problems. Her prescribed solutions are balanced, and include some new technologies (e.g. personal web pages), but mostly she gives good advice on raising awareness of problems and setting reasonable policies for use of communications.
Haywood's book has more analysis and fewer case studies than others in this genre, which is what I was looking for. She does include plenty of vignettes, but they are short and to the point.
Haywood is my hero!.......2001-11-03
This highly organized, "how-to" book is best in class. From its pragmatic examples to its in depth understanding of
"real" work processes, this book examines all of the aspects of v-teams and is fairly objective in its recommendations. While not giving "deification" to I.T., it DOES break down the elements of IT necessary for success. GREAT BOOK for managers of projects which span geographies

Book Description
This text offers business managers and business school students an excellent practical explanation of the short-term linkages that impact the performance of the overall economy. While the underlying theoretical constructs are not ignored, emphasis is placed on the empirical underpinnings and managerial implications of macroeconomics. The text begins by introducing key concepts such as the GDP, National and Personal Income, and the various measures of inflation and unemployment. Building on this foundation it then analyzes the following aspects of macroeconomics: aggregate supply and demand, international financial markets, cyclical fluctuations, policy analysis, and forecasting.Engaging the reader through many features, the text includes detailed case studies and Manager's Briefcase discussions, which provide practical applications of macroeconomic concepts to real-world situations. Additionally, each chapter ends with a list of key concepts, a chapter summary, and practice questions. Its short-term, empirically oriented approach makes this text a distinctive and practical resource for better understanding macroeconomics.

Book Description
Forge the partnerships needed to win in an increasingly digital economy
Written by insiders who have worked closely with strategic planners at many of today's leading organizations, Digital Deals provides a blueprint for planning and executing sound corporate partnering strategies. You'll explore the 5 classic deal structures--including mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, minority equity investments, commerce alliances, and spin-offs--and learn why traditional deal approaches no longer suffice in the New Economy. Case studies from Microsoft, Intel, Cisco, AOL, and other big winners of the past decade illustrate various new approaches proven to work, as well as those that haven't. This is the place to look for specific guidelines for targeting prospective partners, selecting explicit deal rationales, executing deals successfully, developing database and web-based information resources to support partnerships, and more.
Customer Reviews:
A framework for business development.......2002-01-14
Excellent framework for business development analysis from market overview to deal implementation. Terms for some sample deals are provided, but wish even more was written on deal structure specifics. The book covers turf not previously explored and advanced my professional thinking. Very useful.
Disappointing.......2002-01-11
I have been involved in private equity, acquisitions, and joint ventures for the last several years, and bought this book to learn more about other types of deals, such as e-commerce partnerships, etc. Given the multiple five star ratings for this book, I expected quite a read. Unfortunately, although the book is fairly informative, I cannot say that it imparts anything that could not be gained by an attentive reading of the business press--just a chronology of various deals along with their rationale. I would say that this book would probably be quite useful for a novice or someone that doesn't keep up with their business magazine subscriptions.
The One Book You Have to Read.......2001-07-02
If you 'do' strategy, if you 'do' planning, this is a must read for you. Time is, without a doubt, the most perishable asset on the planet. Where and with whom we spend our times now defines our social and workplace identities. The efficacy associated with our use of time charts our career trajectory. Spending time `strategically' on `strategic issues' is what executives are supposed to do. In almost two decades serving as trusted advisor to executives, I have never heard an executive say, `We have no time for strategy." Having huddled around my fair share of top-of-the-house campfires, I find that as the libations taken at CXO watering holes loosen tongues and the executive elders start to tell stories, the most memorable narrative emerging revolves around a review of past decisions. I have heard, stated quietly and in confidence, "We focused on the wrong things. We made the wrong decision." The payback on time spent strategically was, in many instances, negative.
Is time spent strategically a bad thing? Is strategy dead? Was time spent on strategy wasted? Does strategic planning have no place in our time-crazed, execution-obsessed New Economy? In 1983, the uber-executive of our age- General Electric Chairman Jack Welch dismantled the company's once heralded planning department. We have empirical evidence that those spending the most on traditional forms of resource-centric `strategy consulting' [the cerebrally challenged SWOT - Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats dance] performed the poorest in the market place. The biggest strategic planner of them all, the Soviet Union appears to have just about finished its pre-Millennial journey from totalitarianism to disintegration. Strategy is not dead, but it had certainly fallen out of favor. Few companies don't have strategic plans. Yet few devote the resources to them they used to. Most disturbing, is that efforts to fix the problem, often had the effect of making things worse - or at least making them bad in a different way. Crusades and reforms intended to reinvent, relaunch and reposition the practice strategy have failed.
Lewis Mumford divided history into epochs characterized by their power sources. Traditional strategy tended to emphasize a focused single line of attack, executed by a single economic enterprise- a clear statement of where, how, and when to compete. Noticeably lacking was the question of `with whom?' The new power source in the New Economy is the ability to assemble the most resource-rich, market-savvy, technology-gifted, fleet-of-foot, known-and-trusted-by-the-consumer armada of partners. The way you do that is the subject of Digital Deals.
No book can promise infallibility. No book can guarantee that good decisions will be made. This book will help you spend the time you can allocate to strategic thinking more efficaciously. As such, this is not a coffee-table book. This is not a Great-Title-No-Content book. This is not a Good-article-unbelievable-they-stretched-it-into-a-book-book. This most definitely is not a I'll-buy-it-but-I-won't-read-it book. Digital Deals is the new, new thing in strategic thinking. Using the framework in Digital Deals to analyze the ur-protangonists of our evolving New Economy [Cisco, Intel, Microsoft, AOL, AT&T, Amazon] I experienced something akin to the joy that must have accompanied Galileo's use of the telescope to study the heavens or Robert Hooke's (1635-1703) use of the microscope to study bacteria. The tools contained in these pages will let you see new things. It will simplify what heretofore has been an incoherent jumble of pieces parts. This book has helped me understand the players, the deals and the deal rationales of the market I work in - digital security and privacy. As I read the book, I continued to ask myself whether the two Georges were adding words to the existing vocabulary of strategic planning or creating a new grammar into which the old words might be conjugated. There is no doubt that the process of market modeling described within these pages fundamentally changes the types of conversations we will be having as we try to plan our respective futures.
Incredibly valuable -- a must-read.......2001-06-29
For an organization to survive in today's economy, it's not just a matter of doing deals, but of doing deals in a strategic and systematic way. Geis and Geis emphasize this tenet and provide substantial evidence why a well-planned partnering methodology is critical for the future of any organization. Not only does "Digital Deals" explore a number of partnering models, but also uses extensive real world examples and case studies from familiar companies who battle with these challenges every single day.
This is a book that puts partnerships and alliances in perspective in terms of their usefulness, value and criticality for the future of any organization in today's complex, competitive business world. Highly recommended reading for executives in general and Business Development professionals in particular.
Dealmaking for the 21st century.......2001-06-21
Geis and Geis have produced an extraordinary product that will serve business leaders and deal makers well in both old economy and new economy companies. Their methodology of digital deal mapping provides a very necessary organic approach to identifying, organizing, and strategizing deals in the new millenium.
As a marketing/brand consultant to both Fortune 500 companies and to start-ups I will be handing out this book as Christmas presents to my favorite clients.

With endorsements from two of the largest and most influential public speaking groups -- the National Speakers Association and Toastmasters International-- this book is written by technology consultant William J. Ringle who knows the ups and downs of using technology in presentations. With today's ever-changing technology, often presenters and speakers alike are caught off guard when their computer malfunctions or their microphone squeaks during a speech. This helpful guided tour will cut months - if not years - off a reader's learning curve. Readers will learn how to make the most of phones, microphones, and projectors, how to prepare a professional-sounding demo tape, what to look for in a laptop you'll use for presentations, when you need an Internet Service Provider (ISP), how to use the Internet to research topics, connect with others, and plan your travel, what you need to know about browsers and search engines, how to develop a "webliography," plus tips on creating interesting and useful slide presentations, including what software to use and how to add multimedia enhancements. Whether readers are experienced with high-tech presentations or are barely on speaking terms with technology, they will find plenty of valuable material here, including the tricks that set well-prepared presenters apart. An ideal tool for anyone who has to use technology --from microphones to computers -- in their presentations.

Too basic.......2005-04-14
I gave a quick read of this. Not sure how to rate it. Motherhood and apple pie. Nothing earth shattering. Basics repeated. Prepare, dont loose cool, practise makes perfect. Now that's the secret sauce for a sucessful case interview according to the book.
Short and to the Point; Very Practical!.......2004-04-16
I came across WetFeet for the first time in MBA school -- they impressed me back then with their very practice and to the point approach! This book is no exception!
It is very short (100 pages) and well organized (Getting started; successful networking; the interview process; interviewing at your best; gettgin the best offer).
The book does not cover resume writing and cover letter writing, which I consider one of its strengths (so many other resources are available on the subject).
The real strength of the book is in it practical guidence to specific steps that can be taken in the interpersonal (netwroking, interviewing) aspects of a job search. Recommended read for all career activists!
Yes that's outdated!!.......2004-03-21
I am majorly disappointed with this book. I was really shopping around for Case In Point / Vault Guide to Case Interview, but since those books aren't carried by my local bookstore and I need that quickly, I end up choosing this as it has an electronic version. It's no good. FULL STOP. It's like a random summary of a MBA courses, Porter's five forces etc.. But I don't think this book is helping with dealing with case interview at all, rather it's confusing the candidate especially for those non-MBA students who didn't know about those infamous business framework. It's giving them a incomplete and useful illustrations. Disappointed...
Deconstructing the Case Interview.......2003-04-10
Definitely worth the money. I bought this one as well as Ace II (just heard there's now an Ace III), and used it to prepare for my consulting interviews. No matter what case got thrown at me, I kept my wits about me since i'd seen it all before while working through the WF guides. And now I'm going to work for one of my top picks in consulting. woohoo!
Very Helpful for Case Interviews.......2003-03-08
This guide provides some very useful case examples and takes some of the mystery out of case interviews! I would definitely recommend this!
Book Description
Consulting recruiters use the case interview as a primary means of evaluating interviewees. The sixth book in WetFeet'ss popular Ace Your Case guide provides 15 more case questions to help consulting hopefuls sharpen their case-cracking skills.

So Much Useful Information.......2003-03-15
It's wonderful to finally find a book that covers everything you need to know to get started in life. I'm in the process of planning a wedding and found some of the best hints and tips in this book. What a great resource.
Valuable Resource!!!.......2003-03-04
As a recent graduate, I have found this book to be a valuable resouce. The task of setting a budget and managing my finances after graduation was very intimidating, but this book helped through the process. I would highly recommend this book to any recent grad.
Great Resource.......2003-03-01
I wish I would have had a resource like this when I graduated from college. This book is full of great advice for recent college graduates, and if I would have had a copy of it when I graduated, I would have had a much easier time. Of course, it's not like it's only for the college graduate. There are still many useful tips that people of all ages can use. It's a great book.
Too simple to be useful.......2003-01-21
This book was too simple to be the least bit helpful. It provided just brief overviews of common-sense tips that anyone with even just a little personal financial knowledge would find painful to read. If you're looking for a 5th grade book about financial advice, buy this book. If you're a new graduate looking for useful information that doesn't assume you're stupid, then look elsewhere because you won't find it here.
An excellent financial resource!.......2002-08-14
As a recent graduate of college with a lot of debt from student loans, I found that this book is extremely helpful in giving a plethora of useful tips and suggestions on how to make the most of my money. From paying back those loans and credit card debt, to tips on buying a car and renting an apartment, there is so much valuable information that I higly recommend to any recent graduate . . . or anybody else seeking financial advice.
