      Book Description

      By 1995, almost half of the new business owners in the United States will be women. Their emerging voices are challenging cherished notions about what business is and how it should be run. Across America, women are inventing their own companies where they can, as Joline Godfrey aptly puts it, "make money, have fun, and do good." Herself an entrepreneur, Godfrey talks about the special qualities -- frequently overlooked -- that women bring to a business. This exciting possibility of a new way of doing business -- everyone's business -- can and will change the way America works.

      5 out of 5 stars Our Wildest Dreams has the "new" right stuff.......2001-08-19

      I connected with the words of Joline Godfrey. Her evaluation on what women are doing in business, helps all of us see the opportunities to do things differently. The first chapter where she talks about the right stuff struck home - women needing connection with others, seeing people as whole individuals, wanting balance in life, seeing business as a creative outlet, are all principles she dives into - they make sense for those seeking to more than financial goals. There are many bottom lines in life - the women business owners the book reviews get it and are designing business with a bigger picture in mind. Thank you Joline for shifting my thinking - I was already headed in that direction - your book help me get there a little faster.

      5 out of 5 stars Inspirational.......2000-12-23

      This book was a life changer for me. My entire paradygm shifted about my own potential to be an entrepreneur after reading this book. It was instrumental in my decision to leave my public school teaching position and start my own business. I found the specific stories of women's successes and struggles encouraging. I had often given up on ideas once problems started to arise, but after reading this book, I adopted the mantra "Every problem has a solution." It has helped me through many a seemingly crisis situation. I have reread it several times. The most valuable piece for me was the perspective that we women can do something that we love, have fun AND make a living. My husband also enjoyed this book, so it's not just for women.

        Strategies for becoming a fully functional E-business

        This book provides executives, managers, and entrepreneurs with practical ideas and techniques that will help them improve the way they implement and manage E-commerce and E-business. The authors have been E-business strategy consultants for over a decade, and this book is based on their experiences working with hundreds of Fortune 500 companies and dot com startups. The book is filled with examples of how companies across industries have used the Internet to sell in business-to-business E-marketplaces, as well as direct to consumers, and the problems they have encountered in the process. The book also covers many topics that other E-business books miss, including the impact of the Net's underground economy and how to involve customers emotionally with a Web-based business.

        David Taylor and Alyse Terhune (Stamford, CT) founded eMarket Holdings, LLC, an E-business strategy consulting firm in 1999. They have been e-commerce and e-business consultants for over a decade, primarily at Gartner Group, Inc.

        4 out of 5 stars Doing eBusiness: Thriving in an Electronic Marketplace.......2001-01-27

        Here's a book on e-business that is actually entertaining in the way it approaches its subject. This book takes on the ambitious task of addressing both the B2C and B2B aspects of e-commerce, full of good insights and constructive advice in both areas. Mr. Taylor and Ms. Terhune combine the best of their experience from Gartner with new, independent research and conclusions, all written in an entertaining, informative way. While not outright funny, but written in a light style that makes it more readable that most of the E-Business books I've read.

          Book Description

          Today's fast-shifting marketplace can pull a company in thousands of different directions. Cutthroat competition—to create a global presence, improve productivity while reducing costs, or develop Internet capabilities—can put pressure on a business, often with catastrophic results. Those companies that succeed are the ones able to turn on a dime when the market changes. Those that can't often find themselves in a revenue wasteland and watch as the rest of the economy passes them by.


          In Thriving in E-Chaos, author James D. Underwood reveals the simple yet invaluable business secrets used by some of the largest, most venerable companies in the world. Companies thrive in an uncertain economy by following three basic strategies, called the Triad of Success: cultivate the right leadership, develop smart technology, and change direction when the marketplace dictates.


          You'll go beyond the academic theories and chalkboard models to see how 20 companies are making it work right now. They've weathered the economic maelstrom and emerged triumphant, and from them you'll discover how to:

          • Develop a meaningful- and revenue generating-technology strategy
          • Create a corporate culture that thrives on change and responds efficiently
          • Learn from every one of your victories or defeats
          • Visualize the future and lead effectively
          • And much more


          As the marketplace continues to evolve, make sure your business moves with it. Thriving in E-Chaos will set you and your company on the right path to long-lasting success.

          5 out of 5 stars Operational Excellence Explained.......2002-05-10

          As a systems/software analyst, I find myself tending to read only technical publications. So, I make it a habit to periodically force myself to read in an area foreign to me. Thus, I picked up "Thriving in E-Chaos" - the very first book I have ever read related to business operation.

          I wish I had read it long ago! Not because I am a businessman, but because it has given me real insight as to how my company, one of the "winners" mentioned in the book, makes it happen. Understanding that has transformed the way I handle my responsibilities within the organization. And that has transformed my annual bonus handsomely.

          5 out of 5 stars Survival it is!.......2001-07-27

          I am an attorney who counsels companies and this book is my new e-business bible! Anyone who is in or is thinking of getting into e-commerce must read this book. It is revolutionary and insightful! I recommend it to all my clients. This is the consumate text for those who want to make it in our slowing economy. A must have book!

            Maxey and O'Conner's experience with public speaking provides the reader with useful tips and concrete examples without being "gimmicky". Their book is easy to read and allows you to pick and choose what applies to your particular 'speaking' circumstance. The authors give you lots to think about as you prepare your own speeches, presentations, or lectures. As a university professor, I really got a lot out of the book.

            5 out of 5 stars A Must-Have for anyone who wants to speak.......2007-07-27

            What a great book!!!!!! This book covers every tip anyone needs to know to be successful in speaking infront of a group. The way the book is designed, you can take whatever chapters you need and use it as a resource or reference everytime you speak. Great to read when you don't have much time but need a lot of infomation. It doesn't get any better than this!!!

            5 out of 5 stars Presentationally Perfect.......2007-06-20

            In reading the entire book in 2 sittings, I can say that I found the content to be engaging, pragmatic, and very timely solution to some of my current issues around presenting.

            Yes, it is a lot of information, but the book doesn't feel unapproachable. Nor is it a "presenting for dummy's" kind of book. Good balance between too much information and too little.

            5 out of 5 stars The Best Practical Advice!.......2007-05-30

            This book is without a doubt the best available advice on presenting and speaking. As a professional speaker myself, I use it as a reference guide before every speech. Maxey and O'Connor (combined) speak more than 200 times per year. They have made the mistakes and learned the lessons the hard way. All you need to do is read "Present Like a Pro" to learn from these two highly successful professionals.

            Cyndi and Kevin teach you:

            How to prepare for a great presentation
            How to quickly connect with your audience
            How to gracefully handle A/V malfunctions
            How to increase audience participation
            How to deal with hecklers
            How to follow-up
            and more

            As a reference guide for my own speech preparation, this book never leaves my desk!

            It's easy-to-read and easy-to-use. Join the hundreds of professional speakers who use Maxey and O'Connor's book for great speeches.

            5 out of 5 stars Fabulous!.......2007-03-30

            There is so much bad advice out there on how to present, mostly from people who "think" they know what to do. Maxey and O'Connor have "done it", with every type of audience and industry. 45 years of real world experience. They absolutely make sense to me on what actually works! This is the definitive book on presenting in my opinion. It doesn't matter whether you are presenting to a large or small group, giving a talk at a wedding or a local business group, it is about the audience and that connection. It is a series of one on one conversations!

            4 out of 5 stars This is a very helpful and well-written book.......1998-07-28

            Lani tells you step by step how to get organized and prepared for ANY kind of speech/presentation, whether formal or informal, to a group of 3 or a group of 1000. I have always been shy about speaking in front of others, but after reading this book, I now have the confidence I need to feel at ease when called upon to "perform". Once you start reading, you will not want to put it down. You will laugh with Lani as she shares her experiences!

                            5 out of 5 stars Quality Read.......2006-05-01

                            I think this is a high quality book with some very good points from an obviously passionate young man. I don't necessarily agree with all points, and feel at times it is a little superficial but it is well written and very enjoyable. Overall, I think it is an outstanding book and would enjoy a sequel, once Mr. Harbeke has developed in his career.

                            5 out of 5 stars Get In! is Good Advice.......2004-05-10

                            Dan Harbeke's 'Get In!' is a great resource for high school and college students. Sure a lot of it is common sense, but it is being reminded of that which is important. I have applied a lot of what Dan Harbeke has discussed and have had a great deal of success in making area connections and ensuring future contacts. 'Get In!' is not going to solve all of one's problems or tell you everything you need to know, but it will certainly get you moving in the right direction. Thanks Dan.

                            5 out of 5 stars Great Info for College Students!.......2004-05-09

                            I would recommend this book wholeheartedly to anybody looking to get ahead in the world of business. This book oozes energy and really gives the reader a sense of what businesses are looking for in a young candidate. Harbeke speaks with authority and offers practical and crucial tips on the ins and outs of self-marketing. This book is a quick read and a must-have for the motivated job-seeker that's looking for new angles and opportunities!

                            1 out of 5 stars When College Ambition goes Wrong.......2004-05-07

                            When asked to write a good review for this book I was faced with a moral dillema between courtesy and honesty. This book rehashes what your high school guidance counselor presented, some common sense, and some sense that is not so common or correct. However, if you seek to read a business guide book, and think that Donald Trump takes too long, then maybe buy this book as it can be consolidated into about ten pages; although, it could benefit from some color pictures.

                            5 out of 5 stars A fast, stimulating, energizing read.......2004-04-28

                            Dan's book is amazing. As the initial proofreader of the manuscript before it reached the publisher, I was astounded by his conversational tone, as if he were sitting right next to you and counseling you over a quick coffee break. Yet, as easy as this book is to digest, the ideas and anecdotes within it are timeless and, in some cases, actually new to the ever-growing world of business/marketing books.

                            I think the greatest asset to Dan's writing is that he teaches his readers how to explore their goals and dreams while staying in touch with and building upon who they are as a PERSON, and not just as a BUSINESSMAN/WOMAN.

                            This isn't your typical book about finances and budgeting. Mary Hunt and her family recovered from devastating debt in the '80s--a debt incurred secretly over years of using credit card after credit card, compounded by the spectacular failure of the business she started with her husband. There's a strong religious component to her beliefs about money and responsibility, but she comes across as upbeat and modest, rarely dogmatic (except about the evils of easy credit). She encourages openness about money problems, and there's a sense of genuine caring in her writing that eliminates the distance between her and the reader--a quality she's put to good use with her Cheapskate Monthly newsletter.

                            1 out of 5 stars Mary Hunt's INCREDIBLE, but this is her weakest book........2004-08-20

                            I'm a HUGE Mary Hunt fan... her cheapskate lifestyle and debt-proof way of life has completely turned my finances around for the best! I've read nearly all of her books and love them so much I am quick to buy many copies and give them to others... EXCEPT THIS ONE. As a feminist, I found this book enormously patronizing. I felt that when she generalized women's spending habits, she made grossly inaccurate assumptions like I don't understand how a credit card works. If you don't know how a credit card works, read this book! I do not recommend this book unless you are a woman completely clueless about money. If you consider yourself financially savvy and trying to gain more tools, go with "The Complete Cheapskate." If you're married and trying to get a debt-proofed life, go with "Debt-Proof Marriage..." "The Gourmet Cheapskate" is also incredible! I also highly recommend her cheapskatemonthly.com newsletter, but the books are better if you're trying to make a personal change in your life with your finances. Good luck!

                            5 out of 5 stars Help is here for the financially challenged!.......2000-01-26

                            I found this book to be extremely helpful and informative. Mary Hunt offers practical advice in a manner that makes you feel like you're listening to advice from a good friend or relative who has been through it all. She also made me feel like I wasn't a freak for having bad financial habits but that I needed to learn how to break them. For those of you out there who are compulsive spenders (like myself), this book is a great way to start getting on the right financial track.

                            5 out of 5 stars Practical, funny, encouraging help from one who's been there.......1996-08-29

                            Mary really gave me hope! I thought this was just for women but discovered what she had to say applied to both me AND my wife. This book is a real answer to prayer and has given us a great leap forward down the road to getting out of debt...once and for all! Waytago, Mary! Hope you sell a million copies! -RPR, Franklin, TN

The histories of the companies included are compiled exclusively from selections of key documents in their archives, they are unique in charting the history of the twentieth century from the perspective of business, retail, mining, fuel, banking, the media and communications.

                              Using established sources, including company accounts, each volume will have an introduction which places the company in the context of the late twentieth century, and examines key themes of contemporary management theory.

                              *How/why the company has survived
                              * How the company has adapted to changing external circumstances
