Taylor & Francis Ltd Brand vs. Wild
Book SynopsisTodayâs business leaders operate in an increasingly harsh environment. Uncertainty in the economy causes paralysis. Quarterly goals drive short-term and shortsighted decisions. Workforce mobility kills loyalty. Iconic products decline as fast as start-ups create new categories. And the pressure to do more with less, combined with the multiplicity of available marketing tools and technology, can be overwhelming.Now more than ever, brands and the people who lead them need clarity and guidance. The good news is that people have found ways to thrive in harsh environments for millennia. Author Jonathan David Lewis, combining the lessons of group survival dynamics with more than a decade of proprietary research into the factors that cause companies to lose their way, shows leaders how to thrive in unforgiving business environments by learning to: Focus on navigating risk instead of trying to measure or reduce it. Cultivate your brandâs will to live by staying positive and asking the most important question: Are you worth it? Read the brand signs by observing the market, keeping an eye on performance measures, engaging your team, and listening to your gut. Develop a concept of mission to ensure internal alignment and reduce friction. Act with urgency rather than waiting for the right circumstance. Brand vs. Wild helps readers understand the wilderness in which they find their companies and identify the specific steps they must take to thrive in the Brand Wilderness. There is hope in a harsh business world. And Brand vs. Wild is it.

WW Norton & Co Going Infinite The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon
Book SynopsisTrade Review"Lewis at his best. . . .You could easily make a savage satire on the crazy snakes and ladders of the crypto wild west described in Going Infinite. But if you have a feeling for the lives of these young people, it is a tragedy too. Whatever the precise proportions inside Sam Bankman-Fried of sincerity and moral seriousness versus malignity, deception and self-deception, I would defy anyone to read Lewis’s book and conclude its subject to be a grifter." -- Jesse Armstrong, writer and creator of HBO’s Succession, Times Literary Supplement"Going Infinite is a stupefyingly pleasurable book to read. It’s perfectly paced, extremely funny, and fills in many gaps in a story that has been subjected to an unholy amount of reporting... What he began with Moneyball has come into full flower with Going Infinite. Lewis has surveyed a landscape taken by convention as settled and found it destabilized, at least here and there, by uneven and unreliable information. Perhaps Lewis’s book should encourage an update, however minuscule, in our own priors." -- Gideon Lewis-Kraus - The New Yorker"Going Infinite is a portrait of grandiose ambitions, youthful arrogance, and the distorting power of money...[Lewis] remains the greatest living exponent of the plain style in reporting. His eye for detail is unsurpassed... And as a chronicle of collective delusion - a modern version of the Dutch tulip mania -Going Infinite is an instant classic... Michael Lewis deserves huge credit for capturing [SBF] in all his infinite weirdness... Mark Zuckerberg, another boy genius in ratty shoes, once described Twitter as a clown car that fell into a gold mine. Sam Bankman-Fried was a Seth Rogen character who fell into a tulip field circa 1634. Another one will be along in a minute. We never learn." -- Helen Lewis - The Atlantic"Leave it to [Lewis] to have unfettered access to one of the best financial stories to come around in years…. There are, of course, the priceless anecdotes from the book… including S.B.F.’s inane conversation with Anna Wintour about whether he would attend and potentially sponsor the annual Met Gala—“Yup!”—and the revelations about his relationship with Ellison, the consequences of which are now playing out in court….Going Infinite, is a delightful read, highly entertaining, often insightful and amusing. It’s a character study of one of the most notorious financial figures of our time…. [Lewis] does not attempt in any way to try to figure out how S.B.F. pulled off what he is accused of doing, other than by revealing that he is one strange dude, lacking empathy, and capable, apparently, of fleecing billions from his customers." -- Willam Cohan - Puck"Lewis’ storytelling is as good as ever… In the past, Mr Lewis has focused on little-known people doing extraordinary things. This time his subject is notorious… Mr Bankman-Fried’s hyper-rationality sets him apart from everyone. He views people not as good or bad, but as “probability distributions” around a mean… By tolerating the idea that hyper-rationalists cannot make sense of the rules of the game the way most people do, Mr Lewis implicitly asks readers to reconsider whatever they thought they knew about Mr Bankman-Fried. In the court of public opinion, he is already convicted. That’s reason enough to give this book a read." -- Economist"Michael Lewis has an uncanny instinct for a big story, and is now right in the thick of the action again... Reading Lewis can feel like being a passenger in an expertly piloted bobsleigh. You’re moving so fast down the mountain, but you know you’re going to be delivered safe and sound – hot chocolate waiting at the bottom. There is no need to stress, only to thrill to the scenery as it hurtles past." -- New Statesman"In November 2022, FTX collapsed in a matter of days after it suffered billions of dollars in customer withdrawals, sending shockwaves through the crypto world. To make sense of all this, with perfect timing, comes Michael Lewis…Going Infinite is his superbly detailed picture of the man behind it...So where might the money have gone? We still don’t entirely know, though Lewis offers some preliminary balance sheet calculations ? which remain more detailed than anything FTX ever published." -- Evening Strandard"Michael Lewis is the world’s finest financial storyteller… Going Infinite is at its best in describing Bankman-Fried’s rise… Lewis is equally sharp on how the effective altruism movement shifted its priorities, from donating to prevent disease and mortality in the global south to worrying about (putative) trillions of human lives across the galaxy in the distant future." -- Steven Poole - Daily Telegraph"Going Infinite is insanely readable and I devoured it, marvelling at Lewis’s ability to pace, structure and humanise a story about something as dense and unfriendly as crypto… As with previous outings such as Moneyball (nerdy baseball stats), The Big Short (credit default swaps), and Flash Boys (high-frequency trading) Going Infinite shows off Lewis’s peculiar genius for making arcane information as transporting as fantasy fiction. ? Guardian" -- Guardian"Going Infinite is wildly entertaining, surprising multiple times on pretty much every page, but it adds up to a sad story, even a tragedy, for its central character and for all the people who lost so much thanks to his actions… Lewis tries to answer the first question he was asked about Bankman-Fried: who was this guy? The question of his guilt or innocence Lewis leaves to the criminal justice system. I think that’s good practice, given that the trial is happening right now. For what it’s worth, I see no contradiction between the person described in Going Infinite and the things SBF is accused of having done. In fact I think the book makes it easier to understand how and why he did what he allegedly did." -- John Lanchester - London Review of Books

Thanks to its extensive features from thought-provoking questions to global case studies, this textbook will provide you with all the necessary tools to run an introductory management course which preparesTrade ReviewThis highly practical book is relevant to today's dynamic work environment where change, empowerment, leadership, and the entrepreneurial role of managers are core themes. The case studies, insights, and illustrative examples alongside the findings from research make this text a perfect fit for any practice-oriented management course! * Florentin Popescu, Arnhem Business School, The Netherlands *As the world becomes more complex, management becomes increasingly challenging. This heightens the value of effective management. In this easily readable and eminently practical textbook, Sternad demonstrates the necessary tools, knowledge, and skills to succeed in the work environment of the 21st century. * Allan J. Sim, University of Aberdeen, UK *Sternad gets it right with his comprehensive overview and effective structure - one can literally see the line of thought and follow it. The appendix on the history of management alone is worth buying this book! Moreover, the emphasis on the need for self-management as well as the key role of leadership for managing others is commendable. While management has come a long way, it is baffling why so many mistakes are still made. Sternad's book can hopefully fill a gap by stressing the need for consistent excellence in management to achieve organizational goals. * Roland Berberich, Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, China *This is an extremely valuable text for undergraduate, postgraduate and executive development courses in management. It demonstrates the realities of managerial work through real-life challenges and case studies. * Jennifer Nzonzo, Monash University, South Africa *Sternad has created a most valuable learner-centered resource. It provides well-selected, state-of-the-art examples from around the globe focusing on effective managerial practice and people-oriented leadership. Discussing topics such as appreciating diversity, intercultural collaboration, and virtual teamwork, Sternad emphasizes the opportunities and challenges that emerge in our digitalized and globalized environment. In doing so, he illustrates the importance of values-based and ethical behavior for an organization to be sustainably successful. Based on seminal and current research, this textbook offers the latest insights into practical management that students will appreciate and benefit from. * Alain Neher, Charles Sturt University, Australia *Effective Management helps readers to develop key skills for the workplace. I would definitely recommend this book to my students! * Scott Tuppen, Swansea University, UK *An ambitious and brave undertaking - I am particularly impressed by the emphasis on developing learners' management skills and career readiness. This approach injects life into management study, making it an exciting contribution to the discipline which I applaud enthusiastically. * Henry Shi, University of Adelaide, Australia *Effective Management is a well-researched text that provides thoughtful consideration of the application of management theory in practice. Key themes of relevance to managers today are presented in an interesting and accessible manner. The book provides a useful resource for both students on academic programs and practitioners across all sectors. * Dorothy McKee, Ulster University, UK and Dorothy McKee Consulting. *Table of ContentsPART 1: ENHANCING PERSONAL EFFECTIVENESS 1.
