Building Reputational Capital: Strategies for Integrity and Fair Play that Improve the Bottom Line
Kevin T. Jackson Manufacturer: Oxford University Press, USA ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 0195161386 |
Book Description
In the aftermath of scandals such as those at Enron and WorldCom, there is a growing suspicion of the corporate world. For this reason it is more important than ever for firms to maintain a good reputation. In Building Reputational Capital, Kevin T. Jackson offers a practical guide to taking the high road--the only path that leads to lasting success. Based on extensive research and real-world experience, Building Reputational Capital reveals basic principles of integrity and fairness with which firms can build an enduring reputation. More than image, a firm's reputation is a form of capital often neglected in the boardroom and overlooked in conventional analyses of financial statements. Speaking directly to the work experience of real people in practical business settings, Jackson couples each principle with straightforward actions that drive management systems, and he provides tested strategies--from downsizing techniques to e-commerce tips--that cultivate the hidden power of a good reputation. He outlines the advantages of a superior reputation (simply put, people want to work for, invest in, and do business with a company or person with integrity), describes the vital role the firm's leader must play, offers ways to build and protect your reputation on the Internet (from defusing Internet rumors to creating an online community), and shows how to rescue your reputation once disaster hits. Perhaps most important, he shows how to strike the right balance of virtues like authenticity, honesty, responsibility, and stewardship of the environment, employees, and the economy. Highlighted with real-life success stories--from giants like Hewlett-Packard to small firms like Thanksgiving Coffee Company (which invests part of its revenues in the Central American villages in which its beans are grown), Building Reputational Capital offers a simple but effective guide for executives, managers, entrepreneurs, legal professionals, and corporate consultants.Customer Reviews:

Excellent.......2000-05-08
Nice general info, but outdated sales numbers.......1999-01-28
While the book shows great photos of the buildings, and maps of NY, and tells you the year built and/or converted to condo, the statistical data on sold apartments runs 12/96 thru 5/98. Since Manhattan condo prices tend to go up anywhere from 15% to 65% per year, the sales data will always be incorrect -- and you'll have no way to ballpark any "real" numbers.
You MUST buy the Sunday NY Times or search the Sunday NY Times on-line classifieds (it's called nytoday.com) over a period of weeks to accurately determine the asking prices of condos. Forget the sales data in this book and use the book for all other superficial information around choosing neighborhoods and buildings, and viewing apartments.
A final note: don't believe the brokers. They will all tell you that the sellers are all getting their asking prices plus 10% during the typical bidding wars that take place over NYC apartments. Nonsense. Bid what you think the apartment is worth and if they won't sell it to you for that price, move on. There are always apartments going up for sale and the next one will be yours!

Israeli Preoccupations: Dualities of a Confessional Citizen
Haim Chertok Manufacturer: Fordham University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0823215474 Release Date: 1994-01-01 |
Book Description
Ranging from the critical and adversarial to the credulous and celebratory, this collection of articles calculates a running tab of persisten Israeli preoccupations, chiefly, coming to terms with Palestinians, and the conditions facing women in the Jewish state. The essays are not so much "confessional" as they are intelligently and sensitively written in Chertok's own personal voice. Indeed most of his preoccupations are poignant observations are born of the daily quirks, vexations, and beguilements of many years spent awakening and lyind down inside a very particular town in the Negev. In the concluding section of his work, Chertok self-admittedly risks "the saline fate of the Lot's spouse" by concluding with several backward glances at the American Jewish community. In different form, portions of Israeli Preoccupations have appeared in a variety of journals, including Challenge, Congress Monthly, Hadassah, The Jerusalem Post, Jewish Frontier, The Jewish Review, Midstream, The Nation, The New York Times, and Tikkun.

Dollars & Sense for College Students: How NOT to Run Out of Money by Mid-terms (Princeton Review Series)

Amazon.com
Most of us found out from our parents that money doesn't grow on trees, but very few learned much more except by trial and costly error. What if we'd had a book in college that clearly explained how to get, save, and spend money intelligently? Not only would our debt--and our stress--likely be lower, but we'd have developed smart money habits that would serve us well for the rest of our lives. Dollars & Sense for College Students is that book, and no young man or woman should leave home for the first time without it or a trust fund.Ellen Braitman's experience as an assistant editor for Consumer Reports shows: the book is very well organized, the writing is simple and straightforward, and each section is peppered with tips and examples from real people. With chapters such as "Banking 101," Smart Shopping," and "How Not to Run Out of Money," Braitman lets the savvy reader test out of the school of hard knocks.
Some of the advice in Dollars & Sense is especially helpful for those planning their college funding, so it would best be obtained a year or so prior to high school graduation. Still, it is so useful for making it day by day through life on your own that it would help anyone who wonders where the money went at the end of each month. --Rob Lightner
Book Description
Going away to school, everyone gets the same lecture: Only use your credit card in an emergency. Well, a 1:00 A.M. pizza is an emergency, right? And a new snowboard? After a semester or two of "emergencies," not to mention the phone bill, the meal plan, text-books, car repairs, rent, and spring-break airline tickets, you may find yourself in a serious mess.

Remembrances and Celebrations: A Book of Eulogies, Elegies, Letters, and Epitaphs

Finding the right words at a time of loss can understandably cause a eulogist much angst and apprehension. How does one commemorate and honor a person whose life feels like a miracle and whose passing still feels incomprehensible? Fortunately, this book of eulogies can offer guidance as well as inspiration for the bereaved. For example, Wallace Stegner writes a specific yet universal memory to his mother Hilda: "I have a clear mental image of your pursed lips and your crinkling eyes, and I know that nothing I can say will persuade you that I was ever less than you thought me."Included here are the wrenchingly beautiful eulogies to great loves, including Lillian Hellman's final words to the love of her life, Dashiell Hammett, and Henry Miller's tribute to his legendary lover, Anaïs Nin. And it must have been with bottomless sorrow that Edward Kennedy mustered his tender and deeply personal tribute to his second slain brother, Robert Kennedy. These are all heartfelt and eloquent words, certain to comfort and aid the eulogist. --Gail Hudson
