Good but..........2007-07-20

This is a good book but not great. I prefer PMP Flashcard Quicklet by Paul Sanghera, which is very self contained and comprehensive. This book by Rita has quite a few errors and too many references to Rita's other books (not self contained)...as a second flashcard book, it's fine.

Worth the purchase, but a bit strange in execution.......2007-07-03

This review is for the audio cd flashcards. I am a recent PMP, and this was one of the tools that I used to pass the certification exam. For the price, this is a worthwhile purchase for those that will be studying for the exam and will spend a lot of time in the car.

At the beginning of the first disk, the explanation states that the cds should not be transferred to any device, which sounds like it includes transferring to MP3 players. There is no encoding restriction to prevent you from treating this like a normal cd and saving it to your hard drive or MP3 player, but in this day and age, it's a strange thing to hear. It's unclear if that's actually the intent, but it certainly comes across that way.

Rita tries to break up the monotony by telling anecdotes and tips at the beginning of each section, but this gets tedious quickly. Some of her jokes fall flat, and it becomes excruciating upon repeated plays. In addition, some of this is straight from her PMP Exam Prep book.

The bulk of the cds is recorded by a voice actor has chapters divided up by the knowledge area. The voice actor asks a question, and then there is a brief pause so the listener can attempt to come up with the proper answer. The pause is followed by the answer...most of the time. Some questions are asked, but in some cases the voice actor states that the answer is too long to be repeated, which just comes across as disruptive to the flow of learning.

In this day and age, it's bizarre to hear that the audio recordings can't ethically be allowed on a portable media device. The CDs could benefit from having some of the conversational fat cut out of them, and it would be good to hear answers to all of the questions posed. That having been said, this is a worthwhile purchase if you will be studying for certification and will be in a place to hear the cds. It's a fairly inexpensive study aid, and it certainly helped me earn my certification.

Useless....Just take good notes.......2007-06-26

This product is not worthy of your money....

These are just global review of general topics. If you read the book, you won't need these. If you need these, you won't pass the test. Don't fall into Rita's clever web of buying her stuff...which is repackaged material. It's all in the book....

Useless.......2007-06-12

There was not enough product information on Amazon site, or else
I would not have bought this item. This is not what I expected.
When you say "Flash Cards", my understanding was that it would be
index cards that I could thumb-tack on the walls in my office/room.

Unfortunately I didn't realize this was not the study material for the PMP Certification test after Sept 25, 2005. Do not order the 4th edition as it is now out of date.

Bit expensive for 2 CDs, but very useful.......2005-09-19

The package contained 2 Audio CDs. They are very well made. They are in the format of questions and answers by each of the knoweledge areas of PMP exam. I would suggest using these after going through PMBOK and possibly another book for the exam. I used these towards the last couple of weeks. For the price charged, the CDs seem somewhwat expensive. But there is no other similar product.

I purchased the CD to listen in my car while commuting, but the CD doesn't work in my car. I have an older CD player and my car doesn't read a CD-R format. Sadly, this defeats my purpose. For the price, they should be delivering a higher quality product

You may remember the definitions forever after listening........2003-04-14

The CD contains numerous definitions and a few basic concepts read aloud by a professional speaker.

I received this audio CD when I purchased the book 'PMP Exam Prep' by Rita Mulcahy and PM Fastrack (software). This audio CD is excellent in mastering the definitions and basic concepts from the 'Guide to the PMBOK' by PMI which is the official syllabus for the PMP. One of the main problems in passing the PMP is the situational questions that comprise a majority of the questions on the test. These questions seem very subjective but once you understand the definitions thoroughly, half the problem is solved.

That's where this audio CD comes in. After you have had a chance to read the 'PMP Exam Prep' by Rita Mulcahy, you can start listening to this audio CD whenever you have a few minutes. I played the 87 minute CD for about half an hour each night before going to bed. I have successfully used this technique in a lot of tests where you need to memorize definitions. If you play the CD about 2-3 times before taking the test, you should be able to recall the definitions very easily. If you play it a couple more times, I am guessing you will never forget the definitions.

The CD has a few basic project management concepts on top of the definitions. The voice is not that of Rita Mulcahy but of a professional speaker. The price seems a bit [high] and some people have preferred the book version of 'Hot Topics' for the value provided. I have personally reviewed another product, 'PMP Exam Challenge' by J. Leroy Ward in book form and liked it also. But the superiority of HEARING these definitions on an audio CD is hard to match in any book. This is because when you both HEAR and READ a concept or definition, it is more likely to permanently etch itself in your brain than otherwise. Of course, the strongest etching occurs when you use audio, video, book, and some form of interactivity in your learning.

If you get a chance, read my review on 'PMP Exam Prep' where I wrote about my PMP exam experience. You may find it helpful in preparing for the PMP exam. ... Rita Mulcahy is President & Founder of RMC Project Management that published this audio CD. The best of luck to you in passing the PMP exam!

Listen and learn.......2002-05-28

This 87 minute CD covers 650 hot topics in audio format in the same manner as the author's "Hot Topics: Flashcards for Passing the PMP Exam". It's a painless way to learn the key terms and their official definitions, which you will encounter on the PMP exam. If used in conjunction with the paper flashcards you'll have a powerful two-pronged approach to preparing for the exam. The terms and definitions are up-to-date and reflect the content of the PMBOK 2000 edition.

Helpful memory jogger for project managers on the move.......2003-07-18

I really liked the flashcard design - small, lightweight, spiral bound. Perfect for studying in the plane, train, or automobile (as long as you are not driving!).

I used this tool to help me prepare (and more importantly pass) the PMP exam. Rita's material was very helpful.

Fun and effective.......2002-05-28

This 643 page learning aid is simple to use and highly effective. It's in near pocket-size format, with an upper spiral binding to use as flip cards. On the face of each card is a term, and on the reverse is a definition. It's designed for you to use simple, effective memory drills to recognize key terms you will encounter on the PMP exam and the correct definition. The definitions are usually in bullet style and are consistent with the correct exam answers.

Key points: it reflects the PMBOK 2000 edition and also covers professional responsibility topics. You may want to also get the audio tape titled "Hot Topics: Audio Way to Get Ready for the PMP Exam" and use both as an extra effective learning strategy.

Customer Reviews:

An interesting book........2005-10-20

A well written, exacting book full of ideas: as Kotler said, 'business is about 2 things only: innovation and marketing, and if you miss one you aren't in business!' I loved Mr. Jaworski's pioneering article in the Multinational Business Review that went worldwide on Nation and Global Branding. This Marketer is both an innovator and marketer- and the book is a must despite its 2 year age! Buy it!!!!

Excellent, Very Well Done!.......2005-07-28

A very well done piece of work to say the least. Lots of pages, but the concepts are very focused. A very real and applicable book for everyday marketing and brand strategy; as well as a top notch brand management operations guide. For evolution planning and complex marketing planning one of the ebst ever written! I highly encourage getting this book.

Fortune 500 Brand Manager's Guide.......2005-07-20

Simply a must have for any 'major league' brand manager. In a world where skill is the underlying key to brand and marketing success this book is simply the best I have ever come across. I also suggest any of Jaworski's articles and ideation papers- there are many. He has also co-written with the best like Paul Temporal and Al Ries, so he is very generally and widely accepted. This book mades some 13 predictions and scenarios that ll came true over the last 4 years, and the author was right on target- Ford-Firestone,
Gateway, and the re-rise of Steve Jobs and Apple. I often go back to my copy when I see another one proven true- or simply need help.
As a global brand manager, this book simply is the one I live by for Marketing and Brand Management. It is from a brand manager for brand managers- big or small league... for those of us working with millions to billions.

Never leave your brand without it.

Book Description

Why do some companies thrive while others in the same industry languish? How can a struggling firm achieve higher annual earnings? What allows new corporations to become successful in highly competitive industries? In this book, now updated and expanded, Sharon Oster shows that combining a sound understanding of economic and managerial principles can make a striking difference in the quality of the strategic planning of an organization and provide guidelines for effective corporate strategies. The third edition of Modern Competitive Analysis includes new material on game theory, added value analysis, and strategic intent. Examples are drawn from modern network industries and more attention is paid to newly deregulated markets. Unusually broad in scope, with many examples from large and small companies, service firms, manufacturers, foreign and American organizations, as well as non-profit corporations, the book emphasizes an economic approach to strategic planning, using the most recent theories to illuminate situations faced by businesses today. Covering new and important areas in economics not treated in other management and strategic planning books, and couched in clear terms that make these concepts especially accessible, Modern Competitive Analysis is a fundamental resource to the managers of today and tomorrow.

Simply Fantastic!.......2005-11-13

Excellent introduction to the field. Will get your basics sound. Worth every penny I spent on the book.

Just buy it!

Great textbook on competitive strategy.......2001-04-08

Excellent textbook on competitive strategy using an economics approach. The first edition complemented my business and economics studies at grad school. Includes a chapter on regulatory (public policy) impacts on business; a topic usually missing from strategy texts. Shows how a 'bill becomes a law' from the business/market perspective !

Required at Chicago GSM.......1999-08-04

An excellent MBA-level textbook introduction to the principles of competitive strategy, with clear explanations and definitions of basic concepts. Especially good if you feel like you need a better grounding in business-level strategy.

Book Description

The goal of this report is to assist managers in gauging a company's financial performance vis-a-vis firms competing in the same sector, at the global level. In particular, this report covers BUMI MODERN PT., SURABAYA, Indonesia. With the globalization of markets, greater foreign competition, and the reduction of entry barriers, it becomes all the more important to benchmark a company's performance against other firms on a worldwide basis. Doing so, however, is not an obvious task. First, one needs to find firms competing in the same sector. Second, one needs to control for exchange rate volatility. Finally, one needs to use comparable financial standards. This report overcomes these issues and gives full financial benchmarks vis-a-vis worldwide competitors who are present in the same narrow industrial classification. Benchmarks cover assets, liabilities, income and ratios. Since our reports are printed on demand, the statistics reported are for the latest quarter and are the most up to date available (4 reports are produced each year). Each report provides over 100 statistics and 40 graphs to the reader.

Book Description

Are the combined human resources at BUMI MODERN TBK. PT. productive? There is no absolute answer to this question. This report considers the extent to which the company's labor deployment indicators differ from global benchmarks. In this report we consider forecasts of differences between labor ratios and the resulting return on this human investment compared to global benchmarks; the estimation of such differences is commonly called a "gap analysis." What is the ratio of short-term and long-term assets to employee? What are typical capital-labor ratios? How different are these ratios to companies serving the same link in the value chain? What are the average sales and net profits per employee compared to global benchmarks? These and over 50 other indicators of labor productivity are considered in this report. The report does so by going beyond traditional analyses by considering companies competing in the same or similar industrial classification at a global level. The goal of this report, therefore, is to assist consultants, human resource managers, strategic planners, and corporate officers in gauging estimates of a company's human resource indicators compared to firms competing or participating in the same economic sector, at the global level. This report is not about whether a particular company or industry has performed well or poorly in the past or will do so in the future. With the globalization of markets, greater foreign competition, and the reduction of entry barriers, it becomes all the more important to benchmark a company's human resource indicators against other firms on a worldwide basis. Doing so, however, is not an obvious task. First, one needs to find firms competing in the same sector, but not necessarily competing directly with the company in local markets. These firms should not be perceived, therefore, to be direct competitors to the company in question, but simply those that have been classified by various sources (e.g. EDGAR or similar foreign filings), as competing to serve customers in the same link of the value chain, or broad industrial classification, as identified by SIC, NAICS or similar codes. Second, given the international nature of the task, one needs to control for exchange rate volatility. Finally, one needs use comparable financial standards. This report overcomes these issues and gives full human resources benchmarks vis-a-vis worldwide competitors who are present in the same narrow industrial classification. Benchmarks cover labor-asset ratios, labor-liability ratios, and labor-income ratios.

Book Description

Though we heavily rely on historical performance, the figures reported in this report are not historical but are forecasts and projections for the coming fiscal year. The forecasts are updated quarterly. This particular report was updated in the last quarter. In order to maintain comparability over time and across companies and countries, we use an index system. In the case of a firm's assets, we treat the total assets as equaling 100, irrespective of the value of the local currency. All other assets are then calculated as a percent from total assets. In this way, the structure of the firm's assets can be easily interpreted and compared with international benchmarks. For liabilities, total liabilities and equity are indexed to equal to 100. For the income statement, total revenue is indexed to equal 100, and all other figures are calculated as a percent of these figures. Ratios are projected using raw financial statistics and, as ratios, are therefore comparable. The source(s) for the various raw statistics include public filings, corporate releases, and various other data sources.
Given a company's financial structure, the resulting figures are benchmarked across "leading competitors". In choosing the leading competitors, Icon Group chooses only those firms with sound financial situations or those not undergoing radical restructuring, or where random volatility, mergers, or bankruptcy affects financial performance.
Since the calculation of competitors' benchmarks proceeds in a similar fashion, but are aggregated across all competitors, one can directly conduct a financial gap analysis. Here, Icon Group graphically reports, for each part of the financial statement, the larger gaps that the firm has vis-a-vis the leading competitors. A gap need not be a bad sign. Rather, it is simply a substantial difference that might merit further attention or signal a firm's relative strength or weakness for t
