Almost 70% of mergers fail, yet deals are essential for growing world-class companies. Therefore they must use all the tools and techniques at their disposal to improve their chances of success. Applying the techniques advocated in this book can help managers beat the odds – and employees themselves – to have an impact on whether a deal will be successful both for the company and for themselves. This book looks at the process of a merger or acquisition and pinpoints the areas where business intelligence can raise the odds of success in each phase of the deal. Using techniques developed by governmental intelligence services and a wide range of recent case studies, quotations and anecdotes, the expert authors from the renowned Cass Business School show how to build success into any M&A situation. The first edition of Intelligent M&A was written in 2006 and published in 2007. This preceded the peak year (2007) of the last merger wave, including the excesses in a number of industries and deals (e.g., financial services with RBS’ dramatically failed acquisition of ABN AMRO as a key example), and the global economic downturn that led to a completely new way of operating for many industries and companies. Therefore, there is a need to update the book to incorporate not just more relevant and up-to-date case studies of deals but to show the ‘new’ way of operating in a post-Lehman environment. Chapters will be comprehensively re-written and populated with new and relevant case studies. Получить ссылку |
Raamat lastest. Osho. Noorte sisemise vabaduse ja intelligentsuse arendamine
Автор: Osho
Год издания:
"Vaata lapse silmadesse – midagi sugavamat pole olemas. Lapse silmad on nagu pohjatu sugavik. /Osho/Lastele on omane ehe vabadus. Nad on roomsameelsed, mangulised ja loomu poolest loovad. Kuid kasvatamise kaigus surutakse neid omadusi maha, et lapsed oleksid sonakuulelikud ning sobituksid voimalikult hasti uhiskonda. Ja kuigi iga vanemate polvkond kinnitab, et nemad ei tee oma lastega samu vigu, mis tehti nendega, sunnivad nad paratamatult lastele peale puudusi ja piiranguid, mille nad ise parisid oma vanematelt.See raamat kutsub ules „laste vabastusliikumisele”, et purustada vanad kaitumismustrid ja panna lastega suhtlemisele uus alus. See on teejuht taiskasvanutele, et nad teadvustaksid, kui palju nende kaitumine lapsi mojutab. Me opime, millal laste eest hoolitseda ja neid kaitsta ning millal lasta neil omaette tegutseda, et nad oskaksid elust roomu tunda ja saavutaksid oma korgeima potentsiaali.Osho (1931–1990) on uks tuntumaid ja provokatiivsemaid tanapaeva mustikuid. Londoni Sunday Times nimetas Oshot uheks „20. sajandi tegijaks”; kirjanik Tom Robbins aga „koige ohtlikumaks inimeseks parast Jeesus Kristust”. Tema opetuste moju on uha kasvanud ning jouab vaimsete otsijateni koikjal maailmas."
