Download or read book Market Sensing Today written by Melvin Prince and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2015-08-03 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept and framework of market sensing was introduced by George Day more than 20 years ago into the strategic marketing literature—especially the philosophy of the market-driven organization. Market sensing can be considered an expression of a company’s capabilities to scan the external environment. It does this by using real time data and intelligence to understand business or uncertain changes, to meet the current and future needs of the market, increase customer value, and outperform competitors. Market sensing enables managers to resist complacency, as well as to exploit opportunities and to design appropriate competitive strategies in order to remain successful in today’s uncertain, rapidly changing, and hypercompetitive market. Market Sensing Today is essential reading in the marketing discipline, given the rapidly escalating innovative developments in market sensing techniques. This book of essays by acknowledged experts in the field fills an important knowledge gap and provides a realistic basis for strategy. It is replete with real-life examples of market sensing that illustrate actionable ideas for immediate impact that will improve organizational learning and accelerate growth.

Book Synopsis Handbook of Research on Entrepreneurship in Professional Services by : Markus Reihlen
Download or read book Handbook of Research on Entrepreneurship in Professional Services written by Markus Reihlen and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÔProfessional service firms are critical agents of contemporary economies and understanding them has become a central focus of recent scholarship. This very timely and well organized Handbook brings together several leading scholars who explore how we might think and theorize about professional service firms and their entrepreneurial behaviours. The Handbook will become a key source for the growing community of researchers in this area.Õ Ð Royston Greenwood, University of Alberta, Canada ÔFor too long, both researchers and practitioners have presumed that professional service firms follow the status quo when they should better understand how these professionals set the rules for globalization. This Handbook reminds us that professionals are as much the shock-troops of capitalism as the multinational corporations that they serve. As this Handbook shows, the leading firms successfully compete with each other by fostering entrepreneurship and innovation in order to service an institutional system that undergirds the international economy.Õ Ð Christopher McKenna, University of Oxford, UK Professional services are increasingly seen as an important foundation for future economic growth and prosperity. Yet research on innovative and entrepreneurial processes in professional services has been surprisingly scarce. This Handbook provides a collection of original contributions from leading scholars outlining the current stock of knowledge in the area as well as providing directions for further research. The expert contributors discuss entrepreneurship and innovation from a number of different perspectives, including the entrepreneurial professional team, the entrepreneurial firm and the institutional environment. The first part of the book looks at the challenges of entrepreneurship specific to the professional service firm while the second explores the creation and exploitation of entrepreneurial opportunities in the professional service team. Part III turns to the organization and Part IV to the management and growth of the entrepreneurial professional service firm. The final part discusses the interplay between professions, firms and the institutional environment. Researchers, scholars and PhD students in the areas of entrepreneurship and professional service firms along with advanced students of management will find this volume of great value.
Book Synopsis Critical Thinking for Marketers, Volume I by : Milan Frankl
Download or read book Critical Thinking for Marketers, Volume I written by Milan Frankl and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2016-12-02 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All marketing actions, whether preceded by formal or informal decision-making processes, are based on what philosophers call “arguments.” An argument is a set of related statements comprising premises and a conclusion. Ideally, premises give an audience good reasons for accepting your argument’s conclusion. In marketing, these “conclusions” are normative decisions about what an organization should do, for example, raise prices by five percent, add a new sales territory or, perhaps, change the marketing communications mix to invest more in digital and less in print. The premises are the rationale behind why the organization should take such actions. Critical Thinking for Marketers: Learn How to Think, Not What to Think provides information and guidelines on not only how to develop good arguments, but also what it means to develop a good argument. For example, the book describes two basic kinds of arguments—deductive and inductive—and how to examine whether such arguments are “good” or not. To do this, the book explains 60 logical fallacies—or errors in reasoning—that marketers should avoid. Additionally, the authors’ several “Think Better” discussions examine how fields such as philosophy, behavioral economics, and marketing theory have informed the principles of critical thinking in marketing.
Book Synopsis The Management Idea Factory by : Stefan Heusinkveld
Download or read book The Management Idea Factory written by Stefan Heusinkveld and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there has traditionally been considerable field-level attention on how consultants market their ideas and practices, there is still a lack of research that discusses the earlier intra-organizational phases in the development process. While the present literature provides important insights that enhance our understanding of consulting, the consultancy industry, and the way that consultants present their ideas and services on the market for management solutions, we know relatively little about the way knowledge-based innovations develop within consultancy firms and the mechanisms that shape the intra-organizational evolution of these ideas and practices. This book seeks to address this gap by revealing how the development of new ideas and practices takes shape in consultancies. The work addresses questions such as: In which way do consultancies sense the contemporary market needs? How do new ideas and practices become established within a consultancy? How do consultancies seek to maintain their repertoire? And what role do these new ideas and practices play in their assignments? To provide more insight into these different aspects of knowledge-based innovation in consultancies, the book draws on and integrates literature from diverse relevant fields such as product innovation and market orientation, but also uses institutional and practice-based perspectives. The research presented in this book can be seen in the light of emerging research into ‘knowledge-based innovation’ and ‘new concept development’ that concentrate on empirically studying how knowledge entrepreneurs seek to develop commercially viable ideas and practices that have the potential to have a significant impact on management and organizational praxis.
Download or read book PRODUCT MANAGEMENT written by Prabhu TL and published by NestFame Creations Pvt Ltd.. This book was released on with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered who helped create the digital experiences you enjoy, such as watching a movie on a streaming service or chatting with a coworker on your company's messaging system? The answer is that many people were involved in the creation of each product, but the product manager is one of the most important parts of any digital experience's development. If you're a creative person who enjoys developing new products and services for a wide range of people, a career in product management could be right up your alley. So, what exactly is product management, and what makes a great product manager? Learn how to get started in a product management role, how PMs fit into various teams, and how to determine if a career in product management is right for you in this book. Even though product management is a critical part of any product development team, it hasn't always been a formalised position in digital companies for a long time. It is generally accepted that product management refers to a position within a product development team tasked with overseeing the smooth running of all phases involved in the creation of a product. Product managers are typically in charge of implementing product management practises. This includes developing and presenting product and feature concept pitches Product development is a collaborative effort between engineering and design teams to bring the product to life. A key difference between product and project management is this: product management focuses on the overall product vision, while project management focuses on the specifics of each individual project. As a product manager, you're like the executive chef of your company's product. Even though they work for a company that has a CEO, they don't own the restaurant they work in. Their overall success in the company's outputs and products, as well as shaping the vision of each feature that helps them achieve their goals and satisfy their customers, is, however, their responsibility. When it comes to launching new products and services, product managers play an important role. At the intersection of UX or user experience, engineering, and business leaders, they serve as the glue that keeps the shared product vision together. A product manager's most important role is to identify the product's success criteria; outline the product strategy; and explain how it will affect the customer and the company's objectives. The lack of a product owner's voice would make it difficult for teams to navigate the many competing interests in both large and small organisations. Despite the fact that all product management roles and product teams have similar responsibilities, there are a few nuances that are specific to the titles and descriptions of each position. It is common to come across titles that indicate different levels of product management experience, such as CEO, Product Owner, and Associate Product Manager.
Book Synopsis Complex, Intelligent, and Software Intensive Systems by : Leonard Barolli
Download or read book Complex, Intelligent, and Software Intensive Systems written by Leonard Barolli and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 994 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents scientific interactions between the three interwoven and challenging areas of research and development of future ICT-enabled applications: software, complex systems and intelligent systems. Software intensive systems heavily interact with other systems, sensors, actuators, and devices, as well as other software systems and users. More and more domains involve software intensive systems, e.g. automotive, telecommunication systems, embedded systems in general, industrial automation systems and business applications. Moreover, web services offer a new platform for enabling software intensive systems. Complex systems research focuses on understanding overall systems rather than their components. Such systems are characterized by the changing environments in which they act, and they evolve and adapt through internal and external dynamic interactions. The development of intelligent systems and agents features the use of ontologies, and their logical foundations provide a fruitful impulse for both software intensive systems and complex systems. Research in the field of intelligent systems, robotics, neuroscience, artificial intelligence, and cognitive sciences is a vital factor in the future development and innovation of software intensive and complex systems.
Book Synopsis Market Orientation by : Martin Hingley
Download or read book Market Orientation written by Martin Hingley and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marketing orientation is both the key objective of most food producers and their biggest challenge. Connecting food and agricultural production with the changing needs and aspirations of the customer provides the means to ensure competitive advantage, resilience and added value in what you produce. But market orientation is not something that you can just buy in or bolt on to what you do. Market orientation is a matter of changing the culture of your organisation; finding ways of learning more about your customers and understanding their needs; changing your development and reward systems to educate your employees; it may also involve significant changes to your production processes. This comprehensive collection of original research explores the challenges and opportunities associated with market orientation along the food supply chain; from the animal feed industry to meat retailing and from organic foods to old world wines. All the chapters provide exceptional insight into understanding how market orientation can benefit food suppliers and how it is essential for long-term success.
