Book Synopsis Unchain Your Corporation: From Supply Chains to B2B Networks by : Vivek Sood
Download or read book Unchain Your Corporation: From Supply Chains to B2B Networks written by Vivek Sood and published by Global Supply Chain Group. This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHO IS THIS BOOK FOR? (see www.unchainyourcorporation.com for a lot more information and testimonials about this book) We are entering an era of super specialization and exceedingly targeted communication. Like other high level professionals, I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to articulate my target audience very carefully and accurately. Now there are potentially 4 scenarios. If you are the target audience, then everything ticks perfect. If you are not the target audience, but you know somebody who can possibly use the book and its core message, in which case I would encourage you to recommend the book to him/her. Alternately, you might be in a position where you are not yet in the target audience, but you are aspiring to be, in which case this book might prove valuable to you. If you are in none of those 4 positions, then regrettably this book is not going to be to your liking. So who is the target audience of this book? At Global Supply Chain Group, since our foundation in January 2000, we have worked with CEOs, boards, executives and senior decision makers in large to mid-size companies around the world, helping them achieve positive and measurable business transformations. Needless to say, our experience has entirely been with these individuals and they are the target audience for our books and intellectual property. More specifically, our ideal clients and partners as well as the ideal readers for this book would be the influential and resourceful executives, and the CEOs who expect a big positive change, a big delta in results, in profits, and revenues as a result of business transformations. Thus, these are the companies and executives who do not wish to keep asking what the next step is. They acknowledge the internal challenges and changes in the external marketplace as their first step. They understand the need for change. They are prepared to take the action. Most of them are large businesses with huge manufacturing, distribution, logistics, inventory and other physical infrastructure in their footprints. They know that a business transformation every few years is required in order to keep the business relevant with the trends in the market place, with the trends in technology, consumer taste as well as the changes in the political legal environment. They want to maximize their profitability while minimizing their risk by using a tried and tested methodology for business transformations, and they create long term partnerships with best-of-breed thought leaders and leverage those partnerships for positive business transformations over a period of time.
Book Synopsis OUTSOURCING 3.0 - Outperform: Outsource: Outprofit by : Vivek Sood
Download or read book OUTSOURCING 3.0 - Outperform: Outsource: Outprofit written by Vivek Sood and published by Jardine Thompson. This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Besides the 3 O’s of Outperforming & Outprofiting via Outsourcing, it also signifies that we are now into the third generation of outsourcing. In the first generation, before the 80’s, outsourcing was mainly cost driven. In the second generation, in the 90’s, arrived the capabilities and value driven outsourcing. The key focus was on how to extract the maximum value out of an outsourcing relationship. Only recently, in the third generation are we moving into the strategy driven outsourcing paradigm. This subtle shift is leading the business leaders to question that very underpinnings of a modern organisation. The key focus is “How can outsourcing assist in driving even more strategic advantage to our business?”. Let us have a quick exercise to warm up. Can you guess what the most outsourced service on earth today is? Think of all potential services in your company that can be outsourced; cast your mind far and wide. Try not to miss anything. Once you have thought of all the possibilities, make the guess again. What is the most outsourced service on earth today? If you guessed call centres, I would have to say no. In fact, if you guessed any of the following services – logistics, IT, sales training, fleet management or payrolls – all popular services to be outsourced, I would not nod my head once. The answer, which lies somewhere in this chapter, is going to be a surprise to you. Whether your guess is correct or not, there is a lot more to be explored. You will come to recognise how ubiquitous outsourcing has become in the modern-day commercial world, and how to keep your eyes open to recognise situations that are amenable to outsourcing. The full list of all outsourceable activities within a company may include an element of surprise. You will also know the answer to the second part of the $483 billion question, i.e. when you must NOT outsource. In our work, we frequently encounter people who are dogmatic about outsourcing – on both sides of the fence. We have worked closely with directors serving on boards of large organisations who are against outsourcing. On the other hand, we also talk to people at all levels in companies who would rather outsource than do the tasks internally. We have come across situations where companies are reluctant to outsource, and where that would have been the best course of action.

There is no doubt business networks are powerful beyond belief and useful beyond comparison. Hugh Robertson, Ex Director - Commodities and Risk, Weston Milling

Book Synopsis How to Build an Awesome Professional Network by : Mike Fishbein
Download or read book How to Build an Awesome Professional Network written by Mike Fishbein and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After realizing the massive importance of building a strong professional network, I began scouring the web, Amazon, and bookstores for resources. I found there were resources on related topics, such as interpersonal communication, but not many great resources on business networking specifically. I began asking everyone I know who has had a successful career, built a successful business, or simply knows a lot of people for their advice on how to build a professional network. After compiling the best advice I received, studying every relevant book and resource I could find, experimenting, and practicing, I learned a lot about how to effectively make new contacts and build relationships. I'm extremely excited to be sharing everything I've learned along the way in this book! For better or for worse, what you know, what you can do, or even your credentials, are often not as important as who you know. Your relationships can often be even more important than your qualifications! People prefer to do business with people they like and trust. Your relationships and professional network are extremely valuable in growing your business or developing your career. Whether it's forming partnerships for your company, finding a new job, acquiring clients, fundraising, seeking mentors, or recruiting talent for your company, your relationships can have an extreme positive or negative impact on your success. Your professional network can also be an amazing source for knowledge, information, expertise, and advice. For people who hate networking, it can seem like a chore. I hated networking too when I first started. After realizing how important it was, meeting some amazing people, and benefiting tremendously from it, I began to truly enjoy it. Networking doesn't have to be a dry exercise the way you may picture it if you don't make it so. I've compiled all of my lessons learned over years of practice study in to this book! I've written it to be completely thorough, yet to-the-point enough as to not waste your time. It's a combination of core philosophies as well as actionable tips and techniques. The philosophies and tactics I describe in this book have benefited my career tremendously.

Book Synopsis Global Supply Chain Group's Guide to Supply Chain Governance by : Vivek Sood
Download or read book Global Supply Chain Group's Guide to Supply Chain Governance written by Vivek Sood and published by Global Supply Chain Group. This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boards are Remarkably Good At Corporate Governance, and Yet Face the Flak For It Everybody who has spent any time with boards of directors lives and breathes corporate governance. The corporate governance process is designed and run with almost military precision to give effect to the legislative requirements and commercial exigencies with only a few board meetings a year. Due to the focused attention of some of the best people in the corporate world and significant budgetary allocation, the governance of what falls within the four walls of the company itself is done with a remarkable efficiency almost all the time. So, the natural question is why then such a lot of hoopla in the press about corporate governance. Where does it fail for the 3Ps (the press, the politicians, and the preachers from the NGOs) to make such a lot of noise about it? This question merits a little deeper exploration because almost all failures of corporate governance lie elsewhere. After visiting with numerous boards and having spent countless hours past midnight preparing board presentations, papers and submissions, we have become convinced that lack of corporate governance is not the real culprit in most cases. That infamy lies at the behest of supply chain governance.
Book Synopsis Trust-based Recommendations in Multi-layer Networks by : Claudia Heß
Download or read book Trust-based Recommendations in Multi-layer Networks written by Claudia Heß and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The huge interest in social networking applications – Friendster.com, for example, has more than 40 million users – led to a considerable research interest in using this data for generating recommendations. Especially recommendation techniques that analyze trust networks were found to provide very accurate and highly personalized results. The main contribution of this thesis is to extend the approach to trust-based recommendations, which up to now have been made for unlinked items such as products or movies, to linked resources, in particular documents. Therefore, a second type of network, namely a document reference network, is considered apart from the trust network. This is, for example, the citation network of scientific publications or the hyperlink graph of webpages. Recommendations for documents are typically made by reference-based visibility measures which consider a document to be the more important, the more often it is referenced by important documents. These two networks, as well as further networks such as organization networks, are integrated in a multi-layer network. This architecture allows for combining classical measures for the visibility of a document with trust-based recommendations, giving trust-enhanced visibility measures. Moreover, an approximation approach is introduced which considers the uncertainty induced by duplicate documents. These measures are evaluated in simulation studies. The trust-based recommender system for scientific publications SPRec implements a two-layer architecture and provides personalized recommendations via a web interface.
