Book Synopsis David Packard's Legacy on American Military Policy by : Benjamin M. Smith
Download or read book David Packard's Legacy on American Military Policy written by Benjamin M. Smith and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this paper, I will examine the impact David Packard had on the military and whether those impacts were positive or negative. I will start by reviewing his upbringing and background, answering the question: 'Who was David Packard?' It is important to note his values and beliefs based on his experience and how they influenced his actions serving in his government capacities. Then I will focus on the history surrounding his government roles and key contributions while he served in them. This will frame the environment in which he led policy dicussions and decisions form 1969 to 1986. Finally, with that as the context, I can analyze his impact and ultimately his legacy on the Pentagon and the U.S. military. Not only whether it was positive or negative, but more importantly to what extent he accomplished his goals and what factors may have enabled or constrained his efforts."--Abstract.
Book Synopsis Bill & Dave by : Michael Shawn Malone
Download or read book Bill & Dave written by Michael Shawn Malone and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2007 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive history of Hewlett-Packard and its legendary founders, based on unprecedented access to private archivesThis is the most authoritative version ever of the most famous start-up story in business history. In 1938, working out of a small garage in Palo Alto, California, two young Stanford graduates named Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard built their first product, an audio oscillator. It was the start not only of a legendary company but of an entire way of life in Silicon Valley'and, ultimately, our modern digital age. Others have written about the rise of Hewlett-Packard, including Packard himself in a bestselling memoir. But acclaimed journalist Michael S. Malone is the first to get the full story, based on unlimited and exclusive access to corporate and private archives, along with hundreds of employee interviews. Malone draws on his new material to show how some of the most influential products of our time were invented, and how a culture of innovation led HP to unparalleled success for decades. He also shows what was really behind the groundbreaking management philosophy'the HP Way'that put people ahead of products or profits. There have been attempts in recent years to discredit the HP Way as soft and outdated. But Malone argues that the HP Way was a hard-nosed business philosophy that combined simple objectives, trust in employees to make the right choices, and ruthless self-appraisal. It created an innovative and ferociously competitive company'arguably the world's greatest company. This business adventure story will be perfect for entrepreneurs, young managers, and students, not to mention the tens of thousands of current and former HP employees.

Download or read book Backfire written by Peter Burrows and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2003-07-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insider's look at the internal turmoil at one of the world's premier high-tech companies This is the inside story of Hewlett-Packard Company's struggle to regain its former glory, and of the high-stakes battle between CEO Carly Fiorina and family scion Walter Hewlett over how best to achieve that goal. For decades, HP was admired not only for its innovative products and soaring stock price, but for its egalitarian corporate culture and father-knows-best integrity. Backfire explains how the company fell on hard times, recounts the historic decision that made Fiorina the world's top-ranking female executive, and brings to life the backlash that resulted when she tried to impose her charismatic salesmanship on the aging icon. Top BusinessWeek journalist Peter Burrows gives the dramatic blow-by-blow of Hewlett's effort to kill Fiorina's most controversial move of all, her $19 billion purchase of rival Compaq Computer. Fiorina won by a whisker, after the most expensive proxy fight in history and a dramatic lawsuit that accused the company of illegally fixing the vote. This gripping, ongoing story includes fascinating personalities and dramatic boardroom and courtroom drama. Peter Burrows (Alameda, CA) has been a technology reporter for BusinessWeek for nine years and has covered the HP saga from the start. The department editor for BusinessWeek's computer coverage, he has been the principal chronicler of Fiorina's tenure at HP, and has written three cover stories on the subject. He has also written numerous other cover stories, including looks at Steve Jobs's Apple Computer and Sun Microsystems' Scott McNealy.
