Strategic Alliances: How to Negotiate, Influence and Deliver Results- DVD

Free Online Preview

Whether to beat stiff competition in your market, grow customer satisfaction, or pare your bottom line, strategic alliances are increasingly vital to your organization's success. Yet as many as two-thirds of new alliances fail to live up to expectations. Cisco Systems, widely recognized as a global leader in alliance value creation, has developed an effective framework to identify promising new alliances and then structure alliance relationships to optimize their outcome. Mr. Steinhilber explains the many factors that come into play when deciding whether to proceed with a strategic alliance: the investment required, the competitive landscape, market timing, your organization's own product lines and skill set. And once you've decided to strike the deal, Steinhilber describes the formal and informal mechanisms you need to put in place—to persuade your partner to act for mutual benefit, how to overcome the inevitable rough patches in the relationship, and how to ensure your alliances stay focused on what matters. $129.99 [Add to Cart]

Winners (Don't) Take All: The Difficult Task of Creating and Claiming Value in Negotiation- DVD

Free Online Preview

Negotiations have two dimensions: the creation of value, and the claiming of that value. Negotiators often focus on the value-claiming side, destroying value-creation opportunities in the process. Professor Neale describes the disastrous outcomes that result when negotiators' antagonism and pride obscure their own best interests. She explains how to focus instead on three critical data points: your reservation price, your aspiration price, and your best alternatives to an agreement. You can get a great deal—or you can walk away. Either way, you win. $129.99 [Add to Cart]

Focus the interview on the applicant’s abilities—not the disability—and you’ll ensure that every candidate gets the same chance to prove that he or she is the right person for the job.

Death by Growth: The Paradox of Capacity - DVD

Growth can rapidly overwhelm an organization. Managers and employees may chase too many #1 priorities, lose focus, and send an organization into a downward spiral. Christopher Meyer shows how growing companies can avoid creating internal traffic jams and accidents that ultimately cause their own failures. He advocates a "less is more" philosophy in which companies match and leverage their growth capacities with their capabilities.

Christopher Meyer, PhD, is an internationally-recognized expert in technology management and innovation. He is the author of the book, "Fast Cycle Time: How to Align Purpose, Strategy, and Structure for Speed" and the groundbreaking article, "How the Right Measures Help Teams Excel," published in the Harvard Business Review.

Strategy by Design: How Design Thinking Builds Opportunities- DVD

Free Online Preview

Successful innovations must be desirable to consumers, technically feasible, and viable from a business point of view. But how do you meet these requirements? Tim Brown advocates using the three stages of “design thinking”: inspiration, ideation, and implementation. For inspiration, innovators must look at the world through the eyes and the ears of users, perhaps studying analogous situations or extreme users to spark a generative process. Ideation, the core of the process, involves prototyping and realistic testing. Implementation begins with storytelling to bring the idea into the world. If a narrative can be developed around an idea, it has the best chance of being understood and implemented.

In the Company of Women - DVD

Women can be best friends or worst enemies.

Free Online Preview

Women have profound emotional ties to other women. Even when a woman finds the male love of her life, the bonds she shares with female friends usually remain unshaken. However, when a woman gets promoted, who is OFTEN the first to attack? Other women, of course! In fact, relationships between women often polarize at two extremes: either they're truly wonderful or they're quite terrible. Why is this topic of critical importance today? Half of the workforce is women and when women are working well together, productivity and morale escalate throughout the entire organization.

Drs. Heim and Murphy help viewers improve working relations based on lessons The Golden Triangle and the Power Dead-Even Rule teach.
