I am only ten years old ") What's worse is that this transformation might have something to do with the way kids have been disappearing from all over Roseville, including Charlie Bog and Judy Pongarongatong And, however unlikely it may seem, there could be some connection with Gussy's--the place that serves Jungle Drum burgers alongside Jungle fries and Quicksand shakes Will Roscoe and his "certified genius" pal Kinchy suss out what's up before it's too late and Roscoe's become a bug for good? Sit back and let Roscoe tell the tale, and--in between hearing about Roscoe's dad the cymbal tester and why an almost 74-year-old secretary became a jujitsu black belt--you'll surely find out David Elliott, all wry wit, seems to have had quite a good time with his debut novel (Ages 7 to 10) --Paul Hughes Book Description"The wacky plot and quirky details will appeal to young and reluctant readers who like their fiction light and offbeat "— SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL Roscoe Wizzle used to be a normal ten-year-old kid But that was before a sign reading COMING SOON!

The Asian Mind Game: Unlocking the Hidden Agenda of the Asian Business Culture : A Westerner's Survival Manual артикул 10699d. |
 |
This book, by East-West marketing consultant Chin-ning Chu, is must reading for any Westerner in business, government, or academia who negotiates in the Orient or wants to It is the first to reveal to Westerners the deep secrets of the Asian psyche that influence Asian behavior in business, politics, lifestyle, and battle Ms Chu points out that озечф Asian mind games have become so finely tuned over the centuries that Americans seldom realize that Asians view the marketplace (and by extension, the world) as a battlefield, and act accordingly She has extracted the principles of successful negotiations from centuries-old Chinese texts that have influenced all of Asia, and provides her readers with examples of their application in the modern world In the Western world, the ability to formulate cunning and subtle strategies for getting your own way in business, politics, and everyday life is regarded as a matter of intuition In Asia, however, strategic thinking is a formal discipline studied by people from all walks of life Amazing as it may seem, contemporary Asians base their outlook and behavior on the teachings of the ancients In China, even children are familiar with the "36 Strategies," formulated by Sun Tzu, a famous military strategist, in the fourth century B C Throughout Asia today, business people as well as political figures study Sun Tzu's Art of War and apply its strategies to all their activities, while Americans read The One-Minute Manager and All IReally Need to Know I Learned In Kindergarten No wonder, Ms Chu comments, that when it comes to business and political negotiations, the Chinese refer to Americans with a word that means "innocent children " Ms Chu brilliantly analyses how Chinese thought and culture have affected Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, and how Japanese conquest and culture have had their effect on the rest of Asia With United States trade and political alliances shifting increasingly to the Pacific rim, it becomes ever more urgent to understand the Asian mind Ms Chu, born in China and educated in Taiwan, spells out the makeup of the Asian psyche as no Westerner could.

Crossing the Chasm артикул 10719d. |

Author Geoffrey Moore makes the case that high-tech products require marketing strategies that differ from those in other industries His chasm theory describes how high-tech products initially sell well, mainly to a technically literate customer base, but then hit a lull as marketing professionals try to cross the chasm to mainstream buyers озещу This pattern, says Moore, is unique to the high-tech industry Moore suggests remedies for the problem that can help businesses meet their long-term goals He coaches marketing professionals on how to move slowly through the gulf, teaching them to create profiles and target specific segments of the population rather than trying to plow right into the mainstream He cites examples of successful chasm crossings by such companies as Apple, Tandem, Oracle, and Sun, showing what they all had in common and exposing the different weaknesses in their strategies Moore also assigns responsibility for success to programmers and developers by suggesting they design a "whole product model " Here, because integration tasks are daunting to the mainstream market, all the components of a technological product must be in one package Moore also describes strategies for competing with rival companies and assessing the best distribution channels for penetrating the target market Written not just for marketing specialists but for all employees whose futures ride on the success of a technical product, Crossing the Chasm delivers crucial information in an engaging, readable tone Revised edition Автор Джеффри А Мур Geoffrey A Moore.
