If you do, this book will fascinate and inform you. If you don’t, you will after reading this book. Either way, you’ll enjoy learning how we don’t usually do it as we think we do, how we may do it better for that very reason, and how we may do it still better once we understand.”—Thomas C. Schelling, 2005 Nobel Prize Laureate in Economics, Distinguished University Professor, Emeritus, University of MarylandDrawing on cutting-edge research in the neurosciences, Wired for Survival illuminates the surprising security implications of rapid change in the emerging economies and develops practical, technically sound ways to face the challenges of global change.Researcher and consultant Margaret M. Polski begins by uncovering the remarkable neurobiological underpinnings of policy. Polski reveals why the most effective political and economic policies are codified not in law, treaty, or culture, but in the networks embedded in our bodies and brains...and how protecting our prosperity requires us to adapt those networks to radically new realities.Next, Polski applies these fresh insights to three critical security issues: how best to defend our national interests; to take offensive action to protect our interests; and to strengthen our financial system. Finally, she provides “rules for the road” that can be applied to a world of problems: how best to compete in global markets; to build stronger, more secure communities; to manage energy and other key resources; to invest in and secure critical infrastructure; to address the structural impacts of trade; and to manage tomorrow’s catastrophes, both natural and man-made.As a political economist, executive, government advisor, and consultant, Polski has spent more than two decades devising strategies for surviving change in the global political economy. Now, drawing on the breakthrough research in social neuroscience, she offers insights that will help you thrive, not just survive!“First, kill all the pundits and policy wonks...”Why you’ll make better decisions by thinking for yourself–and how to do itThinking in the wildUncovering the intuitive interactions between our minds, bodies, and 21st century environmentOvercoming our biases, our histories, and our vulnerability to groupthink Mastering the deep motivations that traditional economics doesn’t understand</description><dc:publisher>FT Press</dc:publisher><dc:creator>Margaret M. Polski</dc:creator><dc:subject>Economics/Trends</dc:subject><dc:date>September 10, 2008</dc:date></item><item rdf:about="http://safari.phptr.com/9780137148134"><title>The Spider’s Strategy: Creating Networks to Avert Crisis, Create Change and Really Get Ahead</title><link>http://safari.phptr.com/9780137148134</link><description>This is the Safari online edition of the printed book.“Mukherjee beautifully weaves the ever-morphing web of technology, business, and organizational learning together and explains why both top executives and middle managers must care about their impact.”Sudipta BhattacharyaPresident, Invensys Wonderware“The business world is moving toward non-hierarchical networks.... The answer to these changes is a combination of network management and collaborative leadership. Mukherjee...goes beyond description of best practices. The four Design Principles that he has developed to implement networks are conceptually well thought through and actionable. This book deserves to be read by anybody who is interested in tomorrow’s organization.”Arnoud De MeyerDirector, Judge Business School, Cambridge University“An ‘adaptive organization’ must count as the response in the increasingly connected world in which business will operate in the decades ahead.… [Mukherjee] makes a terrific case of how to achieve the desired response. A great read for the ‘concerned’ before they reach the stage of being ‘tormented.’”R. GopalakrishnanExecutive Director, TATA Sons Limited“Beyond the obvious, this is a great and pragmatic book, demonstrating the incredible power of collaboration in action.”Jean-Francois BarilSenior Vice President, Nokia Corporation“Though many have sought to unlock the secrets of creating learning organizations, few have succeeded. In The Spider’s Strategy, Mukherjee provides the keys to the learning kingdom.… And he shows what it really takes to leverage the power of networks. It is that rare business book that deserves to be read from cover-to-cover.”Michael WatkinsAuthor of The First 90 Days: Critical Success Strategies for New Leaders at All Levels“Mukherjee has written a very thoughtful and thought provoking book.… The adaptive network perspective with its four Design Principles and the accompanying five Capabilities inspired by a Chief Network Officer will be the organizations of the present and future.… The book presents good theory, research grounded in facts, and a clear picture of what is both necessary and possible, going forward.”Alexander B. HornimanKillgallon Ohio Art Professor of Business Administration, Darden School of Business Administration, University of VirginiaTo thrive in a world where networks of companies increasingly compete with other networks, managers can no longer focus solely on excellence in planning and execution. In The Spider’s Strategy, top business consultant Amit S. Mukherjee provides the tools you need to sense and respond to unexpected events. He shows why and how managers in your company must apply four powerful “Design Principles” today: Change everyday work practices by embedding “sense and response” within your normal plan-and-execute processes. Promote collaboration across partner companies by establishing practical mechanisms that make “win-win” a basis for action not an empty slogan. Ensure that work really teaches by assuring the culture, processes, and organizational structure to improve your company’s ability to learn. Implement those key technological capabilities that allow the network to function seamlessly. The heart of this book includes proven implementation advice based on conversations with successful innovators at HP, Nokia, and beyond. Mukherjee offers new insight into everything from work practices to culture and corporate organization and shows how to overcome even the most stubborn obstacles to effective collaboration amongst partners.Acknowledgments xiiiAbout the Author xPart I: Why Change?Chapter 1: The Fire That Changed an Industry 3Chapter 2: Shadows of the Past 17Chapter 3: Visions from the Present 45Part II: Design Principles for Adaptive CapabilitiesChapter 4: Transform Everyday Work 69Chapter 5: Succeed in a Dog-Eat-Dog World 97Chapter 6: Ensure That Work Teaches 131Chapter 7: Make Technology Matter 163Part III: Going AdaptiveChapter 8: Create the Organization 197Chapter 9: Introduce Change Holographically 209Epilogue: Two Views of a Company 225Index 229</description><dc:publisher>FT Press</dc:publisher><dc:creator>Amit S. Mukherjee</dc:creator><dc:subject>Strategy</dc:subject><dc:date>September 10, 2008</dc:date></item><item rdf:about="http://safari.phptr.com/9780321604750"><title>Essential LINQ</title><link>http://safari.phptr.com/9780321604750</link><description>A concise yet practical book that offers the essence of LINQ, not just a blind “how-to.” “Essential LINQ” describes how LINQ integrates querying into C# as a first class citizen.
