Fast/Forward
Author: Julian Birkinshaw
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 1503602311
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
A guide to the adhocracy form of business management and how it can foster a company’s success. The leading companies of the past twenty years have all harnessed the power of information to gain competitive advantage. But as access to big data becomes ubiquitous, it can no longer guarantee a leg up. Fast/Forward makes the case that we are entering a new era in which firms that understand the limits of 1s and 0s will take the lead. Whereas the industrial age saw the rise of bureaucracy, and the information age has been described as a meritocracy, we are witnessing the rise of adhocracy. In uncertain, rapidly-changing times, adhocracic organizations scan the horizon for winning opportunities. Then, instead of questing after more analysis, they respond with agility by making smart, intuitive decisions. Combining decisive action with emotional conviction, future-facing firms seize the day. Fast/Forward paints the big picture of a new approach to strategy and provides the necessary playbook to make your company fit for the future. Praise for Fast/Forward “Fast/Forward makes a compelling case for spontaneity, speed, and a willingness to lead with intuition. More importantly, it speaks to the leadership qualities required to implement its suggestions—providing practical ways to cultivate to those qualities.” —Jeffrey Pfeffer, Stanford University, author of Power: Why Some People Have It—and Others Don’t “[Birkinshaw and Ridderstråle] are on the right track: In an ever-faster, globalized world, companies not only need a compelling strategy, but also an adaptive and caring performance culture. To unleash their full ingenuity, we have to empower our colleagues to act like owners.” —Joe Kaeser, President and CEO, Siemens AG “Big data is oversold as the most important facet of competitive advantage. Rather, breakthrough leaps of faith are necessary to achieve extraordinary results. Fast-Forward is full of practical advice about how to capitalize on this simple idea in order to forge your corporate future.” —Anita McGahan, Rotman School of Management, author of How Industries Evolve

Prevention's Fit and Fast Meals in Minutes
Author: Linda Gassenheimer
Publisher: Rodale
ISBN: 9781594864162
Category : Cooking
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
"Quick, healthy, great-tasting meals--using the same approach as the author's enormously popular Dinner in Minutes" column that reaches millions of readers each week When Linda Gassenheimer's bestselling cookbook "Low-Carb Meals in Minutes appeared, famed chef Jacques Pepin cheered: "What starts as a diet book becomes the blueprint for a healthy lifestyle based on appealing recipes that are quick and easy to prepare." Reviewers greeted her previous work with similar enthusiasm. Now this award-winning author has applied her "Meals in Minutes formula to the latest USDA dietary guidelines--emphasizing portion control and more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains--and the result is a treasury of 150 enticing recipes, organized into a sensational 4-week meal plan. Recipes range from Asian to Mediterranean, from Tex-Mex to Caribbean, from breakfasts like Wild Mushroom Parmesan Omelet to show-stopping dinners like Sicilian Swordfish with Broccoli Linguine. Mouthwatering desserts complete the meals, like the Velvety Chocolate Mousse that takes less than 10 minutes to prepare. Helpful shopping lists make stocking the kitchen as efficient as possible, and smart advice on substitutions allows readers to take advantage of seasonal and discounted ingredients. Enjoying good food that's good for you has never been simpler, or, as the "Rocky Mountain News has raved about the author's "Dinner in Minutes: "She does everything except come to your home and cook it for you."

Slim & Fit Kids
Author: Judy Mazel
Publisher: HCI
ISBN: 9781558747296
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In 1996, shortly after best-selling author Judy Mazel released the sequel to her original book The New Beverly Hills Diet, Dr. John Monaco, a pediatric critical care specialist and former "fat kid," turned to Mazel's program to combat his own critical weight problem and improve his health. After achieving great success himself, he decided that where adults succeeded on the program, kids could, too - perhaps even more so. Most important, Dr. Monaco realized that obesity among children was the main factor precipitating life-threatening diseases among them - such as asthma, diabetes and clinical depression - as well as other serious, though not potentially fatal, problems like excessive strain on bones, joints and muscles. Mazel and Monaco have teamed up to offer parents Slim and Fit Kids, a one-of-a-kind approach to raising healthy, well-adjusted children. Combining Mazel's successful twenty-plus years of experience with food combining with Monaco's pediatric expertise, this book will teach parents everything they need to know about nutrition, digestion and nutrient absorption. This compelling book provides easy-to-understand information on the science of pediatric nutrition, as well as down-to-earth reminders on children's natural eating habits, making it easy and fun for parents to teach healthy nutritional habits that will last a lifetime. Divided into parts, the first focuses on children's obesity. Chapters in this part include an overview of the problem of obesity in children and the diseases and disorders it engenders; Dr. Monaco's discovery of the Beverly Hills Diet and his idea to adapt it to children's nutrition; an overview of the digestive process; a summary of developmental nutrition, explaining the nutritional needs and issues of each age group; and personal accounts of the childhood obesity problem. The second part shows parents the practical steps to incorporating the nutritional principles they have learned into a daily program for their kids.
