... Operations Management Course BOOK REVIEW BY LAYLA ALHOSHAN Warren Buffett's Management Secrets: Proven Tools for Personal and Business Success By: David Clark (Author) and Mary Buffett (Author) David Clark and Mary Buffet examine and analyze Buffett’s qualities of leadership and management techniques. Warren Buffett has learned a lot in his life through his own skill of self-‐learning to become a manager to whom others look up. He also became the second richest person in the world; building his own empire from scratch. This book is full with stories and techniques that illuminate his philosophy in life and management style. I personally think that this book contains a lot of solutions for new and start-‐up businesses and is considered a guidebook for managers during their early stages of careers. What is obvious in this book is Warren Buffett’s “passion” of human...

...millionaire mindset club essential book summaries HOW TO WIN FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE by Dale Carnegie INTRODUCTION When Dale Carnegie first sat down to write How to Win Friends and Influence People he really didn’t realize exactly what a best seller it would be, nor did he realize that over 70 years later it would still be in print - and be acclaimed as ‘the best all time’ self-help book in the world. The book was first published in 1937 and was developed from the real life experiences of hundreds of people, rather than from just one person’s opinions. The idea for the book was brought about by the results of an investigation conducted by the Carnegie Foundation that was carried out to determine how people became financially successful. The investigation found that success took only fifteen percent of actual technical knowledge, and that the actual key to success rested on the other eighty five percent. This eighty five percent was identified as possessing skills in human engineering: the ability to get on with others well, your individual outlook and people skills. These results came as a shock to many at the time as these skills were not widely taught in courses or classes. A new concept had been discovered and a large hole emerged that needed to be filled by a new peopled-skilled class. This is how the Dale Carnegie Course In Effective Speaking and Human Relations was born – and the book a mere set of ideas on memo cards which were discussed and lectured on. These...

...be liked (despite what rebellious 15-year-old you might have said). The basics of getting people to like you are obvious--be nice, be considerate, be a decent human being. Those things are all true. However, there are also many smaller, more discreet things you can do that can have a huge effect on how others perceive you. Most of these tips are little techniques you can implement every day. They may seem insignificant or even silly, but give them a try and you might find yourself becoming exponentially more popular. 1. Use a Person's Name Let's face it--we're all huge narcissists and we all love the sound of our own name. Learn names and make use of them. Always use an individual's name in a conversation. A classic from Dale Carnegie's famous book How to Win Friends and Influence People, this tried-and-true technique is sure to increase your fan base. 2. Smile--With Feeling! Although we live in a digital age that increasingly substitutes technology for human interaction, we are still at our cores very social creatures. As humans, we use social interaction as a tool for feedback, and we make a lot of conscious and subconscious choices based on how others engage with and respond to us. When someone offers a huge grin brimming with authenticity, happiness rubs off on its receivers. There have been many studies showing how mood, whether positive or negative, spreads between individuals. If your positive attitude brightens someone else's day, that person will love you...

...Communication Technology: Efficiently Lowering the Bar Jason P. Hagle BUS 600 Management Communications with Technology Tools Instructor: Neil Mathur March 11, 2013 Communication technology in large organizations has significantly changed day-to-day operations over the past 10 years. General Electric (GE) is an infrastructure and financial services corporation. Its segments include: Power and Water; Oil and Gas; Energy Management; Home and Business Solutions; and GE Capital, which provides a range of financial services and products (mergentonline.com, 2013). Since the invention of Edison’s light bulb, technology and innovation has been at the heart of everything GE does. Email, conference calls, video conferencing, and virtual workspaces are all prevalent in today’s working environments. Managers and employees must be able to adapt to these technological advancements designed to increase productivity and reduce the cost of doing business. Incorporating new technologies allows employees to work more efficiently and effectively but can also present challenges that are more subtle and difficult to measure. Relationships become difficult to establish due to a lack of interpersonal communication opportunities. Employees working remotely at GE do not feel as connected to the larger organization as employees working in office sites. A common theme at GE is that the company does not want employees to feel like islands to themselves. The company acknowledges that its...

...How to Network: 12 Tips for Shy People Schmoozing is a trial for shy people, but armed with these common-sense tips they can increase their networking mojo. By Meridith Levinson From CIO.com December 11, 2007 Networking is the key to success in business, says Keith Ferrazzi, business coach and author of Never Eat Alone, a book about the power of relationship building and networking. It helps you find jobs, recruit talent, win new customers and discover investors who'll support your ideas. But networking is a trial for shy people—geeks especially. They view it as insincere at best, manipulative at worst. They eschew networking for a variety of reasons including lack of confidence, fear of rejection and a sense of unworthiness. If they could just relate to others more easily, if they just possessed more self-confidence and weren't such self-conscious wallflowers, the world would be their oyster, and schmoozing would be so much easier. It is possible for shrinking violets and shy guys to master the skill of networking. They just have to realize, says Ferrazzi, that successful networking is all about building intimate, sincere relationships based on mutual generosity, not duplicity, and that they can't achieve their career goals on their own. They have to network their way to success. If you're struggling to meet new people, here's some common-sense advice for increasing your networking mojo. Start Small If the idea of approaching people you don't know intimidates you, begin...

...In April 1952, Buffett discovered that Graham was on the board of GEICO insurance. Taking a train to Washington, D.C. on a Saturday, he knocked on the door of GEICO's headquarters until a janitor admitted him. There he met Lorimer Davidson, Geico's Vice President, and the two discussed the insurance business for hours. Davidson would eventually become Buffett's lifelong friend and a lasting influence,[24] and would later recall that he found Buffett to be an "extraordinary man" after only fifteen minutes. Buffett wanted to work on Wall Street, however, both his father and Ben Graham urged him not to. He offered to work for Graham for free, but Graham refused.[25] Buffett returned to Omaha and worked as a stockbroker while taking a Dale Carnegie public speaking course.[26] Using what he learned, he felt confident enough to teach an "Investment Principles" night class at University of Nebraska-Omaha. The average age of his students was more than twice his own. During this time he also purchased a Sinclair Texaco gas station as a side investment. However, this was not successful.[citation needed] In 1952,[27] Buffett married Susan Thompson at Dundee Presbyterian Church. The next year they had their first child, Susan Alice. In 1954, Buffett accepted a job at Benjamin Graham's partnership. His starting salary was $12,000 a year (approximately $105,000 inflation adjusted for the 2012 USD[22]). There he worked closely with Walter Schloss. Graham was a tough boss. He was adamant...

...Running Head: RESEARCH AND WRITING RESEARCH AND WRITING: Overcoming Barriers to Effective Communication Your name Instructor’s name Course name Date of submission Overcoming Barriers to Effective Communication Introduction Communication is the process of disseminating information or a message from one individual to another through some medium. Communication is achieved when there is an interchange of opinions, thoughts, and information by writing, speech and writing. Communication as a process can be defined as a sign-mediated interface between at least two persons who share a repertoire of semiotic and sign rules. Note that communication is a two-way process, where progressive and exchange of feelings, thoughts or ideas are directed towards a mutually accepted goal (information). At one point during communication, the sender becomes a receiver, whereas the receiver becomes the sender, note that this is achieved through feedback. Nevertheless, communication is a procedure whereby ideas are enclosed in a package and thereafter channeled by the source (sender) via some medium to its destination (receiver). The receiver will then decode the received message and give the sender some form of feedback. There are different forms of communication, which require a sender, the message, and a recipient. However, communication can occur even if the receiver is not aware of the sender’s intent to communicate. Just like other entities in life, communication faces various...

Miller, (Eds.), Educational Psychology, V.VII, of Handbook of Psychology (2nd Ed) (pp. 507-554). New York: John Wiley & Sons. Chapter 12 The Psychology and Pedagogy of Reading Processes P. David Pearson and Gina Cervetti As we approach the monumental task of living up to the standard imposed by our predecessor, the late Michael Pressley, in writing the reading chapter for this, the seventh volume in the series of Handbooks of Psychology, we are both privileged and humbled by the opportunity of continuing the legacy of providing a comprehensive account of new theoretical and empirical contributions to reading research. Respectful of the cross-age approach that Pressley took in the last volume (account for progress of beginning readers, adolescent and adult readers— and along the way highlight some pedagogical processes that are salient at all levels, such as word recognition, vocabulary, and comprehension), we took a different approach. We decided to focus on reading as a fundamentally cognitive process that can be influenced by contextual forces at many levels, most notably for education, schools, and policy environments. Thus we deal with the fundamental psychological aspects of reading—word level processes (including subword processes such as phonological awareness and decoding, word reading, and vocabulary, with all of its entailments), and...

...65 Lessons Learned Over 12 Years Of Being In IM So this is the list I wish I had when I first got started...... 1. You have a lot more power than you think. And don't let anyone tell you differently. Power simply means "the ability to act" and all of you possess this. You just have to decide to use it. Power is like the muscle, the more action you take, the easier it gets. Science has already proven this to be true as the neural strands in your brain get thicker the more you do certain things. 2. When I first got started I wish someone would have held a gun to my head and advised me "look, you're going to focus on ONE thing at a time and master it before you move onto the next". Focus isn't just a word, it's the ability to keep your eye on what you want to accomplish so any obstacles you see will be ignored. Ok, "master" is probably too strong of a word. For example, when I first started using PPC advertising (Pay-Per-Click) many years ago I was losing money for over 2 straight months because I didn't know how to test my campaigns. So I invested in a solid PPC course by Perry Marshall and studied it. I started small and then reinvested my profits. 3. The first thing anyone should do is get clarity on what they really want. Making 10k per month is not a real goal. It's good to have, but if you don't become CRYSTAL clear on the WHY behind that goal, you're going to let obstacles kick your butt. Wanting money never got me anywhere. Now spending time with my loved ones and telling...

...A TEACHER’S GUIDE TO THE SIGNET CLASSIC EDITION OF BOOKER T. WASHINGTON’S UP FROM SLAVERY By VIRGINIA L. SHEPHARD, Ph.D., Florida State University S E R I E S E D I T O R S : W. GEIGER ELLIS, ED.D., ARTHEA J. S. REED, PH.D., UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA, EMERITUS and UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA, RETIRED A Teacher’s Guide to the Signet Classic Edition of Booker T. Washington’s Up from Slavery 2 INTRODUCTION Booker T. Washington’s commanding presence and oratory deeply moved his contemporaries. His writings continue to influence readers today. Although Washington claimed his autobiography was “a simple, straightforward story, with no attempt at embellishment,” readers for nearly a century have found it richly rewarding. Today, Up From Slavery appeals to a wide audience from early adolescence through adulthood. More important, however, is the inspiration his story of hard work and positive goals gives to all readers. His life is an example providing hope to all. The complexity and contradictions of his life make his autobiography intellectually intriguing for advanced readers. To some he was known as the Sage of Tuskegee or the Black Moses. One of his prominent biographers, Louis R. Harlan, called him the “Wizard of the Tuskegee Machine.” Others acknowledged him to be a complicated person and public figure. Students of American social and political history have come to see that Washington lived a double life. Publicly he appeased the white establishment...
