Free Download Purpose-Driven Pricing: Leveraging the Power of Pricing for Profit and Societal Good
English | 2025 | ISBN: 1032658940 | 242 Pages | EPUB | 3.5 MB
This book, written by two leading thinkers on pricing strategy and practice, makes the important link between the ideals of purpose in organizations and the crucial tools of how to implement change using one of the fundamental levers at the disposal of the organization. It introduces the concept of leveraging the power of pricing for both profit and societal good and then clearly explains how it can be done. Price can be used to manage demand, incentivize consumer behavior, and influence change. The impact can be effective and quick, and it is not far-fetched to say that pro-social pricing can be utilized to preserve the environment, educate citizens, promote arts, alleviate poverty, and improve health. The book outlines how corporations, governments, civil society organizations, and collaborators can use pricing power to manage the adoption of products and services across B2B and B2C. Pricing strategies include innovating, unbundling, unpackaging, collaborating, implementing new monetization models, and applying learnings from behavioral pricing.

Free Download Yadullah Shahibzadeh, "Public Intellectuals and Their Discontents: From Europe to Iran"
English | 2021 | pages: 292 | ISBN: 3030565904, 3030565874 | PDF | 3,4 mb
This book addresses the ways in which the figure of the intellectuals and their relationship to the public has been theorized through the conceptualizations of bureaucracy, democracy, and communism as universal processes from the 19th century to the present. Starting with Hegel and Marx, the author looks at the rise of the figure of the universal intellectual in various forms, before turning to what is presented as a transformation of the figure of the intellectual into 'the public intellectual' advanced by the New Philosophies and the critical response offered by Edward Said. The study presents two comparative case studies: the Iranian Revolution and the public intellectuals in Europe, specifically in Norway, before concluding with a focus on the decay of the figure of the intellectuals and highlighting Ranciere's critique of the intellectual/masses distinction.

Free Download Prozeßintegriertes Management - PIM: Ein Modell für effizientes Qualitäts-, Umwelt- und Arbeitsschutzmanagement By Dr. Hartwig Schwerdtle (auth.)
1999 | 246 Pages | ISBN: 3642636187 | PDF | 10 MB
Das Prozeßmanagement unterstützt die Optimierung der operativen Bereiche und deren Geschäftsabläufe. Normierte Managementsysteme dienen je nach der spezifischen Ausrichtung dazu, die Forderungen des Qualitäts-(ISO 9001), Umwelt-(ISO 14001) oder Arbeitsschutzmanagements (BS 8800) systematisch umzusetzen. Werden diese Managementsysteme unabhängig voneinander eingeführt, so werden einzelne Aspekte mehrfach bearbeitet. Eine empirische Untersuchung ergab Doppelarbeiten von bis zu 73%. Der Autor entwickelt ein allgemeingültiges Prozeßmodell für Industrieunternehmen, das als Grundlage für die Integration von Qualitäts-, Umwelt- und Arbeitsschutzmanagement dient. Im Rahmen eines zweiphasigen Vorgehens erhält der Praktiker einerseits einen Leitfaden für die Implementierung des ProzeßintegriertenManagements (PIM), andererseits bekommt er am Beispiel der MCC smart GmbH eine weitere Orientierungshilfe einer praxisgerechten Umsetzung des PIM-Modells.

Free Download Projektmanagement: Leitfaden zur Steuerung und Führung von Projekten By Heinrich Keßler, Dr. Georg Winkelhofer (auth.)
1999 | 228 Pages | ISBN: 3540655662 | PDF | 17 MB
Das Buch behandelt ein ganzheitliches Projektmanagement zur Führung und Steuerung von Projekten jeglicher Art innerhalb eines Unternehmens. Führungskräften in allen Branchen vermittelt das Buch einen Überblick über die Komplexität und Wechselwirkung der einzelnen Erfolgsfaktoren von Projekten. Den Methodenexperten, Unternehmensplanern und Controllern bietet es ein ganzheitliches und praxisnahes Instrumentarium zur Gestaltung von Veränderungs- und Erneuerungsprozessen. Projektleiter und Projektteammitglieder sollen aus der Darstellung und Beschreibung der Erfolgsfaktoren zusätzliche Handlungsmöglichkeiten für ihre Arbeit kennenlernen. Das Konzept basiert auf langjähriger Erfahrung der Autoren als Projektleiter und Berater in unterschiedlichen Branchen. Seminare in Industrie und Dienstleistung brachten dazu viele didaktische Anregungen. Beschreibung des Umfelds und der wesentlichen Rahmenbedingungen. Insbesondere werden Beispiele aufgezeigt, wie in laufenden Projekten die einzelnen Komponenten gestaltet und gewichtet werden können. Viele Störungen im Projektverlauf können so vermieden und die Erfolgsaussicht von Projekten erheblich erhöht werden. Der rote Faden führt durch die unterschiedlichen Dimensionen und Ebenen des Projektmanagements. Das Buch ist das Ergebnis einer vieljährigen Beratungsarbeit der Autoren und greift insbesondere die Themen auf, die von Führungskräften, Entscheidern, Projektleitern und Organisatoren immer wieder als Ursachen für Störungen und Konflikte genannt werden und für die jeweils individuelle Lösungen gefunden wurden.

Free Download Projects as Arenas for Renewal and Learning Processes By Rolf A. Lundin, Christophe Midler (auth.), Rolf A. Lundin, Christophe Midler (eds.)
1998 | 259 Pages | ISBN: 146137605X | PDF | 7 MB
There is a growing tendency to organize various aspects of business life by projects, and to set up temporary organizations in a competition where speed and adaptability becomes a major necessity. Organizing by projects is perceived as a good way to ensure action and to stress the importance of getting work done. However, there is a need to balance the stress on action so that learning capabilities are not only retained, but augmented. Projects as Arenas for Renewal and Learning Processes provides examples of how different types of projects function from a learning or renewal perspective, taken from a wide variety of real-life environments in industrial and public organizations. This book illustrates the mistaken habit of assuming too much in the project area: for example, project notions are, in fact, culture-dependent; classical market-oriented contracting business relations do not fit with the learning dimension of projects; and long-term learning on core competencies and product development projects need to be connected. The book is also intended to represent many of the research frontiers in the project field. Enhancing learning capabilities is - or should be - of a mutual concern to researchers and managers alike.
