Diary of a Mad Web Lackey 2004

 

I was interested to read other reviews of Martha Stewart's The Martha Rules - most were overwhelmingly positive.  I say read the chapter heading for the advice and the book to feel closer to Martha.  Nancy
Amazon: The Neglected Firm by Jorge Vasconcellos e Sá

 

 

It's not everyday mail arrives from Portugal, so I pounced on the many-stamped envelope and found it contained The Neglected Firm by Jorge Vasconcellos e Sá.  And then I opened the book and started nodding my head. 

Professor Vasconcellos e Sá hit me right where I, the founder of a small online business, live and work.  His contention is that one can't just fight business fires, but must always focus on two fronts: the future as well as the present.  The book is systematically laid out to present the maximum attack plan with the least amount of rhetoric.  The Neglected Firm is not for the wishful and unlikely manage by the seat of your pants and maybe someday we can retire to the Bahamas school of business.  It is intelligent management fodder - a guideline that won't be going to the back of my bookshelf.  Nancy

PS  Vasconcellos e Sá also wrote the new strategy bible for big business planning, Strategy Moves.  I was mesmerized by his scientific approach to competion.  He stated, "The rules maximize the chances of success.  And if we play by them we will deserve that success." 

Anyone who thinks beyond the outline of their business plan needs to do so logically, the Vasconcellos e Sá way.
