“She finds paths from competition to cooperation . . . from global abuse to grassroots solutions—and thus from isolated despair to communal action.” —Gloria Steinem World-renowned futurist Hazel Henderson extends her twenty-five years of work in economics to examine the havoc the current economic system is creating at the global level. Markets are now spreading worldwide—a spread which is often equated with the hope of democracy spreading along with it. But markets still run on old textbook models that ignore social and environmental costs—leading to a new kind of warfare: global economic warfare. Building a Win-Win World examines how jobs, education, health care, human rights, democratic participation, socially responsible business, and environmental protection are all sacrificed to “global competitiveness.” Henderson shows many ways out of the dilemmas faced by all countries. She also describes a trend toward “grassroots globalism” —citizens movements that are addressing poverty, social inequities, pollution, resource-depletion, violence, and wars. Grassroots globalism, she says, is about thinking and acting—globally and locally. It is pragmatic problem-solving, implementing local solutions that keep the planet in mind. Such social innovations can raise the ethical floor under the global playing field so that the most ethical companies and countries can win. “At a time when conventional economics is tottering into senility, a handful of thinkers are forging imaginative alternatives. Hazel Henderson is among the most eloquent, original—and readable—of the econo-clasts.” —Scientific American “Hazel Henderson again challenges our fundamental economic systems, our musty ways, and our minds; she is a visionary who describes what should be our future.” —Joan Bavaria, President, Coalition for Environmentally Responsible Economies

From New York Times bestselling author and senior economic correspondent at The New York Times, how to survive—and thrive—in this increasingly challenging economy. Every ambitious professional is trying to navigate a perilous global economy to do work that is lucrative and satisfying, but some find success while others struggle to get by. In an era of remarkable economic change, how should you navigate your career to increase your chances of landing not only on your feet, but ahead of those around you? In How to Win in a Winner-Take-All World, Neil Irwin, senior economic correspondent at the New York Times, delivers the essential guide to being successful in today’s economy when the very notion of the “job” is shifting and the corporate landscape has become dominated by global firms. He shows that the route to success lies in cultivating the ability to bring multiple specialties together—to become a “glue person” who can ensure people with radically different technical skills work together effectively—and how a winding career path makes you better prepared for today's fast-changing world. Through original data, close analysis, and case studies, Irwin deftly explains the 21st century economic landscape and its implications for ambitious people seeking a lifetime of professional success. Using insights from global giants like Microsoft, Walmart, and Goldman Sachs, and from smaller lesser known organizations like those that make cutting-edge digital effects in Planet of the Apes movies or Jim Beam bourbon, How to Win in a Winner-Take-All World illuminates what it really takes to be on top in this world of technological complexity and global competition.

Why did Ratan Tata decide to pay for all the victims of 26/11 whether injured in the Taj or anywhere else? Why did HDFC ’s Aditya Puri insist that employees leave for home by 5.30 p.m.? How did HUL develop a cheaper, better product to beat its competitor, Nirma? What do Taj Hotels, HDFC, HUL, L&T and BPCL have in common? They are the win-win corporations! Based on over a decade of research, Shashank Shah takes these truly outstanding Indian companies and studies how they do business. Each of these companies has exceptional practices when it comes to stakeholder management. Whether the stakeholder is an employee, customer, investor, vendor or even society at large, these companies reveal how looking at everyone else’s interests doesn’t really mean compromising on your own. Often, the two complement each other and that is what makes a win-win solution for everyone. This book gives an inside look into what motivates exceptional companies and how they are a cut above the rest. Full of fascinating anecdotes, leadership philosophy and background stories of organizations, Win-Win Corporations is an inspiring read into what makes companies great.

Companies that consistently negotiate more valuable agreements?in ways that protect key relationships?enjoy an important but often overlooked competitive advantage. Until now, most companies have sought to improve their negotiation outcomes by sending individuals to training workshops. But this new groundbreaking book, using real-world examples from leading companies, shows a more powerful and less expensive way to achieve this. In Built to Win, authors Susskind and Movius argue that negotiation must be a strategic core competency. Drawing on their decades of training and consulting work, as well as a robust theory of negotiation, the authors provide a step-by-step model for building organizational competence. They show why the approach of ?training and more training? is a weak strategy. The authors also describe the organizational barriers that so often plague even experienced negotiators, and recommend ways of overcoming them. Built to Win explains the crucial role that leaders must play in setting goals, aligning incentives, pinpointing metrics, and supporting learning platforms to promote long-term success. A final chapter provides practical ?how-to? tools to help you start your own organizational improvement process. This book will be invaluable to CEOs, senior-level managers, HR business leaders, human resource professionals, sales and purchasing managers, and others who negotiate regularly.

Objections have been a part of life since humans first began to communicate.The funny thing is, in all that time, most people haven't learned how to handle them. However, objections are nothing to be feared. Doug Brown wrote Win-Win Selling for you to learn how to resolve objections by getting to the heart of the matter - the human aspect. In this book, you will. - Get Tools for You to Win Over a Buyer Without an Argument- Discover the Most Important Ingredient for You to Succeed in Sales- Learn How to Resolve Objections While Also Increasing Your Numbers- Explore New Methods for You to Address the Personal Demands of a Buyer- Understand the Behaviorism of the Sale for you to Build Rapport with a Buyer If you have been in business for any length of time, you've encountered an objection or two (thousand!). You have experienced something that instantly opened your eyes to a world of new possibilities.This book will build on that premise - that a world of new possibilities will open up for you when you learn how to handle objections easily in a win-win fashion.You're familiar with the concept of win-win, right? A win-win is where there is a positive outcome for both, and both people want that outcome.What you hold in your hands contains game-changing methods for handling objections. Using these methods will result in higher sales conversions and happier customers - both win-wins.From Bestselling Author Russ Whitney's Foreword: "Most seasoned salespeople will know that when we hear objections like those, it's usually about the money and whether they can afford it, or whether they want to spend it on your product or service. In this book, Doug takes objections and resolution to a whole new level. This is not an ordinary book at all. It takes one of the most important parts of the science of selling and breaks it down in a unique way that will help you to improve your closing ratio and increase your sales in a big way. The other thing I like about this book is that Doug used these very strategies to close me, not only on reading it, but then, writing this foreword. His approach was remarkable; it left me with a good feeling and happy to be a part of this great new approach to handling and resolving objections. Here is one other thing that told me Doug and his new book were onto something: One of my objections with Doug about this book was that it wasn't big enough to be a book. I thought it was more of a special report or a pamphlet. Doug resolved that objection, as well. He explained to me that his goal was not to write a whole book about general sales as most of them are just that. He wanted to focus just on this specialty, which is a thorough understanding and a whole new approach to resolving objections and not overcoming them. Doug, you've produced a work of art here for anyone in the sales profession."
