Gary L Nielsen & Bruce Pasternack

Every company has a personality. Does yours help or hinder your results? Does it make you fit for growth? Find out by taking the quiz that’s helped 50,000 people better understand their organizations at OrgDNA.com and to learn more about Organizational DNA.

Just as you can understand an individual’s personality, so too can you understand a company’s type—what makes it tick, what’s good and bad about it. Results explains why some organizations bob and weave and roll with the punches to consistently deliver on commitments and produce great results, while others can’t leave their corner of the ring without tripping on their own shoelaces. Gary Neilson and Bruce Pasternack help you identify which of the seven company types you work for—and how to keep what’s good and fix what’s wrong. (Source : Amazon.com)

The World Is Flat by Thomas L. Friedman
Register now for your free copy >>

"The World is Flat" was born in Tom Friedman's mind while he was in Bangalore, the technology hub of India. It came to him after hearing an Indian software executive explain how the 'world's economic playing field was being leveled'. Friedman came face to face with the realization that the world had changed - become flat- 'while he was sleeping' (to use his own words!)

Outsourcing features in the 'World is Flat' as a force to reckon with and which is here to stay. Friedman uses lively examples of his experience at the 24/7 Customer Contact center in Bangalore to illustrate how the company has adapted to the changing world economy and its demands extremely well - effortlessly able to prepare tax returns for Americans, take care of logistics for customers in the UK and even those in Canada. The fact that China and India loom large in Friedman's story because they are the two big countries benefiting most from the flat world. Friedman understands that China and India represent not just threats to the developed world, but also great opportunities. After all, the changes he is describing have the net effect of adding hundreds of millions of people - consumers - to the world economy. That is an unparalleled opportunity for every company and individual in the world.

He ends up, wisely, understanding that there's no way to stop the wave. You cannot switch off these forces except at great cost to your own economic well-being. Over the last century, those countries that tried to preserve their systems, jobs, culture or traditions by keeping the rest of the world out all stagnated. Those that opened themselves up to the world prospered. But that doesn't mean you can't do anything to prepare for this new competition and new world - a world that has become impossibly flat and will continue on this lateral trend.
