Decisions equal success - nothing happens until one is made. Businesses make millions of decisions every day. But once in a great while a leader makes a truly game-changing decision that shifts not only the strategy of a single company but how everyone does business. These big decisions are counter-intuitive - they go against the conventional wisdom. In hindsight, taking a different direction may seem easy, but these bet-the-company moves involve drama, doubt, and high tension. What made Apple's board bring back Steve Jobs to the company? How did Johnson & Johnson decide to recall every bottle of Tylenol after a poisoning scare that involved only a small batch of the drug? What made Henry Ford decide to double the wages of his auto workers, and how did that change the American economy for the next century? Here management consultant Verne Harnish, the CEO of Gazelles, and Fortune's editors provide the background stories behind the greatest business decisions of all times. In this fully original book, you'll get a glimpse into the thought processes leading up to these groundbreaking moments and will learn how the decisions have shaped the thinking of today's top leaders. The book also contains an insightful foreword by management guru Jim Collins, the author of Built To Last and Good To Great, which explains the importance of decision making in creating a successful company.

In this remarkable work, Robert Skidelsky unites his experience, knowledge and talents in a sweeping account of money and power' James K. GalbraithThe dominant view in economics is that money and government should play only a minor role in economic life. Money, it is claimed, is nothing more than a medium of exchange; and economic outcomes are best left to the 'invisible hand' of the market. The view taken in this important new book is that the omnipresence of uncertainty make money and government essential features of any market economy. One reason we need money is because we don't know what the future will bring. Government - good government - makes the future more predictable and therefore reduces this kind of demand for money.

Las empresas familiares tienen una presencia mayoritaria en los tejidos productivos de las economías contemporáneas. Aportan porcentajes elevados de la fuerza de trabajo y generan un elevado valor añadido a sus producciones. Los empresarios que forman este entramado de firmas constituyen la mayor parte de las empresas y son los artifices del mantenimiento y la perdurabilidad en los mercados de las iniciativas que ponen en marcha. Manuel Pelaez Castillo, creador de la empresa constructora ECISA sobre la que se centra este libro constituye una prueba fehaciente de todo ello. Basandose en documentacion empresarial y personal, el texto reconstruye la trayectoria historica de la empresa en sus diferentes aspectos al hilo de la biografia de la figura irrepetible de su fundador. La historia empresarial tiene con esta publicacion un trabajo fundamental sobre las empresas familiares en la España contemporanea en la que se ponen de manifiesto las virtudes, los elementos que favorecen el crecimiento y el desarrollo y tambien las restricciones bajo las que operan los empresarios familiares. El libro aporta tambien la vision personal del empresario, de su caracter emprendedor, de su actividad social, su defensa de la accion institucional del colectivo empresarial y su interes por la responsabilidad social a traves de las diversas iniciativas de las que fue protagonista.

La tecnología no es neutral. Las nuevas tecnologías digitales constituyen la nueva ropa del capitalismo de siempre. Reflejan valores, principios e intereses de un abanico de creadores, entre ellos, nosotros como usuarios. Hoy, como ayer, la revolucion tecnologica ayuda decisivamente a la transformacion de las configuraciones socioeconomicas, a una velocidad tan vertiginosa que los distintos sistemas regulatorios no consiguen mantener el ritmo. No obstante, la precariedad laboral o el desempleo son fenomenos antisociales que conviven con nosotros desde mucho antes de esta irrupcion. La novedad, que si es sustancial, esta en los nuevos modelos de negocio basados en plataformas digitales y sus politicas de recursos humanos. ¿Cual es el futuro del trabajo en un mundo constantemente transformado por la innovacion tecnologica? ¿El trabajador el humano vivira mejor mañana, o peor? ¿Hasta que punto las nuevas tecnologias roboticas estan transformando el trabajo? Los problemas sociales mas profundos que nos rodean estan ocasionados por las decisiones humanas, y no por la tecnologia, en un mundo analogico y digital. El riesgo al que nos enfrentamos no tiene que ver realmente con la sustitucion tecnologia o robotica, sino con la distribucion que se realice de los beneficios y los perjuicios en la aplicacion generalizada de las nuevas tecnologias ¿Como puede protegerse a los trabajadores en un ecosistema donde la fusion de las nuevas tecnologias amplia sus limites desdibujando gradualmente las fronteras fisica, digital y biologica? Se debe denunciar la deliberada elaboracion de una narrativa, con significantes vacios explicativos, que distorsiona la aparicion de profundas brechas en el contrato social, en la legislacion y en el modelo de proteccion social. El verdadero temor no es a la tecnologia, sino al capitalismo aumentado y descontrolado tecnologicamente. La verdadera realidad aumentada. Con el dialogo social debemos proponer nuevos marcos normativos que acorten y hagan mas justa la compleja transicion digital.
