Scenario Planning: Managing for the Future

2006 y.
Publisher:
Description: Scenario planning has received much top-level interest in the corporate sector as a way of realistically assessing the long-term future. Yet seldom are line managers included in initiatives, even though their exposure to customers and competitors means they often pick up subtle signals that are the first alert of changes to the operating environment. By exposing line managers to alternative scenarios, organizations can reduce the risk of ignoring the small environmental changes that are the advance warning for major discontinuities. Now completely updated in a new edition, the message of this practical, hands-on guide is that scenarios are not predictions or forecasts, but powerful weapons in managing the uncertainties of the future. Taking a conceptual rather than mathematical approach, it includes a wealth of case studies, checklists, early indicators and examples. [detailed...]

Scenario in Business

y.
Publisher:
Description: As organizations operate in an increasingly complex and often confusing world, they find it even more difficult to plan. In this practical and comprehensive guide Gill Ringland shows how scenario thinking can help organizations think about uncertainty ina structured way and manage their own future. In use at Royal/Dutch Shell since the late 1960s, scenario thinking is now widely accepted as a valuable method for informing decisions. This book focuses on the use of scenarios in business, as part of a strategic management toolkit. Drawing on a wealth of global examples, Scenarios in Business will provide managers at all levels with the knowledge, best practice guidelines and a practical set of tools to bring scenarios into their own organization It is worth remembering that everything possible today was at one time impossible. It therefore follows that everything impossible today may at sometime in the future be possible. But, most importantly, in the end the future is not [detailed...]

Scenic Spots: Chinese Tourism, the State, And Cultural Authority (A China Program Book)

2006 y.
Publisher:
Description: Twenty years ago, commercial tourism in the People`s Republic of China hardly existed. Today, China has a burgeoning tourist industry, characterized by a unique style with deep roots in traditional Chinese culture. Scenic Spots is an engaging exploration of why Chinese tourists pursue certain kinds of experiences, what they make of them, and how their experiences and interpretations are shaped by the state. Working from within a Chinese cultural framework, PA?l NyAri argues that China`s brand of tourism is distinct from the traditions of both Western bourgeois tourism, which values authenticity, and Soviet tourism, with its emphasis on rugged and selfless experience. In China, tourism development is guided by the state, and `scenic spots` (jingdian) and theme parks are used to demonstrate China`s heroic past and as tools of patriotic education and modernization - or as forms of `indoctritainment.` The tourist site is perceived as a product, and, as such, it is bounded, approved, [detailed...]

Scent of Danger

Publisher: Pocket Star
Description: Handsome, charismatic and successful beyond his wildest dreams, street kid-turned-perfume magnate Carson Brooks has it all-except the knowledge of whether an anonymous sperm donation he made almost 30 years earlier resulted in a child. When a gunshot from an unknown assailant permanently damages his kidneys, the question of paternity becomes critical. Incredibly, Carson`s attorney and protg Dylan Newport manages to track down Carson`s daughter, management consultant Sabrina Radcliffe, in less than a day. In just as little time, Dylan persuades her to leave her budding business, meet her father, step in as president of Carson`s company and part with one of her kidneys. As Sabrina`s bond with Carson deepens, so do her feelings for Dylan, but their blossoming relationship is threatened by someone intent on eliminating them. Many of the plot elements are both improbable and familiar from other romances, but Kane`s (No Way Out, The Gold Coin) diverse cast of characters and careful [detailed...]

Scents of the City

2004 y.
Publisher:
Description: Book DescriptionAll too often, the smells and flavors of a city are simple, sad, monotonous, or uniform. Then again, they can be as overwhelming as cheap perfume. In spite of these extremes--or perhaps because of them--the smells of the city are hardly ever noticed. Sometimes, however, the flaneur `s nose catches a surprising freshness, a breeze bearing the merest traces of a scent which captivates our sense and turns everyday banality into poetry. Scents of the City is Ruedi Baur and Isabelle Naegele`s collection of samples and patterns found in a wide range of public spaces throughout the world of cities. The result of a multi-year obsession, Scents of the City reveals a dense collection which, for the artists, denotes a `city the flavor of which is so difficult to describe with words.` Examples are taken from a wide range of cities, both large and small, and the differences between cities are further expressed through the use of multiple languages, with short [detailed...]
