Public Opinion
Twenty-four news networks, a plethora of newspapers and magazines, vibrant news-talk radio, and the ubiquitous Internet highlight our society as information-driven. With such a steady stream of hard facts mixed with publicised opinions, the mainstream population has an opinion on everything. Most anyone seems itching to argue their side of an issue, making once private beliefs fodder for general consumption. A staple of any medium's content is a regular public opinion poll on whatever hot topic strikes the editor's fancy. From the significant to the mundane, public opinion permeates society. Accordingly, politicians have taken note of these opinions and adopted stands and values that put them in tune with public sentiment. An understanding of the nature of public opinion, therefore, is paramount in today's world. This book assembles and presents a carefully chosen bibliography on public opinion in its many forms. The collection of references makes for a valuable resource in studying and researching the critical issue of public opinion. Easy access to these pieces of literature are then provided with author, title, and subject indexes.

Au-delà de la saga Swatch
Nicolas G. Hayek, c'est le sauveur de l'horlogerie suisse, la " success story " de la Swatch. Mais c'est avant tout un homme hors normes dont les succès sont multiples et qui, en tant que conseil d'entreprise et entrepreneur, a acquis une réputation mondiale. " L'homme n'est pas ce qu'il est, il est ce qu'il fait ", disait Malraux. C'est ce qu'incarne parfaitement Nicolas G. Hayek. Passionné, humaniste, exigeant, innovateur, il affronte sans détour les réalités du monde d'aujourd'hui en vivant son métier d'entrepreneur comme un formidable levier pour pouvoir changer les choses. Homme de liberté et d'engagement, il exprime sans langue de bois des convictions qui sortent des sentiers battus. Dans une période caractérisée par les incertitudes, les questionnements, les doutes et les craintes, dans un environnement où il ne peut être fait abstraction de la composante " entreprise ", il est peut-être utile d'entendre les enseignements d'un homme qui croit en l'avenir.
Historians on Leadership and Strategy
This book examines the well-covered subject of leadership from a unique perspective: history's vast catalogue of leadership successes and failures. Through a collection of highly compelling case studies spanning two millennia, it looks beyond the classic leadership parable of men in military or political crises and shows that successful leadership cannot be reduced to simplistic formulae. Written by experts in the field and based on rigorous research, each case provides a rich and compelling account that is accessible to a wide audience, from students to managers. Rather than serving as a vehicle for advancing a particular theory of leadership, each case invites readers to reflect, debate and extract their own insights.
