The author has credibility because of his successful past in business, which is always nice. I like his 4D Mix (Doing, Deciding, Designing, and Delegating) to analyze business operations. He fortified the idea that if you delegate, you should NOT later make decisions about what you delegated. That defeats the purpose. But it's an easy trap into that trap. But based on this insight, this week I encouraged my employee to make important decisions by "empowering" her. It worked beautifully.Mike has a way of conceptualizing business methods that make you wonder why you never thought of that. This book is no exception. Full of TONS of practical advice, but more importantly you will view your role as a business owner differently after reading this. Dr Branom: A scientist, co-developer of the Ludovico technique. He appears friendly and almost paternal towards Alex at first, before forcing him into the theatre and what Alex calls the "chair of torture". From the description, it sounded very different than what it actually was. It was OK, but I had expected better. HDM isn't a favorite of mine, but it would be a lie to say that it didn't affect me. The characters in that book, and their connections with each other, really left a lasting impression. This, not so much. It really felt written for children in a way that The Golden Compass et al was not written for children, and by that, I mean, kind of simplistically and felt kind of dumbed down. I hate using that phrase when talking about children's and young adult books, because I do not think that a book written for children is "dumbed down" when read by an adult. I love children's books and stories, and I continue to enjoy them to this day. But I know that Pullman can write much better than shown here. Much, much better, which is why I use the term. Here is the entire book in one sentence: decide what the most important thing your business does/should be doing is and then find really good people to do it for you.

Karakterisasinya mantap, plotnya superb, dan yang jelas terdapat beberapa bagian yang mendebarkan.

Acho que é um leitura excelente pra ler em sequência do livro “o mito do empreendedor”. Já que um estimula se enxergar e desestimula fazer e cumprir vários papéis e este outro fala sobre o que acontece depois, quando você consegue se desfazer de vários papéis , contrata pessoas e recebe o inferno de demandas dessas pessoas porque delegou mal - por fim, o autor tem argumentos sobre como se livrar dessa segunda etapa.

In the first edition of the book, no key was provided, and the reader was left to interpret the meaning from the context. In his appendix to the restored edition, Burgess explained that the slang would keep the book from seeming dated, and served to muffle "the raw response of pornography" from the acts of violence. Fritz wrote down the story after having a dream, but he has not thought of an ending for it, and hopes that he will be able to think up one on the spot: "He was just going to wind up the story, set it going, and make up the end when he got there."

The author also takes the moral position that fulfilment cannot come solely from dreams, and needs dedicated hard work allied with inspiration to be achieved. Karl makes a Faustian bargain with Dr. Kalmenius because he wants an easy way to fulfil his ambition. The Faustian allusions are made clear when Sir Ironsoul becomes murderous when the word "devil" is mentioned and can only be stopped by a special song. [5] Cuando se da cuerda a un reloj, hay algo terible en la forma implacable en que avanza a su ritmo. Las manecillas se mueven sin interrupción alrededor de la esfera como si tuvieran inteligencia propia. ¡Tic, tac, tic, tac! Poco a poco van progresando y nos señalan con firmeza el camino hacia la tumba.

Analyze your own 4D mix, then your company’s 4D mix. In the book / complete summary, you can get more details on how to use the Time Analysis Worksheet to analyze and identify the gap between your existing and ideal 4D mix. 2. Define your Organization’s Queen Bee Role (QBR) This book is really radical and mind-blowing. It introduces possibilities that you never thought would be possible as a small business owner and also gives a step-by-step process on getting there. The book promises that after putting into practice all the 7 steps of streamlining and automating your business operations it's possible to have a 4-week vacation without doing any of your businesses work. It's a fascinating idea that puts things in a different perspective. Also the book is full of practical steps to make those radical goals possible, which really sets it apart from many business books. This title alludes to the protagonist's negative emotional responses to feelings of evil which prevent the exercise of his free will subsequent to the administration of the Ludovico Technique. To induce this conditioning, Alex is forced to watch scenes of violence on a screen that are systematically paired with negative physical stimulation. The negative physical stimulation takes the form of nausea and "feelings of terror", which are caused by an emetic medicine administered just before the presentation of the films.
