Sinopsis

OverviewAt the heart of most supply chains lies a planning tool called Material Requirements Planning (MRP). Invented in the 1950s, codifed in the 1960s and commercialized in the 1970s, MRP became THE way of life for supply order generation and synchronization throughout the world. Yet the people that interact with MRP everyday know that something is very wrong. They may not be able to explain exactly why, but they know that if they did exactly what MRP told them to do, it would have disastrous consequences for their company and their career.  What if there was one fatal flaw in MRP that makes it distort the relevant information that planners, companies, and supply chains are desperately seeking? What if correcting this one fatal flaw would allow the promise of MRP to be attained and the bullwhip to be effectively mitigated? Precisely Wrong: Why Conventional Planning Fails and How to Fix It will expose this fatal flaw and trace its impact to everyday situations encountered by planners and buyers and the larger supply chain.Additionally, an elegant solution to overcome this flaw will be revealed. Readers will walk away with a new depth of understanding about conventional planning systems and a list of things they can begin to implement the very next day.  This work goes beyond the planning mechanisms of an organization and shows a roadmap for all levels to drive adaptation, protect and promote the flow of relevant information, and survive and thrive in the today’s complex and volatile environment.FeaturesProvides an unique and simple view of the core problem underlying these systems, enabling a company to see a clear and relevant planning picture.Gives companies an essential description of the most known and pervasive issue in supply chain called the “bullwhip  effect”, and how it relates to the core problem.For more information, videos, and more, visit the officialPrecisely Wrong website at www.preciselywrong.com.

    Individuals carrying social intelligence can sense the feeling of other individuals, innately know how to respond in critical social situations, and appear largely assertive, even in a mass congregation. In 1920, American psychologist Edward Thorndike first established the theory of social intelligence and conveyed the veracity to the world at large. What he felt the intrinsic value of social intelligence was the capacity to consider and control men and women, boys and girls, to behave wisely in human relationships.  
    No one has become born socially smart. Rather, it entails a skill set that a person learns over time. It's not as simple as mastering the idea of social intelligence. If it were, there would never have been another intriguing conversation at a gathering. Striving for a powerful social intelligence, however, can lead to a better lifestyle or at least a smoother time to make some new companions.

    Thomas L. Friedman's number-one bestseller The World Is Flat has helped millions of readers to see globalization in a new way. Now Friedman brings a fresh outlook to the crises of destabilizing climate change and rising competition for energy—both of which could poison our world if we do not act quickly and collectively. His argument speaks to all of us who are concerned about the state of America in the global future.  
    Friedman proposes that an ambitious national strategy- which he calls "Geo-Greenism"—is not only what we need to save the planet from overheating; it is what we need to make America healthier, richer, more innovative, more productive, and more secure.  
    As in The World Is Flat, he explains a new era—the Energy-Climate era—through an illuminating account of recent events. He shows how 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, and the flattening of the world by the Internet (which brought 3 billion new consumers onto the world stage) have combined to bring climate and energy issues to Main Street. But they have not gone very far down Main Street; the much-touted "green revolution" has hardly begun. With all that in mind, Friedman sets out the clean-technology breakthroughs we, and the world, will need; he shows that the ET (Energy Technology) revolution will be both transformative and disruptive; and he explains why America must lead this revolution—with the first Green President and a Green New Deal, spurred by the Greenest Generation.  
    Hot, Flat, and Crowded is classic Thomas L. Friedman—fearless, incisive, forward-looking, and rich in surprising common sense about the world we live in today.A Macmillan Audio production.

    Learn how you can craft your high-converting sales funnel and turn more and more leads into customers!In this audiobook, I am going to give you an introduction to the exact price points, and what to include in your reverse funnel.Now, in your case, you don't have to use these exact price points, so this is just going to be an example.What you'll be able to do in your business is to take this example and compare it to what you have in your niche. You may think about what your competitors are offering, although that's not normally the way that I like to think about pricing, because you're positioning yourself as the only expert that is the very best in the world at doing X, Y, Z. And when you're the only expert in the world that can do X, Y, Z, you can charge more than anybody else, because you're the only person in the world that can do it.It creates an incredible level of scarcity for you. You're the only person in the world that can do it, so if someone wants to learn what you know, they must purchase it from you. By default, therefore, they must pay your price. It gives you an incredible amount of pricing control when you position sales the way that I've been teaching.

    Salespeople run this planet.  
    Selling is the oldest and highest-paying profession in existence. Sellers control their results, have no limit on how much they can prosper, get paid for what they produce, and can generally get their way in life. Sounds like a great gig.  
    So why are so many people averse to selling?  
    "I don't like sales."  
    "I like to know how much money I'm making."  
    "I don't want to be one of those people who are selling all the time!"  
    These mindsets have been taught, adopted, and ingrained into many minds. The minds of people who have less control over their lives than they should have. People whose limits are created for them, without their input. People whose success is subject to someone else's feelings or opinions.  
    All because they've been taught wrong (or not taught at all).  
    That's where The Seller's Mindset comes in.  
    This book is about the mindset of selling - not only for business, but for life itself. You will use what you learn here to earn commissions, build your own businesses, win debate team competitions, barber shop arguments, settle on favorable terms in negotiations, and generally get your way, period.  
    If you are already sold on sales, this book is your gas station to refuel that motivation to go get it.  
    If you afraid of selling (and if you don't like sales - it's because you're afraid), this book is the light chasing out the darkness of ignorance someone unfairly put on you.  
    Salespeople run this planet. Why are you still walking?
