  Chokepoint Capitalism - How Big...

  A call to action for the creative class and labor movement to rally against the power of Big Tech and Big Media 
  Corporate concentration has breached the stratosphere, as have corporate profits. An ever-expanding constellation of industries are now monopolies (where sellers have excessive power over buyers) or monopsonies (where buyers hold the whip hand over sellers)—or both. 
  In Chokepoint Capitalism, scholar Rebecca Giblin and writer and activist Cory Doctorow argue we’re in a new era of “chokepoint capitalism,” with exploitative businesses creating insurmountable barriers to competition that enable them to capture value that should rightfully go to others. All workers are weakened by this, but the problem is especially well-illustrated by the plight of creative workers. From Amazon’s use of digital rights management and bundling to radically change the economics of book publishing, to Google and Facebook’s siphoning away of ad revenues from news media, and the Big Three record labels’ use of inordinately long contracts to up their own margins at the cost of artists, chokepoints are everywhere. 
  By analyzing book publishing and news, live music and music streaming, screenwriting, radio and more, Giblin and Doctorow deftly show how powerful corporations construct “anti-competitive flywheels” designed to lock in users and suppliers, make their markets hostile to new entrants, and then force workers and suppliers to accept unfairly low prices. 
  In the book’s second half, Giblin and Doctorow then explain how to batter through those chokepoints, with tools ranging from transparency rights to collective action and ownership, radical interoperability, contract terminations, job guarantees, and minimum wages for creative work.

  Marc Wilson is not giving up. He is determined to turn around the struggling family company and keep it, despite his father's decision to sell. The problem is that they are late on more and more projects and their customers won't tolerate it anymore. Marc is looking everywhere for a solution, when in one of his MBA classes he comes across a unique approach that views operations in terms of flow. 
   
   
   
  The concept of flow is straightforward. It's easy to visualize the stream of projects going through the system and understand that if something clogs the flow, the projects pile up; the lead time gets longer, and as a result the reliability of due dates suffers. What is not so easy is to uncover the specific obstacles that obstruct the flow and figure out how to remove them. 
   
   
   
  Whether you're a manager in engineering, IT, service, or sales, this book will help you gain much better predictability and significantly improve your delivery.

  There are those who think the goal of investing is to beat the market and amass as much wealth as possible, that street smarts and hard work ensure investment success, and that the road to happiness is paved with more of everything. And then there are those who get it. Want a more prosperous, less stressful financial life? Jonathan Clements, longtime personal finance columnist for The Wall Street Journal, is here to help. His goal: to provide readers with a coherent way to think about their finances, so they worry less about money, make smarter financial choices and squeeze more happiness out of the dollars that they have. How to Think About Money is built around five key ideas: 
  - Money can buy happiness, but we need to spend with great care. 
  - Most of us will enjoy an extraordinarily long life--and that has profound financial implications. 
  - We are hardwired for financial failure, so sensible money management takes great mental strength. 
  - We need to bring order to our financial life--by focusing on our paycheck, or lack thereof. 
  - If we want to add to our wealth, we should strive to minimize the subtractions. 
   
  "Now why didn't I think of that? That's what you'll ask yourself after you read Jonathan Clements's fine new book. Its beauty lies in the commonsense and wisdom that is summed up in just five simple steps that will help you to earn your financial independence. Easy to understand, essential to follow."--John C. Bogle, founder, The Vanguard Group

In this new paradigm—the project economy—new approaches are needed for sustained success. Modern project management tools and capabilities are essential, but they are only the beginning.

Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez shows listeners how to embrace the deep changes in leadership style and organizational structures necessary for projects and initiatives to flourish. Exploring the practical strategies and deep case studies of project-driven organizations, you will learn to decentralize decision-making to empower people to break through the bottlenecks that slow down transformation; prioritize ruthlessly and sponsor actively to ensure resources are directed to high-value initiatives; develop your organization's transformation muscles to remain resilient, adaptive, and relevant; measure success with project-specific metrics; integrate project analytics and AI to support real-time decision-making, predictive planning, and risk reduction; and cultivate the next generation of project leaders who will drive the implementation of your initiatives faster and with higher impact.
