Return to Growth - How to Fix the Economy – Volume Two

Jon Moynihan

Sinopse

The acclaimed Return to Growth Volume One by Jon Moynihan – one of our finest economic thinkers – addressed the mystery of why growth has deserted western democracies like the UK and wrote a tough prescription to cure our economic ills.
Continuing his vital examination in Volume Two, Moynihan looks at the causes of our stagnation, reminding readers of the three 'devils' that affect our ability to achieve growth – high government spending, excessive tax and regulation and too much bureaucratic interference and waste – and finding that the new UK government shows no sign of addressing them. He then isolates and delves into the three crucial 'angels' that support growth in the economy and that we urgently need to embrace – free markets, free trade and sound money. He concludes with a set of practical steps on how we can restructure our government and economy, so as to return it to the growth the UK has been so desperately lacking for the past several decades.
In this powerful manifesto for economic change, Moynihan combines his extraordinary business acuity with a profound political overview, making an authoritative moral case for action, outlining the steps we can take both to reverse our decline and to avert impending economic disaster.

Whale Hunting - How to Land Big...

Anônimo

For centuries, the Inuit people of Alaska and Canada have thrived  in some of the harshest lands on Earth. In the long Arctic winters  that last from October to May, food is scarce and survival is a  struggle. Nothing grows on the icy land and the Inuit are forced to  rely upon the animals of the land and sea to provide their  sustenance. They hunt the caribou that roam across the tundra; they  hunt the seals and walrus that swim along the shore; they fish in  freezing, rough seas; and, every year, the Inuit hunt the most  treacherous but prized prey of all, the whales that live in the  deep ocean.   Just like the Inuit, when businesses reach a certain stage of  growth, they face a choice between making many small, safe sales  and concentrating on a small number of big accounts that are hard  to find, hard to land and that involve greater risk. The dynamic is  the same as when the Inuit make the conscious decision to defer  easy hunts for seal and caribou and set out to sea in their umiaks  to find whales. Selling to large accounts is the key to generating  significant growth in sale and revenues. In business, as in the  Arctic, it pays to become a whale hunter.
