Dynamic Tourism - Journeying With Change

Priscilla Boniface

Sinopsis

This book portrays a fresh approach to tourism. It argues for increased and radical change by the tourism industry and claims that this change is made necessary by the emergent sophistication and increased experience of tourists who require a different style of treatment and type of product. Dynamic Tourism is presented as a formula to meet the needs of the prevalent consumer society, to cater for its changing wishes, to reflect society’s contemporary concerns and to accommodate the ongoing projected growth of tourism. The focus is upon the tourist, highlighting the need for the tourism industry to give greater consideration to tourists’ changing needs, and to take a more flexible, modern and thought-out approach. The argument is delivered in three parts. First, the book indicates why Dynamic Tourism is needed as a method, and shows its first signs of appearing. It then delivers the detail and practicality of the process. Finally, the complete concept is outlined and the method of future implementation is projected. Examples from around the world are used to explain and illustrate the argument. Underlying the whole discussion is the recognition that the tourism arena is a resource of finite size, needing capacity for renewal and requiring the most intelligent, adaptable and considered use. The intended readership for this book includes all participants in the tourism experience: the tourism industry, its policy makers, operatives and stakeholders, and those students who intend to join their ranks, existing tourists who are disappointed with the limited provision offered to them at present and who wish for better in the future, along with the increasing number of new tourists whose outlook is very different from those of the past.

NEGOTIATION: How to Influence...

Michael Branson

What are the Stages of Negotiation?
• Preparation
• Discussion
• Clarifying Goals
• Negotiate Towards a Win-Win Outcome
• Agreement
• Implementing a Course of Action
The body language speaks louder than any word you can ever say. If you tell people you love them, are angry, or don't care less about them, your body movements show your emotions, moods, and attitudes. The body tells us, both consciously and sub-consciously, what is really going on with you. In a competitive and complex world, communication skills with clarity, trust, and credibility are vital to success. That skill is all too often ignored. If they are not expressed in a way that persuades, motivates, and encourages the listener, sound reasoning, logical conclusions, and innovative solutions are meaningless.
In this book you’ll learn:
• How to recognize and identify some specific body-specific gestures.
• About actions and expressions that convey and support both the spoken and non-spoken message.
• How to improve your ability to read body language.
• To understand how your body conveys messages.
• To recognize mood and attitude reflected in your gestures and expression.
Why is body language important? Verbal communication makes up only 7 percent of the actual message. In the following order, part of the message is communicated: paraverbal (38 percent) and nonverbal (55 percent). Body language relates to the outward representation of an individual's emotional state. For a person to express his or her real feelings, it is a valuable tool. Only a small part of the way we present ourselves to someone else is expressed through words. Creating a good impression requires you to have your body language known and controlled.

Built-In Social - Essential...

Jeff Korhan

Marketing today is driven by the customer. The old mindset was  one of finding customers for your products and services.  The  new one is to find products and services for the customers whose  trust you have earned. Businesses that are succeeding today have  acknowledged that as a result of new media they are in shared  relationships with customers, employees, and other influencers in  the community - even competitors.  Social Centric Business is for the silent (and  massive) majority whose collective destiny depends on building a  business channel that aligns their business with its ideal  customers, so that they can serve them well and ensure their  continued relevance and success. Intended for mainstream businesses  that want to get results from social media networking and marketing  but have been frustrated by the obstacles, namely, the lack of a  basic method or structure (and a practical step-by-step approach)  for converting relevant social qualities--visibility, authenticity,  accessibility, community, and relevance--into profitable  outcomes.

Matthew G. Carter

Everything you need to know about profiting from momentum stocks without getting wiped out.

"The trend is your friend, until the end when it bends!"

There are two types of trend traders - those who follow the trend and make profits, and those who follow the trend, make profits, and then lose it in the end. Which of these traders do you want to be?

Trend trading is certainly a good thing - people like John. W. Henry earned millions of dollars from trend trading. From the proceeds of his investments, he bought the Boston Red Sox and the Liverpool Football Club and today, he is worth over $2.2 billion. 

The truth is that trend following is a very controversial topic; many financial advisors would advise you to stay off trend stocks, and that they don’t work for stocks but people like John W. Henry have proven them wrong.

People who tell you to stay off trend following simply have no idea about how to trade trend stocks; there are methods to these things, and in this book, you’re about to learn some of the secret strategies that successful trend traders use.

This is where your momentum stock success journey begins. Here is a preview of what you'll learn:

What trend following is 
Where to find the best trend stocks 
When to buy a stock 
When to take your profits
When to exit a losing trade 
And basically everything you need to know about profiting from momentum stocks without getting wiped out.
