Sinopsis

Corporate Open Source examines the growing trend of major software companies contributing to open-source projects and its impact on innovation, developer ecosystems, and the broader technology landscape. The book highlights how strategic corporate involvement can foster innovation and enhance brand reputation. Interestingly, open-source development has shifted from being primarily driven by individual enthusiasts to a mainstream practice where corporations play a dominant role. 

 
The book explores the motivations behind corporate open-source initiatives, the organizational structures that enable successful contributions, and the resulting impact on developer ecosystems. It emphasizes the importance of balancing business interests with genuine community engagement. Through case studies and research, the book demonstrates that a purely self-serving approach can backfire, alienating developers and undermining the potential benefits.

 
The book begins by introducing core open-source concepts and then explores corporate motivations, models, and ethical considerations. This approach provides a comprehensive analysis of the interplay between corporate strategy and community values, making it valuable for software developers, technology managers, and business executives seeking to understand the evolving dynamics of technology management and business management in the open-source world.

Loving Monday - Succeeding in...

John D. Beckett

Instead of grinding it out until Friday and living only for weekends, a successful Ohio manufacturing executive has seen how his work can be filled with meaning and purpose. The key is integrating his work and beliefs. As a result, both grow--along with his love for Mondays.When Peter Jennings and ABC News wanted to do a story on John Beckett's company, Beckett's reaction was immediate and unqualified: "No way. We're not going to let ABC News barge into the R. W. Beckett Corporation, shoot a lot of footage, extract a few sound bites and say whatever they want to say about us on national TV!"But Beckett reconsidered and took a chance because he had a message and he wanted others to hear it. The message is simple: that living examples of integrity and excellence are needed more than ever in the workplace and in the marketplace. That you can love your work, be a person of principle and succeed.Jennings summarized the story that later aired on ABC by saying, "They are using the Bible as a guide to business." In Loving Monday Beckett fleshes out this theme, explaining how his company still uses the same truths that have guided individuals and civilations for centuries. He shows how these time-tested truths can be applied faithfully and successfully in today's fast-paced, high-tech, market-driven world.Beckett brings all of life together: work, belief, value, character, relationship, truth, worship and joy. For accountants, day-care operators, sales managers, CEOs of mega-corporations, hospital administrators, pastors, plumbers and police chiefs, he offers biblically-grounded, practically-minded principles on succeeding in business without "selling out." His book will be a cherished companion for all who love their work or want to.
