H vding: The Airbag for Cyclists
by Emilie Billaud Joseph FullerIn 2012, Anna Haupt and Terese Alstin, cofounders of the H vding company, reflect on the evolution of their venture and the way forward. Since 2005, Haupt and Alstin had been working on a new type of bicycle helmet-an "airbag for cyclists". What had begun as a thesis had grown into a seven-year journey of research and development, including raising over $5 million of venture capital. The product had been granted Europe's CE certification in 2011 and had been launched simultaneously in Sweden and Norway. Yet, a year later, the company had still not reached the breakeven point. To help them establish a commercialization strategy, the H vding board had prevailed upon the founders to hire a professional CEO. But surrendering management control was an emotional process for Haupt and Alstin, while the CEO struggled to assert his leadership and build the company's commercial capabilities. Should Haupt and Alstin collaborate with their CEO despite their misgivings or should they step away from the company they had dedicated seven years to building?
H2H Marketing: The Genesis of Human-to-Human Marketing
by Philip Kotler Waldemar Pfoertsch Uwe SponholzIn H2H Marketing the authors focus on redefining the role of marketing by reorienting the mindset of decision-makers and integrating the concepts of Design Thinking, Service-Dominant Logic and Digitalization. It’s not just technological advances that have made it necessary to revisit the way everybody thinks about marketing; customers and marketers as human decision-makers are changing, too.

The authors review the status quo of marketing and outline its evolution to the new H2H Marketing. In turn, they demonstrate the new marketing paradigm with the H2H Marketing Model, which incorporates Design Thinking, Service-Dominant Logic and the latest innovations in Digitalization. With the new H2H Mindset, Trust and Brand Management and the evolution of the operative Marketing Mix to the updated, dynamic and iterative H2H Process, they offer a way for marketing to find meaning in a troubled world.

H2H-Marketing – von Menschen für Menschen: Marketing mit mehr Verantwortung und Nachhaltigkeit – Konzeption und Umsetzung
by Philip Kotler Waldemar Pförtsch Uwe SponholzDieses Buch zeigt, warum sich Marketing zu einem nachhaltigeren und verantwortungsvollen Handeln weiterentwickeln muss und wie das professionell gelingen kann. Unternehmen müssen heute die Beziehung zu den Menschen in den Mittelpunkt ihres unternehmerischen Wirkens setzen. Neue Angebote, Kommunikations- und Vertriebskonzepte sind dafür notwendig, um die gestiegenen Erwartungen der Menschen von heute erfüllen zu können. Für Unternehmen ist damit die große Chance verbunden, sich als proaktive Change Agents zu positionieren und eine authentische, sinnstiftende sowie verantwortungsvolle Rolle bei der Lösung der Probleme ihrer Kunden einzunehmen. Das H2H-Modell integriert dafür in einzigartiger Form aktuelle Managementkonzepte sowie Design Thinking und Service-Dominant Logic, gepaart mit den Chancen der Digitalisierung. Zugleich vereinfacht es kompliziert gewordene Marketingprozesse und implementiert fortschrittliche Management- und Entscheidungskonzepte. Die junge Generation kritisiert zu Recht, dass zu viel über Klimawandel, Nachhaltigkeit und wachsende Armut geredet, aber zu wenig gehandelt wird. Stattdessen wird der Hyperkonsum weiter angeheizt. Die Jugend legt den Finger in die Wunde. Es ist Zeit, jetzt umzudenken. Unternehmen, die dieser Botschaft keine Taten folgen lassen, werden Kunden verlieren. Wer diesen Weg in die Zukunft beschreiten will, muss bereit sein, neue Gedanken zuzulassen und den Menschen mit seinen Bedürfnissen und Erwartungen konsequent in den Mittelpunkt zu stellen. Den Leitfaden dazu bietet dieses Buch – mit gut durchdachten Konzepten und inspirierenden Beispielen.

The Habit of Labor: Lessons from a Life of Struggle and Success
by Stef Wertheimer“There’s no better way to explain the miracle of Israel than to examine the life of Stef Wertheimer . . . A story to be read by everyone” (Warren Buffett). Forced to flee Nazi Germany with his family at age ten, Stef Wertheimer came to British Palestine in the late 1930s. He promptly dropped out of school, learned a trade through apprenticeship, and played a meaningful role in Israel’s War of Independence. He also started a company—ISCAR—that began in a shed and ultimately made him one of the world’s great self-made industrialists. In The Habit of Labor, Wertheimer shares the lessons he learned from a life of hardship and struggle in one of the world’s newest industrial powers. Both a pragmatist and a visionary, Wertheimer has devoted much of his life to promoting Jewish and Arab economic development through innovative educational and vocational programs, along with the establishment of a series of thriving industrial parks in Israel and in Turkey. The future of Israel, he believes, is not in military might or diplomatic alliances but in its growing economic clout.

El hábito de liderar: Cómo piensa actúa la gente de éxito
by Adidas WilsonEscuchará a las personas poner excusas diciendo que no nacieron con el talento necesario para lograr el éxito. Es cierto que hay personas que han nacido con ventajas de alguna manera. Sin embargo, lograr el éxito en algo se condensa en comprometerse y dedicar el tiempo necesario para aprender y perfeccionar una habilidad. De hecho, el talento es solo un comienzo. Nadie niega que existe el talento natural. Hay personas con ventajas genéticas, especialmente cuando nos referimos a las habilidades físicas. Sin embargo, el éxito no siempre es un asunto físico para la mayoría de las personas. Solo quieren hacer algo y ser buenos en eso. Quieren ganar un salario decente mientras hacen algo que los satisfaga, todo para tener una vida cómoda. Cada persona exitosa que ves tuvo que trabajar duro para llegar allí; del velocista olímpico al músico de renombre mundial. ¿Quieres triunfar? De acuerdo, deja de meterte en tu camino. "Para ser una estrella, debes reflejar tu propia luz, seguir tu propio camino y no preocuparte por la oscuridad, porque es cuando las estrellas brillan más intensamente". Napoleon Hill
Los hábitos cotidianos de las personas que triunfan: ¿Eres búho, alondra o colibrí?
by Begoña del Pueyo¿Sabías que la eficiencia del reloj biológico aumenta con la rutina, que la siesta puede ser beneficiosa siempre que no supere la media hora, que el ejercicio físico y la meditación estimulan las endorfinas que nos hacen sentir felicidad, o que puedes ganar más dinero, pero que es imposible recuperar el tiempo? ¿Eres búho, alondra o colibrí? Las alondras son madrugadoras y rinden más al mediodía. Los búhos, por el contrario, son productivos de noche. Y los colibríes son quienes mejor se ajustan al ciclo de noche y día. ¿Te gustaría ser alondra, como a la mayoría de las personas que desean triunfar, pero te tienes que conformar con comportarte como un colibrí, igual que el 70% de los españoles? ¿O perteneces al 20% de los búhos? Los testimonios de profesionales de referencia y de especialistas recogidos en este libro permiten arrojar luz sobre los hábitos de nuestra vida cotidiana que influyen en la posibilidad de alcanzar nuestros objetivos. Y con extraordinaria amenidad, salpicado de anécdotas de famosos empresarios, políticos, banqueros, deportistas y artistas, el libro ofrece las claves para optimizar la gestión del tiempo y el rendimiento. «¿Qué es bueno para ti? ¿Qué necesitas para tener éxito? Puede que ya lo sepas o puede que este libro te ayude a descubrirlo.» Del prólogo de Nathalie Picquot, directora general de Twitter España

Habits of Leadership
by Art MarkmanIn his internationally acclaimed book, Smart Thinking, which examines the gap between innate intelligence and acquired mental skills, Art Markman presented a three-part formula to show readers how to develop "smart habits", how to acquire high quality knowledge, and how to use that knowledge when it's needed. Now, Markman takes his scientifically-based formula one step further to demonstrate the correlation between personality and habits, and the impact of personality and habits on leadership potential and innovation success. Habits of Leadership explores the "Big 5" personality characteristics -- Extroversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Openness, and Emotional Stability -- as well as other key variables such as person's ability to acquire and use knowledge or the level of one's tolerance to risk. Using a unique personality profiler, readers are able to determine their strengths and weaknesses and then apply this understanding to develop smart habits. Great leaders have key traits that influence their success. People who are Extroverts can serve as effective advocates for ideas. Those who are low in Agreeableness are willing to tell people things that they do not want to hear, and so facilitate open and honest lines of communication. People high in Conscientiousness get things done. They ensure that a project once started is completed.. Those who are high in Openness and are able to acquire and use knowledge through reasoning, intuition, or perception tend to be good change-makers. Their breadth of knowledge allows them to communicate ideas from a wide variety of sources to innovate and solve problems. And leaders possessed of emotional stability have the clear-mindedness and confidence to navigate through any storm. Individuals who demonstrate these traits and who have developed habits that serve them well, are extraordinary. Yet the potential for greatness is within everyone. Habits of Leadership will show anyone how to develop and use these exceptional gifts.
