Finding the Best Business School for You: Looking Past the Rankings - PDF
Finding the Best Business School for You: Looking Past the Rankings - PDF
نویسندگان: Everette E. Dennis, Sharon P. Smith خلاصه: Ultimately, finding the best and most appropriate business school requires more than following trends and assessing rankings. Dennis and Smith offer an approach that is designed to help prospective MBA students cast their nets widely, thinking more expansively, creatively, and strategically, with both short- and long-term implications in mind. Discussing the pros and cons of a formal business education (in the context of evolving attitudes toward management and the role of the MBA in developing successful leaders), the authors help readers identify their underlying motivations for pursuing an MBA, learn how to read between the lines of the popular rankings, and utilize the concept of return on investment (ROI) to evaluate programs on the basis of their contribution to long-term professional and personal goals. At a time when one-fourth of all master's degrees conferred are in business, Finding the Best Business School for You offers practical insights for making wise decisions and getting the most out of the MBA experience. The truth is that, in response to changes in the global business environment, many schools are redesigning their curricula, forging closer ties with businesses, and giving students more freedom to customize their degrees. Some of the most innovative programs are being designed at public universities and other institutions out of the spotlight.
Making Sense of Japanese: What the Textbooks Don't Tell You - PDF
Making Sense of Japanese: What the Textbooks Don't Tell You - PDF
نویسندگان: Jay Rubin خلاصه: Making Sense of Japanese is the fruit of one foolhardy American's thirty-year struggle to learn and teach the Language of the Infinite. Previously known as Gone Fishin', this book has brought Jay Rubin more feedback than any of his literary translations or scholarly tomes, ''even if,'' he says, ''you discount the hate mail from spin-casters and the stray gill-netter.'' To convey his conviction that ''the Japanese language is not vague,'' Rubin has dared to explain how some of the most challenging Japanese grammatical forms work in terms of everyday English. Reached recently at a recuperative center in the hills north of Kyoto, Rubin declared, ''I'm still pretty sure that Japanese is not vague. Or at least, it's not as vague as it used to be. Probably.'' The notorious ''subjectless sentence'' of Japanese comes under close scrutiny in Part One. A sentence can't be a sentence without a subject, so even in cases where the subject seems to be lost or hiding, the author provides the tools to help you find it. Some attention is paid as well to the rest of the sentence, known technically to grammarians as ''the rest of the sentence.'' Part Two tackles a number of expressions that have baffled students of Japanese over the decades, and concludes with Rubin's patented technique of analyzing upside-down Japanese sentences right-side up, which, he claims, is ''far more restful'' than the traditional way, inside-out. ''The scholar,'' according to the great Japanese novelist Soseki Natsume, is ''one who specializes in making the comprehensible incomprehensible.'' Despite his best scholarly efforts, Rubin seems to have done just the opposite. Previously published in the Power Japanese series under the same title and originally as Gone Fishin' in the same series.

Everything You Ever Needed to Know about Training - PDF
Everything You Ever Needed to Know about Training - PDF
نویسندگان: Kaye Thorne, David Mackey خلاصه: As the title suggests, this book, leaves no stone unturned. From checking the thermostat in the training room to motivating and engaging employees, authors Kaye Thorne and David Mackey cover every detail of how to set up successful training programs. Good companies build strong cultures based on shared values, fairness, open communication and a desire to develop the best employees. Thorne and Mackey urge you to take an honest look at your organization, and strive to create an environment in which employees are enthusiastic and anxious to apply the new skills they've learned. That will enable you to develop an employer brand that resonates with workers and consumers, and sets an example for your peers. Although the book does not have a great deal of original material, the sheer volume of information makes this a valuable resource for trainers, and for companies that already conduct training or are considering implementing it. getAbstract believes that every training professional can benefit from this book, though it seems particularly well suited for those who are new to the field.
DotNetNuke Skinning Tutorial: A simple, clear, step-by-tutorial to creating DotNetNuke skins to put you in control of the look and feel of your DotNetNuke website - PDF
DotNetNuke Skinning Tutorial: A simple, clear, step-by-tutorial to creating DotNetNuke skins to put you in control of the look and feel of your DotNetNuke website - PDF
نویسندگان: Darren Neese خلاصه: As a developer one of my greatest areas of weakness is in the area of design. Where I have always been able to make a site functional, my designs have been merely passable. The author, Darren Neese, takes you from concept to finished product. This book is aimed at beginners, so it is perfect for me, perhaps it will fit your DotNetNuke Skinning needs as well. First, let me say this, I love DotNetNuke. Second, I hate skinning DotNetNuke. As a developer that is my weakest area. In fact, to quote Scott Hanselman: "The difference between a Designer and Developer, when it comes to design skills, is the difference between shooting a bullet and throwing it." - Scott Hanselman with apologies to Larry Miller DotNetNuke Skinning Tutorial makes the design element of DotNetNuke a little easier. It does not automatically make your designs pretty, but it opens up the mystery of creating a design that is functional and usable. I must say thanks to PACKT Publishing for continuing to produce books that break down complicated task in a clear and concise way. If there were one thing that I would add in the next edition of the book, since they use the DotNetNuke Starter Kit install package, is to expose how to install the Starter Kit on Visual Studio 2008, when Visual Studio 2005 is not installed on the PC. I understand that when the book was written VS2008 was not released and by the next release of the book this may be fixed on the DotNetNuke side, but if it is not, there is a small amount of pain to install the package on VS2008.
