How to Create Profitable Business Strategy for the Internet and
Beyond
"Lots of books have been written about how to do business on
the Internet, but few can match the understanding and passion for
making e-commerce work of Patricia Seybold's Customers.com. Drawing
on case studies of companies and organizations as diverse as Boeing,
Babson College, National Semiconductor, Hertz, PhotoDisc, and Wells
Fargo, Seybold identifies what makes e-commerce work successfully.
She argues that any e-commerce initiative has to begin with the
customer."

Direct from Dell:
Strategies That Revolutionized an Industry
The PC business is full of rags-to-riches stories. But perhaps none
is as dramatic as the rise of Dell Computer. In Direct from Dell,
founder and CEO Michael Dell tells how he started his company from
a dorm room at the University of Texas with less than $1,000 and
built it into an industry powerhouse with a market capitalization
of well over $100 billion. What makes Dell Computer unique is not
what it sells, but rather how it sells it. Dell was first in the
PC industry to pioneer the direct-selling model, a method that competitors
such as Compaq and Apple Computer are only now starting to embrace.

Business @ the Speed of Thought:
Using a Digital Nervous System
So where do you want to go tomorrow? That's the question Bill Gates
tries to answer in Business @ the Speed of Thought. Gates offers
a 12-step program for companies wanting to do business in the next
millennium. The book's premise: Thanks to technology, the speed
of business is accelerating at an ever-increasing rate, and to survive,
it must develop an infrastructure--a "digital nervous system"--that
allows for the unfettered movement of information inside a company.
Gates writes that "The most meaningful way to differentiate your
company from your competition ... is to do an outstanding job with
information. How you gather, manage, and use information will determine
whether you win or lose."

110 Best Careers for the 21st Century
It's the great contemporary struggle--finding work that satisfies
the soul and fills the purse. In the old days, you'd have mended
shoes, tempered iron, or tilled the fields, and if there was food
on the table and your children were healthy, you'd count yourself
a success. But those times are long past. Now there's the pernicious
concept of job satisfaction to deal with, plus requisite baubles
like 27-inch televisions, Pentium-chip computers, and name-brand
sneakers to purchase, and so the pressure mounts. If you're vying
with notions like downsizing and job marketability, it's worth looking
at the jobs of the future.
