Titel   Autor   Kurzbeschreibung   
Bottom-Feeding for Blockbuster BusinessDavid Rosenblum / Doug Tomlinson / Larry ScottThere is a widely held belief and indeed, it is something of a truism, that you cannot make money from unprofitable, “bad” customers. The authors present research that shows that, with some changes in thinking, the reverse can be true.
Finding Your Innovation Sweet SpotJacob Goldenberg / Roni Horowitz / Amnon Levav / David Mazursky From the HBR “Tool Kit” series, the authors describe a process consisting of five different innovation patterns or templates designed to help generate ideas that are both ingenious and viable.
For the Last Time: Stock Options Are an ExpenseZvi Bodie / Robert S. Kaplan / Robert C. Merton The rule governing the reporting of stock options in the US dates back to 1972, and states that options should not be recorded as an expense on the company`s books. The authors argue convincingly that this is an anomaly and no longer appropriate – and they do it in such a way that non-accountants can understand the article too.
Personalize Your Management DevelopmentNatalie Shope GriffinFrom the HBR “Best Practice” series, the author describes a company´s successful application of an individualized approach to management development, tailored to address the specific needs of four different types of manager, rather then the more common one-size-fits-all approach.
Predictable Surprises: The Disasters You Should Have Seen ComingMichael D. Watkins / Max H. BazermanThe authors describe some simple ways of being more systematic about spotting danger before it´s too late and for preparing properly for negative events, just in case the unthinkable does happen.
The Board`s Missing LinkCynthia A. Montgomery / Rhonda KaufmanThis article joins the wave of material concerned with improving corporate governance in the wake of recent prominent corporate financial scandals. But rather than simply lamenting the status quo, this article does make a couple of suggestions, albeit not all of them entirely new, on how to improve the situation, particularly from the shareholders´ perspective.
What Becomes an Icon Most?Douglas B. HoltUsing the example of “Mountain Dew”, a long-established and very successful fizzy drink in the US market, the author describes how the most potent brands, those that become icons, succeed by providing myths, or simple stories, that help people deal with tensions in their everyday lives.
Why Hierarchies ThriveHarold J. LeavittMost people, if asked, would tell you that they don´t particularly like hierarchies. They are old-fashioned and, in some cases, inhuman. But they can be found everywhere and they continue to thrive. The author describes some of the reasons why.
