Sharon wrote the original version of these ...

Winning Across Global Markets examines how 145-year-old Nokia grew from a paper mill in Finland to a multinational telecommunications leader. Why are Nokia's lessons critical for other companies and industries? While multinationals based in large countries benefit from inherent advantages - such as a home base that often accounts for 30 to 50 percent of their revenues - multinationals based in smaller countries such as Nokia, enjoy no such competitive edge. Nokia, in fact, generates less than 1% of its revenues in its home base.

The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire. Just as a single sick person can start an epidemic of the flu, so too can a small but precisely targeted push cause a fashion trend, the popularity of a new product, or a drop in the crime rate. This widely acclaimed best seller, in which Malcolm Gladwell explores and brilliantly illuminates the tipping point phenomenon, is already changing the way people throughout the world think about selling products and disseminating ideas.

For thousands of years, humanity was ruled by Kings and Queens through bloodlines and rituals. Later governments and social insurgents brought forth unity for democracy and revolutions. Today, humanity distrusts the political forces which govern, and royalty is a dying breed.

Frustrated by endless indecisive meetings, lack of alignment, mistrust, blame games, turf wars, toxic colleagues and/or weak performance? All of these are a result of bad communication. And effective communication can solve them. Dr. Zweifel, former CEO, Columbia leadership professor, and award-winning author, has trained and coached over 5,000 executives to communicate effectively.

Contending with the 24/7 news cycle and an endless barrage of choices and information has stymied leadership and decision-making strategies. The broad-based reaction to this chaotic, unmanageable assault has been to retrench, and to focus on immediate, controllable decisions. In the process, we lose sight of the horizon. More dangerous still, is the shift we've seen from value creation to wealth creation, in a transaction-based society in which the "deal" is more important than the value it drives or the relationships it is based on.
