This book is based on the author's research carried out over the last ten years in terms of emotional management. It establishes the intervention of emotions at all levels of management: the Littré definition, management being the art of the possible, «the art of guiding, managing, handling, motivating … even resolving and arranging». Emotion is a subject studied particularly in management in English speaking countries and has become a topic of growing interest in organizational behavior. E-motion is, in this book, considered based on its etymological origin (ex-movere: put into action by the external factors).

Die digitale Transformation wird in vielen Fällen nicht ausreichen, um die Herausforderungen der Zukunft zu bewältigen. Digital Rebirth ist mehr, es bedeutet eine Neukonzeption der Ziele, Leistungen, Kultur und Prozesse eines Unternehmens, inklusive der technologischen Plattform. Dieses Buch präsentiert praktische Rahmenbedingungen für den Digital Rebirth. Es richtet sich an etablierte große und mittlere Unternehmen, an deren Zulieferer und Dienstleister ebenso wie an jüngere Unternehmen und Startups. Und damit an Vorstände und Eigentümer, Führungskräfte, Unternehmensgründer und Consultants. – In jedem Kapitel beschreibt es bewährte Konzepte des Digital Rebirth, von der digitalen Neuausrichtung über digitale Plattformen und Ökosysteme bis zu Hinweisen, wie man von überkommenen Auffassungen zu neuartigen Denkweisen kommt und sich von unternehmerischem Ballast und alten Prozessen befreit. – Es zeigt deutlich, wie bekannte Unternehmen den Rebirth bereits gemeistert haben – oder gerade dabei sind, sich zu einem der Spielmacher der digitalen Wirtschaft zu entwickeln. – Darstellungen für Unternehmen und Branchen werden unterstützt durch Beschreibungen der Ansätze, Methoden und praktische Tools. – Der Inhalt des Buchs dient als Grundlage für Workshops, Management-Meetings sowie Führungskräfte-Brainstormings, wie sie von den Autoren bereits erfolgreich durchgeführt wurden. – Am Ende des Buchs wird der Ansatz des Digital Rebirth zu einem Set von fünf digitalen Treibern zusammengefasst, als Tools für eine zielgerichtete und erfolgreiche Unternehmensneuausrichtung. Das Konzept des Digital Rebirth zeigt deutlich, dass etablierte Business- und Wettbewerbsmodelle unter dem Aspekt des Internet der Dinge, künstlicher Intelligenz, Industrie 4.0 und cloudbasierten Diensten nicht mehr ausreichen, die digitale Welt abzubilden und zu verstehen.

The only language you need to know to change your results. Inside each of us is a vision of how things could be. Yet most people remain frustrated by a lack of impact, unable to connect and inspire the people they care about the most. Why? There’s a language we understand, but rarely use. A language that’s sincere. Powerful. Compelling. A language of words—and actions—that can’t be denied. Leadership Language will help you to peel back the ineffective “business speak”, so you can change the conversation. And change your results. Imagine what could happen when you replace frustration with an irresistible vision—for yourself, your team and your organization. Today’s leaders face so many challenges—employee retention, operational efficiency, culture, collaboration, leading across generations, and more—but communication is at the heart of every one of those issues. A clear message with a powerful delivery gets you halfway home. Honing in on your next conversation can drive more impact, better relationships, and greater overall effectiveness. For yourself. Your career. Your company. They say there’s nothing that can stop an idea whose time has come. So, take the lead. It’s time for you to create what’s missing. And Leadership Language will show you how. Get clear on your vision, get aligned with your story, and get others engaged with your message Connect with the people that matter most, in a way that invites innovation and new outcomes Find the courage to move forward, conquer change, and create powerful impact—while you help others do the same From student leaders to the C-suite, there is only one way for a leader to make an impact: communication. Leadership Language is your personal guide to mastering critical skills and unveiling your authentic potential.

Gain a deep, intuitive and technical understanding of practical options theory The main challenges in successful options trading are conceptual, not mathematical. Volatility: Practical Options Theory provides financial professionals, academics, students and others with an intuitive as well as technical understanding of both the basic and advanced ideas in options theory to a level that facilitates practical options trading. The approach taken in this book will prove particularly valuable to options traders and other practitioners tasked with making pricing and risk management decisions in an environment where time constraints mean that simplicity and intuition are of greater value than mathematical formalism. The most important areas of options theory, namely implied volatility, delta hedging, time value and the so-called options greeks are explored based on intuitive economic arguments alone before turning to formal models such as the seminal Black-Scholes-Merton model. The reader will understand how the model free approach and mathematical models are related to each other, their underlying theoretical assumptions and their implications to level that facilitates practical implementation. There are several excellent mathematical descriptions of options theory, but few focus on a translational approach to convert the theory into practice. This book emphasizes the translational aspect, while first building an intuitive, technical understanding that allows market makers, portfolio managers, investment managers, risk managers, and other traders to work more effectively within—and beyond—the bounds of everyday practice. Gain a deeper understanding of the assumptions underlying options theory Translate theoretical ideas into practice Develop a more accurate intuition for better time-constrained decision making This book allows its readers to gain more than a superficial understanding of the mechanisms at work in options markets. Volatility gives its readers the edge by providing a true bedrock foundation upon which practical knowledge becomes stronger.
