    Colleagues:

     

    I edit the Strategic Management series for Business Expert Press (BEP, and the Corporate Governance series, along with Kenneth Merchant at USC), and am always looking for new book proposals.  With summer just around the corner I wanted to know if a book project had creeped into your summer wish-list.  While most of our books are stylized based on an author's particular area of expertise, I am also on the lookout for book proposals from faculty capable and interested in authoring short books on strategy "essentials," such as technology strategy, corporate strategy, and organization design. 

     

    Our books offer concise distillations of leading edge business practices in a form accessed by executives and used in executive education programs around the globe.  Recent releases include "Fundamentals of Global Strategy" (Cornelis de Kluyver), "Sustainable Business" (Nancy Landrum and Sandra Edwards), "Knowledge Management" (Arnold Kransdorff), "Building Strategy and Performance through Time" (Kim Warren), "A Leader's Guide to Knowledge Management" (John & JoAnn Girard), "Mergers and Acquisitions: Turmoil in Top Management Teams" (Jeffrey Krug), and "Achieving Excellence in Management" (Andrew Kilner).  Forthcoming titles include "Positive Management" (Jack Walters), "Building Organizational Capacity for Change" (William Q. Judge), "Operational Leadership" (Andrew Spanyi), "Grow by Focusing on What Matters: Strategy in 3-Circles" (Joel E. Urbany & James H. Davis), "A Stakeholder's Approach to Issues Management" (Robert Boutiller), and "Implementing the Change Process: A Self-Paced Workbook for Newly Appointed CEOs" (Bernard Liebowitz). 

     

    Take a look at BEP and our strategy and governance collections online (www.businessexpertpress.com)  or contact me or our editor David Parker directly if you have an interest in joining our author team. 

     

    Warm regards,  Mason

    Dear Mason,

    I am responding to the email below that I received from my School. My area of research and expertise is "Dealing with Corruption and Bribery" and I could write a Hand book dealing with this aspect of doing business and the strategies that could be used to cope with it.

    However, I am committed for time till Nov 2010 and will be able to take up the project and do justice to it only after Nov 2010.

    Please let me know if this is of any interest.

    Thanks and best regards
    Achinto

    Colleagues:

    I edit the Strategic Management series for Business Expert Press (BEP, and the Corporate Governance series, along with Kenneth Merchant at USC), and am always looking for new book proposals. With summer just around the corner I wanted to know if a book project had creeped into your summer wish-list. While most of our books are stylized based on an author’s particular area of expertise, I am also on the lookout for book proposals from faculty capable and interested in authoring short books on strategy “essentials,” such as technology strategy, corporate strategy, and organization design.

    Our books offer concise distillations of leading edge business practices in a form accessed by executives and used in executive education programs around the globe. Recent releases include “Fundamentals of Global Strategy” (Cornelis de Kluyver), “Sustainable Business” (Nancy Landrum and Sandra Edwards), “Knowledge Management” (Arnold Kransdorff), “Building Strategy and Performance through Time” (Kim Warren), “A Leader’s Guide to Knowledge Management” (John & JoAnn Girard), “Mergers and Acquisitions: Turmoil in Top Management Teams” (Jeffrey Krug), and “Achieving Excellence in Management” (Andrew Kilner). Forthcoming titles include “Positive Management” (Jack Walters), “Building Organizational Capacity for Change” (William Q.

    Colleagues:

     

    I edit the Strategic Management series for Business Expert Press (BEP) and the Corporate Governance series, along with Kenneth Merchant at USC, and am always looking for new book proposals.  With summer now behind us I wanted to know if a book project had crept into your Fall wish-list.  While most of our books are stylized based on an author's particular area of expertise and research, I am also on the lookout for book proposals from faculty capable and interested in authoring short books on strategy "essentials," such as technology strategy, corporate strategy, and organization design. 

     

    Our books offer concise distillations of leading edge business practices in a form accessed by executives and used in executive education programs around the globe.  A subset of these are published in partnership with Harvard Business Press (books that have a more "primer" feel for a typical MBA course have the best shot at getting into that set).  Recent releases include "Blind Spots, Biases, and Other Pathologies in the Boardroom" (Ken Merchant & Katharina Pick), "Fundamentals of Global Strategy" (Cornelis de Kluyver), "Sustainable Business" (Nancy Landrum and Sandra Edwards), "Knowledge Management" (Arnold Kransdorff), "Building Strategy and Performance through Time" (Kim Warren), "A Leader's Guide to Knowledge Management" (John & JoAnn Girard), "Mergers and Acquisitions: Turmoil in Top Management Teams" (Jeffrey Krug), "Achieving Excellence in Management" (Andrew Kilner), "Operational Leadership" (Andrew Spanyi), "Implementing the Change Process: A Self-Paced Workbook for Newly Appointed CEOs" (Bernard Liebowitz), and "Positive Management" (Jack Walters).   

     

    Forthcoming titles include "Building Organizational Capacity for Change" (William Q. Judge), "Dynamic Strategies for Small Business" (Steve Seteroff & Lydia Campuzano), "Strategic Analysis: A Structured Approach" (Al Warner), "Grow by Focusing on What Matters: Strategy in 3-Circles" (Joel E. Urbany & James H. Davis), and "A Stakeholder's Approach to Issues Management" (Robert Boutiller). 

     

    Take a look at BEP and our strategy and governance collections online (www.businessexpertpress.com)  or contact me or our editor David Parker directly if you have an interest in joining our growing author team.
