An in-depth look at strategies and techniques of five of the country's best money managers

In Five Key Lessons from Top Money Managers, Scott Kays taps into the investment knowledge of five of the nation's foremost money managers-Bill Nygren, Andy Stephens, Christopher Davis, Bill Fries, and John Calamos. Through extensive interviews with these investment experts, Kays found five principles that are common to all of them. This book discusses each of these five principles in detail-and gives readers specific tools to implement what they've learned by developing a step-by-step process that incorporates all five principles. Kays even teaches readers how to screen for companies that meet the criteria for quality businesses and then analyze three of the qualifying firms to determine if they sell above or below their fair market value.

Leadership for Sustainable Futures: Achieving Success in a Competitive World
By Gayle C. Avery


Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
Number Of Pages: 263
Publication Date: 2005-06-05
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1845421736
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781845421731
Binding: Hardcover


Product Description:

Many managers in the English-speaking world are seeking an alternative to the prevailing business model which promotes a short-term, shareholder-value approach. In this accessible and highly topical book, Gayle Avery argues that this Anglo/US approach to capitalism and business is seriously flawed and does not bring the quality of life to individuals and societies that many people seek. But what is the alternative and do business leaders have a different choice? This book demonstrates alternative ways of leading sustainable organizations. It identifies 19 criteria for sustainable leadership practices that can be found in globally successful enterprises such as Allianz, BMW, Munich Reinsurance, Nokia, Novartis, and Porsche. Sustainable principles include promoting ethical behavior, long-term thinking and innovation, and valuing employees and other stakeholders such as the community, the environment and future generations. The author presents concrete examples of leadership from 28 interesting case studies to illustrate the many different ways in which sustainable leadership principles can be implemented. The book concludes that shifting to sustainable leadership practices may appear difficult for enterprises based in the USA, UK and Australia, but is essential for the long-term survival of these firms. Indeed, several well-known businesses from these countries have already adopted sustainable leadership principles, including Colgate-! Palmolive, Continental Airlines, HSBC, IBM, Marriott, Nordstrom and SAS. By highlighting a dramatically different approach to leadership which can prove financially, socially and environmentally successful, this book will have a great appeal to scholars and students with an interest in leadership, strategy, international management and organizational studies. It will also be a valuable and practical aid for managers and consultants looking for new directions and ways of running their businesses.

Product Description:

Real estate development is one of the great opportunities for building substantial wealth.

Developer, broker, landlord, investor, and teacher Mark B. Weiss, CCIM, offers proven strategies using his step-by-step process to achieve success, which is outlined in Secrets of a Millionaire Real Estate Developer.

If real estate development calls to mind images of Donald Trump, gleaming office towers, or imposing industrial facilities, real estate investors must realize that's only part of the picture. Opportunities to develop real estate begin on a local scale, from single-family home renovations to small apartment buildings to small commercial or retail projects, before moving to larger, more complex properties.

Secrets of a Millionaire Real Estate Developer outlines what to do and how to do it at each stage of a development project, including making decisions as the team leader and understanding the numbers. This book unravels the complexities, such as dealing with bureaucracy, financing, negotiation, taxation and zoning. This is a practical guide which clarifies the process for those new to the business, while providing advanced strategies, reference sources, and motivations for those with some experience.

Weiss shares his detailed technical knowledge to help readers:

* Determine if this is the right opportunity.

* Build diverse teams of reliable experts to get any job accomplished.

* Renovate for fast re-sale, or for long-term profit.

* Read and write a contract.

* Work with state, local, and federal governments.

Those considering a career change, landlords and investors looking to ratchet up results, real estate professionals ready to add a profit center, part-timers, and even established developers will find authoritative, real-world insights (including the author's ""Success Secrets"" not available anywhere else) to become a master real estate developer.

Product Description:

With lease options and subject-to deals, investors can control properties worth much more than what they could normally afford to purchase. The potential for profit is great and the costs of getting started are low.

This book shows novice investors how author Wendy Patton and thousands of other Americans--including well-known real estate developers and business moguls--use lease options and subject-to deals to control valuable property without necessarily owning it. The cost of purchasing an option or subject-to deal is a fraction of what it costs to buy a home. That's why these kinds of deals are typically found in every serious investor's portfolio. Sharing the secrets and strategies investors use to profit from low- and no-money-down deals, Patton gives investors all the information they need to succeed.

"Finally, a book that explains lease option and subject-to deals in depth and detail. This book is essential for anyone who wants to make money in real estate without using a lot of cash or taking on a lot of risk. A gold mine of great information."
--Robert Shemin, New York Times bestselling author of Secrets of Buying and Selling Real Estate?Without Using Your Own Money!

"Few can rival Wendy's knowledge and experience with lease option and subject-to deals. This is a must-read for beginning and advanced investors and the real estate agents who serve them."
--Gary Keller, New York Times bestselling author of The Millionaire Real Estate Investor

"The techniques Patton teaches here are invaluable--especially for working with Realtors and still getting properties for little- or no-money-down. The detail in this book will make you want to read every page."
--Albert Lowry, PhD, New York Times bestselling author of How You Can Become Financially Independent by Investing in Real Estate

Product Description:

"Zero-based budgeting," "Theory Z," "employee participation," "quality circles"-management fads come and go as fast as new car models or trendy clothes. But as leading organizational psychologist Aubrey C. Daniels explains in this eye-opening guide, the key to managing effectively has always remained the same: "Create positive consequences for workers when they exhibit actions and behaviors you wish to increase, and undesirable consequences for the behaviors you wish to decrease." That's what Bringing Out the Best in People can help every manager do. Revealing the scientifically proven staying power of positive reinforcement, Dr. Daniels shows executives at every level how to use his tested performance management system to: define reinforcers that work-and tailor them to meet individual employees' needs; set fair performance measurement standards-and implement and maintain them with minimal cost and effort; provide constant feedback and reinforcement-so employees always know exactly how to improve performance... and when they've achieved it.

Mission and Money: Understanding the University
By Burton A. Weisbrod, Jeffrey P. Ballou, Evelyn D. Asch


Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Number Of Pages: 360
Publication Date: 2008-09-08
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0521515106
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780521515108
Binding: Hardcover


Product Description:

Mission and Money goes beyond the common focus on elite universities and examines the entire higher education industry, including the rapidly growing for-profit schools. The sector includes research universities, four-year colleges, two-year schools, and non-degree-granting career academies. Many institutions pursue mission-related activities that are often unprofitable and engage in profitable revenue raising activities to finance them. This book contains a good deal of original research on schools' revenue sources from tuition, donations, research, patents, endowments, and other activities. It considers lobbying, distance education, and the world market, as well as advertising, branding, and reputation. The pursuit of revenue, while essential to achieve the mission of higher learning, is sometimes in conflict with that mission itself. The tension between mission and money is also highlighted in the chapter on the profitability of intercollegiate athletics. The concluding chapter investigates implications of the analysis for public policy.
