The McKinsey Mind
在线阅读本书 McKinsey is the 800-pound gorilla on the consulting block. In the best-selling The McKinsey Way>/I>, Ethan Raisel provided a through-the-keyhole perspective on the way this worldwide consulting institution approaches--and solves--the myriad professional problems encountered by its high-powered clientele. His goal in that book was simple: to communicate "new and useful skills to everyone who wants to be more useful in their business." The McKinsey Way used recollections and anecdotes of problem-solving techniques of the world's most successful consulting firm. The McKinsey Mind uses the same combination of insider knowledge and lucid prose to go a step farther: where The McKinsey Way showed readers what to do, The McKinsey Mind will show readers how to do it. The outline of the book will follow the same format as The McKinsey Way . It uses the same "lesson headings" as the original ("Don't Reinvent the Wheel," "Feel Free to be MECE"), but with a different focus. And that is where the similarity ends. The headings will be reorganized into a structure that focuses on implementation and expands upon lessons of The McKinsey Way with examples, parables, and exercises. The book can be used together with The McKinsey Way , or as a stand-alone, ensuring that both fans of The McKinsey Way and new readers will take-away important skills from the book. -
Investments
Bodie, Kane, and Marcus' "Investments" sets the standard for graduate/MBA investments textbooks. It blends practical and theoretical coverage, while maintaining an appropriate rigor and a clear writing style. Its unifying theme is that security markets are nearly efficient, meaning that most securities are priced appropriately given their risk and return attributes. The text places greater emphasis on asset allocation and offers a much broader and deeper treatment of futures, options, and other derivative security markets than most investment texts. It is also the only graduate "Investments" text to offer an online homework management system, 'McGraw-Hill's Connect Finance'. -

Then We Came to the End
“在菲利斯尖刻、有趣的处女作中,辞退通知满天飞,背景是网络泡沫破灭时芝加哥一家广告公司的办公室。”小说以公司职员的第一人称复数“我们”来讲述故事,充分地传达出集体的急躁、唠叨、小气和热心。“我们脾气不好,薪水过高。世界上充斥着互联网资金,我们只是拿到我们应得的一份。我们认为标识设计跟产品性能和分销体系一样重要。酷毙了说的是我们的设计,小儿科说的是别的公司的设计——如果他们真的设计得很好,我们就会向它鞠躬,就像玛雅人向他们的神灵鞠躬一样。”菲利斯的同事们会用微小的、荒谬的反叛来寻开心。比如一位嘴巴闲不住的家伙,决定一天内说话时全引用《教父》里的台词。当一位助理问他对一个项目的意见时,他回答说:“只此一次,这次我让你问我的公事。” -
