Prima carte din Rom?nia despre p?strarea clien?ilor Aceasta nu este o biblie ?n domeniu, dar este un must read pentru oricine vrea s? p?streze un client. ?Cred ?n Customer Retention. Cred ?n Lovemarks. Cred ?n Customer Experience ca form? evoluat? a loialit??ii. Cred ?n cei mai buni. Cred ?n exper?i, ?n cei care nu se vor mul?umi cu a fi exper?i din titulatur?, ci din convingeri ?i idei proprii.” Acesta este manifestul cu care ??i ?ncepe Mihai Dragnea pledoaria pentru autenticitate, responsabilitate ?i creativitate ?n rela?ia cu clien?ii. ?n goana dup? market share ?i profit se investesc foarte multe resurse ?n atragerea clien?ilor noi, iar rela?ia cu clien?ii existen?i este adeseori neglijat?. Foarte important: Customer Retention nu se refer? la loializarea clien?ilor, ci la p?strarea celor care inten?ioneaz? s? renun?e. Customer Loyalty este pentru cei pe care vrei s? ?i r?spl?te?ti c? ??i sunt clien?i. Este vorba despre dou? segmente diferite c?rora trebuie s? le corespund? abord?ri de business distincte. Clien?ii ??i exprim? opiniile oriunde, online mai ales, ?i au o mare putere de decizie, inclusiv pe aceea de a schimba valorile ?i credin?ele unei companii. A-i trata nediferen?iat pe cei care vor s? renun?e la produsele ?i serviciile tale ?i pe cei care ??i sunt fideli este ca ?i cum ai trage cu tunul la un concurs de tir cu arcul. ?A? recomanda aceast? carte ca lectur? obligatorie pentru toate persoanele dintr-o companie, de la front office p?n? la management. ?n orice moment ?i la orice palier ierarhic, pot fi luate decizii care s? ajute compania s? ??i p?streze clien?ii mul?umi?i ?i aceast? mul?umire s? fie tradus? ?n fidelitate. Mihai ne arat? exact cum trebuie tratat? problema reten?iei ?i reu?e?te s? explice importan?a unor decizii potrivite luate ?n deplin? cuno?tin?? de cauz?, at?t business, c?t ?i customer oriented.” - Andrei Cismaru, Social Media Manager at Bitdefender ?Mihai este un artist des?v?r?it.

Cu un stil diplomatic ?i pe alocuri umoristic, Mihai ne vorbe?te despre provenien?a acestor instrumente ?i ne ajut? s? le diferen?iem prin simpla aprofundare a istoriei lor.

Mi leszek, ha nagy vagyok?Németh Márton ezt a kérdést tette fel magának huszonhét évesen, amikor már b?ven túl volt a pályakezdésen, elindult a karriere, és minden úgy alakult, ahogy a nagy k?nyvben meg van írva. Mégsem volt elégedett, valami hiányzott. Egyik napról a másikra d?bbent rá, hogy mennyire nem azon az úton halad, amin szeretne: olyan alkalmazott, aki kevésért dolgozik sokat, mások jólétét gyarapítja, nem a saját érdekeit tartja szem el?tt.Vajon egyedül ? a felel?s azért, hogy így alakult? Feln?tt egyáltalán? Tud még változtatni? Az ?szinte válaszokért – még ha fájnak is – lelke legmélyére kellett leásnia, hogy megtalálja igazi ?nmagát.A szerz? a saját életén keresztül mutatja be a mai magyar pályakezdés nehézségeit, buktatóit, valamint az alkalmazotti státuszból, a karrierlétra aljáról való felt?rést. A fiatalok sok információt hallhatnak arról, hogyan kéne egyr?l a kett?re jutni, azonban azt senki nem mondta el nekik, hogyan is lépjenek nulláról az egyre. Eddig.
Preparing for ISO Certification Audit – A Plain English Guide
Preparing for ISO Certification Audit – A Plain English Guide
Dejan Kosutic
¥81.67
“Before you decide if your company should go for the certification, you have to ask yourself one important question: Do you really need it?” This book is a complete guide that will not only help you decide on this crucial concern, but also lead you from the beginning of the certification project to the end. This book is not focused solely on one ISO standard – the certification process is the same for any standard, so the book is adapted in such a way that it is perfectly acceptable for ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, ISO 20000, ISO 22000, OHSAS 18001, ISO 13485, and IATF 16949. Kosutic wrote Preparing for ISO Certification Audit: A Plain English Guide primarily for beginners in this field, and for people with moderate knowledge about ISO certification. The book is structured in such a way that someone with no prior experience or knowledge about ISO standards can quickly understand how the whole certification process works, and what steps to take for its successful completion. This book is a straightforward guide for ensuring your company passes the certification audit, leading you through the following steps: The final check before going for the certification – this part of the book explains in detail all the necessary steps that need to be done before going for the certification. How to choose a certification body – here you will learn about the most important criteria for choosing the certification body. Among others, you should consider the reputation, specialization, and experience of a certification body. Steps in the company certification and how to prepare – in this part of the book you will learn more about the Stage 1 audit, Stage 2 audit, and surveillance visits – the three main steps in the certification process. Which questions the certification auditor may ask – this section of the book will give you insight into how the certification auditors usually perform the certification audit, explaining what documentation you should prepare, what evidence the auditor will try to find, and what kind of questions you can expect during the certification interview. How to talk to the auditors to benefit from the audit – “Don't forget that auditors are only people, and no matter how professional they are, they will always be glad if you treat them fairly, and will be negative if you treat them badly.” What the auditor can and cannot do – this section is also very important in order to prepare your company for the certification audit. You have to be aware that there are borders that a certification auditor shouldn’t cross. Written in plain English with easy-to-understand language, this is the only book you will ever need on the subject.?

Managing ISO Documentation – A Plain English Guide
Dejan Kosutic
¥81.67
In this book, Dejan Kosutic, author and experienced ISO consultant, is giving away his practical know-how on managing policies, procedures, plans, forms, reports, and other documented information. No matter if you are new or experienced in the field, this book gives you everything you will ever need to learn on how to handle ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 27001, ISO 22301, ISO 20000, ISO 22000, OHSAS 18001, ISO 13485, AS9100, and IATF 16949 documents. Many ISO practitioners are often disappointed with the quantity and complexity of the documentation. You can frequently hear: “We don’t need these documents – we’re doing just fine without them; this would only be overkill.” “This standard is all about documentation – we simply need to fill out all the documents, and we’ll automatically get the certificate.” “We need to write policies and procedures for each and every process, activity, and control in our company – the more documents, the clearer the rules will be, and it will be easier for us to comply.” This book is here to prove these statements wrong. As Kosutic says: “The main point of the implementation of any standard is that the employees perform their activities and processes in a better way, and the documentation is here to help you do that, because otherwise, their processes and activities would become unmanageable.” Managing ISO Documentation: A Plain English Guide is a step-by-step guide that will explain the sequence of writing the documentation and its relationship with the PDCA cycle, how to decide on your documentation strategy, how to decide which policies and procedures to write, and what might be the most crucial part – how to write documentation that will be accepted by your employees. Written in easy-to-understand language, whether you’re an experienced practitioner or new to the field, Managing ISO Documentation: A Plain English Guide is the only book you’ll ever need on the subject.

Jim Bird

Yes - There Is Work-Life Balance! … but it’s probably not what you think. Too many academics and HR departments have defined work-life balance in superficial ways that make it unattainable, undesirable, or both. Common sense dictates that if something you desire is ill-defined or “impossible,” your outcomes will be disappointing and potentially even harmful. ?But sadly, common sense hasn’t been common practice. Redefining Work-Life Balance?is about creating life-altering, positive results. These pages convey a way to deliver powerful results using simple, one-minute tools proven to enhance life balance and enjoyment. The outcome is reduced stress, increased achievement, and more joy every day – for the rest of your life! Discover and enjoy easy-to-learn concepts with practical applications to: Understand what work-life balance really means Avoid the “As soon as…” trap Establish a ‘Way of Living’ Goal - ?A powerful tool for crafting how you live every day Accomplish your work-life priorities faster… and with less stress Find a more rewarding and happier balance in all your relationships ? Master the emotion-decision link with your personal emotional management tool The tools and tactics in Redefining Work-Life Balance were refined while building a light manufacturing business from a small startup to generating over $100,000,000 in sales with a great team of 250+! That success and the success of thousands of clients is made possible by adapting and applying these tools, and respecting that in addition to having a job, each one of us has a life. Create more achievement at work and more enjoyment in life with Redefining Work-Life Balance! Part One of this book begins by dispelling the myth that there is no such thing as work-life balance. Instead, it delivers a proven re-definition that is clear, fulfilling, and attainable, along with a tool set that will enhance the value and positive balance you get from life – today and every day. Part Two is about people and relationships. You will learn two powerful one-minute tools that can be applied to your life immediately. The outcome is having a more rewarding, less stressed, and happier balance with the important individuals in your personal and work life. In each chapter, you will also see examples from people who have generously shared their personal stories and experiences in implementing these tools. Part Three is about achieving the things you want in life. It delivers two tools that supercharge your thinking. You will get more good thinking done with each of these tools in minutes than most people get done in days, weeks, or even a lifetime of typical pondering. You will also discover two balance measurement tools: one gauges your emotional status and reactions, the other illuminates your current emphasis in life and enables you to adjust it easily if it is not where you want it to be. Part Four concludes these pages using your definition of a good work-life balance to clarify your Way of Life goals. These goals are not specific markers to surpass or milestones to accomplish, they are instead way of living goals. What are the most meaningful and important outcomes you want from your life every day? You will be surprised how quickly these meaningful and often life-changing goals become clear with this final tool in the book. My promise to you is that by applying these proven tools, you will create immediate positive outcomes, personally and professionally. More importantly, based on the feedback I have received across demographics, countries, and cultures, I expect that you too will retain and use your favorite tools along with your re-definition of work-life balance to be happier, less stressed, and more fulfilled over your lifetime. Let’s turn the page and redefine work-life balance in a way that works for you!

Ariely, Dan

How do we think about moneyWhat caused bankers to lose sight of the economyWhat caused individuals to take on mortgages that were not within their meansWhat irrational forces guided our decisionsAnd how can we recover from an economic crisisIn this revised and expanded edition of the New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller Predictably Irrational , Duke University's behavioral economist Dan Ariely explores the hidden forces that shape our decisions, including some of the causes responsible for the current economic crisis. Bringing a much-needed dose of sophisticated psychological study to the realm of public policy, Ariely offers his own insights into the irrationalities of everyday life, the decisions that led us to the financial meltdown of 2008, and the general ways we get ourselves into trouble. Blending common experiences and clever experiments with groundbreaking analysis, Ariely demonstrates how expectations, emotions, social norms, and other invisible, seemingly illogical forces skew our reasoning abilities. As he explains, our reliance on standard economic theory to design personal, national, and global policies may, in fact, be dangerous. The mistakes that we make as individuals and institutions are not random, and they can aggregate in the market with devastating results. In light of our current economic crisis, the consequences of these systematic and predictable mistakes have never been clearer. Packed with new studies and thought-provoking responses to readers' questions and comments, this revised and expanded edition of Predictably Irrational will change the way we interact with the world from the small decisions we make in our own lives to the individual and collective choices that shape our economy.

But Steven D. Levitt is not a typical economist. He studies the riddles of everyday life from cheating and crime to parenting and sports and reaches conclusions that turn conventional wisdom on its head. Freakonomics is a groundbreaking collaboration between Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, an award-winning author and journalist. They set out to explore the inner workings of a crack gang, the truth about real estate agents, the secrets of the Ku Klux Klan, and much more. Through forceful storytelling and wry insight, they show that economics is, at root, the study of incentives how people get what they want or need, especially when other people want or need the same thing.
