Beyond the Champion Institutionalizing Innovation Through People【電子書籍】[ Lois S. Peters ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Large, mature companies often struggle when it comes to the uncertain process of breakthrough innovation. But innovation is an imperative in today's cutthroat business environment. To fulfill its potential, there has to be a better wayーand there is.</p> <p><em>Beyond the Champion</em> argues that innovation is a talent all its own that requires distinct skills and expertise, just like finance or marketing. Viewing innovation as a discipline in its own right, it is easy to see that breakthrough wins require an organizational design with clearly delineated roles, responsibilities, and career tracks for those who shoulder the responsibility for new products. Drawing on the results of a four-year study and two decades of related research, this book outlines three fundamental competencies necessary for innovation: discovery, incubation, and acceleration. Mapping these skills onto roles and opportunities for advancement, the authors deliver a pioneering blueprint for sustainable innovation.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,805円

The Greatest U.S. Opens High Drama at Golf's Most Challenging Championship【電子書籍】[ David Barrett ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In The Greatest U.S. Opens, veteran golf journalist and author David Barrett brings readers inside the ropes at the most dramatic tournaments since the Open's inception in 1895. Renowned as the most challenging of the major championships, the U.S. Open has showcased the country's greatest golf courses, including Pebble Beach, Oakmont, Merion and Shinnecock Hills. And, with notoriously long "Open rough" and super-fast greens, the U.S Open is typically the toughest challenge of the year, providing a forum for the greats of the game to test their mettle and prove their stature by winning multiple times--including Bobby Jones, Ben Hogan, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods. The extreme difficulty of a U.S. Open course has also yielded the occasional and unlikely upset, including Francis Oiumet's 1913 thrilling victory over English greats Harry Vardon and Ted Ray or Jack Fleck stealing a shocking win from Hogan in 1955. Barrett also captures the tournament's many classic moments including Arnold Palmer's heroic charge in 1960, Tom Watson's chip-in to take down Nicklaus at Pebble Beach in 1982, and Payne Stewart's putt to clinch a victory at Pinehurst in 1999 just months before his tragic death.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,444円

The First Essay on the Political Rights of Women Championing Gender Equality: A Philosophical Case for Women's Political Rights【電子書籍】[ marquis de Jean-Antoine-Nicolas de Caritat Condorcet ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "The First Essay on the Political Rights of Women," the Marquis de Condorcet presents a pioneering exploration of gender equality and women's rights during the Enlightenment era. Employing a rational and eloquent literary style, Condorcet articulates a compelling argument for the inclusion of women in the political sphere, asserting that their exclusion is not based on any inherent incapacity, but rather on social constructs and prejudices. The essay serves as a testament to the Enlightenment's broader ideological commitment to liberty and equality, drawing on the principles of reason and universal rights that characterized the period. Condorcet, a prominent philosopher, mathematician, and politician of the French Revolution, dedicated his life to progressive ideas and reforms. His considerable engagement with the debates surrounding individual rights and social justice, coupled with his personal beliefs in rationality and equality, influenced his advocacy for women'??s rights. As a member of the revolutionary circles and a proponent of education for all, his insights derive from both theoretical foundations and lived experience in a time of revolutionary change. I highly recommend this essential text to scholars and readers who seek to understand the origins of feminist thought and the moral imperatives that shaped modern political discourse. Condorcet'??s articulate and impassioned arguments challenge contemporary readers to reflect on the ongoing struggle for equality, making this essay a vital contribution to both historical and philosophical studies.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Wilhelm Steinitz, the winner of the first official World Chess Championship in 1886, would have rubbed his eyes in disbelieve if he could have seen how popular chess is today.

English Secularism: A Confession of Belief Championing Rational Thought: Secularism in Victorian England【電子書籍】[ George Jacob Holyoake ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "English Secularism: A Confession of Belief," George Jacob Holyoake articulates a compelling framework for secular humanism amidst the swirling debates of 19th-century England. Holyoake's prose is both accessible and thought-provoking, employing essays and confessions that strive to clarify the role of non-religious belief in society. His exploration of secularism is not merely an affirmation of disbelief; rather, it is a carefully constructed argument advocating for ethical living, rational thought, and the pursuit of knowledge independent of religious dogma. Holyoake's writing is situated in a literary context that both reflects and influences the broader philosophical and social movements of his time, engaging with the likes of John Stuart Mill and Charles Darwin in an era ripe for questioning traditional authority. George Jacob Holyoake, a prominent British secularist, social reformer, and coiner of the term "secularism," emerges from a background steeped in activism and advocacy for social justice. His diverse experiences, ranging from journalism to political engagement, shaped his perspective on belief systems and informed his vision of a secular society. Holyoake's struggles against religious institutionalism and his commitment to rational inquiry resonate throughout the text, offering introspection derived from both personal conviction and socio-political context. "English Secularism" is highly recommended for readers seeking to understand the philosophical underpinnings of modern secular thought. Holyoake'??s articulation of a coherent vision for a moral society divorced from religious influence serves as a vital contribution to contemporary discussions on belief and ethics. His work remains a pivotal reference for scholars and lay readers alike, encouraging an exploration of how secularism can enrich personal and societal values.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 150円

Erasmus Against War Championing Peace: Erasmus's Call for Diplomacy and Human Dignity in Renaissance Critique of War【電子書籍】[ Desiderius Erasmus ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Erasmus Against War," Desiderius Erasmus presents a poignant critique of militarism and the moral implications of warfare, countering the prevalent jubilation surrounding conquest in Renaissance Europe. Employing a humanist literary style interwoven with satirical wit, Erasmus articulates his philosophical objections to war, emphasizing its devastating effects on human life and society. The text is situated within the broader context of the humanist movement, which sought to reconcile classical wisdom with contemporary moral inquiries, as Erasmus effectively utilizes dialogues, essays, and vivid imagery to convey the futility and destructiveness of conflict. Erasmus, a Dutch scholar and a pivotal figure in the Renaissance, was profoundly influenced by the socio-political climate of his time, marked by frequent wars and ambiguous religious conflicts. His commitment to peace and education reflects his experiences of growing up amidst societal turmoil and his deep-seated belief in the potential for human reason to prevail over ignorance and violence. As a critical voice in the Reformation, Erasmus'??s philosophical writings, including this work, seek to shape a more humane, thoughtful, and ethically grounded approach to interpersonal relations. I highly recommend "Erasmus Against War" to readers interested in Renaissance philosophy, pacifism, and the ethical dimensions of war. Erasmus's insights are timeless, challenging us to reflect on our own societal values and the consequences of conflict, making this work essential for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of peace advocacy and humanist thought.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円

Derby County: Champions of England 1971-72 & 1974-75【電子書籍】[ Edward Giles ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This gripping tale begins and ends with Brian Clough, by common consent the greatest manager Derby County ever had - and the most controversial. Centred on the Rams two League championship seasons of 1971-72 and 1974-75, it revives memories of one of the most momentous periods in the clubs long history - from 1967, when Clough and Taylor swept in from the North-East outpost of Hartlepool, to the 1983-84 season that ended with descent back to the old Third Division after Taylors ill-fated return from brief retirement. Triumph turned to turmoil as the outspoken Cloughs stormy departure provoked a players rebellion, and again when Dave Mackay, whose inspiring captaincy had been at the heart of the Rams meteroric rise from years of obscurity, was ousted from the managers chair so soon after claiming that second title and going close to a League and Cup double. Readers are taken on a roller-coaster ride from the heights of the First Division and European glory, coupled with memorable nights in domestic cup competitions, to the depths of a financial crisis that almost drove the club out of existence. As managers and chairmen were changed with bewildering rapidity, so the team of some of the games most glittering stars, assembled with the breaking of several transfer records, disintegrated in the nosedive of two relegations. And to cap it all came the signing that caused the irreparable break-up of the friendship between Brian Clough and Peter Taylor.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,000円

Inaugural address delivered to the University of St. Andrews, Feb. 1st 1867 Championing Education: A Timeless Discourse on Knowledge and Autonomy【電子書籍】[ John Stuart Mill ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In his Inaugural Address delivered to the University of St. Andrews on February 1, 1867, John Stuart Mill presents a profound reflection on the goals of higher education and the responsibilities of the intellectual community. Mill articulates the need for universities to cultivate not only knowledge but also critical thinking, character, and moral development within their students. His eloquent literary style blends philosophical rigor with accessible language, situated within the broader Victorian context of burgeoning intellectual and social reform. The address serves as a clarion call for the importance of education as a means to elevate society and address pressing social issues of the time. John Stuart Mill was an eminent philosopher and political economist whose works laid the foundations for modern liberal thought. Influenced by his father, James Mill, and the broader 19th-century debates on empiricism and utilitarianism, Mill experienced the transformative power of education early in life. His unique experiences, including his advocacy for women's rights and social justice, informed his ideals presented in this address, emphasizing the need for an educational system that fosters individual empowerment. Mill's Inaugural Address is a must-read for scholars, educators, and anyone interested in the intersections between philosophy, education, and society. It challenges contemporary readers to reconsider their views on the purpose of education and encourages an active engagement with the evolving moral and ethical dilemmas facing humanity. This text is a timeless reflection on the role of academia in shaping both the mind and spirit of individuals.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円
