9780008105488 THE SINGLES GAME By LAUREN WEISBERGER Paperback
: Available soon
review It’s the Digital Age and we are in an increasingly digitized world with technology permeating every nook and cranny of our lives. As a result, not much remains the same for too long and for businesses, old and new, this calls for a constant vigil, proactivity and readiness to respond, react and change to stay afloat and prevail. Whether your business has been open for many years now, yours is a new startup or even if you are considering going into business for yourself, you can no longer rely on traditional business strategies. That’s why in this issue of Share, I’ve got a few “bibles” to help you.
business insights
Because you’re in business to make money, you’re going have to stay on top of how to collect your money. You’ll want to know that financial technology, commonly referred to as FinTech, is revolutionizing the way consumers spend their money and the way business transactions transpire. That’s why I thought you’d find The FinTech Book by Susanne Chishti and Janos Barbers very helpful. This is a handbook - perfect for investors, entrepreneurs, consultants, bankers, visionaries and more - that will bring you up to speed on everything in and affected by the financial technology revolution. Not only will it help you grasp the market dynamics of the FinTech revolution,
all about strategy & innovation

Another inescapable aspect of business nowadays is digital marketing. With the likelihood of digital media replacing more and more traditional marketing forms, plus the importance of social media conversion to produce long-lasting business results and many other offshoots and impacts of digitization, you need to include in your game plan a fast, practical, and streamlined approach to digital marketing. I, therefore, am proud to present to you Simon Kingsnorth’s Digital Marketing Strategy: An Integrated Approach to Online Marketing. Allow me to elaborate on what you have to gain with this book on hand. You’ll benefit from an in-depth analysis of essential digital marketing platforms and techniques such as social media, user experience, display advertising, customer relationship management (CRM), content marketing, personalization, and also search engine optimization (SEO). Author Simon Kingsnorth also touches on implementation of your strategy from the planning phase to integration that supports your company’s aims. And what I like about this book is that the author achieves his goal of giving you insightful and practical guidance in a pragmatic way using best practice case studies, checklists, summaries and illustrations, all the while enabling you to customize your own strategy for success. John F. Kennedy once said “Those who look only to the past or the present are certain to miss the future.” Steve Jobs said “Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.” I couldn’t agree more with both gentlemen, especially in the present-day business world with everyone racing to stay ahead. So you have to focus on the future and innovate but at the same time you have to manage your business now to ensure continued growth and success. I thus would like to draw your attention to a gem of a book, namely The Three Box Solution: A Strategy for Leading Innovation. Author Vijay Govindarajan reminds us that managers are challenged to create new business while at the same time optimize existing ones or risk losing them and their investment. He pushes us to address the even bigger challenge of doing both simultaneously. Govindarajan lays out for us a simple yet proven method for balancing organizational time, resources and energy to conquer our business innovative needs through what he refers to as “the three boxes”:

review
it’ll assist you in understanding the potential of the financial technology sector, which is experiencing explosive growth, as well as its impact on related industries.

9780749474706 Digital Marketing STRATEGY: An Integrated Approach to Online Marketing By SIMON KINGSNORTH
Box 1: The present - Manage the core business at peak profitability Box 2: The past - Abandon ideas, practices, and attitudes that could inhibit innovation Box 3: The future - Convert breakthrough ideas into new products and businesses The book not only has successful leading company examples like IBM and Tata Consultancy Services, but it also has testimonies from leaders who have actually used this three-box framework. So trust me when I tell you that you’ll find running your business and achieving innovation goals easier thanks to this three-box framework. The bottom line is nothing stays the same and innovation is needed to survive in the Digital Age. Businesses that don’t adapt are putting themselves at a higher risk of extinction sooner rather than later, but I think you’ll have it all covered when you check out these titles the next time you’re at Asia Books!

9780241188514 THE RISE AND FALL OF NATIONS: TEN RULES OF CHANGE IN THE POST-CRISIS WORLD BY RUCHIR SHARMA Hardback
The crisis of 2008 ended the illusion of a golden era in which many people imagined that prosperity and political calm would continue to spread indefinitely. In a world now racked by slowing growth and mounting unrest, how can we discern which nations will thrive and which will fail? In this book, Ruchir Sharma rethinks economics as a practical art by narrowing down the thousands of factors that can shape a country's future, it spells out ten clear rules for identifying the next big winners and losers in the global economy. Each rule looks at a nation's political, economic, and social conditions in real time to filter out the hype and noise.

Extraordinary bestselling author Siddhartha Mukherjee has written a deft, brilliant, and illuminating biography of the gene, telling us the story of one of modern times’s most important conceptual breakthroughs. Weaving science, social history, and personal narrative, Mukherjee animates the quest to understand human heredity and its surprising influence on our lives, personalities, identities, fates, and choices, describing the centuries of research and experimentation from Aristotle to the revolutionary twenty-first century innovators who mapped the human genome and reminding us all of the many questions that hang over our ability to translate genetics from the laboratory to the real world.
In The Memory Illusion, forensic psychologist and memory expert Dr Julia Shaw uses the latest research to show how astonishingly our brains can be led astray. She explains why we sometimes believe other people's memories to be our own, how police officers can imprison an innocent man on the basis of 300 denials and just one confession and how radically false memories can be deliberately implanted, making people believe they brutally murdered a loved one or were abducted by aliens. She also reveals how, in spite of all this, we can improve our memory through simple awareness of its fallibility.
