Review Business Network Learning (International Business and Management) (International Business and Management) / Pergamon:Emerging global markets and rapid technological development make strong demands on the ability of companies to develop and utilize knowledge. In order to handle the knowledge management problem firms have to search for new collaborative ways of organizing internationalization and technical development. This is reflected in a growing interest among both businessmen and academics in business networks. Business networks have been defined as networks of connected business relationships between firms, where a business relationship is a lasting relation between two firms doing business with one another. Business network relationships are particularly interesting since they allow the companies to interact more closely with each other and thereby handle critical problems in a way that is beneficial in the long run for the parties involved. It has been demonstrated that business networks are closely related to company learning. First, learning is an important element in business network development. Second, learning is an effect of interaction in business networks relationships. Third, learning can be a part of interaction in relationships. Against this background the objective of this volume is to discuss learning in business network settings.

Review The WetFeet Insider Guide to Careers in Asset Management and Retail Brokerage / Wetfeet:If money makes the world go ’round, the Earth would grind to a screeching halt without the asset management industry. Asset management is the business of making money with money—or at least trying to. Asset managers manage large pools of investments, which conform to specific sets of guidelines in order to achieve certain financial objectives. The investments could be held in a mutual fund or hedge fund, or might be in a portfolio managed by an investment counseling firm, a bank trust department, or an insurance company. Anyone considering a career in asset management should be keenly aware that markets not only go up, but also go down—sometimes way down. The "retail" brokerage industry, which deals with individuals (as opposed to "institutional" which deals with companies and other large clients), is weaning itself from its traditional reliance on trade-based commissions by offering more and more fee-based services, which provide a more regular revenue stream in a volatile market. The fee structure also helps insulate firms from appearances of conflicts of interest as the fee is usually a percentage of assets under management, which means that it’s in everyone’s interest to see those assets grow. Find out more about the wonderful world of asset management and retail brokerage by reading this guide! Learn about: Who the major players are and how they're doing What the typical jobs entail and what you need to know to snag one What the lifestyle is like, and what kind of money is involved What the pros and cons of getting into this industry are What questions to ask during your interviews More!.
