Book Description
The principles of value investing have resonated with savvy practitioners in the world of finance for a long time. In Creating Strategic Value, Joseph Calandro Jr. explores how the core ideas and methods of value investing can be profitably applied to corporate strategy and management. Calandro builds from an analysis of traditional value investing concepts to their strategic applications. He surveys value investing’s past, present, and future, drawing on influential texts, from Graham and Dodd’s time-tested works to more recent studies, to reveal potent managerial lessons. He explains the theoretical aspects of value investing-consistent approaches to corporate strategy and management and details how they can be successfully employed through practical case studies that demonstrate value realization in action. Calandro analyzes the applicability of key ideas such as the margin-of-safety principle to corporate strategy in a wide range of areas beyond stocks and bonds.

Offering expert insight into the use of time-tested value investing principles in new fields, Creating Strategic Value is an important book for corporate strategy and management practitioners at all levels as well as for students and researchers.

Book Description
A seminal figure in the field of public management, Mark H. Moore presents his summation of fifteen years of research, observation, and teaching about what public sector executives should do to improve the performance of public enterprises. Useful for both practicing public executives and those who teach them, this book explicates some of the richest of several hundred cases used at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government and illuminates their broader lessons for government managers. Moore addresses four questions that have long bedeviled public administration: What should citizens and their representatives expect and demand from public executives? What sources can public managers consult to learn what is valuable for them to produce? How should public managers cope with inconsistent and fickle political mandates? How can public managers find room to innovate? Moore’s answers respond to the well-understood difficulties of managing public enterprises in modern society by recommending specific, concrete changes in the practices of individual public managers: how they envision what is valuable to produce, how they engage their political overseers, and how they deliver services and fulfill obligations to clients. Following Moore’s cases, we witness dilemmas faced by a cross-section of public managers: William Ruckelshaus and the Environmental Protection Agency; Jerome Miller and the Department of Youth Services; Miles Mahoney and the Park Plaza Redevelopment Project; David Sencer and the swine flu scare; Lee Brown and the Houston Police Department; Harry Spence and the Boston Housing Authority. Their work, together with Moore’s analysis, reveals how public managers can achieve their true goal of producing public value.

Innovative strategic management solutions for today's market Strategic Value Management addresses common problems among business managers and other professionals involved in thinking about developing and managing organizations. In it, author Juan Pablo Stegmann integrates all strategic management and business strategy into an innovative standard that introduces key metrics to strategic management and stock value creation. He argues that most complex business issues can be reduced to the three dimensions of stock value creation-profits, sales growth, and capital-that are linked to three critical strategic management decisions-competition, innovation, and resources. His new approach indicates that every strategy has a clear dollar metric, which can measure its consequences of the strategies in terms of stock value. Competitive and growth strategies are analyzed along with economic, financial, dynamic, and contingent approaches Includes a companion CD-ROM, which contains Stegmann's proven model for strategic management and stock value creation Ethical consequences of strategic decisions are introduced-showing how ethics are linked to long-term stock value creation Explains the roots of the current financial crisis by examining the link between the financial world and strategic management, and proposes possible solutions For any looking to enhance their understanding of this discipline, Strategic Value Management offers a new conceptual model for thinking about business strategy and its link to stock value creation.

Book Description
The issue of value-based management is present in many areas of business and management. Value as an economic category determines strategic choices, the investment attractiveness of business models, competitive advantage, and the effectiveness and efficiency of the organization. Value is a key factor that determines the occurrence of business transactions. It is subject to valuation in terms of company purchases and sales, mergers or restructuring. It determines the rationality of designing business models. A value proposition is a factor that determines whether a company with a particular business model will succeed or not. Value is also important in non-profit organizations and building smart cities. It is everywhere. The exchange of value is the basis for an economic and social approach to the modern economy. The dynamic perspective of value-based management is particularly evident in the emergence of new concepts related to the Digital Economy. New trends in value migration, value capture, and value retention are the features of a network economy, where the exchange of value has not only an economic aspect, but a social aspect above all. Difficulties in valuing companies in the digital economy are unambiguous. Intangible values are currently a decisive factor in shaping the approach to building new and innovative business models. The reason for deciding to produce a book entitled Strategic Value Management and the Dynamic Perspective was due to the great interest in scientific research concerning this area. Substantial needs in the field of discovering the determinants responsible for effective value-based management also result from the needs of business practice. Therefore, the monograph issued to the readers is highly interdisciplinary. It presents the findings of scientific research and the analyses of authors from many research centers. The authors of individual chapters, indicating modern trends and directions of the development of value-based management, prove how broad the concept is and how important it is in terms of contemporary management. This book is intended for management theoreticians and business practitioners interested in effective value-based management in a dynamically changing environment. It can also be an inspiration for business consultants in terms of the implementation of the modern concepts of value-based management in modern companies.
