Other Added - Never Wrestle with a PIG
With Competitors Take The High RoadWhat do you do when the competition cheats and/or hits below the belt? We recommend that you take the high road. Let them drown in the flood. Remember, he who laughs last! You must resist the temptation to retaliate by descending to their level. You should read the book by W. Michael Hoffman who is Executive Director of The Center For Business Ethics at Bentley College in Waltham, Massachusetts. He presented another good reason to do the right thing.
He followed it with "What They STILL Don't Teach You at Harvard Business School" and recorded both of them on audio cassette.
These are not sports books but essential, down to earth, common sense, get-a-grip business advice books. Reading them is great, but listening to them on audio cassette, read by Mark himself is an even bigger treat. McCormack
There are many uses for promotional items. This means that they are just not used as freebies for a grand opening special. Knowing all the uses for these nifty items, often called “swag,” will open up many opportunities for your place of business.Advertising SpecialtiesLook around you. You can probably count on two hands the number of items in your office or home that are etched, engraved or printed with someone’s name- magnets, key chains, coffee mugs, calendars, rulers and n
Mark McCormack is the founder of the International Management Group (IMG) and was the guy who became Arnold Palmer’s agent in 1959. At the time, although enormously successful and popular, Palmer had only one endorsement deal - with Heinz for $500 a year (and as much ketchup as he wanted).
Mark and Arnie’s simple handshake agreement changed the world of sports forever. Stick with me, this is NOT about sports.
It wasn’t long before McCormack had signed two other rising stars Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus. McCormack didn’t limit himself to golf. In 1968, he signed his first tennis player, Australia’s Rod Laver as well as representing athletes from football, rugby, cricket, motor racing and a host of other sports.
McCormack’s company, International Management Group or IMG, became the biggest name in corporate sport and moved beyond sports, managing former Presidents and Prime Ministers, Pope John Paul II and even represented the Nobel Peace Prize.
There is more to the sports business than knowing how to swing a golf club or how tight to string a tennis racket. Mark McCormack began sharing his common sense approach to business in 1984, when he wrote "What They Don't Teach You at Harvard Business School" a book that spent twenty-one weeks at the top of the New York Times bestseller list.

If you have read any of the articles I have written prior to this, you will know I’m a proponent of spreading yourself around in order to secure a teaching position in an international school. This is the approach that I have used successfully and I still believe it is an excellent strategy for kicking off your international teaching career. However, I thought I’d better write an article on strategies for educators who are looking for their second or third overseas teaching position. Those int

Are you sulking at the promotion that your colleague just got despite him being less intelligent than you are? Well, it is possible that he is emotionally stronger, versatile and dynamic. The reality is that people who are dynamic, the go-getters as they are fondly known (or known ad nauseam), are at a greater advantage.Emotional Intelligence And Your CareerIf you are unsure whether emotions play a role in your career, assume yourself being moved to a higher position where you ar

Those who graduate from college are among the thousands of people who are looking for work. This doesn’t yet include those who have quit the current jobs or have been laid off due to budget cuts so the competition is tough.Many applicants will look for work by sifting through the classified ads in the newspaper. Most companies use the Internet nowadays because it reaches a larger market. The firm can make a tie up with a job site or decide to put ads on the official website.The p

The overriding goal of ISO-14000. (History 1995)As ISO-9000 becomes a way of life for the global business community, ISO-14000 is almost ready to debut with its own set of standards for voluntary environmental compliance.Much has been heard recently about the antiregulation sentiment sweeping across the country. Lawmakers in Washington have responded with talk of "regulatory reform" and programs aimed at "re-inventing government."One of the targets of this regulatory backl

These are not sports books but essential, down to earth, common sense, get-a-grip business advice books. Reading them is great, but listening to them on audio cassette, read by Mark himself is an even bigger treat. McCormack is one of the most plain-speaking and credible business teachers we have, and he comes across especially well in this relaxed studio recording.
Though Mark’s principles are powerful, he's a humble teacher for someone at his level. His delivery is so understated you will discover the value of his ideas naturally rather than having to work around an overzealous sales pitch. Listening to Mark’s unassuming voice, with no airs, is like having an understanding business partner in the seat next to you as you drive down the road.
Mark died in May of 2003 but his words and ideas will help generations to come. You can find his stuff in almost any library and many libraries have the audio books, too. A quick look at Half.com will find most of his audios in like new condition for a fraction of the cost.
Many times you will be given a choice of Mark’s audio books, abridged or unabridged. For years I didn’t much care one way or another until I listened to Stephen King on CD telling me why I should only choose unabridged. Sure it takes longer, but you get the drift of the author’s thoughts entirely, not just some of them chosen by an unseen editor. Chose unabridged and go the extra mile is possible.
Here is a partial list of audio books and CD’s by Mark McCormack that I highly recommend
