Strategy decision making and action used to be off limits to all but the select few at the very top of an organization. It was a largely cerebral activity focused on grand long-terms plans made at annual off-site retreats away from the daily challenges of the business. That is no longer the case.
The current business environment does not wait for companies to slowly adjust in an annual meeting. The relentless pace of change renders today’s long-term future tomorrow’s history. Does this mean strategy is no longer useful, or even feasible? No. Good strategists are needed now more than ever. But today’s high-performing organizations think of strategy differently than in the past. These companies make strategy part of every manager’s role; they strategize continuously and tackle strategic problems through individuals from all parts of the organization.
Strategy in this fast-paced new world is about diagnosing the diverse array of complex challenges confronting organizations, deciding on novel solutions to address those challenges, and delivering by taking action on those solutions. Including a novel organizational framework and application examples, Strategy in 3D helps build these foundational skills and prepares the listener for success as a strategist in the twenty-first century.

Creative Tools and the Softwarization of Cultural Production


Free Download Creative Tools and the Softwarization of Cultural Production
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3031456920 | 391 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 15 MB
This book explores how creativity is increasingly designed, marketed, and produced with digital products and services – a process referred to as softwarization. If ‘being creative’ has developed into one of the paradigmatic architectures of power for framing the contemporary subject, then an essential component of this architecture involves its material and symbolic configuration through tools. From image editors to digital audio workstations, video editors to game engines, these modern tools are used by creatives every day, and mastering these increasingly complex technologies is now a near-compulsory pathway to creative work. Despite their ubiquity in cultural production, few have sought to theorize them in aggregate and with interdisciplinary breadth.

Java Cryptography Tools and Techniques


Free Download Java Cryptography: Tools and Techniques
English | 2023 | ASIN : B0BRHYTF1Y | 537 Pages | PDF EPUB | 8.2 MB
Over time, in our increasingly connected world, issues related to cryptography and security have increasingly become common in the development of applications and even other APIs. In this environment, Java still maintains its popularity as a language for the development and implementation of Internet applications. While Java has an established API for basic cryptography defined as part of the regular Java runtime, many things that developers generally need to do, such as producing and managing certificates, client credentials, time stamps, and secure messaging are not provided. The Legion of the Bouncy Castle Cryptography APIs, which now also include FIPS certified releases, were developed to fill a large part of this gap. That said, there is an awful lot to know, and many developers do not get the time to take a sabbatical to brush up on the right security API to use when a security related application arrives on their desk. While falling into fear and panic is always an option, we felt it might be better to provide a book, drawing on our experience, that goes beyond what is commonly available in API documentation. A book that provides some basic real world examples of how to use the APIs and address the questions developers most commonly ask and the issues developers most commonly have trouble with. One with a warm friendly cover, designed to avoid panic, and to help keep the reader focused on the idea of getting a job done. It is our aim that "Java Cryptography: Tools and Techniques" is that book.
