Title: Why Business People Speak Like Idiots

Subtitle: A Bullfighter's Guide

Author: Brian Fugere, Chelsea Hardaway, Jon Warshawsky

Narrator: Alan Sklar

Format: Unabridged

Length: 4 hrs and 45 mins

Language: English

Release date: 05-20-05

Publisher: Tantor Audio

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 95 votes

Genres: Business, Career Skills

Publisher's Summary:

This is not because of some evil corporate conspiracy. It's actually the result of four traps, obscurity, anonymity, hard sell, and tedium, that transform us from funny, honest, and engaging weekend people to boring business stiffs.

But for you, this epidemic of bull and boredom is a real opportunity. All those human beings who trudged to work Monday morning want something better. They don't want disclaimers, nonpromises, sugar-coated news, or canned speeches. They want someone to capture their imagination, stir their enthusiasm, and tell them the truth. And once you learn to recognize and rise above the four traps, you can be that voice they're looking for.

Grab your cape and sharpen your sword. It's time to fight the bull!

If you think you smell something at work, there's probably good reason; bull has become the official language of business. Every day, we get bombarded by an endless stream of filtered, antiseptic, jargon-filled corporate speak, all of which makes it harder to get heard, harder to be authentic, and definitely harder to have fun.

But it doesn't have to be that way. The team that brought you the Clio Award-winning Bullfighter software is back with an entertaining, bare-knuckled guide to talking straight.

This is a book for all those who want to climb the corporate ladder, but refuse to check their personality at the door.

Critic Reviews:

"One of the surprising ideas and trends that will change the way we work and live in 2005." (Fast Company)

"[A] timely, highly entertaining guide to cutting through corporatespeak and communicating effectively." (Booklist)

"The authors are consultants, and their familiarity with the subject...gives their irreverent critique a funny, knowing edge." (Publishers Weekly)

Members Reviews:

Good premise; should have been a short story

I really wanted to love this book, but I found that, like a lot of business books based on a pretty simple premise, that two or three chapters would have been sufficient. Yes, the examples are humorous, but the entire audiobook made me feel that my iPod must have hit REWIND a few times since the content sounded like I had heard it before. I got the same feeling from A Search for Excellence: read the first and last chapters, and any one of the ones between, and save yourself the tedium of the others.

Basic Message Too Simplistic

I had been hopeful that this audio book would provide some real gems but was dissappointed. The message was quite simplistic - be careful of double-speak and be wary of templates, be creative and interact with others. This book might be helpful for those who are immersed in a 'Dilbert-like' culture at work or are new to the job market.

Must read if you have a job

This book cuts right to the heart of the problem. We use jargon and bull-speak to sound more intelligent or to hide our errors. The author's tell it truthfully and give great examples of bad business speak. They distill all the garbage down to, "Be yourself and speak as you normally do."

I LOVED IT. ... best this year

This book is funny, smart, and genuinely useful. I couldn't stop the listen... I highly recommend this one. The deadpan delivery is perfect for this topic.

A Review

A nice break from more serious pursuits. Has many laugh out loud moments.

Good Content, Too Much Fluff around it

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

If you're looking for a book that covers the basic things an MBA learns to keep in mind while managing business challenges, this covers a fair amount of ground in a fairly short time. It's worth listening too if you need a run-through of the basics of business.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

The old way of speaking was to tell 'em what you're going to say, say it and tell 'em you said it. This takes that to extremes with unidentified hosts presenting 1/4 of the information, then letting the professors elucidate. Unfortunately, it's often repetitive, and the transitions are jarring. It would be good to either get straight talk from the professors or the upbeat, short-and-sweet chatter of the other narrators. The two don't go together very well.

Good Stuff!!

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The book needs an upgrade to reflect more recent changes in the business environment since the 90's.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

The review of the ABC's and paying the PRICE models. Behavioral Science history was in my view the least important or revelant.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

VERY well presented! however, a little outdated.

Was The One-Day M.B.A. worth the listening time?

Very good refresher course to regain the lost, forgotten or ignored principals of the MBA course content.

Very in-depth and valuable content!

This first book impressed me so much that I downloaded the other two books in the series and ordered the hardcopy versions from Amazon to use as study guides. It gets pretty deep and I can tell will require focused study to get a grip on but the content is laid out well which of course helps out quite a bit.

Interesting details

I think it was quite useful especially the latest updates about google's algorithm and criteria. More examples would have definitely been more helpful.

Very Good Overview

What did you love best about SEO Fundamentals?

It was clear and concise, with lots of current information. I had been out of the SEO world for a few years and wanted a primer on the current environment - this was exactly what I got. He didn't waste any time, he just got down to the useful information.

good

I learn more about SEO in 4 hours then I had in the previous 4 years of Internet research.

Out goes the 90's...In comes semantic engines...

What made the experience of listening to SEO Fundamentals the most enjoyable?

Volume of relevant information presented to reader/listener.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Google.

Any additional comments?

This was a tremendous update to what I "thought" I knew about the front and back end of SEO.

Title: What Only the CEO Can Do?

Author: Peter Drucker

Narrator: Deaver Brown

Format: Unabridged

Length: 41 mins

Language: English

Release date: 12-07-10

Publisher: Simply Media

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 15 votes

Genres: Business, Career Skills

Publisher's Summary:

This Harvard Business Review (HBR) article describes and focuses on the unique tasks only a CEO can perform. The core elements of this article were created by Peter Drucker. They were then updated and further refined by former P & G CEO, Arthur Lafley. This article and our corresponding Harvard Thoughts audio book define the importance of the CEO focusing his or her organization first on the most meaningful outsider, the customer. Then Drucker addresses the concept of What Business are You In (also see our HBR based audiobook What Business are You In? by Ted Levitt) and how this is a task only the CEO can perform. The CEO must identify the organizations core competencies and shed the non-core ones.

Lafley describes how he did this at P & G with Peter Druckers assistance by focusing on core brands for P & G to be more nimble in their marketing efforts and by spinning off secondary ones to companies such as Smuckers who added these brands to their core product lines. P & G also benefited financially from this refocusing by becoming a major Smuckers shareholder. Drucker then emphasized the second key CEO task, balancing short term against long term needs to earn sufficient present income to support investments for the future to sustain and grow the company over extended periods of time. And finally they stated that the third key CEO task was to establish clear values and core standards in an organization. They emphasized this meant the CEO must make sure these are completed understood and internalized throughout the organization, from top to bottom.

If your really looking for insight avoid this book

Would you try another book from Vixen Dorf and/or Bobby Brill?

If you clueless about PPC then this book has good general information. However, the long disclaimer you struggle through before you hear the book almost makes it not worth the listen. Very little insightful information if you know anything about PPC already.

What could Vixen Dorf have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Lose the incredibly long disclaimer from the from of your audio book. Honestly, as I waited.. and waited... And waited for your disclaimer to roll though you're lucky I listened to your book at all. Thought it was all in really poor taste and have never heard anything like it in any book before.

Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Bobby Brill?

He was fine

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

Disappointment
