When firms are doing so badly that failure seems imminent, only turnaround management can restore performance and profitability. Chief executives, directors, 'company doctors', consultants and merchant bankers (as well as investors tracking the progress of ailing businesses) can all transform their effectiveness by understanding the basic principles. The key to recovery lies in a rigorous diagnostic review followed by a stabilization programme designed to take control, overcome the immediate crisis and create cash (and a breathing-space) for building long-term success.

The leaders who are driving today’s sustainable turnarounds understand that the answers to a distressed company’s problems lie almost always within the firm itself – usually at middle manager level and below. The secret is cooperation. Drawing on interviews with top company doctors and advisers, as well as on the authors’ own experience, Leading Corporate Turnarounds explores seven key leadership and management skills required for successful turnaround, and shows why quickly gaining the buy-in and trust of all stakeholders is the key to ultimate success.

This book instructs the common person in everyday life on how to make a living – and for some, to make a fortune --- from the Internet adult industry. Anonymously and ethically. When telecommunications and Internet dot coms started failing as dot bombs in the year 2000, ordinary people continued to make a fortune quietly working at home on the Internet. One of the biggest secrets about the Internet that continues to go unpublished even today is that thousands of people, if not more, have and continue to earn a lucrative living --- with some making substantial fortunes --- working in anonymity in the privacy of their own homes and conducting these businesses in an ethical manner. It is a big secret, but moreover, it is a "dirty" big secret. This book highlights some of those success stories among these everyday folk who have managed to secure their future. Porn has been the vanguard to mainstreamize technological innovation for public consumption in recent media and telecommunications history. Such technologies have included video, 800/900 numbers, cable, world wide web, video streaming, BBS telephone lines, teleconferencing, computer animation/video graphics/graphics rendering, online financial payment systems, ecommerce. For the most part however, most of the technologies have failed to include the everyday person who have little resources to capitalize. However, that changed when porn met the Internet and world wide web. Because of the nature of the Internet and world wide web, it has been entirely possible for ordinary people with modest means and modest investment dollars to launch a business with adult web sites since the mid-1990’s until even today. The amount of investment required to start can be as low as less than $100 and be in the several hundred dollar range, without extending into the thousand dollar range --- all modest figures within the realm of possibility for most people. Moreover, the technical knowledge is within the realm of attainability for ordinary, non-programming professionals. All that is required are casual skills with an HTML editor or generator, cheap graphics software or freeware and a web hosting account. Most people are adept enough with a word processor on their personal computers, and if those skills have not already been attained, most people can be familiar enough with these software to be proficient to create adult web sites fairly quickly. This book is a practical guide on steps necessary to start and operate a successful adult web site business from home. It contains over 270 pages of detailed instructions on a money-making system that the author has proven to work from personal experience and from his network of fellow webmasters.

Lieutenant Commander John Graves and SEAL team four are sent to the Middle East in a covert operation to destroy three weapons of mass destruction stolen from the Israelis. Upon reaching their destination, only one "thermal displacement" device is found and the mission is a failure. Thousands, perhaps millions of American lives back home are at stake. Once back in the U.S., Graves is forced into the FBI, since he's the only American who has seen and handled the destructive device. He teams up with lesbian Senior Special Agent Jill Mayfield, and together they track the team of terrorists from Canada to Montana, Las Vegas, and California, following a trail of death. As their search continues, they have several run-ins with Tony Santini, head enforcer for the L.A. mob. Graves and Santini become instant enemies. Imaad, one of the terrorists, is an insane, cold-blooded killer. In the book's explosive climax, shocking events occur that bring on the final showdown between John and Jill, Imaad, and Tony. Return 2 Terror ... with Love pulls out all the stops in a thriller you won't soon forget. Born in Colorado and raised in California, David Lovett joined the Marines in 1976 as a radio operator. He volunteered for Marine Re-con, becoming a salvage diver. He still dives and is a P.A.D.I. rescue diver. Today the author is a certified home inspector and state licensed real estate broker. His hobbies are travel and anything to do with the ocean. He has fished and dove all over the world from the Red Sea to Fiji, Tahiti, Hawaii, and Mexico. He lives in Westlake Village, California.
