Marketing Focus: A Field Guide to Improving Marketing Operations

Marketing Focus: A Field Guide to Improving Marketing Operations

The marketing function of most organizations continues to evolve at an exceedingly rapid pace. Primarily fueled by digital technologies, tools and trends, marketing teams are faced with a growing level of complexity in the way they operate. And, with this complexity comes an overwhelming number of choices and decisions, a need for speed to stay competitive, and ultimately higher levels of stress. There's also the problem with the inherent nature of how the marketing function is perceived and the typical makeup of its contributors. Part of its allure is the seemingly endless creative possibilities available for achieving growth or making an impact, as well as the need for experimentation as a means to better influence human behavior. The combination of higher levels of performance uncertainty, open-ended possibilities for strategic aim and rapid change of consumer preferences, can often lead to chaotic and uncontrolled environments. While some chaos is welcome and even necessary, not seeking to develop a more structured, sophisticated system or continuously striving to make operational improvements is a mistake. The FOCUS framework is a collection of concepts for helping a marketing team gain better focus on doing the work that really matters by achieving greater clarity, organization, control, alignment and sustainability around activities and initiatives. Distractions could include spending too much time on administrative, low value activities, chasing too many new ideas and constantly reinventing the wheel. With more focus, distractions can be reduced. While suited primarily for teams of many, the concepts of this book can be applied to teams of any size starting at one, simply scaling the approaches as necessary. This is not a comprehensive prescription, but rather a collection of tools and techniques to help you run marketing more efficiently and effectively. Given the overwhelming number of choices and options, a focused mindset can help keep sanity.

Sky As Frontier

When the Wright brothers invented their flying machine, Americans lived in a nation of two dimensions, circumscribed by lines drawn on a conventional map. A century later, their nation existed - in fact, reigned - in three dimensions. Two million Americans ""slipped the surly bonds of earth"" daily, carried aloft by aircraft operating in every part of the world. The airplane turned the sky into a new domain of human activity, a fast-developing frontier first braved by adventurous young men. Then came the rich and the hurried, followed by just about everybody else. Until now, no one has told the story of aviation as one of frontier expansion. Aviation's frontier stage lasted a scant three decades, then vanished as flying became a settled experience. Sky as Frontier shows how commercial and military imperatives destroyed this pioneer world by routinizing flight. Along the way, Courtwright stops to consider dogfighting, barnstorming, the first air mail pilots, the development of airlines, air power during World War II, flight's impact on the environment, the troubled space frontier, and how the male-dominated aviation enterprise was domesticated and democratized. The history of American flight shows a fateful trade-off. Rationalization killed the adventure in flying but made possible rapid aerial expansion. With it came commercial growth and global military reach. In no other country did social life, business, and military operations become so intertwined with aerospace advances or have such large consequences for national power and prestige.

New Politics in the Old South is the first scholarly biography of Ernest F. “Fritz” Hollings, a key figure in South Carolina and national political developments in the second half of the twentieth century. Throughout his career Hollings was renowned for his willingness to voice unpleasant truths, as when he called for the peaceful acceptance of racial desegregation at Clemson University in 1963 and acknowledged the existence of widespread poverty and malnutrition in South Carolina in 1969. David T. Ballantyne uses Hollings’s career as a lens for examining the upheaval in southern politics and society after World War II.Hollings’s political career began in 1948, when he was elected to the South Carolina House of Representatives. He served as governor from 1959 to 1963 and then as a U.S. senator from 1966 until he retired in 2005. Ballantyne illuminates Hollings’s role in forging a “southern strategy” that helped move southern Democrats away from openly endorsing white supremacy and toward acknowledging the interests of racial minorities, though this approach was halting and reluctant at times. Unlike many southern politicians who emerged as reactionary figures during the civil rights era, Hollings adapted to the changing racial politics of the 1960s while pursuing a clear course—Vietnam War hawk, fiscal conservative, regional economic booster, and free-trade opponent.While Hollings was at times an atypical southern senator, his behavior in the 1960s and 1970s served as a model for survival as a southern Democrat. His approach to voting rights, military spending, and social and cultural issues was mirrored by many southern Democrats between the 1970s and 1990s. Hollings’s career demonstrated an alternative to hard-edged political conservatism, one that was conspicuously successful throughout his Senate tenure.

In the last two decades, more than ever before dentists must determine how to properly maintain their focus on ethics and professionalism in the face of powerful commercial pressures. While there is encouragement for ethical conduct within the dental profession, there is still relatively little assistance available to dentists and dental students for judging what conduct is ethically best in concrete situations. For many years, Dental Ethics at Chairside has served as an invaluable resource for tens of thousands of dentists and dentistry students, and this third edition of the gold standard in the field is thoroughly revised and updated. In addition to exploring ongoing and critical issues such as the patient-professional relationship, patients with compromised capacity, confidentiality, justice and the inadequacies of society's health care systems, and dentistry as a business, the third edition addresses emerging ethical issues related to conflicts of interest, dental professionalism, advertising and social media, the serious indebtedness of graduating dental students, bad outcomes and bad work, the explosion of aesthetic dentistry, acquiring new skills and new technology, the impact of the market on the professional-patient relationship, and many others. The book includes fourteen realistic cases and commentary about dilemmas in dentistry, as well as online resources for further research and study.
