Leading-edge organizations have discovered that fun can--and does--translate into bottom line success.

Leslie Yerkes details precisely how eleven successful companies--including Southwest Airlines, Pike Place Fish, Isle of Capri Casinos, EmployEase, and Prudential--have integrated fun into the normal course of business. This new edition provides updates on how these same companies have grown, prospered, and continued to thrive--in spite of national tragedies, natural disaster, growing competition, and changing economic conditions--in part because of the culture they have created through what Yerkes calls "The Fun/Work Fusion."

Fun in Fusion Research
Author: John Sheffield
Publisher: Newnes
ISBN: 0124078613
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
This book discusses the fun side of the quest to develop fusion energy—a modern equivalent of the hunt for the Holy Grail. After more than 70 years of research, despite great progress, the goal has not been realized. Do you have to be crazy to love quests like this? Not really, but you do have to have an unshakeable optimism. Through humorous anecdotes, and accessible yet detailed scientific discussion, this book illuminates the enjoyment of scientific research through an account of fifty years working on fusion energy development. The anecdotes bring out the human side of research, in which innovative and sometimes egocentric scientists create both clever and nutty experiments. Among the many stories within are witchcraft at Harwell, shocking experiences, entertaining talks, and the wit of top scientists such as Marshall Rosenbluth. Above all the book highlights the significant advances made in developing practical fusion energy and the promise for an exciting future with the National Ignition Facility and International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor. This book will be of interest to physicists as well as other students and researchers in the scientific and wider communities. - Shows the exciting and fun aspects of science research - Author has spent 54 years working in the area, offering key insights on the history of fusion - Clear, detailed explanations of fusion energy are supplied, helping non-science readers understand the area

Management say it with fun
Author: R. Natarajan
Publisher: MJP Publisher
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 301
Book Description
Gopulu, a celebrity Tamil caricaturist, created all-time classics for about 20 years in the popular Tamil weekly Ananda Vikatan. Being pantomimes, silent jokes, they could be enjoyed in magazines of any language. With Dr. R. Natarajan’s crisp, humorous one-liners, they are transformed here as illustrated management lessons. There do exist illustrated books in the management den. But this is genetically different. While cartoons of other books depict management thoughts of an author, here a cartoonist’s silent impressions of the behaviour of people are articulated by an author from the management angle. This revival of a celebrity’s jokes of the past, infused with modern managerial bearings, will serve as a pictorial guide to practising managers and also as an effective, illustrated textbook to the students in business schools.
