Fourteen Years Inside the Casino Floor

"Memoirs of Robert Dollar" provides a comprehensive and firsthand look into the life and professional achievements of one of the most significant figures in the history of international commerce. Robert Dollar, widely celebrated as the "Grand Old Man of the Pacific," recounts his transformation from a Scottish immigrant to a titan of the American shipping and lumber industries. As the founder of the Dollar Steamship Lines, his writings offer unparalleled insight into the strategic expansion of trans-Pacific trade and the development of the modern merchant marine.This fourth volume captures the mature reflections of a seasoned industrialist, detailing his extensive travels across Asia and his efforts to strengthen economic ties between the United States and the Far East. The work explores the intricate logistics of managing a global fleet, the challenges of navigating international diplomacy, and Dollar's unwavering commitment to business ethics and civic duty. His observations on the geopolitical shifts of the early 20th century provide a valuable historical perspective on the rise of globalized trade.Combining personal anecdotes with rigorous business history, "Memoirs of Robert Dollar" serves as a vital record of an era defined by industrial ambition and maritime adventure.

Memoirs of Robert Dollar

For&nbsp;today's&nbsp;aspiring&nbsp;leaders,&nbsp;lessons&nbsp;in&nbsp;leadership&nbsp;from legendary Black CEOs Beginning in&nbsp;the late 1990s, a handful of&nbsp;executives&nbsp;rose to become&nbsp;some of the first Black&nbsp;CEOs&nbsp;ever to lead&nbsp;Fortune&nbsp;500&nbsp;powerhouses:&nbsp;Ken Chenault at American Express,&nbsp;Dick Parsons at Time Warner,&nbsp;John Thompson at Symantec,&nbsp;Ursula Burns at Xerox, and&nbsp;Frank Raines at Fannie Mae. In&nbsp;Trailblazers,&nbsp;organizational advisor and&nbsp;journalist&nbsp;Roger O. Crockett&nbsp;recounts the&nbsp;inspiring stories of these titans&nbsp;and&nbsp;relates&nbsp;their hard-won lessons&nbsp;for&nbsp;achieving&nbsp;greatness&nbsp;amid the stunning lack of racial equity that still plagues us today.&nbsp;These trailblazers&nbsp;share&nbsp;an&nbsp;extra&nbsp;dose of&nbsp;resolve and grit, the key to their&nbsp;success despite the&nbsp;difficulties they tackled as Black leaders-what Crockett calls the "alpha-plus" mentality.&nbsp;Trailblazers&nbsp;also&nbsp;homes in&nbsp;on a specific quality that each&nbsp;wielded&nbsp;on their path to the top-from a&nbsp;belief in the power of&nbsp;authentic identity, to&nbsp;a commitment to compromise, or&nbsp;a performance mindset-and offers readers&nbsp;guidance&nbsp;on how to&nbsp;cultivate these qualities&nbsp;in&nbsp;themselves. The&nbsp;members of this group&nbsp;have enlightening perspectives on what it takes&nbsp;for&nbsp;not just&nbsp;Black leaders&nbsp;but any leaders&nbsp;to&nbsp;make it&nbsp;today.¿Their&nbsp;voices&nbsp;are needed now more than ever.

The Autobiography

Escrito en 1913 durante la Edad Dorada de los estafadores financieros, Mi aventura con tu dinero es uno de los libros más extraños, entretenidos y reveladores que existen sobre dinero, especulación, fraude y psicología de masas. No es un libro escrito por una víctima de una estafa: es el testimonio de un estafador que conoció el juego desde dentro. Estados Unidos acababa de vivir décadas de crecimiento explosivo. Surgían fortunas inmensas en ferrocarriles, minería, petróleo e industria, mientras Wall Street y los auges mineros prometían riqueza instantánea a quienes querían creer. En ese mundo apareció George Graham Rice, maestro de la publicidad y promotor de acciones mineras bajo la sombra de la fiebre del oro, capaz de convertir rumores, titulares y esperanzas en una maquinaria para atraer el dinero del público. Las estafas cambian, pero la naturaleza humana no. Por eso este libro sigue resultando sorprendentemente moderno: una mirada directa a las promesas de enriquecimiento rápido, la manipulación bursátil y el deseo de recuperar lo perdido. Traducido al español por María Inés del Valle para Editorial Héroe, es una lectura esencial para quienes desean comprender cómo se venden las ilusiones financieras y por qué tantos siguen comprándolas.

Mi aventura con tu dinero

Behind the Scenes of the Video Game Industry explores the stories behind video game production. It investigates how behind-the-scenes narratives and making-of materials are shaped by power dynamics within the video game industry, and how they often reinforce the existing professional hierarchies by shining the spotlight on those who are already at the top. Which roles, however, are undervalued? How are crunch and other problematic work practices normalized and obscured to both the industry practitioners and the public?This book builds on concepts of paratextuality and the growing field of production studies to offer a critical framework for the analysis of industrial storytelling and reflexivity, supported by empirical case studies on art books, game awards, and promotional materials. Readers will gain insights into how these narratives influence the video game industry's status quo, making it an essential resource for understanding the hidden forces shaping game production.This book is relevant to students and scholars interested in video games, media, film, or more broadly cultural industries. It can also be helpful for video game developers and aspiring game makers by showing the impact of behind-the-scenes materials on the current status quo of the video game industry.

Behind the Scenes of the Video Game Industry

Kamal Shair's book is a classic rags to riches story: the village boy, who with determination and education, achieves business success, wealth, more wealth, and then influence and power. What makes it unusual is that it emanates from the Arab world. Rarely among Arabs have individuals from thoroughly modest backgrounds, with no access to links, networks or connections become truly global commercial players. Shair was born in a small town in what was then Transjordan and dragged himself through school (his mother was illiterate), moved to college in Beirut, then sailed off to America (Michigan and Yale) and returned to the Middle East to create a multinational corporate empire engaged in trade, construction and manufacturing. Dar al Handasah - Arabic for House of Engineers - was founded in a small flat in Beirut and today, spans the globe with offices in 37 countries. In its early years, Dar al Handasah fought off competition from established western consultancies to win contracts for prestige engineering throughout the Middle East. Eventually, its activities extended further to Europe, the United States, Africa and Asia. By not following the usual pattern of patronage and favours, Kamal Shair applied a fresh kind of ethic in an environment with a loosely-structured business ethic. In the process, he lived through and witnessed at first hand and at close quarters some of the most dramatic events of the modern Arab world. This is quite an extraordinary tale and a very original prism through which to read the turbulent post-World War II history of the Middle East. At the same time we see the growth, despite all the odds, of one of the world's great engineering and business enterprises in a narrative of epic and inspirational proportions.

Lim Siong Guan - The Best is Yet to Be provides insights into Siong Guan's past, his thoughts on the present, and his perspectives on the future, particularly on surviving and thriving in a world of "unknown unknowns".

But this is not a book about Siong Guan - it is about what he thinks readers would find useful as they contemplate their futures and strive to be the best that they can be.

Through Siong Guan's reflections, interviews with people who personally know him well, sharings from people who have worked with him, as well as media articles, you get a glimpse into Siong Guan's humble beginnings, his inspirational public service career from 1969 to 2019, and more. You will see how the future of Singapore and the people he works with have been his consistent focus and constant obsession.

This book shares how Siong Guan exceled in school and his career with a curious and searching mind, as well as a heart of empathy and service - never seeking fame or fortune, he chases opportunities not money, and seeks to serve rather than be served.

Working for Mr Lee Kuan Yew and Dr Goh Keng Swee, the powerful core of Singapore's founding leaders, Siong Guan saw first-hand how Singapore's success as a start-up nation came 
through innovation and creativity. And he believes Singapore's continued survivability requires an unswerving vision with even more innovation and creativity.

Mr Lee Kuan Yew brought Singapore from third world to first. Where does Singapore go from here?

Siong Guan digs into his 50 years of public service for pointers on where Singapore should go and how it can get there, so that Singapore can always be the home of opportunity, where "The Best is Yet to Be"!
