Accounts Receivable Management Best Practices

John G. Salek, " Accounts Receivable Management Best Practices"
Wiley(July 28, 2005)| ISBN: 0471716545 | 224 pages | PDF | 1,7 Mb

"An excellent reference tool on how to manage the accounts receivable process for any company. The use of real-life examples makes the concepts easy to understand. I recommend the book to anyone who wants to improve cash flow and reduce bad debt loss."

—Michael E. Beaulieu, Senior Vice President, Finance Cardinal Health

"Rather than simply explaining how to get the greatest return from an investment in accounts receivable, John G. Salek reveals how companies shoot themselves in the foot when management sets policies and procedures without consideration of the impact on cash flow. Accounts Receivable Management Best Practices isn't just for credit and collection professionals who often spend more time cleaning up process errors and other corporate 'garbage,' instead of managing risk. It should be required reading for C-level executives, the sales staff, operations managers, and anybody else whose job impacts the order-to-cash cycle."

—David Schmidt, Principal, A2 Resources Coauthor of Power Collecting: Automation for Effective Asset Management

"Enhancing a company's competitive profile is all about giving enough customers the right product, at the right price, at the right time. This author's real-world approach to accomplishing this goal through the prism of receivables management makes this book a must-read for those companies looking to make their mark as an organization that cares about its customers as well as their own need to produce financial results."

—Bruce C. Lynn, Managing Director The Financial Executives Consulting Group, LLC

Kevin O'Sullivan “Intermediate Spanish For Dummies"
Idea Group Reference | 2007-08-27 | ISBN: 159904630X | 405 pages | PDF | 3,5 MB

Knowledge management (KM) has been implemented in many organizations with impressive success; however, many KM initiatives fail due to a lack of understanding of operational complexities. For multinational organizations, the level of complexity increases many times over.
Strategic Knowledge Management in Multinational Organizations presents a comprehensive set of investigations of a wide range of environmental factors, both internal and external, that contribute to the key challenge of complexity in KM. These factors include culture, technology, communications, infrastructure, and learning and leadership structures. With its inclusive coverage of the salient issues, this reference publication provides libraries with a single source for the defining research on KM in multinational contexts.
