More Information
Summary:The Insead website (www.insead.fr ) provides tiny slices of information without charging for them. An online bookshop includes academic titles and business reports. For competitiveness reports, visitors can expect to pay anything between £30 and £3,000, according to the depth of the research. Insead alumni can gain access free of charge. Visitors can also subscribe to one of the group's free e-mail newsletters, which analyse trends and techniques in online customer relations. The Tom Peters website (www.tompeters.com ) also features discussion groups, books and presentations bearing titles such as "Boss-free implementation of stuff that matters". For a walk on the lighter side of management theory, look at the Funky Business website (www.funky business.com ), run by Swedish academics Kjell Nordstrom and Jonas Ridderstrale. Under headings such as "how to make capital dance", the pair promote their idiosyncratic vision of how to build successful businesses in the knowledge-driven economy.
