Описание: How would we know a good defence strategy if we saw one? The Asian Century is challenging many of the traditional assumptions at the heart of Australian defence policy and strategy. Defence scholars have risen to the challenge of these transformational times and have collectively produced a smorgasbord of alternatives for policy-makers. The problem is that these recommendations all point in very different directions. How should we evaluate these options? Adam Lockyer tackles this question and develops a novel conceptual framework for evaluating defence strategies. By doing so, this book breaks new theoretical ground and makes an important contribution to our understanding of strategy in general and defence strategy in particular. Lockyer then applies this analytical tool to the leading arguments in Australia's defence debate and finds that there is still substantial work to be done. Lockyer concludes by proposing a new Australian defence strategy for a contested Asia that would pass the test for a 'good' defence strategy. The result is essential reading for anyone interested in strategy or the future of Australian defence policy.

Автор: Schwab Название: Pigs At The Trough - Lessons From Australia`s Deacade of Corporate Greed ISBN: 1742169902 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781742169903 Издательство: Wiley Рейтинг: Цена: 17900.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The past decade has seen a period of unparalleled growth in executive remuneration. But while CEO pay exploded, shareholders looked on helplessly as some of Australia's best-known companies self-destructed. When the fall eventually came, executives were well protected. Shareholders and creditors were not so lucky.
From Telstra's enriching of Sol Trujillo to the toppling of Eddy Groves's ABC Learning Centres and the untold accounts of the billions lost by the collapsed Babcock & Brown, Allco Finance Group and MFS, Pigs at the Trough tells the story of how a generation of executives, under the supervision of well-known and respected non-executive directors, pushed all the boundaries and sometimes sailed right over them ... and got away with it.
A pacey, irreverent read but with a devastatingly serious message, Pigs at the Trough gives investors invaluable insights into how to spot the telltale signs of impending corporate collapse, and how to avoid being another victim.

Beard, Brown Brothers, Bulla Dairy, Coopers Brewery, Dymocks, Haigh's Chocolates, J.Furphy & Sons and Furphy Foundry, Samson Sadlier.
Around 70% of all Australian businesses are family owned and together they employ more than 50% of the Australian workforce. As Catherine Fritz-Kalish, Co-Founder of Global Access Partners, says, 'Family firms are the engine room of the economy - but their embodiment of values such as trust and loyalty are of even greater value to society. Whether you already run your own business or are thinking of starting one, this book offers a wealth of wisdom'.
If you own a family business or other small enterprise, author Graeme Lofts hopes this book will give you inspiration to continue to keep your business in family hands. If you work in a family business, it will give you a greater understanding of the challenges your employers face.

Автор: Harris Steve Название: The Prince and the Assassin: Australia`s First Royal Tour and Portent of World Terror ISBN: 1925556131 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781925556131 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 36470.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: The engrossing real life story of how Queen Victorias favourite son, Prince Alfred, undertook the most ambitious Royal tour, only for Australias overwhelming joy of having the first Royal on its shores jolted by his decadent behaviour, then shocked by an attempted assassination by a man trained as a priest. The British Empires youngest and most distant outpost found itself at the epicentre of a new crime and empirical fears about the first inter-continental terrorist group, a conspiracy and a lone wolf. In a resulting reign of terror extraordinary steps were taken to safeguard security with laws on treason and sedition which even the Queen felt went too far, and the would-be assassin was hastily executed in a miscarriage of justice led by opportunistic politicians. This is an extraordinary and atmospheric weaving of the stories -- some detailed for the first time -- of royal intrigue, sexual appetite, religious bigotry, patriotic vengeance, naked ambition, national security and moral panic. They are stories of royals, immigrants, archbishops, republicans and the founding fathers of Australia and issues that remain with us today. Drawing on Royal, British and Australian archives, the compelling narrative embraces a pivotal time in the evolution of Australia, and on the 150th anniversary reveals how a minute of madness rocked the country to its foundations, with a legacy which helped shape Australias history and continues to influence and challenge us today. Revelations & insights in The Prince and the Assassin: Prince Alfreds spare heir upbringing as the chosen one and prospective King of Australia; Sexually decadent royal behaviour - An historic tour which became the model for 50 subsequent royal tours to Aust; Religious bigotry, violence and death in early Aust; How a young migrant trained and destined to be a priest became an assassin; How the biggest crime in Australia shocked, shamed, terrorised and divided the country; How Henry Parkes, founder of federation, suppressed and doctored evidence, hired private spies and criminals for political advantage; Australia suppressing civil liberties, even making it a crime of treason to discuss republicanism and to not drink a toast to the Queen; Australian Catholics accused of disloyalty and an Archbishop conspiring against the Government; Australias most sensational trial, one of injustice and vengeance for a crime not on the Empires capital list; Alfred appealing for his would-be killer to not be executed; An Australian Government accused of promoting fear for political advantage and committing treason and fraud.
