Recommendation

Amir Hartman and John Sifonis present a series of principles and techniques to help you compete in the age of E-commerce. This levelheaded book is directed toward CEOs and top executives who are serious about conducting Internet business. The authors emphasize the four pillars of net readiness: leadership, governance, competencies and technology. They tell you how to strategize through deft administration, using the proper controls, knowledge and technical skills. The book presents examples of companies that have succeeded in E-business, as well as those that have failed. The lists, charts and questions will help you determine your own net-readiness. While the book emphasizes the need for speed, it avoids the quick, "single-fix approach" of other Internet books. getabstract recommends this solid manual to E-entrepreneurs.
