There are more courses and schools teaching entrepreneurship than ever. The major business peri- odicals, Business Week, Fortune, and The Wall Street Journal continue expanding their cov- erage of entrepreneurs and their companies. There are a number of publications that rank graduate and undergraduate entrepreneurship programs. Business plan competi- tions at the graduate and undergraduate level continue to proliferate and the prizes get larger and larger. International interest in new venture creation has grown exponential- ly. Programs in the United States and overseas have partnered to provide cross-cultural and multinational entrepreneurial courses for their students. I personally participated in one such effort between Indiana University and City University of Hong Kong. The technology enabled us to form joint ventures between students in the United States and Hong Kong for the purpose of starting businesses. It was marvelous. In this fourth edition of Entrepreneurship: Strategies and Resources, I have tried to improve upon the foundation set in the first three editions. This book is intended to be friendlier to the user, beginning with its new design and soft cover. A number of fea- tures will help make the text easier to read and understand. Dozens of new examples and minicases, called “Street Story,” have been added. International examples and applica- tions are integrated throughout the book. ORGANIZATION OF THE BOOK Entrepreneurship: Strategies and Resources is organized into three parts. Part I introduces the major themes and theory of the book. Chapter 1 describes the roles that new venture creation plays in the international economy, defines entrepreneurship, and shows how three factors—individuals, environments, and organizations—come together to create the entrepreneurial event. I also make a point of explaining that studying entrepreneur- ship cannot be done in a formulaic, by the numbers fashion.. It requires judgment. Chapter 2 sets this textbook apart from others because it casts entrepreneurial phe- nomena in terms of the predictive theory of the resource-based framework. In this chapter, I present the basic concepts and model of the resource-based theory. There are six types of resources in our theory: financial, physical, technological, human, organi- zational, and reputational. The theory says that entrepreneurs can create sustainable competitive advantage for their ventures when they possess or can acquire and control resources that are rare, valuable, hard to duplicate, and nonsubstitutable. Here I emphasize the importance of human resources, especially the entrepreneur. I then explain how these resources are a source of profit and rent for the entrepreneur, and how the new venture needs to protect these rents and profits through isolating mech- anisms and first-mover advantages. The chapter also has an appendix that introduces the basics of creativity as I believe that this is a personal resource that can be further developed in all of us. vii viii ENTREPRENEURSHIP Part II of Entrepreneurship: Strategies and Resources describes the environment for entrepreneurship. It presents the tools and techniques for analyzing business and com- petitive conditions, and for evaluating entrepreneurial opportunities. It is comparable to the strategy formulation phase of corporate strategic management. The purpose of this section is to show how the environment affects, directs, and impinges on the strategy formulation problem in new venture creation. It does this in two ways that can be expressed by the resource-based model: The environment helps determine what is rare, valuable, imitable, and substitutable and it is the source of resources that possess these four attributes. The strategy formulation problem in new venture creation can be stated as follows: What configuration of resources will provide the new firm with the best chances of achieving a competitive advantage? Chapter 3 covers the aspects of the macro- and microenvironment that affect entre- preneurship and new venture creation. I present a process model

We aim to break even on postage and will use the best method to minimise costs. One good innovation is the introduction of the “POST PLUS” satchels, which replace the old red satchels and include a tracking number. Available in 3 sizes they are 500 grams ($7.50) 3kgs ($11.50) 5kgs ($14.50) P & P. The latter 2 are perfect for larger interstate packages as anything over 500 grams even is going to cost more than $11.50. We can take a cd out of a case to reduce costs. Basically 1 cd still $2. 2cds $3 and rest as they will fit. Again Australia Post have this ludicrous notion that if a package can fit through a certain slot on a card it goes as a letter whereas if it doesn’t it is classified as a “parcel” and can cost up to 5 times as much. One day I will send a letter to the Minister for Trade as their policies are distinctly prejudicial to commerce. Out here they make massive profits but offer a very poor number of services and charge top dollar for what they do provide. Still, the mail mostly always gets there. But until ssuch times as their local monopoly remains, things won’t be much different. ----------------------------------------------- For those long term customers and anyone receiving these newsletters for the first time we have several walk in sales per year, with the next being Saturday August 25th.

  • Under-Represented Groups and Library Leadership
    Under-represented groups and library leadership Tennessee Libraries Vol 55 No 2 The Rainbow Effect -- Under-Represented Groups and Library Leadership President's Program Rosa Burnett, Director, Southwest Tennessee Community College; Murle Kenerson, Assistant Director, Tennessee State University; Thura Mack, Associate Professor, University of Tennessee Knoxville; Biddanda "Suresh" Ponnappa, Associate Dean, Director Medical Library, Quillen College of Medicine, East Tennessee State University; moderated by Kay Due, Memphis Shelby County & Information Center Abstract from the conference program: Ethnically diverse library administrators are still somewhat rare. Library leaders from under- represented ethnic groups will tell personal stories of challenge and triumph. Attendees will gain insight needed to navigate the road to leadership. Expect frank talk about mentoring, networking, and avoiding career pitfalls. The majority of the following text is a lightly edited transcript of a live recording of this program. Thura Mack's written version of her presentation is included in place of a transcript. Rosa Burnett, Director, Southwest Tennessee Community College: Kay gave us a few questions to ponder and I sort of laughed at of some of them, but I just want to start our presentation with this: "Librarianship is a career which helps communities." Just ask a librarian and they will let you know. Well, now, if you ask a community, I wonder what kind of answers will be given to that-- because when we have problems within the library or with some of the public libraries, it's those people who use the library the most that may speak up when you're really down to the wire.

  • A RESOLUTION to Honor the Memory of Country Music Legend Merle Haggard. WHEREAS, the Members of This General Assembly Were Great
    SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION NO. 754 By Senators Crowe, Overbey, Southerland, Yarbro and Representative Clemmons A RESOLUTION to honor the memory of country music legend Merle Haggard. WHEREAS, the members of this General Assembly were greatly saddened to learn of the passing of Merle Haggard, the voice of America's blue-collar working class, a founder of the Bakersfield Sound, and a fiercely independent visionary who, along with Hank Williams, influenced modern country music more than any other artist; and WHEREAS, during the course of his half-century career, Mr. Haggard recorded forty number­ one country singles and wrote some of the genre's most revered classics, which have been recorded by Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, The Byrds, Vince Gill, The Grateful Dead, and countless others; and WHEREAS, Merle Haggard so embodied country music that the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum's core exhibit, Sing Me Back Home, takes its title from a chart-topping song he released in 1968; and WHEREAS, born to Oklahoma migrants James and Flossie Haggard on April 6, 1937, in Bakersfield, California, Merle Ronald Haggard was the youngest of three children in a poor family who lived in a converted railroad car; and WHEREAS, after his father died in 1946, Merle Haggard entered a rebellious phase that resulted in his spending time in juvenile facilities and reform schools, but he also fell in love with music and began playing guitar, captivated by country artists such as Lefty Frizzell, Western Swing pioneer Bob Wills, and The Maddox Brothers and Rose;

Wesley Dennis “Country Enough” $28 Some artists don’t make it easy for themselves do they? Wesley lives somewhere like Indiana and yet sells his cds ...or rather doesn’t sell his cds...out of Canada. A great artist with a fine voice and more than a passing nod to the wonderful Mel Street. This is as good if not better than his two previous albums, “Wesley Dennis” and “Country to the Core”. The first was on Mercury and the second was an independent with the same brilliant marketing stategy he employs on his latest. But who is he to be told. Wesley has written 7 of the album’s 14 tracks and all are fine.

State government delivers many different services and touches our lives in many ways. The following pages describe the major departments and agencies that make up the executive branch of state government. These administrative divisions are directed by the governor and the governor’s appointees. The state constitution divides the powers of state government into three distinct branches—the legislative, the executive, and the judicial. The legislative authority of the state is vested in a General Assembly, and the judicial power of the state is vested in a Supreme Court and a system of other courts established by the Legislature. In the case of the executive branch, the constitution places the “supreme executive power” of the state with the governor.
