218,95 kr. Danmarks bedst dokumenterede iværksætterhistorie Preben og Erik Damgaard er bare 21 og 23 år, da de starter virksomheden Damgaard Data. Otte år senere omsætter de for 100 millioner kroner og har 100 medarbejdere. Alles øjne er rettet mod de to brødre. Kan de med Damgaard Data gøre Danmark til en af verdens førende it-nationer?IBM køber sig ind og lover at hjælpe med den globale ekspansion. Men intet går som planlagt. ”Fra Damgaard til Microsoft” afslører hele historien om en af Danmarks ubestridte erhvervssucceser – fra vugge til voksen. Den giver et kig ind bag scenen i en industri, der er komplet uforudsigelig, hvor strategier ikke nødvendigvis fører til succes. Men det er også en fortælling om mennesker, ambitioner og snarrådighed. Og om at gå benhårdt efter sin drøm og bygge en succesfuld virksomhed op fra bunden. De vilkår som Damgaard Data var oppe i mod, gælder i dag for alle virksomheder i alle brancher. Nu er der et navn for det: disruption. Firmaer, der ligner vindere i dag, udraderes i morgen i et samspil af egne fejl, den teknologiske udvikling og konkurrenternes nådesløse dolkestød. Damgaard Data kom helskindede igennem og endte med at blive købt for 11 milliarder. Hans Peter Bech’s bog forklarer hvordan. "Forhåbentlig kan denne bog forhindre, at andre begår de samme fejl, som vi begik." - Preben Damgaard, Investor.

Forfatteren har gravet alt frem: børsprospekter, pressemeddelelser, personaleblade, brochurer, årsberetninger, forretningspræsentationer, notesbøger og andre interne dokumenter, som offentligheden aldrig har haft kendskab til.Hans Peter Bech, cand.polit. (født 1951) har i mere end 30 år beskæftiget sig med afsætning for danske og udenlandske IT-virksomheder. Efter at have arbejdet for Damgaard Data i Tyskland, vendte han i 2001 tilbage til Danmark og stiftede konsulenthuset TBK Consult. Siden 2008 har han blogget om international forretningsudvikling.

198,95 kr. Foreword by Preben Damgaard "Building Successful Partner Channels" is a book laying out the roadmap for achieving global market leadership through independent channel partners in the software industry. The book applies the business model and business model environment frameworks developed by Alexander Osterwalder and Yves Pigneur and concludes that taking the indirect route to market adds an additional layer of complexity to our business model as we leave the control of finding, winning, making, keeping and growing happy customers to third parties. The book explains that the direct and the indirect go-to-market approach are not options we can choose freely between, independent of the nature of our business model and business model environments and it discusses when the indirect go-to-market approach is applicable and advantageous and when it is not. The book concludes that taking the indirect route to market requires that the channel is an integrated element of our product offering and value proposition. The indirect route to global market leadership requires developing and maintaining a channel partner program and the book lists all the elements of this program including the critical channel partner P&L model. The book concludes that our partner program will change substantially as we move from early stage channel building to the mature mode where most of our revenue comes from existing channel partners. The book describes the process for channel partner recruitment, and concludes that the initial process is very similar to the process of hiring top performing sales people. However, where we pay staff to perform their duties from the day they join, channels partners will have to make substantial investments before they reap the benefits of the cooperation. Channel partner recruitment is therefore initially a long process requiring substantial investments. The dynamics of channel partner recruitment changes as we move from the early mode channel development stage to the mature stage and the book recommends that we should recruit as many channel partners as we possibly can. We then let them demonstrate where they belong in the channel pyramid classifying channel partners and the book discusses how we should manage each group. A full chapter is devoted to discuss adopting the indirect channel approach at a later stage after having applied a direct approach first, introduces some simple sanity checks to verify if switching is feasible and explains how this switch can be accomplished.

- From Civil Servant to Global Business Adventurer: Henrik Bertelsen's Unexpected Journey.
198,95 kr. A Tale of Chance and Opportunity "Tumult in Mecca" follows the unexpected adventures of Henrik Bertelsen, a Danish civil servant, as he navigates the unpredictable turns of life from Copenhagen to Saudi Arabia and Indonesia. Set in 1979, this autofiction novel delves into how unforeseen opportunities can radically alter one’s path. Notable Highlights Engaging Plot: Henrik Bertelsen, an economist at the Ministry of Labour in Copenhagen, is drawn into a business venture in Saudi Arabia, navigating the complexities of Middle Eastern culture and business practices.Rich Characters: The story features a diverse cast, including Henrik’s older brother Jakob, who inadvertently involve themselves in the renovation of hospital kitchens in Saudi Arabia.Intriguing Setting: From the streets of Copenhagen to the holy city of Mecca, the novel provides a vivid depiction of contrasting worlds.Themes: Themes of serendipity, cultural clash, personal growth, and the pursuit of the good life are intricately woven into the narrative. Praise for "Tumult in Mecca" “This is a business book disguised as a historical novel, well-written and erudite. Tumult in Mecca paints a compelling picture of what kept us busy in 1979. At least for those of us looking to build a life amidst social-economic challenges, international upheaval and the rise of militant Islam, and the advent of technology changing the world forever. If this is too much for you, no worries, this book offers a tremendous read, page after page until you reach the last one, leaving you, as with any great story, wanting for more.” - Frank Meijer - ***** “An ideological debate and a whimsical adventure. The book offers a breakdown of the now-modern work-life balance, a vivid depiction of the late 1970s, and a cultural clash of epic proportions that is both entertaining and upsetting.” – Louise Trankjær, ***** “Henrik Bertelsen is a child of the ’60s who seeks to balance his ideals with his appetite for adventure. His reflections, quirky analyses, and practical approach to his work at the ministry and the project in the Middle East make for a highly entertaining narrative.” – Tine Curtis, ***** “An engaging and multifaceted narrative set in Denmark, Saudi Arabia, and Indonesia during the latter half of 1979. The story captures the cultural and business complexities the brothers face in the Middle East, highlighting the stark differences from their familiar Danish environment.” – Per Pedersen, *****

166,95 - 235,95 kr. Balladen i Mekka er historien om Aalborgdrengen Henrik Bertelsen. Handlingen starter i juli 1979, hvor Henriks liv skal til at slå nogle gevaldige koldbøtter. Verden omkring ham undergår kolossale ændringer, der åbner muligheder, men også faldgruber. Han sidder i et godt solidt job som fuldmægtig i Arbejdsministeriet med en klar karrierevej foran sig. Ved siden af underviser han på Danmarks Forvaltningshøjskole og på Københavns Universitet. Ikke fordi han er fagligt super skarp, men fordi han har været lidt heldig med sit netværk, og fordi han er en god pædagog. Henriks elever kan godt lide hans måde at undervise på. Han er faktisk populær. På privatfronten flasker tingene sig fint. Henriks ægteskab fungerer fremragende, han er i gang med at stifte familie (adoptere) og er ved at etablere bofællesskab i Nordsjælland (en ny model for villa, Volvo og vovse), som han selv er medinitiativtager til.Ud af det blå dukker der en mulighed op for at komme med i et ambitiøst erhvervsprojekt i Saudi-Arabien. Han griber chancen, og så ruller lavinen. Projektet løber løbsk og kræver mere og mere tid. Tid som han ikke har. Igen er heldet med ham, og lige som det ser sortest ud, udskrives der folketingsvalg. Aktiviteterne i hans afdeling i ministeriet går i stå, og han kan frigøres til arbejdet i Mellemøsten.Parallelt med erhvervsprojektet og indflytningen i bofællesskabet, skal han og hans kone, engelske Samantha, adoptere et barn fra Indonesien. Det indebærer, at de skal opholde sig i landet i tre uger. De ved ikke, hvornår de skal af sted, men skal være klar til at rejse med få dages varsel.Midt i virakken får Henrik tilbudt et særdeles vellønnet job som salgstrainee i et stort amerikansk computerfirma. I den retning havde han aldrig set, men arbejdet i Mellemøsten havde åbnet hans øjne for, hvad det private erhvervsliv kunne tilbyde.Forblændet af muligheden for eventyr får Henrik ikke forholdt sig til de langsigtede konsekvenser af projektet i Saudi-Arabien, og langsomt men sikkert fanger bordet. Samantha vil under ingen omstændigheder flytte til et arabisk land, og hans egne planer går da heller ikke i den retning. Igen reddes han af udefrakommende hændelser. Novemberoprøret i Mekka i 1979 sætter en stopper for projektet, og han kan trække sig ud af det uden at lade nogen i stikken. Det sker dog ikke uden drama, for han opholder sig netop i Mekka på det tidspunkt, hvor oprøret bryder ud og er tæt på at komme alvorligt i klemme.Overvejelserne om et jobskifte er en karrieremæssig koldbøtte af de helt store, der kræver grundige overvejelser, og hvor udfaldet svinger frem og tilbage. Henrik beslutter at tage springet. Umiddelbart efter rejser han og Samantha til Indonesien for at adoptere deres første barn. Adoptionen, der indebærer tre ugers eventyr i fjernøsten, fuldstændiggør den lille familie, men efterlader også en undertone af mere snævre rammer for fremtiden.
