Adman Vs. Chomsky
“It is certainly interesting to draw up recommendations as to how the advertising industry should abandon its current role in favor of a socially useful one.”
Dr. Noam Chomsky
“A thoroughly captivating look into marketing, the history, the tools, strategic frameworks and the changes that are happening to the industry, along with insightful recommendations on how to move forward. Peppered with delightful anecdotes, psychological insight and case studies, this is a MUST-READ book to anyone interested in Marketing. It is the art of how 60 seconds can still transform a business and society.”
Muna AbuSulayman, International development expert and a prominent media personality
“We are in an industry that lost its way. An industry that is exchanging the power of affecting culture, for short-term profits. Ahmad, in his book, reminds us of the intellectual prowess the ad industry once enjoyed. In the process, he’s debating the most intellectual human alive!”
George Maktabi, Group CEO, Webedia Arabia
“At a time when the advertising industry is questioning its own meaning, role, and purpose, “Adman” calls for authentic, constructive self-reflection instead of fruitless navel-gazing. In simple, personal yet powerful terms, Ahmad Abu Zannad takes a stand, deconstructing clichés and confronting harsh truths to proudly reclaim advertising’s unique place in the world.”
Nathalie Bontems, Former GM and head of editorial publishing, MediaQuest
“Yes, the average person is being exposed to 6,000–10,000 ads per day… Now, imagine living in world full of ads made by individuals with less talent and less integrity, well, this is where the industry is heading, unless the advice in this book is pursued … What an insightful read and what an inspiring effort!”

Emirates: Nothing Is Impossible
The United Arab Emirates represent an almost unique political, social and cultural reality in the Middle East: a crossroads of people, ideas, technologies and trade exchanges. They are the new center of world business, but many talk about them and few really know them.
This book describes the Emirates through history, today's reality and the dynamics that animate business and everyday life, allowing anyone to understand every secret beyond stereotypes and false myths.
A handbook to get oriented between local traditions and etiquette, useful both to those who are interested in the emirates for business reasons, and to those who want to discover the country as a simple visitor.
2021 will be not only the year of Expo Dubai, but also the fiftieth anniversary of the Emirati Foundation, two fundamental events from which Giovanni Bozzetti starts to show how the United Arab Emirates are now a hub, a central axis of global geopolitics and the cradle of a culture that has been able to fruitfully cross tradition and modernity.
It is no coincidence that the country's semi-official motto reads “Nothing is impossible”.
The Emirates look to the future with confidence. And thanks to Bozzetti – who as a man of the institutions and entrepreneur, spends many days a year there, doing business and making relationships and friendships – we too will be able to look at the Emirates in a new perspective.

Symbiosis In Hospitality Management
Symbiosis in nature is the interaction between two distinct species looking to forge closer long-term relationships. There are three types of interactions; “Mutualism” (honey bees and flowers for example, where both species benefit), “Commensalism” (A bird’s nest on a tree for example, where one species benefits whilst the other is not harmed) and “Parasitism” (humans and mosquitoes for example, where one species benefits and the other is harmed). Symbiotic, human to human interactions seek to form closer long-term relationships based on “Mutualism”, the type of interaction where there is mutual benefit. In the business context, symbiosis happens when key stakeholders collaborate as true partners (not adversaries) for mutual benefit. Assets exist to provide value to the organization and its stakeholders. The hotel asset owner through his representative interacts with the hotel brand operator to create value; find improvements, find opportunities. This book primarily looks at hospitality management, key relationships and the complex operational dynamics between two key stakeholders; hotel asset owners and their branded hotel operators focusing on five key principles and a symbiotic leadership approach as a key enabler. There is a lot of room for improvement and it is this crucial relationship that is examined. This guidebook has been written for hotel brand operators, hotel asset owners and their representatives who are managing, overseeing or monitoring a business venture for themselves or on behalf of others. It is also a valuable guide for students of hospitality as well as the curious layman – anyone who has stayed in a hotel.

The Handbook Of Business Essentials - Middle East Edition
The demands of today's fast-paced world have made it increasingly challenging for educators in higher education. Conventional teaching materials are continuously proving outdated due to their inflexibility and lack of consideration for diverse classrooms. Educators have struggled to find concise yet thorough, matter-of-fact content for teaching purposes. The solution is usually a scattershot collection of information from various sources—a particular difficulty for students whose English is a second language. Due to language barriers, innuendo, and lingo, these students can struggle with varying methods of information representation, ultimately finding it difficult to adjust to the expected pace of study.
Within this challenge lies an opportunity to consolidate individual research, experience, and efforts to unify course materials better suited to the aforementioned audience. Therefore, The Handbook of Business Essentials - Middle East Edition provides a comprehensive look at the latest management theories and business strategies in a concise yet thorough, easy-to-read context particularly adjusted for non-native English speakers. It also caters to the target student audience by providing real-world examples from the Middle East, which they can better understand and relate to. The book includes a full Arabic translation, as well as a glossary of translated terminology.

In this stimulating and authoritative study, Zafar Siddiqi – who has launched and run four news channels across three continents – discusses the profound implications of this new are. Aimed at entrepreneurs, media students, industry insiders and anyone interested in TV news and its effect on humanity, it serves as a step-by-step guide for launching a news channel in the digital age.
They Say That Revolutions Do Not Come With A Manual. This One Does.
‘If you think the digital revolution in news spells the end of the 24-hour TV channel, read this book and think again.’

Spare Part

But the work is bigger than anyone, as countries are unable to pay their debts, and companies declare bankruptcy. It is work, perhaps there is a shortage of spare parts.
If we feel our weakness and seek the help of our Creator, then we have found the causes and the journey of success has begun, God willing, for He is the one who drives water to the dead country, and facilitates the causes for which we run after every day.
Relying on God is strength, determination, and courage. You are one of the billions of beings who are given sustenance every day. If you are determined to succeed, look for what you lack.AED70.00AED 56.00 -
