Becoming Hewlett Packard

Why Strategic Leadership Matters

Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard invented the model of the Silicon Valley start-up and set in motion a process of corporate becoming that made it possible for HP to transform itself six times over the 77 years since its founding in the face of sweeping technological changes that felled most of its competitors over the years. Today, HP is in the throes of a seventh transformation to secure its continued survival by splitting in two independent companies: HP Inc. and Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Based on extensive primary research conducted over more than 15 years, this book documents the differential contribution of HP's successive CEOs in sustaining the company's integral process of becoming. It uses a comprehensive strategic leadership framework to examine and explain the role of the CEO: (1) defining and executing the key tasks of strategic leadership, and (2) developing four key elements of the company's strategic leadership capability. The study of the strategic leadership of HP's successive CEOs revealed the paradox of corporate becoming, the existential situation facing successive CEOs (that justifies the book's empathic approach), and the importance of the CEO's ability to harness the company's past while also driving its future. Building on these novel insights, the book shows how the frameworks used to conceptualize the tasks of strategic leadership and the development of strategic leadership capability can serve as steps toward a dynamic theory of strategic leadership that animates an evolutionary framework of corporate becoming. This framework will be helpful for further theory development about strategic leadership and also offers practical tools for founders of new companies and CEOs and boards of directors of existing companies who intend to create, run or oversee companies built for continued relevance, longevity and greatness.

house), private investigators hired by HP or its agents called the telephone
service providers of people under investigation and falsely claimed to the service
representatives to be the person in question in order to gain access to telephone
records. This is a practice known as “pretexting.” The object was to see whether
any of the suspects had called reporters. When Hurd joined HP in April 2005

Market Analysis

Assessing Your Business Opportunities

Planning is a critical process when starting a new business or introducing a new product. Market Analysis shows readers how to execute a feasibility study for more effective planning. A step-by-step approach leads the reader through the feasibility analysis process and describes what needs to be done and how to do it. Techniques and tools used in preparing a feasibility study are emphasized and can easily be applied directly from the book to real situations. Three sample feasibility studies are included to demonstrate the application of tools in manufacturing, service, and non-profit settings. Market Analysis contains all the information needed to complete a feasibility study and a complete outline of a business plan. It covers such important topics as strategic management and planning, determining market size for a product or business, analyzing costs and returns on investment for new products and services, sources of capital for new ventures, and analysis of competition. An annotated bibliography of sources of data used for feasibility studies is included for quick reference. Market Analysis is the ideal guide for all strategic planners, market analysts, and marketing researchers. Anyone considering starting a business or launching a new product will find this practical book packed with invaluable information. Translated into Chinese!

Automating Business Modelling

A Guide to Using Logic to Represent Informal Methods and Support Reasoning

Enhances the use of enterprise models as an effective communication medium between business and technical personnel. Details the blue-print of the to-be developed business system.

Chapters 6 and 7 describe the formalisation and reasoning of the Process and
Procedural models. The automation of this modelling support framework
described in Figure 1.1 is based on manipulation of a formal logical language
DefBM that has been developed using a lightweight approach as described in
Section 3.3.5. Before we go into detail about DefBM and the automated support,
we should firstly understand the domain within which we are working: BSDM's
business models.

Modelling -- Foundation and Applications

7th European Conference, ECMFA 2011, Birmingham, UK, June 6-9, 2011, Proceedings

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th European Conference on Modelling Foundations and Applications, held in Birmingham, UK, in June 2011. The 19 revised full foundations track papers and 5 revised full applications track papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 61 submissions; also included are 5 workshop summaries and abstracts of 4 tutorials. The papers are organized in topical sections on model execution, model analysis, methodology, model management, model transformation, variability analysis and ADLs, and domain-specific modeling.

Recent years have seen a proliferation of languages for describing embedded
systems. Some of these languages have emerged from domain-specific
frameworks, and some are adaptions or extensions of more general-purpose
languages. In this paper, we focus on two widely- used standard languages: the
Architecture Analysis and Design Language (AADL) and the Systems Modeling
Language (SysML). AADL was born as an avionics-focused domain-specific
language and later ...
