Enterprise History Through the eyes of the company MaverickThe recession in the housing market, which led to my sudden unemployment, created the perfect opportunity to start another random career, this time in the car rental business, with a company called "Executive Leasing." I stuck around for twenty-six years, while becoming one of its highest paid, and probably, most irreverent executives. The company would change its name to Enterprise Rent-a-Car, and I would be embarking on a career that would pay me more money than I ever dreamed possible, in a business I truly loved. At the peak of my career, I was raking in close to four million dollars a year while overseeing one of the company's most profitable and fun-loving operations...In Life Under the Corporate Microscope, Larry Underwood,...

In Britain, the rise of the radical Right has been expressed in the creation of a market society. "Enterprise" is the term most often used for the official encouragement of the values of this society, where competitive private ownership provides the model for both industrial and domestic life.

At the same time, the popularity of the idea of "heritage" signals the invocation of the values and achievements of a mythical and nostalgia-tinged past.Enterprise and Heritage explores these two interrelated phenomena in the context of fundamental changes in economic and political life on a global level. Using case studies, commentary, and... Less

Enduring icons of American culture, the car and the highway remain vital as auguries of adventure and discovery, and a means by which to take in the country's vast scale. Lee Friedlander is the first photographer to make the car an actual "form" for making photographs. Driving across most of the country's 50 states in an ordinary rental car, Friedlander applied the brilliantly simple conceit of deploying the sideview mirror, rearview mirror, the windshield and the side windows as a picture frame within which to record the country's eccentricities and obsessions at the turn of the century. This method allows for fascinating effects in foreshortening, and wonderfully telling juxtapositions in which steering wheels, dashboards and leatherette bump up against roadside bars, motels, churches,...

Such networks are a common occurrence in auto, grocery, apparel, computer and other industries; and competition is among enterprises rather than between individual companies. Thus, for these enterprises (global or local) to succeed, there is a need for systematically designing the enterprise-wide value delivery processes such as the order-to-delivery process, supply chain process, and new product development process. This calls for developing systematic analysis methodologies for evaluating the performance of value delivering processes. Analysis of Manufacturing Enterprises fills this vital need. ... Less

Whether a group of engineers is developing new cars, software applications, aerospace equipment, kitchen appliances, controls, sensors, or any of hundreds of different items, the process they follow is pretty much the same. Except in one company -- Toyota, perhaps the most innovative and highly respected car company on the planet. What is most startling is that Toyota s product development engineers are four times as productive as their counterparts in other companies, according to a study by the National Center for Manufacturing Sciences. Most follow a linear process in developing new products. Toyota's engineers do not. As this book reveals and explains, Toyota's development engineers rely on a development paradigm that is totally different than that found in the West. Companies that... Less

This is an ode to that risk-taking breed of Americans better known as entrepreneurs . . .
