"Retail has always been a dynamic industry but right now it is going through an unprecedented pace of change. Seismic economic shifts and breath-taking technological advances are changing the shopping experience faster than most retailers are able to react. Customers demand ever more exciting shopping experiences and have higher expectations of product, service, value and environment. And, as if that isn't enough to contend with, there is the multi-channel reality to get to grips with too. Any retailer that wants to stay in the game, let alone ahead of it, has to think in an entirely different way. Get it wrong, or move too slowly, and the customer will be lost forever. They'll already be onto the next big thing. Andrew Jennings is a global retail executive with four decades of leadership experience at some of the world's top stores. In his first book, Almost Is Not Good Enough, he shares his secrets on how retailers can thrive in this dynamic environment. Almost Is Not Good Enough is the up-to-date guide anyone involved with modern retail cannot afford to miss."--Front flap of dust cover

"Rettet die Olympischen Spiele, bevor es zu spät ist", so lautet die Botschaft dieses Buches. Dass in der olympischen Bewegung nicht alles mit rechten Dingen zugeht, mag mancher bereits geahnt haben, doch die Auswüchse sind in Wirklichkeit skandalöser, als die meisten sich überhaupt vorstellen können. Nachweisbar sind aktive Bestechungen von Kampfrichtern und die Vertuschung von positiven Ergebnissen bei Doping-Tests. Unzweifelhaft sind die massive Beeinflussung von Sportfunktionären und die Manipulation von Wahlen oder sportpolitischen Entscheidungen allein aus wirtschaftlichen Interessen, wobei bis zu seinem Tod Horst Dassler, der ehemalige Adidas-Chef, lange Zeit die Fäden in der Hand hielt. So verwundert es nicht, dass kritische Journalisten mundtot gemacht werden und das Internationale Olympische Komitee schon fast Qualitäten einer Geheimloge aufweist. Mit einem Wort: Es gibt genügend Beweise dafür, dass die hehren Ideale der modernen Spiele sich inzwischen zu einem olympischen Alptraum ausgewachsen haben. Es ist den Herren der Ringe wichtiger, Geld und Macht anzuhäufen, als durch fairen Sport zur Völkerverständigung beizutragen. All dies dokumentiert der preisgekrönte englische Sportjournalist Andrew Jennings in diesem fesselnden Report.

Le mythe: les Jeux Olympiques sont le plus grand festival sportif du monde; patrimoine de l'humanité, ils incarnent l'idéal d'honnêteté, de fair-play et de transparence formulé il y a près de cent ans par Pierre de Coubertin. La réalité: opacité, affairisme, corruption, tricherie. Sous la présidence de Juan Antonio Samaranch, l'olympisme officiel est devenu un business louche géré hors de tout contrôle par un "Club" sélect, le Comité international olympique. Quatre années d'enquête pour dévoiler ce que vous ne verrez pas à la télévision: le pouvoir des médias, les magouilles des sponsors, le scandale du dopage; pour dénoncer les machinations, les complicités, les compromis et les capitulations qui ont permis cette OPA sur le sport mondial; et, au terme, pour poser la question: les J.O., quel avenir?

V knize FAUL! se Andrew Jennings, přední světový investigativní sportovní novinář, zabývá fungováním organizace FIFA a odhaluje řadu nekalých praktik. Tikající časovaná bomba v bankovních záznamech FIFA. Jak byli přední sportovní funkcionáři nuceni obrátit kapsy naruby a vrátit úplatky? Co je pravdy na pověstech o zmanipulovaném hlasování výkonného výboru FIFA? Pozoruhodný případ výdajů na prezidentovu kampaň. Jak fotbaloví funkcionáři přinutili vetché starce Nelsona Mandelu a Desmonda Tutua cestovat tisíce kilometrů a podřídit se FIFA. Viceprezident FIFA, který tvrdí, že židovští rozhodčí na svou práci nestačí. Přidělování lukrativních zakázek lidem, kteří mají styky ve FIFA. Tvrdý boj o moc, kvůli němuž hrozí rozkol FIFA. Od září 2005 FIFA a její prezident Sepp Blatter tajně naléhali na švýcarský soud, aby zamezil vydání knihy FAUL!, a to s pomocí výhrůžek, že nakladatel i autor mohou zaplatit pokutu nebo skončit ve vězení. Návrh na zákaz vydání byl zamítnut a FIFA a prezident Blatter se odvolali. Proč se FIFA ze všech sil snažila zabránit, aby se kniha dostala čtenářům do rukou?

Kniha, kterou lze považovat za definitivní portrét úpadku FIFA a mužů, kteří ukradli fotbal. Ve své nejnovější knize Špinavá hra britský investigativní novinář Andrew Jennings, který proslul jako neúnavný kritik poměrů v zákulisí mezinárodního sportu, odhaluje šokující rozměry korupce a podvodů v nejvyšších patrech světového fotbalu. Své poznatky prezentoval i v prestižním pořadu televize BBC Panorama a zásadním způsobem přispěl k největšímu zemětřesení v Mezinárodní fotbalové federaci (FIFA) za více než sto let její existence. V téměř detektivní story, která by se mohla jmenovat „Blattříčku, zavírej vrátka“, Jennings rozkryl mafiánské způsoby fotbalových šéfů, podrobně popsal jejich zločiny a důkazy o nich předal americké FBI. Další vyšetřování pak vedlo k zatčení několika členů výkonného výboru FIFA a rezignaci prezidenta Seppa Blattera. Poutavé vyprávění zkušeného žurnalisty se opírá o léta rešerší i práce v terénu, při níž objevil řadu dosud nezveřejněných dokumentů.
