On 30 September 1938 Neville Chamberlain flew back to London from his meeting at Munich with the German Chancellor, Adolf Hitler. As he paused on the aircraft steps, he held aloft the piece of paper which bore both his and the Führer's signature, the promise that Britain and Germany would never go to war with one another again. He had returned bringing 'Peace with honour - Peace for our Time.' Drawing on a wealth of original archival material, David Faber sheds new light on this extraordinary story, tracing the key incidents leading up to the meeting at Munich and its immediate aftermath: Lord Halifax's ill-fated visit to Hitler; Chamberlain's secret negotiations with Mussolini, and the Berlin scandal that rocked Hitler's régime. He takes us to Vienna, to the Sudetenland, and to Prague. In Berlin, we witness Hitler inexorably preparing for war; and in London, we watch helplessly as Chamberlain makes one supreme effort after another to appease Hitler.

Scientific Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, , language: English, abstract: Value chain management (VCM) is more than a theory. It is a strategic business approach that is helping a growing number of businesses increase their long-term competitiveness. It would be extremely difficult to achieve such competitiveness by operating as an individual business within fragmented value chain. The primary purpose of this research is to address procurement and value chain impact on organizational performance. The project provides an informed, objective perspective on VCM by demonstrating how value chains and procurement operate at the business level rather than the sector or sub-sector level. Major changes are currently taking place within procurement functions of manufacturing firms. Procurement is shifting its focus from daily purchasing activities to long term, value-adding procurement and supply chain activities. At the same time, it is responding to the challenges and opportunities of electronic procurement (e- procurement), which refers to the utilization of the internet to buy and sell products and services. The responsibilities of procurement have changed over the last few decades, procurement focused heavily on the transactional elements of the purchasing process. Procurement was accepted as a support function that provides for the sourcing needs of other departments within the organisation
