  Latin America and North Africa: Latin American Iconography in Arabic Literature

  Tahia Khaled Gamal Abdel Nasser

  In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Latin American writers frequently traveled to North Africa and produced novels and travelogues informed by these encounters. Arab writers, in turn, have drawn upon Latin American literature, culture, and iconography. Examining direct contact between Latin America and North Africa, I turn to Latin American-themed literature from North Africa, focusing especially on Arabic literature. This chapter focuses on Egyptian writer Mohamed Makhzangi’s Laḥaẓāt gharaq jazīrat al-ḥūt (Memories of a Meltdown: An Egyptian between Moscow and Chernobyl), a memoir-cum-travelogue modeled on Gabriel García Márquez’s literary reportage in Relato de un náufrago (The Story of a Shipwrecked Sailor) and La Aventura de Miguel Littín: clandestino en Chile (Clandestine in Chile: The Adventures of Miguel Littín) and Arabic literature that draws upon Latin American literature and iconography, thus fortifying cultural ties between Latin America and North Africa.

  Insight-Driven Sales Management

  Hesham O. Dinana

  In the new VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) world that we live in, there are new rules that will reshape many of the components of sales management, from prospecting, to lead qualification, to closing and relationship management. This chapter will explore the impact of technology, data proliferation, and omni-channel customer touch points on how organizations will manage their sales process and the sales teams in the integrated online and offline worlds (O2O sales). The digital-age consumer and the digital-age sales team will have different communication needs and tools that need to be addressed by sales leaders to ensure their organizations’ success and competitiveness in this new landscape. Customer insights is the new name of the game and it needs to be developed using techniques such as content management, user experience management, performance analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. Effectively and efficiently managing the sales process and the sales practices in the digital age will be the new challenge that organizations need to face as some types of sales jobs might disappear (order takers) and new jobs will need to be developed (sales analysts and data scientists). Todays sales managers need to put science into the art of selling.
