Project Management FOR Dummies

Projects have been around since ancient times. Noah building the ark, Leonardo da Vinci painting the Mona Lisa, Edward Gibbon writing The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, Jonas Salk developing the polio vaccine — all projects. And, as you know, these were all masterful successes. (Well, the products were a spectacular success, even if schedules and resource budgets were drastically overr…

SharePoint 2010 for Project Management

As most of you would agree, the definition of a project varies greatly—it can be building the next space shuttle, upgrading the production line of your manufacturing facility, or just creating a new website for a customer. One common factor that holds true across these varying project types is that all of them involve multiple people interacting with a wide array of project information. This …

Transportation Management with SAP TM 9.0

Globalization has played a crucial role in the expansion of supply chains across countries and continents into ever-changing worldwide networks. Manufacturers, driven by the desire to produce cost-effective, high-quality products are continuing to extend their supply-demand chains, introducing new challenges to these networks. This seismic shift has lead to the phasing out of internal logistic…

Workforce Development

Workforce development is an overarching term used to describe a wide range of education, training and professional development activities carried out in the workplace. In this series of two books, we have endeavoured to follow the emergence of workforce development from initial concept to final application. In our first book, Workforce development: Perspective and issues, we brought together a …

Introduction to Cost and Management Accounting in a Global Business Environment

The Netherlands-based bank, ABN AMRO, was formed in 1990 when Algemene Bank Nederland merged with Amsterdam-Rotterdam Bank. Following the merger, ABN AMRO has established itself as a global bank with operations in 76 countries and territories including the United States, where the bank has a 16% share of the Midwest market. ABN AMRO’s global expansion was driven initially by mergers but more …

Practical Risk Management for the CI

Information is the lifeblood of any organization. Without good information, poor decisions are made, risks are not recognized and communicated, and valuable information is lost or stolen. Cyber risks are increasing, and these risks are seriously impacting organizations. Without good information risk management, customer trust and loyalties as well as the organization’s reputation and brand ar…

LEAN Supply Chain Planning

Today, many global supply chains in process industries are neither equipped nor orchestrated to cope effectively with the new VUCA world we are facing. VUCA—volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity—is an acronym that originated in the military back in the late 1990s and was quickly adapted to the business environment. It describes precisely the conditions of increasing variability…

A Project Management Primer or “a guide on how to make projects work”

Many projects fail because of the simplest of causes. You don’t have to be a genius to deliver a project on time, nor do you have to be steeped a mystical project management methodology to be a project manager. If an averagely competent person can’t deliver a project successfully after reading this then I will run buck naked through Times Square on my 75th birthday. See if I don’t!

Management

What does a well-run company look like? You might say that it is popular or that its sales are high, but these can be fleeting things. You could say that it has a famous brand or a prominent leader, but familiar brands and well-publicized leaders can fall from grace. You can say that a well-managed company makes a big profit, but most busi- ness experts agree that a better measure of success is…

Managing Risk and Opportunity

Our ways met in early 2010 when the World Bank Group through the IFC Corporate Governance Unit decided to embark on a training program on risk governance for board members and senior managers with the aim of promoting good risk management practices linking corporate risk-taking with strategic decision-making. In preparing this work, we combined complementary insights from the corporate governan…

Dissent on Core Beliefs

Difference, diversity, and disagreement are inevitable features of our ethical, social, and political landscape. Although difference of opinion is not a modern phenomenon, the modern world is particularly concerned with the ethical navigation of difference. What is the range of appropriate responses to deep disagreement? How should we interact with those with whom we do not see eye to eye? When…

IndustrIal SecurIty

This course was developed out of a training outline and the course Col. Arlow and I taught together in Manama, Bahrain. Pieter’s background is South African Defense Force, and he was responsible for the security of the World Cup in 2011. Dave’s background is civilian, industrial chemical, and environmental consulting. Together, we believe that this book will provide a different and practica…

International Law for Energy and the Environment

The first edition of this book, Energy Law and the Environment, was published in 2002 and was the first one in the field that considered the legal environmental imperatives for the energy sector. The first edition was written to be accessible to both lawyers and non-lawyers alike and the same theme continues in this, the second edition. However, the interest and concerns of policymakers, multin…

Grand strategy in theory and practice

It provides an overview of the ancient era of grand strategy and a detailed discussion of its philosophical, military, and economic foundations in the modern era. This study investigates these aspects through the lens of four approaches – those of historians, social scientists,…

Introduction to Credit Risk Modeling

The first edition of this book appeared eight years ago. Since then the banking industry experienced a lot of change and challenges. The most recent financial crisis which started around May 2007 and lasted in its core period until early 2009 gave rise to a lot of scepticism about whether credit risk models are appropriate to capture the true nature of risks inherent in credit portfolios in gen…

Risk Analysis in Finance and Insurance

This book deals with the notion of “risk” and is devoted to analysis of risks in finance and insurance. We will study risks associated with financial and insurance contracts, by which we understand risks to be uncertainties that may result in financial loss and affect the ability to make payments associ- ated with the corresponding contracts. Our approach to this analysis is based on the …

Law from the Tigris to the Tiber: The Writings of Raymond Westbrook

On July 23, 2009, as the preparations for this collection were nearing completion, Raymond Westbrook, the W. W. Spence Professor of Semitic Languages in the Department of Near Eastern Studies at Johns Hopkins University, passed away. We had been contemplating the production of these volumes for some time and began work on them in earnest about one year ago, spurred in part by the progression of…

Feedback in Performance Reviews 

This series of guidebooks draws on the practical knowledge that the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL®) has generated, since its inception in 1970, through its research and educational activity conducted in partnership with hundreds of thousands of managers and executives. Much of this knowledge is shared—in a way that is distinct from the typical university department, professional associ…

Integrated Business Model

Enterprises throughout the ages have always had to deal with processes of change. The invention of printing with movable type almost wholly superseded the medi- eval business model of—usually monastic—scriptoria in the space of just a few decades. Change, therefore, is not a modern phenomenon. Yet what is new is the number and growth of influencing factors that now determine business action…

Constructing Quality

How can we engage in a market relationship when the quality of the goods we want to acquire is unknown, invisible, or uncertain? This is the question addressed in this book. Each chapter focuses on situations where quality is highly uncertain: such situations provide excellent opportunities to analyze how quality is the outcome of a construction process involving producers, consumers, and marke…

Data Quality and its Impacts on Decision-Making

For all types of businesses, there is an increasing trend towards the utilization of data, as well as information that can be gathered from data. Big Data or Data Scientist are the new terms that emerged from recent developments in the field of data and information science, just to mention a couple examples. The assurance of data quality has become an integral part of information management pr…

Nation within a Nation

No other region has been more important than the South in determining the course of U.S. politics and history. This was so in 1776, and 1865, and is still true today, although in vastly different ways. The South’s relationship to the federal government has been intriguing and unique, and it vitally informs the region’s continued import to American politics, society, and culture. No other s…
