Book Synopsis Management Stripped Bare by : Jo Owen
Download or read book Management Stripped Bare written by Jo Owen and published by Amacom Books. This book was released on 2003 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever noticed how all the buzzwords, trends, and "latest thinking" on management have very little to do with how things work in the real world? Seemingly every year, the management gurus dress their wisdom in the latest jargon, but it's been awhile since somebody shouted, "The emperor has no clothes!" Today, that somebody is Jo Owen, who has seen it all in his more than twenty years working with organizations of all types and sizes, including some of the world's most respected corporations. Management Stripped Bare is Owen's A-to-Z recounting of what he has learned (and now teaches) about how businesses actually operate. With dry and occasionally piercing humor, Owen examines the good, the bad, and the ugly of more than 150 universal management issues from leadership to accounting practices, performance appraisal to harassment policy, mergers & acquisitions to project management, and much more. Among his less traditional subjects are herd instincts, "-ists," blame, Mars Bars, the death of the Tea Lady (read the book!), and why attrition and stress are good. For novice and veteran managers disillusioned by blind faith in sacred cows, Jo Owen serves up the juiciest burgers in town. And while it's amazing that someone with tongue so firmly planted in cheek can speak so clearly, more impressive is the wealth of real solutions you'll be able to apply in your own work environment.

Book Synopsis Naked Project Management by : Dennis Lock
Download or read book Naked Project Management written by Dennis Lock and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Books about project management are plentiful. The best of those books are too comprehensive for the person faced for the first time with managing a small and relatively straightforward project, or for the student studying for a degree or business qualification in which project management is only one of several modules. But, at the other extreme too many of the simpler books treat project management lightly, gloss over or ignore some essential processes, and even get the facts wrong and give incorrect examples. Naked Project Management is an introductory guide to the world of project management from one of the world's most accomplished project management authors. Lock has stripped project management down to its bare facts - simplifying everything but trivializing nothing - leaving sound practical advice on how to organize and manage a small or medium sized project. The book is written in the direct jargon-free style that has become Dennis Lock’s hallmark. Everything is carefully explained and supported with clear diagrams. It covers all the essential aspect of project management in astonishingly few words and provides further instruction with an entertaining case study project that flows logically through the chapters from beginning to end. Degree and other students for whom project management is an elective or small part of their course will love this compact time-saving and reasonably priced study resource.

Download or read book Naked Finance written by David Meckin and published by Nicholas Brealey. This book was released on 2011-05-12 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most managers, the normal round of hectic schedules, tricky staff issues and impending deadlines are well within their management capabilities. It is the financial issues that give them headaches. Nobody has ever explained how to balance sales against costs, how to interpret financial reports, how to prepare a budget or even how to argue the case for the new equipment their department needs so badly. They have no idea why the company's share price keeps falling and certainly don't understand why this should result in layoffs. In fact, the whole issue of finance is a mystery. Successful management of the finances of a business requires an understanding of some key principles - and that is what NAKED FINANCE is all about. It strips away all the technical issues surrounding financial management and lays bare the principles needed to make sound financial decisions. Firstly, Meckin shows how to identify financial objectives so you know where you are going - explaining the importance of profit and cashflow, how to measure financial performance and which are the key figures to watch. He then outlines how to use financial information to understand what's going on around you, covering the format and content of financial statements and how they can be used to assess past trading performance. Finally he describes how to ensure financial control and create a financial plan so you can take control of where you are going, managing costs, sales, profit and cash flow and long-term projects. Purely and simply, NAKED FINANCE provides the skills necessary to manage a profitable business.
Book Synopsis Exploring Consensual Leadership in Higher Education by : Lynne Gornall
Download or read book Exploring Consensual Leadership in Higher Education written by Lynne Gornall and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-26 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring Consensual Leadership in Higher Education explores the idea that the nature of academic work is both creative and consensual. Higher education relationships, whether between managers, staff, learners or the public sphere, are at their most effective when rooted in partnership, teamwork, collaboration and collegiality. The term 'consensual' is used because it situates new leadership models as structures based on consent, reflecting tacit traditions in education alongside ideas of leadership in other settings, including emerging industries. The aim is to celebrate achievements, encourage engagement opportunities, and add to the problem-solving knowledge-base. However, issues and problems in participatory engagement are also considered, and the borderlines between consensus (collective assent and agreement) and 'dissensus' (widespread, serious, disagreement) are examined critically. The contributors offer a range of alternative perspectives on leadership, reflecting the diverse forms and ways of working practised in different national higher educational contexts and cultural settings. The volume incorporates a variety of approaches and points of view, including stories of leadership and change, innovation projects and case studies, key interviews and insights, and collective team writing.
