Book Synopsis International Construction Management by : Igor Martek
Download or read book International Construction Management written by Igor Martek and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-07 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells you everything you need to know about international construction: the companies, their markets, the types of projects they build, how they compete and operate and how it affects us all. It paints a comprehensive portrait of an overlooked global business that generates a major portion of the GDP in every developed nation. As with any mature sector, countries make efforts to export their expertise, but the competition in construction is fierce, and the risks are many. Only the leanest and meanest survive. What, then, does it take to win? Most writing on construction focuses at the project-management level or even more narrowly at the level of technical performance. This book presents the big picture; it tells you what successful international construction companies do to stay in the game and thrive. The book examines international construction through three lenses. The first is theory. The body of existing knowledge on construction is here brought together, condensed and explained. The second are the actors. The companies that lead the way in global construction are showcased, and the features that make countries desirable hosts are appraised. Finally, what is it that firms actually do? This last part delves into the various strategic approaches taken by 60 construction firms in carving out and defending an overseas market niche. The insights provide guidance on how global construction companies develop competitive advantage and stay resilient in the face of a mercurial global economy. These lessons will be of interest to the student and manager alike.

Book Synopsis The Connectivity of Innovation in the Construction Industry by : Malena Ingemansson Havenvid
Download or read book The Connectivity of Innovation in the Construction Industry written by Malena Ingemansson Havenvid and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction industry is currently experiencing accelerating developments concerning societal demands along with project complexity, internationalization and digitalization. In an attempt to grasp the consequences of these demands on productivity and innovation, this edited book addresses how innovation is likely to take place with a more long-term perspective on the construction sector. While existing literature focuses on organizational discontinuity and fragmentation as the main reasons for the apparent lack of innovation in the industry, this book highlights the connectivity of construction actors, resources and activities as fundamental for understanding how innovation takes place.Through 15 empirically grounded chapters, the book shows how innovation is part of construction processes on various levels, including project, firm and industry, and that these innovation processes are characterized by organizational and technological connectivity over time. Written by European business management scholars, the chapters cover empirical cases and examples from both a multi-organizational and a multi-international perspective in terms of covering the viewpoints of different industry actors and the contexts of several different European countries including: Sweden, Norway, the UK, Italy, France, Hungary and Poland. By illustrating how connectivity is part of innovation processes in the creation of single-product innovations, of various innovations within and across projects, as well as a fundamental aspect of the processes in which innovations cross nations, the book provides a new angle on how to understand construction innovation and where the industry might (or needs to) be heading next. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in construction management, project management, engineering management, innovation studies, business and management studies.
Book Synopsis Marketing and Social Construction by : Chris Hackley
Download or read book Marketing and Social Construction written by Chris Hackley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-08-29 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marketing is at the centre of the business education boom: a million or more people worldwide are studying the subject at any one time. Yet despite widespread discontent with the intellectual standards in marketing, very little has changed over the past thirty years. In this ground-breaking new work, Chris Hackley presents a social-constructionist critique of popular approaches to teaching, theorising and writing about marketing. Drawing on a wide range of up-to-date European and North American studies, Dr Hackley presents his argument on two levels. First, he argues that mainstream marketing's ideologically driven curriculum and research programmes, dominated by North American tradition, reproduce business school myths about the nature of practically relevant theory and the role of professional education in management fields. Second, he suggests a broadened theoretical scope and renewed critical agenda for research, theory and teaching in marketing. Intellectually rigorous yet comprehensible, this work will be of vital importance to all those interested in the future of teaching and research in business and management.
Book Synopsis Leading with Marketing by : Brian Gallagher
Download or read book Leading with Marketing written by Brian Gallagher and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do successful architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) firms become leaders in their markets? While there is not one formula for all AEC firms, a common characteristic is effective marketing. These firms don't view marketing as an expense, but as a strategic approach to winning. Leading With Marketing embodies how an AEC firm approaches their business, their marketplace and their customers. When companies lead with marketing, they strategically choose which markets to target, what to offer, how to differentiate, how to communicate, and how to win. To truly lead with marketing, a firm's marketing strategy must be an ongoing, dynamic process. The process must enable a company to focus its resources on the right opportunities to increase profitability, while satisfying the customer needs and achieving a sustainable competitive advantage. Leading With Marketing will provide you with the insights, expertise and knowledge needed to lead with marketing.
