Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling authors of Sprint comes “a unique and engaging read about a proven habit framework [that] readers can apply to each day” (Insider, Best Books to Form New Habits). “If you want to achieve more (without going nuts), read this book.”—Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit Nobody ever looked at an empty calendar and said, "The best way to spend this time is by cramming it full of meetings!" or got to work in the morning and thought, Today I'll spend hours on Facebook! Yet that's exactly what we do. Why? In a world where information refreshes endlessly and the workday feels like a race to react to other people's priorities faster, frazzled and distracted has become our default position. But what if the exhaustion of constant busyness wasn't mandatory? What if you could step off the hamster wheel and start taking control of your time and attention? That's what this book is about. As creators of Google Ventures' renowned "design sprint," Jake and John have helped hundreds of teams solve important problems by changing how they work. Building on the success of these sprints and their experience designing ubiquitous tech products from Gmail to YouTube, they spent years experimenting with their own habits and routines, looking for ways to help people optimize their energy, focus, and time. Now they've packaged the most effective tactics into a four-step daily framework that anyone can use to systematically design their days. Make Time is not a one-size-fits-all formula. Instead, it offers a customizable menu of bite-size tips and strategies that can be tailored to individual habits and lifestyles. Make Time isn't about productivity, or checking off more to-dos. Nor does it propose unrealistic solutions like throwing out your smartphone or swearing off social media. Making time isn't about radically overhauling your lifestyle; it's about making small shifts in your environment to liberate yourself from constant busyness and distraction. A must-read for anyone who has ever thought, If only there were more hours in the day..., Make Time will help you stop passively reacting to the demands of the modern world and start intentionally making time for the things that matter.

Book Synopsis Open Knowledge Institutions by : Lucy Montgomery
Download or read book Open Knowledge Institutions written by Lucy Montgomery and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The future of the university as an open knowledge institution that institutionalizes diversity and contributes to a common resource of knowledge: a manifesto. In this book, a diverse group of authors—including open access pioneers, science communicators, scholars, researchers, and university administrators—offer a bold proposition: universities should become open knowledge institutions, acting with principles of openness at their center and working across boundaries and with broad communities to generate shared knowledge resources for the benefit of humanity. Calling on universities to adopt transparent protocols for the creation, use, and governance of these resources, the authors draw on cutting-edge theoretical work, offer real-world case studies, and outline ways to assess universities’ attempts to achieve openness. Digital technologies have already brought about dramatic changes in knowledge format and accessibility. The book describes further shifts that open knowledge institutions must make as they move away from closed processes for verifying expert knowledge and toward careful, mediated approaches to sharing it with wider publics. It examines these changes in terms of diversity, coordination, and communication; discusses policy principles that lay out paths for universities to become fully fledged open knowledge institutions; and suggests ways that openness can be introduced into existing rankings and metrics. Case studies—including Wikipedia, the Library Publishing Coalition, Creative Commons, and Open and Library Access—illustrate key processes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like football evokes Texas in Friday Night Lights, so does the speed and drama of sprinting provide a unique view into Jamaica—home to the mighty Usain Bolt and the fastest runners in the world. Beijing 2008: Usain Bolt slows down as he approaches the finish line of the the 100-meter finals. He beats his chest, well ahead of his nearest rival, his face filled with the euphoria of a young man utterly in thrall to his extraordinary physical talent. It is one of the greatest moments in sports history, and it is just the beginning. Of the ten fastest 100-meter times in history, eight belong to Jamaicans. How is it that a small Caribbean island has come to almost totally dominate the men’s and women’s sprint events? The Bolt Supremacy opens the doors to a community where sprinting permeates conversations and interactions; where the high school championships are watched by 35,000 screaming fans; where identity, success and status are forged on the track, and where making it is a pass to a world of adoration and lucrative contracts. In such a society there can be the incentive for some to cheat. There are those who attribute Jamaican success to something beyond talent and hard work. Award-winning writer Richard Moore doesn’t shy away from difficult questions as he travels the length of this beguiling country speaking to anti-doping agencies, scientists and skeptics as well as to coaches, gurus, superstar athletes and the young guns desperate to become the next big thing. Peeling back the layers, Moore finally reveals the secrets of Usain Bolt and the Jamaican sprint factory.

Book Synopsis Transformation Sprint by : Haydn Shaughnessy
Download or read book Transformation Sprint written by Haydn Shaughnessy and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-25 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital transformation will be the words on most people's lips during 2021, as the world looks to ameliorate the impact of COVID but transforming is notoriously difficult to get right and failure rates run at the 80% mark. At last, there is a method to help you through the challenging times ahead. Transformation Sprint brings agile thinking to the process of digital transformation planning and design.To date, most transformations have been built out using traditional methods. Ironically. That means the route companies choose when they want to be agile, is mapped out in a non-agile way. Transformation Sprint gives you a way round this transformation paradox. It is a six step method that embraces agile thinking and practices and applies them to the problem of transformation design and execution. Transformation Sprint allows you to start your journey in an agile way and in doing so radically improves the chances of success."a fantastic, expert guide for how to get your team to deliver a compelling vision, with a clear, achievable plan. I wish I had this 20 years ago." Hugh Hessing, former COO, Aviva PlcChange has always been difficult but more so now than ever, as businesses scramble to understand the impact of COVID19 on their revenues and strategies. Policy makers meanwhile are facing a once-in-a-lifetime challenge. How will businesses and governments go about making the critical changes needed? This step-by-step guide to designing good transformations and fixing broken ones is a bible for people who work in transformation or are affected by sudden events that derail work in progress. Whether you are an agile coach, agile leader, project manager or senior decision maker this book will teach you a four week fix to any significant problem you face. Use Transformation Sprints not only to solve big problems but also to upskill yourself and prepare for a better career. Transformation Sprints takes the principle of rapid momentum from the agile world and applies it to big problems. It breaks down the process of resetting a major transformation into six main areas but focuses primarily on three: perspectives, playback and prioritisation, the three Ps of successful change. Whether you are implementing a standardised framework such as SAFe or you are following the Spotify model, launching a digital transformation or find yourself in the middle of any kind of change program, you are going to enter stormy waters. The chances of your change-by-design plan actually working are statistically very low and when things go wrong they go wrong in very complex ways. Transformation Sprint is a method for simplifying complexity and taking back control of a company's future."Organisational change is hard in its own right, only compounded by the fact that every organisation is unique and has a unique journey ahead of them. Yet across them all, there is a certain rhythm or cadence that underpins every journey. What Fin and Haydn have managed to do with Transformation Sprint is to highlight all the major touchpoints along this journey. There is something in this book for everyone, be they a business leader looking to understand the journey ahead of them, or a business consultant looking to see how best to help their clients."EVAN LEYBOURN, CEO and Co-Founder, Business Agility Institute.
