Book Synopsis The Single-Minded Project by : Mr Martin Price
Download or read book The Single-Minded Project written by Mr Martin Price and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Single-Minded Project offers an approach to project management that is entirely complementary to the existing methodologies; one that recognises that at its heart, the management of a project relies on the perceived choices and methods, behaviours and decision-making of its players and the freedom of action that is permitted to the project regime. It fills in the gaps where the methodology doesn’t provide any kind of response to questions such as ‘how fast should we deliver this project’ and ‘how much diligence is appropriate in our decision-making’. It recognises that performance ultimately rests on human knowledge, resolve, skill and collaboration.

Book Synopsis Monitoring for Outcomes in Community Driven Projects by : Ashis Mondal
Download or read book Monitoring for Outcomes in Community Driven Projects written by Ashis Mondal and published by Academic Foundation. This book was released on 2007 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community-Driven Development (CDD) in World Bank parlance refers to an approach that gives communities direct control over key project decisions as well as responsibility for management of investment funds. Because poor people are included as partners in decision-making and are learning as they go, the guide explains, continuous evaluation of programs is much more effective than traditional input-output-outcome reporting mechanisms. Copublished by the World Bank, this guide provides directors of such programs with lessons on monitoring and evaluation (M&E) as a management tool.
Book Synopsis Membership Based Organizations of the Poor by : Martha Chen
Download or read book Membership Based Organizations of the Poor written by Martha Chen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-05-07 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This highly topical volume, with contributions from leading experts in the field, explores a variety of questions about membership based organizations of the poor. Analyzing their success and failure and the internal and external factors that play a part, it uses studies from both developed and developing countries. Put together by a group of prestigious editors, the contributors address a range of questions, including: What structures and activities characterize MBOPs? What is meant by success and what factors account for success? What are the internal (governance structure and leadership) and external (policy environment) factors that account for success? Are these factors replicable across countries or even within countries? What are the constraints to successful MBOPs expanding, or to new ones being formed? What sort of policy environment enables the success of MBOPs and the formation of successful MBOPs? What types of institutional reforms are needed to ensure the representation of the poor through their own MBOs? This is an insightful work, that will be invaluable for students and researchers studying or working in the areas of international and development economics and development studies.

Book Synopsis Poverty Knowledge by : Alice O'Connor
Download or read book Poverty Knowledge written by Alice O'Connor and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-10 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Progressive-era "poverty warriors" cast poverty in America as a problem of unemployment, low wages, labor exploitation, and political disfranchisement. In the 1990s, policy specialists made "dependency" the issue and crafted incentives to get people off welfare. Poverty Knowledge gives the first comprehensive historical account of the thinking behind these very different views of "the poverty problem," in a century-spanning inquiry into the politics, institutions, ideologies, and social science that shaped poverty research and policy. Alice O'Connor chronicles a transformation in the study of poverty, from a reform-minded inquiry into the political economy of industrial capitalism to a detached, highly technical analysis of the demographic and behavioral characteristics of the poor. Along the way, she uncovers the origins of several controversial concepts, including the "culture of poverty" and the "underclass." She shows how such notions emerged not only from trends within the social sciences, but from the central preoccupations of twentieth-century American liberalism: economic growth, the Cold War against communism, the changing fortunes of the welfare state, and the enduring racial divide. The book details important changes in the politics and organization as well as the substance of poverty knowledge. Tracing the genesis of a still-thriving poverty research industry from its roots in the War on Poverty, it demonstrates how research agendas were subsequently influenced by an emerging obsession with welfare reform. Over the course of the twentieth century, O'Connor shows, the study of poverty became more about altering individual behavior and less about addressing structural inequality. The consequences of this steady narrowing of focus came to the fore in the 1990s, when the nation's leading poverty experts helped to end "welfare as we know it." O'Connor shows just how far they had traveled from their field's original aims.
Book Synopsis Project Management for the Creation of Organisational Value by : Ofer Zwikael
Download or read book Project Management for the Creation of Organisational Value written by Ofer Zwikael and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-01-15 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Projects and programmes are approved and funded to generate benefits. Project Management for the Creation of Organisational Value proposes a complete framework that seeks to support such an objective – from project selection and definition, through execution, and beyond implementation of deliverables until benefits are secured. Because it is preoccupied with deliverables, accepted project management practice is flawed. Project Management for the Creation of Organisational Value proposes an alternative approach, which seeks a flow of target outcomes for the organisation investing in the project. Project Management for the Creation of Organisational Value provides support for all those who play a role of leadership in projects at different levels. Senior executives, practitioners and academics will find in this book a comprehensive guide to the conduct of projects and programmes, which includes robust models, a set of consistent principles, an integrated glossary, enabling tools, illustrative examples and case studies. A companion workbook to this text for instructors and students is available online at http://extras.springer.com. The workbook illustrates project management concepts using the approach presented in this book and contains a range of exercises.
