Download or read book Leading and Managing Strategic Suppliers written by Richard Moxham and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides practical guidance on the knowledge and skills required for managers whose role involves the management of the relationship with and the performance of strategically important suppliers. Strategic suppliers provide critical products and services to their clients. In a production environment, if the supply chain for critical components breaks down and delivery dates are missed, the production line may stop. If an IT supplier fails to deliver key system development projects on time, the implications for the business can be catastrophic. With the growth of outsourcing, where entire business functions are delegated to a supplier, the dependency on them is further increased; with offshoring there are additional complexities. An organization’s ability to manage its strategic supplier base effectively is central to its performance, competitiveness, and future success. This book provides practical guidance on the knowledge and skills required for managers whose role involves the management of the relationship with and the performance of strategically important suppliers. Although the focus is on the management of suppliers during the live relationship, the approach is holistic as the entire supplier management process is discussed in detail using a Supplier Lifecycle model. There are five stages—identify the business requirement, research the supply market, carry out procurement and supplier selection, integrate and transition to the new supplier and their services, and manage the delivery of the products and services for the contracted period.

Book excerpt: Being obsessed with positive change and ideas can propel us to extraordinary achievements and can be a fantastic positive driver of change. In the age of AI wired consumers with irrationally high demands, we need to be obsessed with creating smooth, differentiated, relevant, exciting customer experiences and frictionless customer services. Any of those interactions should be driven by customer data - the pulse of every customer’s unique heartbeat, and an organisation that has adopted new methodologies, processes, and technology platforms. In Obsessed, we demystify the complex world of data and sales and marketing technology. We answer questions like: How do you build a data culture and strategy? How can you be more intentional about the technology foundation you choose to improve your marketing and sales engine across the customer lifecycle. How do you create an obsession for the right metrics that focus on value? How do you infuse Artifical Intelligence capabilities into your organization? Can you see GDPR as an enabler? Finally, we need a cultural paradigm shift in dealing with marketing technology and applying it to marketing and sales scenarios. An obsession with long term thinking and customer relationships based on value rather than short term. And that’s when you truly start rebooting your revenue engine. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Marc Bresseel started his professional career at IBM and subsequently grew further while at Microsoft.

This book was released on 2019-06-30 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why you need this PMP guide: • Coverage of the 100% of the exam content • Lots of figures and tables for faster preparation • ITTO-made-easy with diagrams and built-in text • Simple explanations for difficult concepts • Synopsis and formulas section … for reference before the PMP exam • Easy-to-follow layout • 400+ sample questions with detailed explanations • Full-length practice exam • Tips for practical project management • How-to for Microsoft Project (MPP) application This book is a must-have for those preparing for PMP certification. It is different than existing books because we believe that PMP preparation can be quick and efficient. We have read the existing books and taken the PMP exam and we have found that most books contain unnecessary content. • Reduce your preparation time: There are several books in the market that have pages of painful and irrelevant text that would just be a waste of your time. This book has text that is concise and relevant for the exam. • Figures and tables: There are 200+ figures and tables in the book. When text is needed to explain the figure, the text is embedded into the figure, rather than forcing you to read long paragraphs and pages of commentary to find relevant material. • Personalized, conversational style: When possible, we use conversational style to make for easier reading. • Active learning: We believe that learning is best when the reader is involved (instead of doing a show and tell). Wherever applicable (e.g. for schedule, cost, quality, risk, procurement), there are workbook-style exercises. • Examples: You will find lots of examples followed by its underlying concept or generalized step-by-step procedure. This sequence makes it easier to understand concepts. REVIEW FROM CONTACT 1: I have studied various PMP guides and tutorials in the market. But this book is different, stands outs and would be the best companion guide to the PMBOK. Difficult concepts are presented in a style that is easy to follow. The content is concise and supported by illustrative figures and tables. This will save you from wasting your time on irrelevant or copious content. In my opinion, this is the ONLY book you will need to pass the PMP exam. Other printed books and online sites have questions that are easier than the PMP exam and some wrong and answers and explanations. The 400+ questions are at the same level of rigor as you will find in the PMP exam. I wish I had this guide when I prepared for the PMP exam. - Andrew Anderson, PMP, Los Angeles, CA

Download or read book Driving Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion written by Kristina Kohl and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Navigating the volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA) characterizing the business world in the 21st century requires a new paradigm focused on an integrated bottom line – planet, people, and profit (PPP). Global trends include resource scarcity and growing inequities in income, wealth, education, and healthcare. Stakeholders are demanding that organizations address systemic barriers to promote justice and equity within organizations and across broader social systems. Transformational change requires leadership to analyze internal and external systems through a social and environmental justice lens. Despite a growing focus on justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion, the imbalance of power remains within our institutions, organizations, and social systems. To move the needle, leaders can turn to Driving Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, which explains developing a North Star vision and creating a strategy to redesign organizational process and systems, as well as leveraging tools for data-driven decision-making. It presents a framework to build an inclusive organization as well as a model to engage and support senior and middle management beginning the process of capacity building and systemic change. By layering in AI and other technologies to support data-driven decision-making, the book guides leaders in navigating their organization’s journey along the maturity continuum to achieve their North Star vision of becoming a just and equitable organization. The book also helps managers to Assess ecosystems and organizational systems that justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion impact Take a deeper dive into transformational and operational components to gain insights on the deep systemic realignment of the North Star vision Identify and engage with diverse stakeholders to gain perspective and understand issues crucial for transformative change Leverage people-centered design to create a process promoting diversity of voices and to better align outcomes with shared organizational vision Use data to drive decision-making and reduce bias by removing intuition from the decision-making process Leverage the book's frameworks to drive collaborative systemic change Adapt insights highlighted in multiple interviews with DEI practitioners Benefit from lessons learned and best practices featured in the book's case studies This book features a primer, which is a quick reference guide to key terms, concepts, and definitions. It helps to define justice, equity, diversity, inclusion, and other key terms, such as unconscious bias, stereotypes, and microaggressions. It also features a toolkit, which includes checklists to help managers lead organizations to realize their own North Star vision.
